LakeView Shepherds
Meet the breeder
I'm Jennifer B., the breeder behind LakeView Shepherds located in Battle Lake, MN. Having German Shepherds in our lives is such a blessing. We cherish each of our dogs, puppies, and our puppies families. We work hard and do everything we can to make sure that they get the best lives possible. We are selective whom we breed and look beyond the parents. It is important for us to produce German Shepherds that are a pleasure to live with, are easy to train, have good social skills, have structural soundness, and are good examples of the breed. We strive to provide each of our puppies and their families with a truly positive experience.

Parent health testing
Excellent level
LakeView 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
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.
Multiple Drug Sensitivity (MDR1), 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).
