Meet the breeder

I'm Taylor A., the breeder behind Jaxinhaus German Shepherds located in Universal City, TX. The main focus for Jaxinhaus is to produce well-rounded, confident, and stable dogs that are able to flow seamlessly between working and home life. Health, temperament, and versatility are of the utmost importance to us. All of our dogs live a family life with us when not working, cats included!

Q. & A. with Taylor

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have a passion for the breed and absolutely loved what it had to offer. I wanted to continue proving how special the German Shepherd is, while actively working to better the breed. I owe everything to my first Shepherd Jax, and the program name is in honor of him.
  • What makes your program special?

    I go above and beyond for my dogs, puppies, and am always there for my puppy buyers. I provide a contract that states that I will always take a puppy back if things unfortunately didn’t work out, while also including a 26 month health guarantee. All of my dogs are fully health tested and temperament tested before breeding. Puppies are exposed to various stimuli like cats, dogs, loud noises, etc.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies include stock and long coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include sable, black, black and tan, and bi-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Jaxinhaus German Shepherds reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for German Shepherds.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    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, Vet Wellness Exam

    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.

  • DNA Disease Panel, Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A)

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
