Von Hoene Heritage Shepherds
Meet the breeder
I'm Jennie H., the breeder behind Von Hoene Heritage Shepherds located in Seymour, IN. We are dedicated to producing exceptional, healthy German Shepherds that can excel in professional settings and in the home. We breed with a focus on temperament and ability, and we only breed dogs that are healthy and have proven themselves to be outstanding at their jobs. Our puppies are adaptable and trainable, and we train and socialize them while they are with us to prepare them for their future roles. These dogs can do it all, and we make sure to foster that versatility beginning from the moment they're born.
