My family and I got our first german shepherd many years ago. We fell in love with her and the breed. I was so impressed by how intelligent, protective, and loyal that the breed was. I was concerned though about having young children and having a shepherd. My worries were soon replaced by love and admiration for the breed. At the present time, I have been breeding the GSD for 13 years!

My husband brings with him years of breeding the pitt bull breed. He has a wonderful love for all animals. My 2 children...Maria, 18 years old and Noah, 12 years old has a big part in helping with our fur-children also. All of us combined imprint the puppies from the day they are born. We are constantly holding, cuddling, and just sitting with the puppies. It is not a job to us and we do not do it for the money. We do it for the love of animals. We want people to be blessed with a good well rounded GSD as we have been blessed with. We expose the puppies to all types of circumstances, people of all ages, and other animals. Especially cats. I am a HUGE cat lover. I have 3 of them. Animals are a way of life for us. They bring us companionship and so much joy!!! Animals...dogs specifically, are a true blessing from God!


FYI, our dogs are never crated or kenneled as most other kennels do. Our dogs have 60,000 (fenced) square feet (1+ acre) to run and play with adequate shelter, water, food, etc. We also have another fenced area at the side of the house for females in heat or expecting. We also have special housing for our newborn puppies that is air conditioned/heated. All my dogs are current on vaccines and wormings. Pedigrees are NOT available online. Appointments must be made to view pedigrees of specific dogs. For all PUPPIES PURCHASED, a genetic/hip* warranty will be given at sale. Genetic/hip* warranty is NOT valid unless it contains my signature. *Genetic (1 year) hip (2 years)
