Why We Specialize in Breeding German Shepherds
The German Shepherd is one of the most beloved dog breeds and for good reason. These intelligent, loyal companions make excellent pets and working dogs. If you live in North Carolina and are considering a German Shepherd puppy, you can find quality breeders right in the state through us.
We offer purebred German Shepherd puppies bred for health, temperament and conformation to breed standards. There are many reasons why their German Shepherd puppies make great pets for North Carolina homes, here’s a handful of the most important ones:
Ideal Temperament
German Shepherds are known for their even-tempered and loyal disposition when properly socialized and trained. We breed dogs with calm demeanors and an eagerness to bond with their human families. Their puppies are handled frequently from birth to become acclimated to people and prevent skittishness. This produces puppies well-suited for family living environments.
Intelligence and Trainability
The German Shepherd is a highly intelligent breed. Their ability to learn commands, follow direction and be molded into working dogs or companions is unmatched. We selectively breeds dogs to maintain these traits of high intelligence and trainability. Raising their puppies around a variety of stimuli prepares them for the training essential to develop a well-behaved and socialized adult.
Health and Genetic Testing
As a reputable breeders, we conduct genetic and health testing on their breeding stock. Their sires and dams are screened for issues like hip dysplasia, elbow dysplasia, and degenerative myelopathy. Only dogs passing these health checks are bred. This helps minimize the chances of inherited diseases in offspring. Their puppies come with health guarantees against many genetic problems.
Vigilance and Protectiveness
The German Shepherd was originally developed as a herding dog and that protective instinct remains strong today. They mature into loyal guardians of their family and property while remaining non-aggressive when properly socialized. We pride ourselves on breeding puppies with this balanced protective drive that makes them attentive watchdogs but still kid-friendly pets.
Athleticism
Few breeds can keep up with the German Shepherd’s energy and athleticism. Whether running alongside a bike, playing fetch or agility training, these dogs love physical activity. Staying active comes naturally to the breed. We focus on producing puppies with the sound structure, muscle tone and vigor required for a lifetime of athletic exploits with their families.
Versatility
Thanks to their trainability, courage and strength, German Shepherds excel in many roles. They serve as police K-9s, military and guard dogs, search and rescue, service dogs, herders and of course as devoted family companions and protectors. We specialize in breeding adaptable and sound puppies capable of succeeding in any lifestyle.
