Q. & A. with Nikol

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We want to do our part to better the breed. Our breeding program focuses on maintaining the unique characteristics specific to German Shepherds while striving to produce puppies of superior intelligence, athleticism, and temperament. Our dogs have brought us so much love and happiness that we decided to start our own responsible breeding program by producing the highest quality dogs and providing them a wonderful life with wonderful families.

  • What makes your program special?

    We take responsible breeding very seriously. As breeders, we are stewards of the future of the breed, so we are careful to always have ethical breeding practices. We treasure each puppy in our program and give them all the attention and care that we possibly can. We work hard so our puppies can leave our home with confidence, ready to take on the world with their new family!

  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have stock coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
