I'm Lisa N., the breeder behind Lianna German Shepherds located in North Haven, CT. Puppies are born & raised in our home, we feel this early exposure to normal every day noises & activities at a young age gives our pups a better start.
This FAMILY atmosphere helps the pups be well socialized especially with children. Each litter is carefully planned with an emphasis on Health, Temperament & Structural Soundness.
Lianna Shepherds believes in QUALITY not Quantity, we do not breed just to produce puppies.

Breeder-Reported Testing
Excellent level
Lianna 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
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.
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).
