Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Excellent level
Stonehill Kennels 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).

+8Shelly was absolutely wonderful! She always got back to me quickly and gave me every bit of information I will need for our new fur baby! It was such an easy and stress free process, if I ever want another German shepherd, I will definitely go to her! Her dogs are absolutely gorgeous and sweet too, I got to meet the parents and other dogs and they are amazing too! Loved my experience with all of them, everyone there was so friendly and kind. Thanks so much for our new baby Athena! We would be lost without her!! 💜
