Hanabrit German Shepherds
Meet the breeder
I'm Judy L., the breeder behind Hanabrit German Shepherds located in Highland, MI. There is a passion to our breeding program here, to preserve the old, pure bloodlines. I've continued to research the GSD bloodlines and strive to breed for the big, bold and beautiful look, with sound mind and body. The German Shepherd dog fits right in with the family environment—that is why my husband and I love them.
Q. & A. with Judy
Why did you start breeding?
The love of the breed drew me to them. Our farm was breeding Morgan horses too.What makes your program special?
I breed for a medium drive dog to fit in the family. Most of my breeding stock are therapy dogs. Naturally reared means that our dogs and their puppies are raised on a species-appropriate diet of raw meat, raw bones, and raw organs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
