Quick intro from Hamilton, Ontario

[jenb]

Hi everyone,

I recently had to put down my baby, an Alaskan Malamute, and feel like something's missing. Although I have 2 other babies (they're cats) which are SPCA specials, there's something missing. I need another dog in my life. Not anything small, my parents have a shi tzu (sp?) and my cats dwarf her. Anyone who's had a big dog as part of their family would understand immediately why I want another one. I've always loved the look and personality of any Great Danes I have come across so I've been out here trying to research and see if this beautiful dog is for me. I hope so.

What I'm hoping for is to connect with anyone in the general area of Southern Ontario that I can talk with, or maybe someone who knows someone that I can talk to. Are there any breeders in the area or does anyone know who would be closest to Hamilton, Ontario where I live.

Maybe that wasn't the quick intro I thought it would be but I look forward to talking with others.
Thanks
Jen

Welcome to DOL. I lived in Hamilton for six years :) , know the area pretty well. Our breeder is from west of Kitchener but she is really super great! There are a number of good breeders in the area surrounding Hamilton, within an hour and a half drive. You are lucky actually, the closest one to where we live now is five hours. It is totally worth it though to find someone who is a good mentor and friend as well as reputable breeder. Good Luck. I know that for us, just knowing that a dane will be part of our family soon makes feel complete. :)

Welcome! I'm sorry for the loss of your Malamute. We lasted about 6 months when we lost our Lab/Golden.
