We use a number of different dog registries.  If one in particular is important to you for your dog to be registered with please let us know in advance. 

We offer puppies starting at $1,000.  We do not sell puppies with breeding rights or full registration.  Our German Shepherds are purebred dogs.

We provide a 2-year genetic warranty on most puppies.  We do not require that you return your puppy in the event it is found to have a genetic defect.  Please see that specific section of our warranty for more information.

We suggest that as soon as you know when you will be getting your puppy that you schedule a vet visit.  Vet check ups must be within the first 3 (three) working days of the date of your contract.  If you do not take the puppy to the vet within the 3 (three) working days the entire contract becomes null and void so this is a very important appointment!

Showing Your Dog - some things you should know:

Please be aware that most of our puppies are considered “out of standard” according to the AKC German Shepherd breed standard.  We breed for and prefer a larger, stockier, straighter backed German Shepherd.  Unfortunately, that is not how the breed standard is written in most kennel clubs.  However, long coat GSD’s may be shown with the United Kennel Club.  If you show your puppy while he is still is young you may be able to put a title on him.   Once the puppies are older they usually become too tall to fit within the breed standard and get penalized for it in the show ring.  This doesn't mean you couldn't win a ribbon but you should be aware that you may be starting out with a penalization against your dog.  If you were considering showing your dog seriously you may want to look at other breeders who specialize breeding to the German Shepherd standard.  Also just for your information, showing your dog once it has been spayed/neutered is not allowed unless you show in a spay/neuter class.  There are plenty of other activities to get involved in with your German Shepherd too.  See this web site http://dogplay.com/Activities/index.html  or Google “dog activities” for many ideas on what you can do with your dog!
