Excellent level

    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.

  • DNA Disease Panel, 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).

    We had a really positive experience with Marty at T and M Elite Europeans German Shepherds. One of the things that initially drew me to Marty was the reason he became involved in breeding German Shepherds. As a former police officer, he had a K-9 who developed hip problems, and he wanted to build a breeding program focused on producing healthier dogs and reducing those issues. He was also, by far, one of the most responsive breeders I contacted. From the beginning, Marty was very generous with his knowledge of the breed. We talked quite a bit about feeding, training, temperament, and our particular situation because we already had a very energetic seven-month-old German Shepherd puppy at home. He gave us thoughtful advice about gender, temperament, and how to introduce Jett into our home. He was always available by phone and kept us updated with pictures and videos along the way. Temperament was especially important to us because our older puppy, Bram, is a bit of a crackhead, and Marty told us that Jett was one of the calmer puppies in the litter. He was absolutely right. Jett is a lovely, calm little girl, although she definitely has a spicy side as well. She and Bram absolutely adore each other. We still keep their play sessions short and highly supervised because Bram does not entirely appreciate his own size and strength, but the bond between them was obvious very quickly. Jett even gets quite gobby if Bram is wandering around the house instead of coming to lie beside her kennel. Jett came to us clean, comfortable with handling, accustomed to normal household activity, people and other dogs, and with some early crate experience. She has settled in beautifully. Her appetite and food motivation have improved since coming home, and she really enjoys her training sessions. Pickup was easy and straightforward, and Marty has continued to stay in touch since Jett came home. We have shared pictures and updates, and he has continued to send us photos and videos of Jett's siblings, her mum, and even his newest imported German Shepherd! Overall, Marty was knowledgeable, accessible, straightforward, and genuinely invested in where his puppies were going and how they were doing afterwards. We would absolutely consider getting another German Shepherd from T and M Elite Europeans in the future.

    Ronald was very responsive. He likes to talk about your puppy and how they are developing. He gave lots of good information and tips regarding training and overall well being of your puppy. When I got my puppy she was quiet and composed, she didn’t freak out being carried around and she didn’t make any noises on the drive home either. She sits perfectly every time. Proof that Ronald knows what he is doing.
