Linda Arndt, Professor Emeritus from a large Midwest University, is affectionately known to most people as "The Great Dane Lady" or "The Lady of Last Resort". She has spent the past 38+ years as a professional breeder and devoted her efforts to research, feed trials, writing and lecturing on nutritionally caused bone diseases, and the effects of high calorie diets on the growth of large and giant
breeds. Linda has lectured nationally and published numerous articles on growth, systemic yeast and general nutrition, and how it relates to wellness and longevity for all pets. She has published in purebred magazines here and overseas, as well as in the DaneWorld Magazine, The Great Dane Reporter, Whole Dog Journal, Pet Health News, Pet Product News, Animal Wellness and numerous animal health and many breed specific magazines. From 1989-1995 she conducted a personal National Bone Disease Survey of over 5200 Great Dane cases of HOD, OCD and Pano. This body of information gave breeders a better understanding of the causes, prevention and management of Developmental Orthopedic Diseases in large and giant breeds. Out of that research came the design forthe old Eagle Natural Pack dog food (prior to 2009) and Feed Programs that work in helping to prevent developmental disease. Blackwatch Adult Feed Program , Blackwatch Puppy Feed Program and Puppy Guidelines (toys, vaccines, cages, problems). She also owned and bred champion Great Danes, Pugs, Borzois, and currently is owned by a Collie a Sheltie, a Pug as well as purebred cats (Persian). Over the years her puppy buyers and breeder friends have come to her for assistance and as a result, she has an extensive experience which she has written about at this educational website, a place to share her knowledge and experiences with other breeders, old and new alike, regardless of breed. She works hand-in-hand with puppy buyers, breeders, owners and veterinarians in helping to solve problems through proper diets, in the hopes of promoting wellness and longevity for our companion animals.
