OUR BELOVED PIRATE & his litter TURNED TEN in OCT'08, but we sadly lost him to "old man" (prostate) issues over the holidays. We are not the only ones who mourn the lost of this dog that epitomizes a "new attitude" where Danes "do it all." Thank you all who gave donations in his name to the GDCA's Charitable Trust and/or sent us (over 100 already!) sympathy cards. PIRATE is: OFA/CHF CHAMPION OF HEALTH, CHIC-certified, Obedience, Rally, Agility & Therapy-titled, GDCA HALL OF FAME & GROUP WINNING, BISS Ch. CHROMA Thief of Hearts, CD, RA, OA, AXJ, OJC, NAC, TDIA, CGC. CHIC #: 13779. Venerable Dane. Versatility Award Winning Dane. Sire of Champion stock, as well as offspring titled at advanced levels in agility, obedience & rally. Therapy working get & offspring ranked in all dog sports. Health certified family. A dog of classic type. He was every day of his life a wonderful friend, loyal supporter & great mentor.

Shown below at 9-10 years of age. Pirate celerated his 10th birthday on October 7th, 2008. He was echo & ECG heart normal as well as thyroid normal as an aged veteran. He's contributed also to the OFA DNA bank, the Addison's study, the DCM study, & several other breed/disease banks as a "normal." His sister PICABO (now 10+ & great-grandam to ranked & titled pups) & many all of his litter (as well as all of the 9+ year old 1/2 littermates) are still with us, rocking out! A healthy, happy "titled" crew! Now isn't that an intelligent face? He was always ready to go: Have van, will travel! Rear and Front assemblies still in good working order to the end. Now how many 10 year old Danes have this kind<G>of get-up-&-go!?!?!
