Our working line puppies generally range from $2000 - $3000 and show lines generally range from $2800 - $3800. These are general price ranges and pricing can vary depending on pedigrees and individual puppies. Deposits are required in order to be placed on the waiting list and are non-refundable, although deposits can be transferred to another upcoming litter, if requested or if there are not enough puppies in a litter to accommodate everyone on our list. Deposits can be transferred no more than twice and will only be held for two years before it is forfeited. Puppies generally will be sold as "pet quality" unless evaluated as "working quality" by a professional trainer. Most puppies would do well in ACTIVE companion homes and in homes wanting to start in club level Schutzhund (IPO) Dog sports. All puppies come with pre-paid AKC registration, litter pedigree, micro-chipped, Up-to-Date on vaccinations, de-wormed, started on heart-worm medication, vet health record, puppy gift basket (bowl, leash, collar, food, toy, blanket, etc), and hip/health guarantee per written contract. All puppies sold will be either DM "Clear" or "Carrier" - Puppies will NOT be "AT RISK" for DM per parentage.
All puppies are sold with LIMITED AKC registration which can be converted to FULL registration once the puppy passes the required health certifications as specified in the written contract. This is done in order to protect the German Shepherd breed from being plagued with genetic health problems due to poor breeding practices.
Deposits are $500.00 and are non-refundable. We accept Zelle, Venmo and Personal Checks for Deposits. We can also provide a link to pay via Good Dog.

Understanding Hip and Elbow ratings
Since the AKC requires no genetic health testing for hips/elbows, we use the SV model (passing hips required in Germany since 1966). Passing hips range from A-Normal to Noch-Zugelassen. For Elbows, passing ranges from Normal (0/0) to ED Noch-Zugelassen (1/1). Below are the charts to help explain the ratings.
THIS LITTER IS RESERVED
READY TO GO HOME JUNE 30TH, 2026
THIS IS OUR LAST LITTER GOING HOME IN 2026
This is a planned repeat mating between our Czech import, VD Donar Skocicka samota, ZVV1 and our Princess Sophia vom Haus Middleton (call name Sophie). Donar was imported from the Czech Republic, where he received his "Very Good" show rating and "ZVV1" working title. Additionally, Donar was evaluated as "recommended for breeding" by a Judge while in the Czech Republic. Donar has certified a-normal hips/elbows, is DM Clear, Spondy-0 and is not at risk for developing 256 genetically identified illnesses via Embark testing.
Sophie is the daughter of our Czech Import Zea Kateko, ZVV1 and is a descendent of our Czech Import Uma z Holykova, IPO2 and my West German import, Tex vom Erlenbusch, Sch1, Police Dog. Sophie is a heavy-boned, powerful girl with beautiful structure. She has a very nice "off" switch, no handler aggression and gets along well with both male and female dogs. Sophie has OFA certified "Good" hips and "normal" elbows. Additionally, Sophie is DM Clear and is not at risk for developing 256 genetically identified illnesses via Embark testing.
These puppies should have excellent natural protective instincts and drives. The last mating in 2025 resulted in three females and three males. Those puppies went to family homes with children, other dogs and cats. We suspect these puppies would do well in protection, competitive dog sports, SAR, therapy, service work and in active companion homes with previous GSD experience (or other herding/working breeds) or with people willing to work with a trainer to better understand the needs of this particular breed. They will be extremely intelligent and focused with excellent trainability. All of our dogs are exposed to a variety of adults, children, other dogs, cats, chickens, etc. for maximum socialization. All puppies will be stock coat (short) as Sophie does not carry the gene to produce long coats. Colors expected are sable, bi-color and black/tan.
The pricing for this litter is $2500 for either males or females.
Deposits are $500 and placing on waiting list is based on when deposits are received. Final payment is due at pick-up and can be made via Zelle, Venmo or cash. We also offer a payment plan through Klarna for qualified applicants that allows for up to $2000 in four interest-free installments (please inquire in advance). If we chose a puppy from this litter, we will have first pick. Puppy picks are done when puppies are 7-8 weeks old and temperaments are more visible. A $200 discount is offered on this litter to military veterans, first responders (Police, Fire, EMS) and repeat customers. If interested, please contact us for additional information. Waiting list is open and deposits are being accepted for this litter.
Shipping via Alaska Airlines is approximately $700. Shipping costs include appropriate size crate, USDA health certificate required to fly and airline fees/taxes. Ground transportation can also be arranged for additional costs.
Puppies should be available to go home when they are 8 weeks old.

