DAINWOOD GREAT DANES

How our life with Great Danes began

Not sure exactly when it happened but around 1974/75 Barry & I made a decision to bring a

large dog in our lives. Our respective parents had owned dogs of various breeds for as long as I can remember, non of which caught our attention as much as large breeds like Great Danes & Irish Wolfhounds. We set out to with the intentions of visiting breeders and doing a bit more research before committing ourselves. However, after seeing an advertisement in our local paper, our first port of call was probably the one we should have avoided.

Goodbye any ideas of Irish Wolfhounds - Hello the legend that was Simon.

I  hope to eventually share all my history and photos with you but with all the animals to see to plus three part time jobs, time is so tight at the moment.

Where are we from?

We grew up and lived most of our lives in Cheshire: before re-locating to Retford in 2002 Nottinghamshire. DN22 0RN - CONTACT US

After moving from Cheshire to Retford in August 2002 when we took over Greenfields Boarding Kennels & Cattery. We resumed our Great Dane breeding program which I am pleased to say is producing some fabulous puppies. We also branched out into Sport Horses, an exciting and rewarding venture, which sadly due to the recession has meant all future plans have been shelved.

If you are thinking about being owned by a Great Dane, we and our extended family would love to play a part in making that decision .

Visitors are always welcome (by appointment), and we will do our best to answer any questions that you may have or perhaps you just want to meet a few Danes.
