Hi,
I am Gale Renz, owner of Dynamite Great Danes and we are glad to welcome
you to our website. My husband (John) and I have been Great Dane breeders
for about seventeen years. We had them as pets before that and became very
interested in breeding a line of companions that would be all that a Dane
could be. Included in this philosophy is a desire to breed Great Danes that
live a long and prosperous life, similar to Great Danes from good German
foundation stock, which can live from twelve to fourteen years.
Currently, the life expectancy of a Dane bred in the U.S. is somewhat lower.
Our Danes are averaging a lifespan of ten to twelve years at this time.
A beautiful first litter for Thelma &
True Blue was born on July 7, 2008. There are 12 vibrant puppies in this
litter. There are three black females with white markings, one mantle female,
one very dark merle and one lighter solid merle female, as well as one harlequin
female in this colorful litter! Thelma is a wonderfully calm and contented
first time mommy and is taking good care of her new babiesJ The litter album
for this litter are HERE.
We will add photos to this album as the babies grow! There are several puppies
reserved from this litter and there are also several puppies available for
adoption.

We always maintain an active reservation
list to insure that we have committed, prescreened forever families for
our Dynamite Dane babies! We are currently taking reservations for our
summer & fall 2008 litters. Please call Gale or email for information
on placement, availability, and reservations. Email me at momrenz@gmail.com
or call (712) 647-2973. Best time to call to visit is on the weekends
or between 6-9 PM CST during the week. You are always welcome to leave
a message and your call will be returned as soon as is possible. Saturday
visits are always encouraged and welcomed. We will be glad to schedule
a time to have you meet our danes in person!
"I
love it here...I really am a lap dog..."
Who we are
We are very dedicated Great Dane breeders from Iowa and are raising our
dogs holistically and with lots of love to ensure their best possible start
in life. John and I raise all of our breeding stock from pups so we can
assist in their development, training and overall comprehension to
ensure a sound temperament. We are located on acreage in the Loess Hills
of Iowa and our Great Danes are pasture dwellers, as opposed to being confined
to kennel runs. Of course, they have kennels as well, but with the room
to run, they get plenty of exercise and build greater muscular development.
This is very important as Great Danes are so laid back in temperament, they
could easily become couch potatoes, one and all!
Comments from a buyer of one of our puppies...
Hi Gale, I took some pictures of our Great Dane Zeus, thought you might
like to see our "king". He is such a doll. We all love him, and he is
truly my best friend. I cannot express to you in words what an important
member of the family he is. He believes he is a "lap dog" and actually
sits on the couch, his feet on the floor, like a person, and watches t.v.
He is just the best dog we have ever had. Thank you for your honesty and
assistance in picking the right pup for us. You couldn't have chosen a
better great dane for our family. Amy
Hi Gale, did I ever email you my
website for us? It's www.ranjinsingh.com
... there are some great photos of Yampa! This last episode was very Yampa
heavy...so we will be sure to get you the copy when all is said and done!
We are going back on Access Hollywood too...we are doing the taping this
wed and then I'll let you know when it will air.
Just looked at your website...that True
Blue is a gorgeous amazing looking dog Gale! Jeez! I wish I were in a
position to get a puppy from that upcoming litter! But alas, I have my
hands more than full playing stage mom to my Yampa right now! :)
