Meet the breeder

I'm Amanda W., the breeder behind WILDWOOD GERMAN SHEPHERDS located in Canton, TX. Small home-based program in Canton, TX producing long-coat GSDs with excellent temperament & health. Our dogs come from carefully selected European bloodlines & are health tested. Pups are raised in our home with early socialization. We take time to match each puppy with the right home & lifestyle.

Q. & A. with Amanda

  • Why did you start breeding?

    GSDs have always been part of my life. I grew up around them & fell in love with their loyalty, intelligence, & personality. Over time that passion turned into a desire to raise them the right way with thoughtful breeding, strong bloodlines, & a focus on temperament. What started as a love for the breed grew into our small family program focused on raising confident, well-socialized companions.
  • What makes your program special?

    It's truly a family and team effort. Our boys help care for the puppies, which teaches them responsibility & respect for animals. I’m grateful to have a strong team that supports the program & helps ensure every puppy gets the attention they deserve. Because our program is small, each puppy gets individual attention & is raised in our home with daily interaction & early socialization.
  • 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, and black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Amanda

Amanda 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.

Amanda 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.

“At Wildwood German Shepherds, matching the right puppy to the right family is something we take very seriously — and very personally. Beginning around 6 weeks of age, we start carefully evaluating each puppy’s temperament and personality. We look at confidence, affection level, energy, drive, adaptability, and how each puppy interacts with people, new environments, and their littermates. Every puppy is unique, and every family is unique. Some families want a hiking partner and active companion, some are looking for a show or sport prospect, and others simply want a loyal best friend to grow up with their children. Because we spend so much time with our puppies from birth, we truly get to know them — and that allows us to guide families toward the puppy that will fit naturally into their lifestyle. Our goal is long-term success, happiness, and harmony in your home. Temperament and compatibility always come first, and we are here to support you every step of the way.”

Price

Puppy prices include a $1,000 non-refundable deposit and between $3,500 - $4,000 final payment, before taxes & fees.
Pay over time with Klarna.

“When you take your puppy home our main goal is for the puppy to be happy and healthy. Your puppy will have at least 2 rounds of shots, be dewormed, and will have a health certificate from our vet. A $1,000 non-refundable deposit secures your puppy. If the chosen litter or gender isn’t available, your deposit can transfer to the next available litter.”

Amanda 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.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

WILDWOOD 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).

    We couldn’t be happier with our experience getting our one-year-old German Shepherd, Shane, from Amanda. Shane is everything you’d hope for in a German Shepherd—smart, loyal, friendly, and alert, with a strong desire to please. He came to us already very well trained and socialized, which made the transition into our home seamless. He gets along wonderfully with kids and other dogs, including our two-year-old female German Shepherd. In fact, one of our favorite moments is seeing them play together—like in the photo of them going nose-to-nose. Shane is not only a great companion but also a beautiful, well-bred dog who has become an incredible addition to our family. Amanda herself is an absolute pleasure to work with. She is knowledgeable, responsive, and clearly passionate about what she does. She answered all of our questions promptly and made the entire process of getting Shane smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. If you’re looking for a German Shepherd who will be both a loyal companion and a cherished member of your family, I highly recommend working with Amanda. You won’t find a better breeder or a better experience.

    I found Amanda on good dog and was able to get my dream dog through her! I’d always wanted a German shepherd since I was a little girl and I was finally able to get one with her help. She sent pictures and updates on my puppy from even before he was born. He’s is an absolute sweetheart and the perfect example of Velcro dog. He doesn’t let me take two steps away from him without him following and I LOVE IT!

    Getting our puppy from Wildwood German Shepherds turned out to be one of the best experiences we could have asked for. From the very beginning, Amanda made the entire process feel easy and welcoming. You can tell right away that she truly cares about her dogs and about the families they go to. When we first reached out, Amanda was incredibly friendly and helpful. She took the time to answer all of our questions and never made us feel rushed. She explained the process clearly and helped us understand what to expect while we waited for our puppy to grow and be ready to go home. Every week she sent us updates about the puppies. She would share photos and videos so we could watch them grow. Those little updates meant a lot because it made us feel connected to our puppy even before we brought her home. It also showed how much care and attention she puts into raising them. Amanda was always patient and kind whenever we had questions, and she genuinely seemed excited for us. Her and her family truly want the puppies to go to good homes. Overall, the experience with Wildwood German Shepherds was amazing! Amanda’s friendliness, constant communication, and dedication to the puppies made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. It’s clear that she cares deeply about the dogs she raises, and we are incredibly grateful for the positive experience and for bringing such a wonderful puppy into our family.

    We had such a wonderful experience with Amanda and her family. From the very beginning, they were welcoming, knowledgeable, and patient with all of my questions. It’s clear how much love and care they put into raising their dogs. The puppies are healthy, well-socialized, and so full of personality. What stood out most was how much of a family effort it is. You can tell the puppies are raised in a loving environment, surrounded by people who truly care for them. The updates, pictures, and communication throughout the process made everything so smooth and reassuring. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’m so grateful to them for helping bring such a sweet new addition into our home. Highly recommend!
