Great Dane Dog Breeders

Looking for a Great Dane breeder? Glossy websites and cute puppy photos make it hard to know what a kennel is really like. Pawthenticity is a nonprofit that collects public government inspection records into free, searchable breeder profiles, so you can see what inspectors found before you bring a Great Dane home.

Pawthenticity tracks 16 licensed kennels that breed Great Danes. They average 65 dogs of all breeds, and the largest has 289. 8 kennels (50%) have been cited by inspectors, for 103 citations in total. The kennels are in 7 states, mostly Indiana (6), Missouri (4), Ohio (2), Iowa (1) and Kansas (1). Hobby and unlicensed breeders aren't included.
