      The Broholmer, also known as Danish Broholmer and Danish Mastiff, has been dated back to the late 1500's. The daughter of the Danish King, King Frederick II, married the Scottish King, King James VI. King James VI gave English Mastiff-like dogs to the Danish royalty as a gift. Also, the legendary Danish Vikings, at times, would bring back Mastiff type dogs from their travels during the Middle Ages. These dogs then were mated with local drovers dogs known as slagterhunden or "butcher's dogs". These offspring are referred to as the Old Danish Dog. These dogs are regarded as the start of the Broholmer breed and are also considered as the "real" Great Dane.

      In 1998, the Broholmer breed was officially acknowledged by the international breed registry FCI. As the breed continued to flourish, it became recognized by the United Kennel Club in 2006. Up until 2009, the Broholmer had only been found in Denmark and a few other European countries. In June of 2009, the first Danish Broholmer was imported into the United States, by Joe and Kathy Kimmeth (that's us). This beautiful female Broholmer was the first of the breed to be registered with the United Kennel Club. In July 2010, this Broholmer, named Honor, made the breed debut at the UKC Premier in Indiana. Since that time, breed interest is gaining considerably in the United States. As of today, we now have imported the second Brohomer (Zeke) into the United States, and to be more accurate, the whole Western Hemisphere..
