All Pegasus Danes are immersed in the Puppy Culture Programs and Pegasus Puppy Program. This stabilizes and desensitizes them to function in any environment, and in public places. Meet our first Therapy Titled dog, Tonka, CGC. He has been training in agility as well as his certification to assist in schools, courtrooms and in hospitals. During the Coronavirus Isolation, it is the Nursing homes that are on lockdown from visitors and families. They are isolated to their rooms, when previously they engaged in activities and field trips sometimes on a daily basis. This was a huge change for them, as many do not understand due to their medical limitations. Tonka made visits through windows. Way to go Tonka!

He was "Hero of the Day"on the Today Show, and featured on CNN, CBS, NBC, The Insider, Instagram, YouTube, Good Morning America, The Dodo, and will be featured in The Great Dane Review.

I am beyond proud to have one of my dogs showcased on TV during such a difficult time for our world. Great Job Tonka! I am soo proud to say you were loved before you were born, and your mission in life was solidified by preservation breeding. Pegasus Great Danes pours soo much time and devotion into each puppy in every litter and it shows in the puppies produced and raised in my home.

Pegasus I'm a Survivor, TKN, VHM, CGC, Thanos
Thanos finished his championship in 4 weeks of showing. He resides in Louisiana and is a therapy dog to his mom. He has been the best medicine for Sickle Cell pain crisis and I couldn't be more happy about him filling that void in her life. Great Job Thanos!!
Thanos recently became a big brother to his half sister Harley Quinn.
