He is here and he is trouble! he is adorable and he chews on everybody and everything. I'm taking him to the vet today to have him seen. We've started crate training him and he is so good. He whines for a couple of minutes, but then goes to sleep. He has not even had any accidents inside yet, he always goes when I bring him outside; such a smart doggy.

Dear Dreamcatchers,

Thank you so much for the wonderful puppies. We have gotten several from you now they are all healthy, wonderful, and extremely smart. They are such wonderful kids dogs, and it makes me feel so much safer to have them around at night while my husband works and we are home alone. Each one has had such a different personality it is really fun to watch them grow.

Puppyfind Review:

I just had to write and let any one whom is interested in an experience of a lifetime who are in love with Great Danes to go and meet and buy a Great Dane from this place it will take your breath away at how well these dogs are loved and well taken care of by Wayne the owner and breeder. He has many dogs and each and every one of them are well behaved and loved and sweet and loving and so well taken care of. My husband and myself must have spend four of five hours with Wayne the first time we met him, and we watched him in action with all his babies, and that they are to him. He loves them, and in return they adore him. I have had Great Danes all my life So I know what to look for in a breeder and not, and what we love about Wayne is the down to earth approach you feel from him instead of the stick up the behind approach you feel from most breeders. thanks for reading. you'll be very happy with your experience from this breeder.

Wayne,
Well, its been over a year since we got our Lilly blue. She is now 15 months old, 36 inches tall at her back, about 120 lbs and just as healthy as can be. She is the best dog we could have asked for, beautiful, extremely smart, and a wonderful personality. Her best friend is a 8lb cat. We just wanted you to know that you have the best dogs and we can't wait to come get number 2.

I met Wayne a year ago. I had a female fawn dane that I had bred and had one puppy left (a brindle female) so I traded him for a harlequin female puppy, which I will get this year. He has great dogs with terrific dispositions. He takes great care of his dogs and has happy, healthy puppies. He is a terrific friend and super nice. You could`nt buy a puppy from a nicer man. D`Ann

It has been a privilege to own such a big baby. Sir Hurricanes Duke of Riverwood, AKA Dukie, has been such an asset for entertaining my girl. Duke at 15 months is 150 pounds 34 inches at the shoulders, Hope he attains his dad and moms calm disposition (still puppy sometimes) and the bulk of his dad. Vet seems to think he will mature at 3 to be 220 like dad and still might grow another 1-3 inches in height. His presence has helped keep predators away so that we don't loose any of the little dogs. He is loved and loves back. Just what I wanted and needed. Thanks, a thousand times. Monica

Wayne-

Maverick is adjusting quickly. He follows me everywhere I go, and has been doing GREAT with potty training. We are impressed with how smart he is, and how well he has melded with our pack....

We really enjoyed meeting you, and appreciated your attention to detail, and knowledgeable info concerning the Great Dane breed. It was a pleasure doing business with you! We will keep you posted on Maverick's progress.

Thanks again,

Hi Wayne,

Sorry it took us so long to get some pictures to you, its been a hectic holiday season for us. But we just wanted you to know our puppy is doing wonderful. She is almost 4 months old, 2 feet tall at the back, and about 52 lbs. Every vet visit has been fine. We are very glad we were able to find this little sweetheart, they are wonderful breed. Thanks again for all your help in picking her out.

Wayne, Thank you he is a wonderful companion for my son.

We started him on obediance training this week.. that was fun put the Great Dane next to a miniture puge, Ill get photos next time.. Dan

Hi Wayne,

Millie is doing well. Growing quickly of course.

I wanted to enclose some pics of Diesel. He was born May 20, 2007. He is doing well and very healthy. At 8.5 months he weighed 125lbs and still growing. He is due to go get weighed again. He is very loving and very much a lap dog! Both mine and my husbands at the same time. Thank you so much for him. We will keep you posted.

Hi Wayne

Hope all is well. We wanted to tell you how happy Jozie makes our life. She's such a joy! Thank you so much for breeding such beautiful and spirited Great Danes. We will recommend you always. You will see 1 picture when Jozie was a wee bit of a thing......she is now 78 lbs. and will be turning 6 months in about a week. We will all visit you soon......

Thanks again

Hi Wayne, We love our Cali! Everyone comments on how beautiful she is and we tell everyone about your awesome ranch!!

Hey Wayne,

My name is Natalie Coots. We purchased one of your puppies out of Dexter and Penelope 2years ago, and named her Zoie. I thought you would like to know that she is doing great, and I attached some pictures of her for you. She is hands down one of the sweetest dogs we have ever had. We love her to death.

Natalie and Brian Coots

Beautiful healthy male harlequin from Dreamcatcher Ranch now residing in Bow Washington with Cameron..

We are so very happy with Miss Mobo, she is in puppy training now and doing okay. She had us trained so now we have to train her. She is the love of our days. She always makes us smile in our hearts in the morning. Thank you so very much for our beautiful girl. We will keep sending you pictures and up dates. She is 16 weeks old now, 36 pounds and 25 inches tall at her shoulder.

My babies and their puppies at naptime yesterday!

