Q. & A. with Onji

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My passion for breeding dogs was ignited during my childhood, watching my mother breed English Bulldogs. However, it was my love for German Shepherds that ultimately inspired me to pursue breeding as a passion. Determined to produce only the best, I embarked on a journey to breed not just German Shepherds, but exceptional quality German Shepherds. With dedication and a deep-seated commitment to excellence, I'm proud to say that I've achieved my goal of producing top-tier German Shepherds that will bring joy and companionship to their new families.
  • What makes your program special?

    As a responsible and ethical breeder, I firmly believe that we hold a critical responsibility in shaping the future of the dog ecosystem. As guardians of the German Shepherd lineage, it is our duty to breed and nurture exceptional dogs that will continue to thrive for generations to come. My unwavering commitment to preserving the line of these incredible companions is matched only by my passion for producing top-quality German Shepherds that will enrich the lives of their new owners. With a deep sense of pride and purpose, I strive to ensure that every puppy finds its way into the best possible home, where it can flourish as a beloved and cherished lifelong companion.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

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

    Our puppies include sable, black, and black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • 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).

    I have no complaints about the pup and the breeder. Pup is as health as can be and is rapidly growing. I don’t mind driving hours again to get a pup.

    My experience with Onji has been an amazing from the start. Her communication, knowledge, and having him here has exceeded my expectations. She was responsive upon my original inquiry to answer with any information asked for. She kept me up to date throughout the whole process of transporting as well. Everything she has noted about Tam Tam has proven to be true. Besides him being a stunner, he was confident from day one, never shying from anything, was able to settle in quickly and show his spunk. He has everything I was looking for in a shepherd should from looks, to drive, temperament, and overall demeanor. Even after Tam has arrived, Onji has been checking in to see how he is. This is what dealing with a breeder should be! If you are looking for a breeder that delivers what they say, Onji AND the dogs she provides are wonderful!

    Onji’s communication was excellent and always prompt. I encountered some issues with the payment on my end, but overall, the dog’s health is great. I’m grateful to Onji for taking care of him while he was waiting for his new home.

    Onji was incredible to work with throughout this entire process. When I first inquired, we were dealing with letting our adult female German shepherd go due to terminal cancer. I was more than pleased with how she handled this situation with me, made me feel super comfortable, loved how knowledgeable she was, she mapped out details of her dogs & the process of adopting a new German shepherd dog! Her dogs are smart & absolutely gorgeous too! This is your stop for the best gsd for your home. We will be referring you to others & using you in the future for any other gsd puppies. Thank you for making this process easy, enjoyable and seamless. Special thanks to you for giving me my beautiful sable baby boy Balto. 💙
