I'm Ashley M., the breeder behind Pinegrove German Shepherds located in Upland, IN. We have restarted our program after our co-own prospect was missing hip sockets. We aim to breed dogs that are versatile and can excel in many different venues while primarily focusing on conformation, and nosework venues such as tracking and SAR.

What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have stock 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, bi-color, black and tan, and black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
