I'm Barry H., the breeder behind Von Kopfe Schutzengel Kennels located in Henry County, VA. My passion is to breed top-quality puppies and connect them with loving forever homes. I have been breeding for over 15 years! Temperament is our number one priority when breeding, and we aim to produce puppies that are healthy and will have calm, loving personalities. I am dedicated to preparing my puppies to thrive as their best selves, and I work with integrity with everything that I set my mind to!
Q. & A. with Barry
Why did you start breeding?
German Shepherds are an incredible breed, and I decided to start my breeding program in order to preserve the wonderful qualities I found in my dogs. I hope to help families find their puppies from responsible and ethical sources to help build a better and safer world for our dogs!
What makes your program special?
I have over 35 years working with German Shepherds and strive to provide the highest quality of breed standards. I raise all of my dogs and puppies with respect, love, nutrition, and cleanliness and deeply value the input of Veterinarian advice in my program. These dogs can do it all and I make sure to foster that versatility beginning from the moment they're born!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
