CH Vendetta (Flora [owned in England by Mr. Wuster] x Harras) Born: August 21, 1884. Breeder: Mr. Bamburger, Germany. Imported to England. Flora was bred to Harras in Germany before she was imported to England. Vendetta was a product of the German breeding of Flora to Harras, and was imported while still young, becoming the property of Mrs. Reginald Herbert, who afterwards sold her to Mr. Craven. Vendetta was perhaps the finest specimen of the Great Dane ever seen in England; Although in all large breeds the female is, as a rule, noticeably smaller than the male, Vendetta was in no sense inferior to such mighty dogs as Hannibal and CH Colonia Bosco. She was tall, with great substance and power, and had the bold, frowning expression and noble, commanding look which seems to have been softened out from more recent Danes. Her height was 32 1/2 “ at the shoulder, and her weight 144 lbs. Thus she was considerably taller and heavier than most specimens of her breed. [Note, the “pic” actually appears to be a drawing.] Premature death.
