I'm Sheila M., the breeder behind Von Christel Haus German Shepherds located in Edmond, OK.

Q. & A. with Sheila

Why did you start breeding?
I’ve looked long and hard for a quality stud that will compliment my females qualities. I want to do my part to better the breed. My breeding program focuses on maintaining the unique characteristics specific to German Shepard's while striving to produce puppies of superior qualities, including a strong back and hips and a great temperament, solid working drive as well as family companions.
What makes your program special?
The Dam is raw fed and minimally vaccinated. The pups will be raised with scent imprinting and Puppy Culture, raw fed and appropriate vaccines using AVIDOG Nomographs. These pups will be a beautiful balance of WGSL and working lines for a straight strong spine and strong hips. We take great care planning each litter to ensure we are producing puppies that are excellent representations of the breed.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