Maddie is a coated black/red WGSL with a tad bit of Czech & West German working lines mixed in a few generations back for the purpose of outbreeding. We imported Maddie's maternal grandmother, Meggy von der Fangschleuse, IPO1, from Germany and her great, great Grandpa was my very first shepherd, Tex vom Erlenbusch, Sch1, who was also imported from Germany. Maddie's sire, Arrko Robixson, IPO1, is a coated WGSL imported from Poland. Maddie has OFA certified "Good" hips, "normal" elbows and is DM/Embark "Clear".
The sire, SG1 Jenser vom Nikberger Land, BH, IPO1, CGC (call name “Jack”) is a solid black, long coated show-line shepherd imported from Poland. Jack was raised on a farm and exposed to all types of animals, including cats, other dogs, horses, cows, wallabies, etc. He’s a very sound-minded, stable boy who enjoys squeaky toys and hanging out with his family. Jack is crazy about water and the hose, which he has passed down to some of his previous puppies. Jack has a-normal hips/elbows and is DM/Embark “Clear”.
The pricing for this litter is $3000 for either males or females.

Ground transportation can also be arranged and pricing varies based on distance and transporter. Ground transport for puppies should only be for short distances or via private transport to avoid spending an extensive amount of time traveling.
Puppies should be available to go home when they are 8 weeks old. Puppies come with pre-paid AKC registration, microchip, dewormed, vet exam, age-appropriate vaccinations and a written health/hip guarantee.

The dam is Yara vom Haus Middleton, from our "Y" litter with our Czech Imports, VD Donar Skocicka samota, ZVV1 and Zea Kateko, ZVV1. Yara has moderate to high energy and moderate drives. She’s incredibly smart, as well as super affectionate and loving. She gets along with all other dogs, males and females alike and is very gentle and playful with our puppies. She enjoys chasing her kong and splashing in the water on our 20-acre ranch. As for health, Yara has certified OFA "excellent" hips and "normal" elbows. She is DM "clear" and has been Embark DNA tested for 256 illnesses known to have a genetic component. She is a Scott’s Syndrome carrier but since the sire is NOT a carrier, these puppies will not be at risk.
The sire is Polish import SG Jenser vom Nikberger Land, BH, IPG1 (call name “Jack”). Jack has low-moderate drive and energy and was raised on a farm with various animals, including cats, other dogs, horses, birds, cows, donkeys, etc. He’s a very sound-minded, stable boy who enjoys squeaky toys and hanging out with his family. He's a maniac when it comes to water, which is a trait he's passed down to his offspring. He does have both his working and show titles and has a-normal hips and elbows. He is also DM Clear and Embark Clear.
These puppies will be a combination of working and show lines. Coloring should be mostly solid black with some sables and bicolors based on genetic traits. This litter will also produce both long and stock coats. If you are absolutely set on a particular coat length, we do not recommend getting on this waitlist as we won't know coat lengths until about six weeks of age. We suspect these puppies will have low-moderate drive and moderate energy. Puppies should have high trainability and would do best in active pet homes or in entry-level type dog sports like Barn Hunt, Fast Cat, Trick Dog, etc. Potential for service work and scent work.
The pricing for this litter is $2800 for either males or females.
Deposits are $500 and placing on waiting list is based on when deposits are received. Final payment is due at pick-up and can be made via Zelle, Venmo or cash.
