Meet the breeder

I'm Ady D., the breeder behind Atlas Shepherds located in Oxford, AR. We aim to produce dogs that can measure to our highest standards of conformation, character and health. We take tremendous care in producing stronger, healthier and smarter dogs for the benefit of our family and yours with the goal of honoring this truly majestic breed.

Q. & A. with Ady

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My grandfather used to breed and train GSD, and he shared his passion for the breed with me from an early age. It is an honor to represent this breed and create opportunities for others to experience the same joy I've found in raising these wonderful dogs.
  • What makes your program special?

    We aim to produce a GSD that is true to its original purpose and look. We own a limited amount of dogs that we carefully select and match to produce better and stronger representatives of the breed​. When you take one of our puppies home, you'll get a dog with a solid conformation built for endurance as well as force, an elegant animal with a friendly but fearless character, and a healthy dog that will be a lifetime friend and companion.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include sable and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

  • Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A)

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
