Welcome to Aeolian Danes

Welcome to Aeolian Danes

“The name, Aeolian has many meanings:

I am a geologist, and the root of the geologic term eolian (which refers to sand dunes) is the roman word Aeolian.

I grew up in the desert, amongst tons of sand dunes (some of the best rocks in the world are ancient sand dunes that have been preserved)  Most notably is White Sands National Monument

My first dane is a real spitfire, very energetic and outgoing...spending any amount of time trying to keep up with her often leaves me feeling windblown (literally and figuratively)

Aeolus is the Roman God of the North Wind (hence why the term eolian refers to wind blown sand)...Great Danes are the Apollo of Dogs.  Apollo is the Greco-Roman God of healing, prophecy, the arts (especially music and archery).

I consider a well bred Dane a work of art, so the name is also a nod to the origins of the breed it all of it's classic forms.

REMEMBER
9-11

 

We shall,
in our heart of hearts,
never forget those
who fought bravely
and gallantly
gave their lives
for freedom!
