Formerly known as Emrick Danes then Mafia Danes, I have raised, bred, & shown Great Danes for the last 22 years, since 1997. We were originally located in Huntingtown, MD then re-located to Glen Burnie, MD. With each litter, I strived to produce puppies that follow the Great Dane Standard, are happy, healthy, and have that wonderful temperament that Danes are known for having. I only bred for quality blacks and blues using both Imports and American Danes. My Danes and puppies were raised in the home as part of the family and I expected that same loving care to carry over to whoever joined our Mafia Family. I believe in the BARF diet, Rule of the 8's, and the Bio-Sensor Program when it comes to raising my pups.
From there, I retired from Great Danes and dove into the wonderful LARGE personality of Boston Terriers!
Born in Baltimore, MD and raised in Calvert County. Here is where I lived & ran under my kennel name of Emrick Danes. In August 2007, I relocated to Glen Burnie, MD under the new and improved name of Mafia Danes, and now I am back in Baltimore County! My passion for dogs began when I was 15 years old as I participated with my family to raise Sch. Shepherds. From here I went on to Great Danes and I had been captured by this wonderful breed for the past 20+ years. I have raised numerous beautiful litters, became a member of the local Great Dane Club, and have tried my hand at showing on various occasions.
For awhile, we bred and raised Boston Terriers, as I needed something a bit smaller and easier to care for. I still have my two foundational Boston Terriers, Bore and Sea-Sea, but we are now ready for the bigger breed again and look forward to breeding Long-Haired German Shepherd Dogs!
I'm excited about our next venture into Long-haired German Shepherds! My family has raised, bred, & trained German Schutzhund's for Protection since I can remember, as a little girl.
