Meet the breeder

I'm Rick s., the breeder behind Vom Haus Schair-Finest Working line German Shepherd Puppies located in Gainesville, GA. I am the Regional Director of the SE for The German Shepherd Dog Club of America and EXTREMELY concerned about breeding heathy stable dogs that benefit the breed. I have been competing internationally and breeding since 1975 as well as training and breeding dogs for high level competition and productive family pets for personal protection, tracking, Police and Schutzhund/IPO competition. My dogs are bred to be correct in structure BUT also bred for their working ability and stability as the representatives of the breed.

Q. & A. with Rick

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My love for the German Shepherd breed drove me to being a breeder. I love creating dogs with the perfect temperament for home or work. I believe I have the best lines and dogs available to accomplish this.
  • What makes your program special?

    All dogs are titled, health tested, temperament tested and are selected by me personally from Germany. I do give full registration at sale. I do not breed handler aggression as the breed is a companion/protection dog.
  • 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 include sable, black, bi-color, and black and tan. 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.

    Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
