We are so proud to share that the long-awaited Lexie and Gage babies are finally here!

Lexie is a rare chocolate pie brindle who carries the gene for blue and tan point. Daddy is our massive, strongly structured Gage—our dream dog: goofy, lovable, a total couch potato, and completely devoted to his family. This pairing is one we have looked forward to for a long time.

As breeders for 20 years, we know the genetics and the hands-on care required to raise well-rounded, trusting, happy, and well-trained Great Danes. We do not post the birth or market a new litter the moment the puppies arrive, as many breeders do. Instead, I move into the “Puppy Palace” with Mom and all the wee ones for the first week. With our camera system, we watch them 24/7, which also lets us observe their emerging personalities and how they interact with their littermates.

Our new litter is now 1½ weeks old—a litter of 13! The time we spend with each baby is quite extraordinary. Caring for them is simply what we do. Right now we are busy giving them the best possible start with Early Neurological Stimulation, scent training, and endless snuggling to build a strong human-puppy bond. Each one is already unique and special.

If you are serious about possibly joining our Dane-owner family and would like an early video preview or more information about these darlings, please call or message us. We are confident there is one special puppy here for you.

Also we wanted to share that the Leisel/Reese litter has all found loving exceptional homes. We make our family selections very carefully as these babies really are our kiddos. We wish these new families a long lifetime of happiness that only a Great Dane can teach you.

Just a preview of some very special sweetness at Allen’s Ridge Ranch!

Nap time 💤

Nothing like the fall season at ARR

I literally woke up to this image of Felicity standing in the dewy ivy just outside the front door at 7:00 am as the morning sun filters and prisms through the trees. She had gotten out of the pasture. I could not even be mad at her when she gave me a true photo like this!!!!
