Parent health testing
Excellent level
Aus Dem Meer German Shepherds reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for German Shepherds.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Temperament Test
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Disease Panel, 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).

We brought Rex home this weekend and couldn't be happier! The breeder was wonderful to work with from start to finish—responsive, knowledgeable, and clearly devoted to her dogs. Rex is healthy, confident, sweet-natured, and exactly the puppy we were hoping for. We highly recommend Aus Dem Meer German Shepherds to anyone looking for a well-bred German Shepherd and a positive puppy-buying experience. Thank you for our beautiful boy, Rex! He will definitely be spoiled and loved. ❤
