I'm Mitzi B., the breeder behind Southern Legacy German Shepherds located in Monroe, GA. I breed large, old-fashioned, straight-backed, German Shepherds with a special focus on health and temperament. Pups are sold as companions and pets that are bred be a part of a family. With their low-medium drive, my pups are easy to train and possess the natural instinct to protect their home.
Q. & A. with Mitzi
What makes your program special?
My dogs are all larger than the breed standard but with no compromise to their health. All my dogs are medium to low energy, making them easy to train and ideally suited for families. I do not breed: dogs that are hyper, dogs that show any signs of aggression, working dogs, high drive dogs, or dogs with excessive angulation.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
