My focus is on maintaining the German Shepherd Dog breed standard by raising structurally sound and correct puppies with excellent temperaments. I focus on health above all, as well as type, conformation, titles, and personality. I work hard to produce healthy, happy GSD puppies, and I take great pride in my breeding program.

Why did you start breeding?
