1. Alpha German Shepherds

The team at Alpha is an enthusiastic and dedicated bunch of people who love what they do and are dedicated to producing the cutest, healthiest, top-quality GSD pups. Alpha is a small family breeder of German Shepherds but that will work for your benefit if you are looking to purchase a puppy, as the breeder gives personal attention to all puppies born into their care. The puppies and dogs live in the house with the family, which means from the day they are born, they are handled and socialized which is of vital importance for any young pup.

The breeders at Alpha are confident that their puppies have championship potential and that the puppies come with a written health and hip guarantee. And once you purchase, you get a health certificate from the vet and receive the pedigree going back 3 generations and a full AKC registration paper.

2. Roche’s German Shepherds

Their idea when they started was to produce a top-caliber German Shepherd that had a superior temperament and a pup that had character, and nerve and one that would be an ideal family pet. They have certainly achieved this goal. With three of the Roche’s bloodlines rated VA 1 by the World German Siegers Show (which is the highest honor for any GSD) it has made them one of the sought-after breeders of the breed. The puppies produced by the Roche Breeders are highly prized and are perfect for families, they are good workers excelling in search and rescue organisations, the police and so much more. The breeders do not fly their puppies to owners, but ground transport can be arranged for an additional fee.

Roche pride themselves on raising their puppies in a home environment, which produces puppies who display courage, intelligence, and loyalty that can only be obtained through ethical and respectful breeding. Plus, they stand behind their dogs and will respond to any problems you may have which gives a high level of trust and respect.

3. Casamoko Shepherds

Casamoko Shepherds Breeders — *Casamoko Shepherds*

Their dogs are well-socialized and attend training classes from an early age. The puppies are raised as part of the family and the breeders say that they breed as a hobby, and not a business. Many of their dogs compete in obedience, agility therapy work, service dogs and so much more.

4. Vom Geliebten Haus German Shepherd

Vom Geliebten Haus German Shepherd Breeders — *Vom Geliebten Haus German Shepherd*

What a perfect location for a dog breeder – 60 acres of farmland close to Menomonie Wisconsin! The dogs and puppies are part of the family way of life, they live in the family home complete with children and adults, so they learn how to interact with people very quickly. They are socialised from the moment they are born not only by family members but by many visitors and friends of the family. Vom Geliebten Haus prides itself on being a small family breeder and the family owns all the dogs, so they take active management of the breeding. They ethically refuse to overproduce puppies quoting their motto that they strive for quality, NOT quantity.

It is a busy learning time for the active little puppies who give their mum the run around with their mischief. At eight weeks of age, they get to meet the vet, and get examined, microchipped, and vaccinated. I bet the staff at the vet’s just love handling those adorable pups. Ground delivery for your puppy can be arranged for an additional cost, although they suggest air cargo service for longer trips.

5. Brimka Haus

Not just a breeder but one with strong ethical standards. They are against breeding any dog of any breed that is not certified free of hip and elbow dysplasia (as are most reputable breeders).

They also have strong views regarding diet preferring a raw food diet for their dogs, they reject spaying and neutering as they fear it can lead to increasing a dog’s aggression, and don’t re-vaccinate after shots unless it shows the puppy is not immune, which they make clear to potential buyers. All their concerns are geared toward producing a happy, confident dog for both the breeder and the new owner. All puppies are AKC Registered and come with pedigrees.

It was noted that many buyers left comments about the great information they get when they purchase a puppy which covers all those sudden concerns about what to feed a new pup and suggestions like playing classical music to calm them, and so much more. So, their care doesn’t stop after you drive away with your new puppy.

My Top Pick

My personal pick from the list of German Shepherds breeders is Alpha German Shepherds for the following reasons.

They are a very family-oriented breeder, and their dogs and puppies live with the breeders in their house, so the dogs are used to family life, being handled, and being used to people.

Alpha breeders also supply a lot of information about their dogs, and I love that they offer pedigree going back three years to the new owner. The puppies or dogs come with a health certificate from the vet and a hip guarantee. On top of that, they do offer a shipping program if you are out of state.

But what we think shouldn’t be the only thing you take into consideration.

Do your research and see what breeder resonates with you and be sure to ask the right questions and get the documentation and certifications that you require.

It may take a bit of time to do your research, but it will be well worth the effort.
