We are on a temporary pause with our breeding program. We will update once we continue.

Whether you are totally new to German shepherds or are a veteran owner, there is always something new to learn. In this article, we discuss OFA scores and the importance of OFA hip and elbow testing. We also cover a major issue in German shepherds which is DM(Degenerative Myelopathy). If you have questions about either of these topics, or would like to read up on them, click the button above!
Whether this is your first time owning a dog, your new to the GSD breed, or you would just like some touch ups or tips to help in the training process, we have you covered. Click the button above to view an extensive list of training do's and don'ts. The guide is our own personal view and things we have found best, so everyone may not agree to the entirety of the guide, but we are here to help everyone in the best of our abilities. If you don't agree with something in the guide, by no means do you have to follow it. We just want to make owning your new GSD the best it can possibly be!
Dogs of all breeds and sorts are very different than humans. Dogs can not have many of the foods humans eat. Some foods are harmless, but others are very dangerous and can cause major problems. We have put together a guide of safe and unsafe foods for your pets. By no means do we encourage people feeding their pets human foods, but this list is for those people who do like to give their pets 'treats' and we want to make sure they know what their pet can and can not have.
