About Us
My family started showing Great Danes in the 1960’s. My passion stemmed from my mother who not only bred & showed Great Dane’s; but founded Great Dane Rescue Inc. back in the 70’s when rescue was unheard of. There was such a need for it, and sadly its more in need today! It is this reason that I am so passionate and active in rescue
I was attempting to show my mothers Great Danes as a child, but it was tough…especially since they outweighed me. I was given my 1st Min Pin to show since the breed was smaller than the Danes, yet had a big dog personality.
Bogart finished in a flash and I was hooked! Ch. Delwoods Bogart of Barnett was my foundation male who was from Bergeron’s Kennels by Ch. Blyhthwood’s I’m A Ladies Man x Bergeron’s Gold Dust Barnette
I am not a “professional” breeder. I do not advertise puppies for sale, so you must complete my inquiry form for information on availability. I am very passionate about the breed & its welfare, which is why Ive dedicated myself to the Min Pin. OFA structural health testing on dogs is very important. A DNA swab such as PawPrint Genetics etc, is not the same as OFA structural health testing.
I started under the kennel name of Delwoods in 1980, which was my mothers kennel name. I changed to Sidels in 1999, which is a blend of her name & mine in honor of her.
All of my dogs are raised and live in my home as my companions. When I do have a litter, they are whelped with me right there and I start the socialization process immediately.
I am a firm believer of educating people about this breed as well as others and I will gab your ear off when it comes to dog talk–any breed! So please ask me anything, if I cant answer it correctly; I will get you the answer.
