Ozark Great Danes Reviews

  • Jan 6, 2020

At the end of November, Devin Harris dba Great Danes of The Ozarks sold my husband and I a puppy with a broken jaw and fractured skull. We were unaware of the severity of the injuries until we took the puppy to our veterinarian days later.

Upon pick up, he claimed the puppy had been bitten by a larger dog but stated that he took her to a veterinarian and gave my husband a clear plastic bag with 5 Cephalexin pills (an antibiotic) and instructed my husband to give the puppy 1 pill a day.

We were excited to receive a new puppy and didn't think to question that the antibiotic was provided to us in a clear plastic bag instead of a prescription bottle. (Hindsight is 20/20.) Our veterinarian later confirmed that is not the proper dosage for that medication and that, had a veterinarian prescribed the medication, the proper dosage would have been 3 pills a day.

My husband and I did try to speak to Mr. Harris about the puppy's condition and, to our utter shock and disbelief, he turned hostile immediately. We've later come to find out that Mr. Harris never took the puppy to a veterinarian and believes himself to have sufficient veterinary medical knowledge to care for injured animals on his own, which is a violation of 7 U.S.C. ยง2143, which requires breeders to have injured animals under veterinary care.

In researching Mr. Harris further, we found that he has had pet businesses in California and Nevada shut down for animal abuse and neglect. At this time, Mr. Harris is operating under the name of Great Danes of The Ozarks, where he has 10 to 13 adult dogs being bread to produce several litters of puppies (which can be 5-13 puppies per litter) for which he is selling at a price approximately between $1,300 and $1,500 per puppy and claims to be AKC certified.

However, I have found that Great Danes of The Ozarks is not a registered business with the Missouri Secretary of State, nor is any other business entity by Devin Harris registered to be operating as a puppy breeder.

His most recent businesses to have their licenses permanently revoked were called Pet Central, Inc. in July 2019 in Nevada and Noah's Ark Pet Store and/or Noah's Ark Puppies in Joplin, MO in October 2019.
