Meet the breeder

I'm Sandra P., the breeder behind Von Pasch German Shepherds located in Valley Springs, SD. Having dogs in our lives is such a blessing. We find so much fulfillment in providing that same companionship to other homes! We cherish each of our dogs and puppies, and we do everything we can to make sure that they get the best lives possible. That includes everything from choosing healthy parents with good temperaments, to proper socialization and daily care, to placing them in loving homes with wonderful families. We strive to provide each of our puppies and their families with a truly positive experience!

Q. & A. with Sandra

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I used to breed labs years ago and then moved and had to get out of it. I really missed the whole process, so when I fell in love with my first long coat German Shepherd, I decided to get into breeding on a fairly small level. I will never be huge - as my idea is to do it small, and do it well.

  • What makes your program special?

    I put a ton of love and care in raising my puppies. You will never find anyone that spends more time in the whelping box than I do! I also have an older son that helps me a lot, and he is somewhat obsessed with the puppies as well! We work opposite times, so between the two of us, we spend a LOT of time with them, socializing them, getting them used to different noises, surfaces, etc. I do a little crate training/potty training at the end - before they go to their new homes.

  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have long 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, black and red, and white. 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.

Getting a puppy from Sandra

Sandra has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

Sandra partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 6 weeks old.

“I allow people to pick their puppies at the age of 6 weeks. This is done in the order that the deposits are placed. I update pictures and videos as we go. If you live far away and you have an iPhone, Face timing is a great tool to actually see the puppies, and how they interact. Otherwise, I can do multiple videos. If you live close enough and can come pick yours out in person, great!”

Price

Puppy prices include a $500 non-refundable deposit and between $1,900 - $3,000 final payment, before taxes & fees.
Pay over time with Klarna.

“The base price is for pet/limited registration. It would be an additional $500 for breeding/full registration. The full registration is for the majority of my puppies (All litters except the Uri/Jazzy litters - as Uri is AKC registered, but Jazzy is a Berger Blanc Suisse. Both however, are White Swiss Shepherds.) The price includes deworming every two weeks from date of birth, and their 8 week shot, and microchip. (Sometimes I don't in bigger litters, unless buyer requests it.) Puppies will have their nails trimmed bi-weekly (so at least 3 times!), have at least 3 baths, and have sensitivity training to different noises including thunderstorms, fireworks, and nail guns. They will be exposed to various other noises as well. They will also have experience with different surfaces, obstacles, hanging swing, etc. I love spending time with my puppies and exposing them to as much as I can! It is a non-refundable deposit. However, if for some reason you change your mind and decide to wait for a future litter, or a life altering event happens, the deposit can be transferred to another litter so that you do not lose that amount.”

Contract & health guarantee

Sandra may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Sandra offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Sandra directly.

All contracts are handled securely through Good Dog.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Von Pasch German Shepherds 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.

  • Temperament Test

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

  • 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).

    My partner and I had been looking for a great German Shepherd breeder for a while but were having such a hard time choosing. As soon as we found Sandra’s profile, we just knew we wanted to get a puppy from her. We waited about six months from putting down our deposit to bringing our puppy home, and it was so worth the wait. We definitely came in with a million questions and were probably a little picky about temperament, but Sandra was incredibly patient through all of it. She took the time to explain things, kept us updated, and made the whole process feel really comfortable and exciting. It was obvious how much she cares for and loves her dogs. We ended up with the most beautiful puppy who truly feels perfect for us. Our puppy (who we named Juniper) already knew how to sit and was pretty much potty trained when she came home. She has had a couple of accidents, but honestly that was on us for not fully understanding what she was trying to communicate yet. She is SO smart and genuinely loves being trained and learning new things. Juniper is everything we hoped for and more, and you could clearly see how loved she was before she even came home with us. If we ever decide to get another dog, we will absolutely be coming back to Sandra.
