Our working line puppies generally range from $1800 - $2750 and show lines generally range from $2500 - $3500. 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.
We are a breeder of European show and working-line German Shepherds. We raise 3 to 5 litters each year at our home. Puppies are shown by appointment only.
For those clients who are unable to to travel, delivery is available within a 250 mile radius for an additional $30 per hour drive time to cover our time, fuel and additional travel expenses. Delivery dates are subject to weather conditions and scheduling. If we are delivering multiple puppies to one location, we can discount travel expenses. Please contact us via email or by telephone to discuss options and to set up personal delivery. We do provide periodic FREE delivery to the Redding area. Again, free Redding delivery is subject to weather conditions, road conditions and breeder scheduling.
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.
SEVEN PUPPIES WHELPED ON INTERNATIONAL DOG DAY - AUGUST 26TH, 2024
Puppies will be ready to go home on or after October 21st, 2024
ONE Female still available.
**This will be our last litter available in 2024**
We are very excited to announce the arrival of our J2 Litter. On 08/26/2024 (International Dog Day), we welcomed four baby girls and three baby boys to our dog family. All will be stock coat, although they will all be carriers of the long coat gene so slightly longer "plushy" coats may be present (what I consider "medium" length). Males - one solid black and two sables. Females- one solid black and three sables.
The dam is Chase vom Haus Middleton, from our "Y" litter with our Czech Imports, VD Donar Skocicka samota, ZVV1 and Zea Kateko, ZVV1. Chase is a moderate to high energy, medium drive dog who loves to have fun. Her favorite toy is her Jolly Ball, she loves water and chasing the quads around our 20 acre ranch. She's a happy girl who is incredibly smart and excels in her training classes. Chase is an athletic, long, lean sable girl with a ton of personality and intense focus that I'm sure she will pass down to her puppies. As for health, Chase 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.
The sire is G Hadhafang Vom Adlerhimmel. PD1, P1, P1S, BH, OB1, FO, RN, UJJ, UNJ, CGCA, Diabetic Alert Dog (Call name "Natsu" - owned and loved by Dakonic German Shepherds). Natsu is a very sound-minded dog with countless accomplishments. Natsu is a Diabetic Alert Service Dog for his handler, an established dog trainer/behavioralist. He is also proficient in herding sheep, cows, goats and chickens. He has titles in obedience, protection, dock diving, barn hunt and a variety of other dog sports. That all being said, one of his favorite activities is loving up on kids, especially his little human brothers. Natsu has OFA "Good" hips and "Normal" elbows. He is also DM "clear" and has been Embark DNA tested for 256 illnesses known to have a genetic component.
These little nuggets will be ready to go home at 8 weeks old on or after October 21st 2024. We expect high trainability and intelligence, excellent focus and moderate drives/energy in these puppies. Puppies will be exposed to cats, other dogs, children and a variety of environments before going to their new homes.
