Meet the breeder

I'm Julio H., the breeder behind Kriegshund-Zug German Shepherds located in Lillington, NC. True ambassador of the German Shepherd Dog, I breed, train and title my dogs. I hand select dogs for pets, sport or police work.

Q. & A. with Julio

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I was 17 years old when I took an interest in genetics, I was then hooked and started to work and breed my dogs. I then served for just under 10 years in the US Army, breeding took a back seat during that time in my life. I then started once again and have competed and trained my own stock.
  • What makes your program special?

    My breeding program is special because of my experience. Not too many breeders can say they breed, train and compete with their own dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

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