I'm Lorena Z., the breeder behind Zaragoza German Shepherds located in Stockton, CA. The health and status of every dog I have bred is of utmost importance. I am proud of the temperament and conformation of my puppies. The key is matching healthy, happy puppies with loving families. Our babies are raised in a clean, safe and loving environment who will prosper in their new homes.
Q. & A. with Lorena
Why did you start breeding?
I had my own German Shepherd and fell in love with the breed as a child. I wanted to do my part as a responsible breeder and produce healthy, well-rounded pups. Know that by taking one of my puppies home with you, you will experience loyalty and love as you have never before known.
What makes your program special?
We are located in Northern California. I am very dedicated to what I do and what I aim to achieve as a breeder. I work with passion, heart, and integrity. Our furry babies are raised in door and outdoor with love. They are well-behaved and very smart! I truly want what's best for the German Shepherd line. I'm so excited to connect with you and your family!

Our puppies include stock and long coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Excellent level
Zaragoza 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.
Full Embark Panel
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).
