Gem Danes

Gem Danes, great Dane breeder in Esparto, California, serves Yolo County and the Sacramento area. The kennel aligns with American Kennel Club guidelines and has maintained health screening of hips, elbows, and cardiac function for more than a decade. Adult dogs live on a rural property with climate-controlled housing and ample pasture-like enclosures.

Each puppy is welcomed into the home from birth and benefits from daily socialization, early sound exposure, and supervised outdoor play in secure runs. Careful weaning protocols and hands-on handling foster adaptability and reinforce calm behavior. Owners note the gentle temperaments and transparent communication throughout the adoption process, reflecting a breeding philosophy centered on welfare and long-term well-being.

Several litters have gone on to therapy work and conformation shows, showcasing the breed’s versatility and drive for companionship. New owners receive a detailed care package with feeding guidelines and complete health records.
