PRIOR LITTERS / PUPPIES

 

BREEDING

​

 

 

We take our breeding program very seriously both are Males and Females are vet checked prior to any breeding's, to

insure their health. Additionally, our females breed to the

age of six or have two litters which ever comes first.  Furthermore, about the fifth week of pregnancy are females are separated from the rest of the kennel; to limit her stress

for the final weeks until birth.  This allows her to become comfortable with the whelping area and  make it her own, again limiting stress on the mother and her litter. 

​

​

  We attempt to mate dogs which will complement each other in Size, Coloring, Temperament, and Drive, if one dog has a slight defect we attempt to find a dog with stronger genes in the defect area.  This is not always possible but we do our best.  These are some of the benefits of a smaller kennel, attention to detail to maintain the German Shepherd Standard. 

                                                                  TRAINING

​

 

 Our training, especially with the puppies, is at their pace. We are never going to use shock collars or force training to get them to perform.  We have seen with a few extra days the puppy WILL respond to the training and come along. We like to see the start of some training with the puppies at about 6 weeks of age.  

​

As the dogs progress and are expected to know and do more either in Obedience or Protection we will use pinch collars and at times a shock collar on a very limited basis. There are times these dogs need to be corrected and

sometimes the correction can be harsh, however, never prolonged or causing any injury. We want our Shepherds to respond to training and feel they have a job and having fun while working.  Therefore, positive re-enforcement is the best solution at any point of training. 

​

We do follow a training expectation. Once we know the GSD understands his training, when asked to perform, the GSD

will be given a command.  If there is no response or a lazy response, the second command comes with a slight

correction for the action.  On the third attempt there will be

a more aggressive command associated with the correction. Again, this is only after the GSD has a solid recognition of what is being asked and to refocus his attention, and never causing injury to the dog.

​

​

​

We offer several different types of boarding; the short overnight to the long weekend boarding.  Additionally, we offer stay and train boarding.  All boarded dogs are offered their own or shared kennels.  Standard kennel is a 6x6x6. 

All dogs are out to play several times a day either alone or with others based on the instructions of the client. All dogs during outside time are offered a number of different toy options, pools (weather permitting) and fetch, yards are

secure and locked at all times.  Boarded dogs need to have proof of all current vaccinations.  The kennel is climate controlled with heating and air conditioning depending on

the time of the year.  Additionally, the kennel is under

constant watch of video cameras and is locked and secured each night.  Our boarding space is limited, so make plans early in order to secure your space for long weekends and holidays.

   IMPORTED DOGS

​

​

  We do, on a regular basis, import dogs from German, Czech Republic, Japan, and Russia (there are restrictions on

Russia at this time).  If we don't have the dog you are looking for at the time, we are able to locate dogs from other breeders around the United States. We have established contacts overseas who are very willing to work with us on importing your dog.  Additionally, we use a broker in New York who handles all the paperwork for customers and make the transition of picking up the dog at the airport very simple.  Furthermore, we have shipped dogs all over the Unites States from our kennel and those that have been imported.
