I'm Juan M., the breeder behind YJ Kennels located in Reading, PA. I offer top-quality German Shepherd puppies with a focus on health, form, and function. I believe quality is more important than quantity. I have high expectations for my puppies and make sure to place each one with an enriching and loving family complementary to their personality and ability!
Q. & A. with Juan
Why did you start breeding?
I decided to start a responsible, in-home breeding program in order to produce quality working dogs that also fit into a home setting. When breeding, I work hard to produce healthy, well-rounded puppies that can make other families and individuals just as happy as my dogs have made me!
What makes your program special?
I am a small breeder allowing me to give each of my puppies, dogs, and breedings the proper care and attention they each deserve. I am dedicated to providing happy, healthy, and well-socialized pups for others to welcome into their family. I love my pups and know you will love them, too!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
