Q. & A. with Abishai
Why did you start breeding?
As a dog lover and outdoor enthusiast, our German Shepherds are a perfect fit. Raising working line German Shepherds is a dream come to life. I get to spend time with these great dogs, fishing and playing fetch at the lake. If you are looking for a dog as home protection dog or for Schutzhund, let me know how we can answer questions.
What makes your program special?
Our breeding program is set apart by merit of our breeding stock. World class Czech and DDR imported lines, most every dog in our pedigrees going back generations have been IGP/Schutzhund titled. Focusing on home companion dogs, trained protection dogs and dogs for Schutzhund sport, our dogs are ideal for a wide range of companion and protection situations.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
