Sabrina K.

Breeder of German Shepherds

Meet the breeder

I'm Sabrina K., the breeder behind Zähhund German Shepherds located in Festus, MO. Having dogs in our lives is such a blessing. We find so much fulfillment in providing the same to other homes! It’s our top priority to make sure each of our puppy families welcomes a happy and healthy new family member into their homes! We take pride in our integrity and transparency. And our dogs!

Q. & A. with Sabrina

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Voodoo, my 1st service dog and first shepherd, changed my life. I trained him, gained independence & helped others. Ichigo, my 1st sport dog, brought new joy. I now have his brother, Vessel, whose our main stud dog. We continued our journey in IGP. Now, I dedicate myself to preserving the German Shepherd breed's loyalty & versatility, grateful for the love & lessons from these amazing dogs.

  • What makes your program special?

    With a focus on versatility, collaboration with experts, and fully passion driven determination, I believe our program can make a difference on not only the stigma German Shepherds may hold with our stable, confident and well tempered dogs, but bring many happy, goofy memories from each of our puppies’ to clients’ homes.

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

    Our puppies include long and stock coat varieties. 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 bi-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Zähhund 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.

  • Spine (OFA, FCI), 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).
