Getting a puppy from Diana

Diana has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

Diana partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 7 weeks old.

“Once we complete the Volhard Aptitude Test at seven weeks old, we will submit results and personality descriptions of all available puppies to buyers in the order of the waitlist. We will then discuss our recommendations and work with the buyer to pick their perfect puppy together.”

Price

Puppy prices include a $500 non-refundable deposit and between $1,700 - $3,500 final payment, before taxes & fees.
Pay over time with Klarna.

“Price includes pre-paid AKC registration, de-worming, age appropriate vaccinations, vet exam, microchip, gift basket (containing current food, scented blanket, leash/collar/harness, toy, bowl) and written hip/health guarantee. Deposits can be moved to another litter if gender/temperament requested is not available for up to two years. On rare occasions where we won't be having any litters for an extended period of time and don't have the appropriate gender available, we will consider a deposit refund on a case by case basis.”

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

VHM German Shepherds 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.

  • 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).
