About Us – The Heart Behind Coastal Danes
Welcome to Coastal Danes, where Great Danes are raised with intention, love, and the joy of real family life. We are a family of four living on Florida’s beautiful southwest coast, and our dream has always been to raise Great Danes the right way - with honesty, transparency, and a deep respect for this incredible breed.
Our home is always full - full of noise, full of laughter, full of energy, and full of love. Between our two kids, our Danes, and a household that hardly ever sits still, our puppies grow up in a warm, lively environment that prepares them for the families they’ll one day join. From day one, they hear everyday sounds, meet new faces, feel gentle hands, and learn what it means to be part of a real home.
Where It All Began
We spent years studying Great Danes, learning the breed’s unique needs, personalities, and health considerations. We knew that when we finally stepped into breeding, we would do it with purpose. Not for volume. Not for trends. Not for hype.
But for quality, temperament, and the lifelong happiness of every puppy and every family who loves them.
Coastal Danes is built on that foundation - a sincere desire to raise Danes who are not only beautiful, but balanced, healthy, and emotionally well-prepared for life.
Quality Over Quantity - Always
We proudly produce one carefully planned litter per year.
This is intentional.
Focusing on a single litter allows us to pour our full attention into early development, socialization, structure, cleanliness, and one-on-one interaction. Each puppy is handled daily, introduced to routines, and raised right in the center of our home - never in kennels or isolated spaces.
We want every Coastal Danes puppy to be more than “well bred.”
We want them to be well raised.
A True Family Program
Our children play a huge role in shaping the puppies’ personalities. They help with feeding, playtime, gentle handling, and teaching pups how to interact with people in a positive, safe way. This creates puppies that are naturally:
People-focused
Gentle with kids
Confident in new environments
Emotionally balanced
Ready for family life
Puppies raised in a home - especially with children - grow up with a foundation you simply can’t replicate elsewhere.
Our Commitment to You
When you choose a Coastal Danes puppy, you’re not just bringing home a dog - you’re joining our extended family. We provide:

Lifetime breeder support
If you ever have questions, concerns, or just want to share updates as your puppy grows, we are always here. Our relationship doesn’t end at pickup - it begins there.
The Coastal Danes Standard
Our goal is simple:
To raise Great Danes that we would be proud to call our own.
Danes who are calm, confident, healthy, affectionate, and capable of becoming loyal, loving family companions. Whether you’re searching for a couch buddy, adventure companion, or family dog, we aim to produce puppies who fit seamlessly into their forever homes.
