Welcome to my website! I live with Leigh Ann, my wife of almost 27 years. She is the most patient person alive. She is my constant source of support and encouragement...along with a select few friends...who will all be nominated for Sainthood!

And this is our son Bryn! Pick of the litter at age 5 and again all grown up! Tell me I don't have a good eye!!!!

We are situated on several acres out in the countryside of Northeastern PA where the dogs and numerous other critters have plenty of room to stretch their legs.

I own a boarding facility called Stoneledge Boarding Kennel. I also own a grooming shop and pet supply store known as the Pet Barn. This is a small community in which we live. One that is very relaxed and where everyone knows everyone. Visitors from out of the area have asked for directions to our home and locals have even hand delivered them to us.

Through these pages I will share with you what has become an almost thirty year passion for this majestic breed. The Danes on this site are ones that I have bred, shown, and loved over the years.

Here at Brinlann, I do extensive health testing before any of the dogs are used for breeding. We are trying to produce the best physically and mentally sound animals possible. Temperament is a very large concern as our theory is they should indeed be Gentle Giants. We feel we are on the right track as several of our Champions throughout the years have also been therapy dogs that make many visits to local nursing homes and regularly visit the elementary school where my wife teaches. Still all and all I do love the show ring competition and usually owner handle my own dogs and some that I have sold.

Here the critters are visiting the Blue Mt Elem. school for pet week. Pictured are Ch Zorro... the Frenchie and Brinlann's the Real Thing a brindle dane named Bono. We are trying to teach the kids to find out as much about a pet BEFORE you get one so we all know what is expected...and that is pets are for LIFE!