Just a note to say it was good doing business with you and we're really enjoying our new family member. We're taking very seriously the task of getting him trained while he's still of a trainable size! :) We took him to the docks in Olympia and on a family adventure in Portland as well and he's great around strangers and other dogs. He's good with the kids and just recently started chewing on things (although a firm "no" and giving him an appropriate thing to chew on works well). He's already GREAT on a leash and sits each time we stop walking or before someone can approach him to say hello, we have him sit also.

Hi Wayne,

It has been a while since we spoke. I remember promising you pictures of Merle #2, who has since been renamed to Montana. She is a WONDERFUL dog that has already captured hearts many and made herself at home in southern California. She is a great counterbalance to my terrier-poodle mix (Bigs) who is VERY hyper and vocal. Montana has grown so much and it's very endearing to think back to day one when we had to bribe her out of her crate at LAX with the packaged food you provided us.

Montana gets along beautifully with other dogs, although it seems like she prefers the smaller ones. While she loves to run, she prefers to be the chaser as opposed to chasee. She's still goofy at fast speeds but is a sturdy 80lbs at 7 1/2 months of age. Just last week, I took her in to get her stitches taken out from her spay, the doctor that performed her surgery absolutely adored her (as does the rest of the employees at our vet). Our friends can't comprehend just how quickly she has grown, while other doggy parents are impressed with her gentle yet playful nature. Anyways, I'll let the pictures do the rest of the talking, please feel free to post this email along with Montana's pictures as a testament to the types of dogs you bring to families across the US, "GREAT" indeed! Pete and I will for ever be grateful to you and Montana's parents, we will very blessed to have such a wonderful addition and we certainly look forward to many long joyful and prosperous years with her.

Best,

Amber, Peter, Montana and Bigs

I bought Mandy ( Kahluas Mandi) from you about a year ago. She is a fawn great dane. I just wanted to let you know that she is a fantastic dog and I love her very much. Attached are some pictures of her. Thanks again for her. Darlene

Hi Wayne,

I don't know if you remember me, but I worked for you a few years ago but had to quite because of my kids, but before I left you gave me a pup with a bum front leg. I just wanted you to know she is the fastest 3 legged dog around! Her name is Gracy (not that she is graceful by any means!) She is about 130 lbs give or take a few. She didn't get as big as your others but that is OK it easier on her front leg that way. Unfortunately her (remaining) front leg is breaking apart on her, so she will probably have to go before her time but until then she is my baby. Thank you for giving her to me. There are some pics attached.

I don't believe we ever sent an you an update. We drove up to see you last May (2008) to pick up our baby. I just wanted to let you know that she is healthy, happy and absolutely the love of our lives (and everyone else around us!). Her first year was probably spent more at our vet's office than the park (only because she is my first and every little hiccup and scratch constituted a visit!). Where we go, she goes...We have enjoyed hiking, tubing down the river, going to Seattle's off leash parks, and visiting the Home Depot (where she is known for her cute collars and pink nails)! We just finished and successfully graduated from obedience training, one that I did not think we needed to do until I realized that I met my match...she is just as stubborn as I am. Going through that training has given me new appreciation for the breed.

We can't imagine life without her. So, thank you so much for breeding a perfect Great Dane. She is absolutely wonderful and our biggest decision coming up is whether we adopt a rescue or get another puppy. Either way, by the next year we want her to have a brother. If we decide to go for the puppy, we will be calling!

Attached is a picture of our car ride back home from Onalaska on Day 1, the other is recent as of Thanksgiving.

Once again, Thank you!

Amanda & Josh Bliggenstorfer

She has really grown. She is 13 months old now and 140 pounds. She just loves everyone. The grandkids want us to get a saddle, but they know she is a dog. They all love her and she thinks everyone is a toy. Every morning I love letting her out, she can give you a smile in your heart that last all day. Thanks for this wonderful girl, you are the best.

HAVE A GREAT DAY ;-)

That cat in the pic is the only one who can stand up to big ol' Kingston.

He's doing amazing, and listens very well. We can even leave the gate open while out in the yard and he never goes far. He sits, lays down, shakes, and will stay down if he tries to jump on people or the fence after being told once :) hasn't went potty in the house in ages. He's great! I can't ever thank you enough for my precious newest member to our little family.

Hi Wayne! I wanted to send you some recent pics of Riddick in the snow. He got a shot yesterday and weighs in at 36 lbs at 12 wks, He is such a wonderful pup. He is almost house trained and uses the puppy pads every once in a while. He is the smartest dog I've ever met. We start puppy class in March so it should be fun to see him around all these other little dogs. Thanks again for everything he has really brightened our lives and is so spoiled!

He is the best!

We purchased a male harlequin who is now 9 monthes old and he is beautiful! He is currently 130lbs of pure love. The three hour drive was well worth it. When we arrived he was very welcoming and had many puppies to choose from. His prices where very affordable when he could clearly charge alot more. He answerd every question we had and was very informed. We where aloud to play with all the puppies as well as the adults. His place was very clean and dogs very well taken care of. I couldnt have asked for a better breeder. We love our dog Atticus and wouldnt trade him for anything. We want to get another great dane in the future and we will definitly be calling on him again. Thanks for all of your hard work and loving dogs.

