CC German Shepherds
Meet the breeder
I'm Al, the breeder behind CC German Shepherds located in New York. We're a small hobby kennel of working line German Shepherds. We promote European Working line German Shepherds that are versatile, biddable, stable, and social. We strive to produce highly trainable puppies that possess strong pack drive, genetically solid nerve strength, and good orthopedic health. We promote active and athletic dogs, not hyper or hectic. We look forward to connecting with you!
Q. & A. with Al
What makes your program special?
I wouldn't breed dogs that I wouldn't want to personally own and live with. I strive to maintain balanced dogs that are capable of living as family companions but also have the ability to compete in a variety of competitive dog sports (obedience, agility, scent detection, dock diving, protection sports, etc).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.

Parent health testing

Excellent level

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.
