Squires German Shepherds were very easy to work with. They answered all of my questions and continue to be available if needed. My GS has the BEST temperament. She is bright, friendly, and protective when needed. She is great with children and other dogs. She loves chasing birds, swimming, and running. Best decision our family made!
