Alvis Great Danes

Our Dogs

Every dog in our program is here because they represent what we believe a Great Dane should be — structurally correct, temperamentally sound, and health-tested before any breeding decision is made. These are not kennel dogs. They are family members who happen to be the foundation of something we care deeply about.

Temperament

Bold, playful, and full of presence. Goose carries the best of his dam Lilith — confident movement, a sharp mind, and a natural ease around people that makes him stand out from the moment he enters a room.

Program Contributions

Goose represents the next generation of Alvis Great Danes. As Lilith's son, he carries forward her exceptional harlequin lineage with the added depth of blue patterning. We are developing him carefully — his future role in the program will be determined by his health results, structural evaluation, and maturity.

Health Clearances

  • Health testing in progress — results will be published prior to any breeding

Every Clearance. Every Dog. No Exceptions.

Health testing is not optional in our program. OFA evaluations, cardiac screening, and Embark genetic panels are completed on every dog before any breeding decision is made. We publish our results and make pedigrees available to every family.
