Welcome to Laurado Great Danes, Registered

The original Laurado Great Danes was started in the 1950's and was owned by Hazel Mage, so there are now over 70 years of champions carrying the Laurado name. It produced numerous champions and obedience title Danes, including some in the National Top Ten. Several people, still active in Danes today, got their first champion from the kennel or from Laurado stock.

I started living at Laurado Kennels at age 12 and lived and worked there for periods of time over the next 10+ years. As Hazel aged and was able to do less, she allowed me to continue the kennel's line and name. The Laurado line has continued on a limited breeding basis.

I had my first homebred champion in 1981 and there have been a series of conformation champions since. We believe in health tests and feel we are doing a good job of producing Great Danes with sound conformation and temperaments. All pups are started in a family atmosphere.

I have been an AKC licensed judge and parent club approved mentor for Great Danes, but also judged Siberian Huskies, Boxers, and Junior Showmanship.

We are located in Northeast Washington. Our phone numbers are: (509) 684-8091 (home) and (509) 389-2631 (cell).
