Hello, we are located in central California which is a short distance from Yosemite National Park. We have a nice little "ole rancho" that is filled with all types of critters.

One of my main joy was having my AKC 16 year old Dane (Sampson Sir Riley) live with me for 16 years. He passed on to wait for me to join him, March 28, 2003.

We currently showed our Dane Nat/Int Ch "Sir Samuel de Suenos" who has finished his title and is retired from the show ring along with Nat/Int Ch "Winterlochen Divine Dream". We are consistently winning in the show rings in California. Our Up and coming Star Bitch and Dog are “ JGD Dreamer’s Queen Dre’na” and “JGD Dreamer’s King Drako” who are both from our own Nat/Int CH Winterlochen Divine Dream aka "Dreamer." Dreamer is known for her movement and soundness along with her sweet disposition! I train all of our Show Danes and also train for others. Nat/Int Ch Gilhams JGD Mystic in Motion, "Misty" and Int/CH “Wolke’s JGD Incandescent Day’la” are two of our other winning Great Dane bitches.

Nat/Int Ch Fyrehouse JGD Smokin’ Cinder (Dalmatian) has been doing awesome in showing!

Watch in the ring for Int/CH "Backachers Fast N Furious" (Falco) & INT/CH “Leelands JGD Law N’ Order” (Justice) our German Shepherds.

I have been involved in animals all of my life having been raised on a ranch in California with Danes, Dobermans, German Shepherds, horses, pigs and all farm life. From working on a large horse operation to assisting vets, I have had a lot of hands-on experience with all types of animals.

I was showing Dobermans back in the 1980’s until entering law enforcement which, unfortunately, demanded all of my time. After being injured in the line of duty, I have been forced to medically retire. Now, with extra time on my hands what better to do than show and raise high quality Great Danes.

We love our Danes. They are our children and share everything with us.There are times, though, that we have difficulty finding sitting room in the living area of our home as all the couches are taken (by our Danes of course!).

We do have a strict contract that covers the placing of our puppies. We not only care where they go but, how they are cared for their entire lives. All puppies have their dew-claws removed, receive age-appropriate shots and are wormed by a licensed veterinarian/tech. All of our puppies are vet-checked before leaving our home. We crop our Great Danes ears and this is optional for puppy buyers if they desire cropped or to be left natural. We "imprint" all of our animals starting at an early age, resulting in the puppies being used to all the new things in life such as children, noise, touch, etc.

We also inform all new owners of the feeding requirements of the Great Dane and work closely with the buyer throughout the life of the dog. Responsibility is required with such a noble, loving breed. We breed only to achieve the correct Dane; Health, Confirmation and Temperament and longevity in the pedigree. Feeding and proper care for a Dane is vitally important. I did use herbs and natural supplements to attain Sams' 16 years! He received massage therapy and essential oils. We must be doing something right as we also have a 42 year old Quarter/Morgan horse "Chico" and a 17 year old AKC Doberman Spayed Bitch that was whelped from a breeding I did from my bitch "Romarhaven First Star" (call name - Precious). (JD my 17 year old Dobie bitch passed on) Sept 14, 2004.

We train and handle (showing) all breeds. Specializing in Great Danes, Dalmatians, German Shepherds, Dobermans and Pomeranians. We train for Confirmation Shows and for home obedience along with being available for private lessons. Training is vital. It is important to have a well trained socialized animal as well as it being well bred for confirmation and health.

The list goes on for our older critters here at the rancho. Throughout the years I have been fondly called Miss Ellymay. Love is in abundance at our ranch and you can see it through all of our creatures we have been blessed to have.

Sincerely, Jolene and Staff, The Dalmatian Gang, The Dane Posse and The German Shepherd Squad, JGD Great Danes, JGD Dalmatians, JGD German Shepherds.