What a "great" great dane guy!

Two years ago, we got two boys from Wayne. Wow, they have grown up big and beautiful! Our black dane, Zeus, who is Axel's son, has sired some big, beautiful puppies! He is always on call for any questions we have, always helpful, and always honest. We have been to Dreamcatcher Ranch more than once, and we are always impressed at how healthy and happy his babies are. We will keep going back for years to come! Mount Olympus Danes

Exceptional Breeder

We purchased a female Harlequin at 8 weeks old from the breeder at Dreamcatcher Ranch. We have been so very happy with our Daisy and she has been a blessing to our family. We have a very unique situation with this breeder...We have a high level of trust in this breeder & we have also gained a friend in the process. Our Daisy just had her first litter and was bred with another Dreamcatcher Ranch Great Dane. We have had such a positive experience with the help from Dreamcatcher Ranch and would never consider another breeder to get our Great Dane's. You will truly get a memorable experience and PERFECT dog from this breeder.

I just had to write again about Wayne and his great Danes. I have been a friend for going on 2 years. He moved to his lovely farm last year and as we talk all the time ,I hope to see him soon. He takes GREAT care of his Danes and feeds them only the best of food. He loves his babies. I have seen alot of his babies and they are very well socialized. If you are looking for a puppy look no farther!D`Ann

Pleasure to work with

A year ago I purchased a female from a breeder in Texas, but found when the dog arrived she was not safe to have around my children. I despaired in finding her a home she would not be a threat to someone until another breeder recommended Dreamcatchers. It was a perfect match Wayne takes excellent care of his dogs and doesn't have children (his dogs are his children). I even spoke to his vet and he gave a glowing reference. I wish my place was as organized as his is. I have since purchased several puppies from Dreamcatchers and every one has been healthy, and easy to train. I would happily recommend Dreamcatchers to anyone looking for an honest straight forward purchase. Wayne is as honest a man as you can find now days. Tammy ~ Spottadane

Wayns excellent farm.

My wife and I have had many dogs over the years (mostly Akita's). When our last dog past away, we decided on getting a Great Dane. That's when we met Wayne and the staff of Dream Catcher Ranch. We have always known that the temperment of a dog is part of it's parents temperment. Wayne raises, cares very much for, and love his dogs. He has a excellent, clean, loving farm for his dogs, and it shows in there temperment. Waynes staff is very caring for the dogs too. They know, love and treat the dogs like family. They teach the dogs manners very early on. This is important to do in large breed dogs as soon as possible. The animals on Waynes farm love Wayne and it shows. This can not be faked. Dogs don't lie. If you elect to buy a Great Dane, go to Dream catcher first. Watch the dynamics between Wayne, Waynes staff and the dogs. You will understand this is a excellent place to acquire a Great Dane. Thank you Wayne and staff!!!

Hey Wayne,

Wanted to let you know that Lilly (born from Nicky and Axel on 2/15/09) is doing great. At 9 months she’s 105 lbs and 31’. She was spayed a couple of months ago without any problems. She is really sweet but still has a lot of puppy energy. She’s also very loyal and rarely leaves my side. She’s great with the kids and sleeps with my daughter on occasion. Here’s a few pics attached.

Good luck to you,

Hello Wayne, this is Ryan and Amanda. We purchased Brody from your 4-22 litter. He has been such a great puppy for us. He gets along great with our 2 corgis. We love him so much and are so happy to have him. These are some pics we have taken since bringing him home. Hope you enjoy them. We also hope you and all of the danes and horses are doing well. Best wishes for your holidays!

Ryan Brown & Amanda Carter

Hi Wayne,

Sorry we haven't sent pictures sooner. But I lost my battery charger so I couldn't download the pictures I had taken. I have sent you a range of pictures. Andre is doing great. At 4 months old, he is just a couple pounds shy of 80 pounds. Right now he is gaining 5 to 7 pounds a week. At 4 months old he now weighs more than our other great Dane, but she is still slightly taller. They get along so well together and love to play together, and just make noise at each other.

Andre is a talker. If you tell him "No" He will back talk to you. It is really quite funny. He has fit in well with our family and we love him so much.

She's a DREAM girl!

She's everything we could ever ask for in a Dane puppy & maturing to a stunning beautiful girl. Only a pet, thank you for the responsible pet contract & limited registrations of pet puppies. VERY responsible of you as a breeder! Thank you for allowing her to become a part of our live, family & hearts. We truly love her so much! At 7 months old, she is already in advanced obedience classes, super temperament: the best of any Dane I have ever met!!

Very Happy

Hi all! We got our boy from waynes a few weeks ago and are very happy with poindexter. Wayne is a nice down to earth man who takes all the time you need him to with you. He doesnt have to come home with you and co-own your pup because he is constantly available for anything that might come up. Our boy is growing fast and is pretty smart too. Thanks wayne! And those new baby fawns are looking pretty tempting...hehe I have a few weeks to convince my hubby we could house another one...LOL
