| Cindee, Remington and Tiffany at home |
Welcome to the home site of Cynthia "Cindee" Carlson and Esquire Great Danes.
We focus on harlequin and mantle great danes first as companions and family members, and second
as potential show dogs. Founded in 1994, we breed sparingly, perhaps having one litter every year or two. We have
had particular success showing our natural-eared danes to their championships, although we have bred, shown and finished
danes with cropped ears as well. Our home is on rural farmland in the Palouse area of Eastern
Washington state. We currently have 6 great danes gracing our home, most of whom are older. Our menagerie
also includes 2 Clydesdale mares (one of whom is in foal to a Gypsy Vanner stallion with her baby due in early July,
2021), 2 Morgan mares and 5 cats. Cindee, the person behind Esquire Great Danes, has retired from her previous profession
as a business litigation attorney in the San Francisco Bay Area and, after returning to the university, now also has
her doctorate degree in veterinary medicine, which she earned from the Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine
in 2007, while in her mid-forties. We are passionate about our danes, and about all of our
animals. The occasional puppies we have available go to well-scrutinized homes, and we take steps to stay in touch with
their owners and remain involved in their lives. Any litter here is of course whelped in the house, where Cindee stays
'round the clock with mom and babies for many weeks, sleeping with the mom and litter in the whelping box until all eyes
are open, and then relocating to a bed in the same room. The Veterinary Teaching Hospital at WSU is a short
drive from our home, providing excellent emergency and routine care for all of our animals when necessary. Please take a look around and enjoy your visit. This site is new and under construction, so please bear
with us.
What's New?
Esquire Great Danes anticipates a harlequin to harlequin litter in late March or very early April
2010. We will confirm the pregnancy by ultrasound at the end of February. Check back in March if you would like
further information about this breeding, which has taken place.
