Our Dogs
Our dogs are family and we enjoy sharing our love for the breed with others. Vigorous exercise, an enriched environment, and training programs are selected for each dog to maintain physical conditioning and a healthy mind. We aim to breed the best temperament, character, and structured German Shepherds, following the German standard. Males | Females | For Sale
Puppies
Every litter is planned out to meet our high expectations of what a German Shepherd was bred to do as a family companion and versatile breed. We specialize in the heritage of the breed including training and titles in IGP formerly known as IPO or Schutzhund. We also show our dogs in the German style (FCI) SV ring to continue to adhere to the breed standard. Our breeding dogs are carefully selected, and have certified hip/elbow clearances, temperament tested, and titles. We provide our dogs the ability to advance in other areas including AKC sports, other show venues, and service dogs. As a breeder who trains and titles multiple generations we truly can evaluate and exam the positives of each dog in temperament, intellectual abilities, and what attributes they pass along to their offspring.
Training
We are sharing our passion, we have opened our training up to include all breeds! We offer Puppy Enrichment Camp (2-4 week options), Adolescent Fundamentals (4 weeks), Private in-person sessions, Online Coaching, Junior handling, and Board-n-Train (4-8 weeks). We begin all our dogs with positive motivation, we do not use e-collars (shock collars). We offer climate controlled rooms, large play paddocks, farm walks, and much more! We strongly believe (& science based evidence) that puppies properly introduced and socialized during their pre-adolescent stage will provide a positive means for a more balanced and stable dog as an adult. This is why we strongly recommend the Puppy Enrichment Camp, >9 weeks till 6 months of age during the puppy’s critical developmental stages. We have proven great success using these methods with our German Shepherds. All board/camp packages also include training for the owner/family on successful communication skills and handling at home.

We do offer special training occasionally for SV style conformation (shows), AKC Rally, Scent work, trial preparation, etc. Group classes are also starting up! We are 30 + years of training, handling, and titling dogs in multiple sports, service, and dog shows. Looking for manners and basic commands for a family companion, we do that too!
