Any Questions?

All of our breeding dogs, including stud males, hold hip and elbow certifications via OFA or Germany’s A-Stamp program and are clear of hip and elbow dysplasia. They also receive SV or Embark DNA testing, screening for over 200 genetic conditions to support long-term health and informed breeding decisions.

We have 1-2 litters per year. This can vary but we will not produce more than 3 litters each year. Our values do not align with having several litters per year, or multiple litters on the ground at the same time. We believe that a true ethical breeder will prioritize quality over quantity.

Yes. All of our puppies are placed with a written 24-month health guarantee covering serious hereditary conditions, including moderate to severe hip and elbow dysplasia. Puppies come from health-tested parents and are vet-checked prior to placement. Full terms and exclusions are outlined in the puppy contract.

We require that your dog stays intact up until 24 months of age, and is sterilized before 36 months.

Sterilizing a dog before 24 months will void our health guarantee.

Allowing your puppy to fully develop is crucial to the health of your German Shepherd . This time frame allows ample time for your puppy to fully mature and decreases the risk of joint problems like hip and elbow dysplasia which are common in the breed.

We allow the dog to remain intact for up to 36 months as this also allows a proper amount of time to participate in conformation events if you desire.

If you plan to show your dog past the age of 36 months we can extend the allowed time your dog may remain intact if deemed necessary. Participating in events that require your dog to be intact is the only exception to our spay/neuter agreement besides co-ownership. Eligibility for the extended spay/neuter agreement will only be granted if your dog has already participated in conformation before the age of 36 months.

After comparing pricing models from other breeders in the state, our German Shepherd puppies are priced at $4000.

Our Belgian Tervuren puppies will be priced at $2500.

We focus on West German Working Line German Shepherd Dogs because they’re built and bred to do more than just look impressive. These dogs tend to have lean, athletic bodies, moderate structure, and the kind of durability that supports real work, and long-term soundness.

While other local programs place their emphasis on show lines — which are often bred for a larger frame, more dramatic angulation, and a striking gait in the ring — our priorities are different. We care most about how a dog moves, thinks, and functions in everyday life. For us, structure should support purpose, and a well-built dog is one that can work, train, and live comfortably for years to come.

Our puppies come with limited AKC registration, which means you do not have breeding rights however dogs are still eligible to participate in AKC events.

There are special occasions where we will offer co-owned puppies with full AKC registration under specific circumstances. For more information about co-ownership click here.

We do not allow people to pick puppies themselves, usually people will pick the first puppy that comes to them… that is not how we roll here! We work closely with puppy buyers to learn what your wants and needs are for your new family member. We utilize The Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test along with close examination of body language and reactions to a plethora of new situations during the last 4 weeks of their time with us. Volhard is a standardized objective tool used to match a puppy’s natural inherited temperament with a buyers lifestyle and expectations. Volhard is not a pass/fail test but a guide to help us ensure a perfect match.

While we do not place puppies based on coloring, and looks we do take into consideration gender and color preferences, our goal is to get you the perfect puppy that matches ALL of your desires.
