Meet the breeder

I'm Christine M., the breeder behind Vom Musselman German Shepherds and Forte Pembroke Welsh Corgis located in Leo, IN. The high standards we hold allow us to produce high quality, healthy puppies that fit the breed standard and are able to compete and work in many venues and, of course, be excellent companions. All of our puppies are raised in the home and are socialized with other dogs, children, and pets.

Q. & A. with Christine

  • What makes your program special?

    Our puppies are familiarized to sounds of the household including vacuum cleaners, doorbells, dishwashers, and all the sounds in a busy home! This socialization and desensitization to sounds make for a well rounded, happy puppy, and happy owner. All of our puppies go home with 1st shots and a 2-year guarantee as well as discounted training. We are committed to raising the best of the breed!
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our German Shepherd puppies include stock and plush coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our German Shepherd puppies are black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Great level

Vom Musselman German Shepherds and Forte Pembroke Welsh Corgis 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.

  • 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).
