Q. & A. with Aliyah
Why did you start breeding?
In college I was training horses and riding competitively in Dressage. I helped not only train and ride but managed the breeding g program as well. I decided after being medically disabled that I was going to train, show, and breed German Shepherds. Not only am I able to fully commit to my breeding program but love the fact that I get to do it with my family!
What makes your program special?
We strive to have the most amazing pedigrees. I carefully look at bloodlines, temperament, health, and titles!
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have stock coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
