DANEHOLZ is a dedicated family-run kennel located in the picturesque Hunter Valley, specializing in the breeding of Great Danes. Owned by Kirsty and Chris McLaughlin, the kennel has been a labor of love for over 20 years, during which they have developed a deep understanding and appreciation for this majestic breed. DANEHOLZ is committed to the health and well-being of their dogs, regularly conducting extensive health tests on their breeding stock to ensure the highest standards. The kennel is home to a variety of animals, including their beloved Harlequin Great Dane, RuBIS Champion Olympusdanes Black Beauty, and two German Shepherds, alongside their four children, creating a nurturing environment for their dogs.
At DANEHOLZ, the focus is not only on breeding but also on showcasing the beauty and temperament of Great Danes. The McLaughlins participate in dog shows, highlighting their commitment to improving the breed through selective breeding practices. They aim to produce puppies with solid bone structure, excellent conformation, and outstanding movement, all while ensuring that each dog possesses a gentle and loving temperament. The kennel does not breed frequently, allowing them to maintain a high standard of care and attention for each dog in their program.
As part of their commitment to responsible breeding, DANEHOLZ offers a unique benefit to new puppy owners: every puppy comes with one month of free pet insurance, ensuring that new families have peace of mind as they welcome their new companion. The McLaughlins are proud members of the Great Dane Club of NSW and are excited to continue their journey in the world of Great Danes, sharing their passion with fellow enthusiasts and potential dog owners alike.
