Jim - Renee Greenberg Gumbs has backed several Danes over the years. I remember CH. Erinwood Raintree Dixie Legend - I believe his call name was Tyler -- that Renee backed and showed all over the place. She came to the Waukesha KC shows in Wisconsin one year with her entourage for the Dane specialty and 4 day cluster -- 3 motor homes (one for her, one for her handler and one for her "staff". I remember she had converted some of the storage area on the motorhome for freezers that had steaks in one and lobsters in another. I don't really know her, but she's got more money than I could ever dream of having. Her staff would go around the show site in the evenings roadworking Tyler from a 4 person totally enclosed golf cart. I have some other stories that I don't really want to share on an open forum, but if you're interested, it might help you in your relations with her.

Could be a very lucrative shoot for you. Don't know if you've done any Dane work before, but if you need some tips on the best way to shoot Danes and how breeders like to have their Danes captured, I would be more than willing to give you any help I could.
