FEMALES

We have four AKC female German Shepherds that are part of our breeding program today: Jett, Sophie, Java and, soon, Bella.  Jett and Java have the “classic” German Shepherd look with the dark mask and saddle. Sophie, while classic in her conformation, is a maskless German Shepherd with much lighter markings giving her a very distinct look. And Bella is a long-haired AKC German Shepherd, very popular in Europe, but somewhat hard to find in America today. For our females that have been bred before (Jett, Java and Sophie), you can see what the puppies from their previous litters look like on our Past Litters page. We have also bred dogs named Abbey and Lakota in the past, but have retired them from breeding now; you can learn about Abbey and Lakota on our Retired Dogs page and see their previous puppies on our Past Litters page as well. Each of our dogs has a wonderful temperament that you can absolutely rely on to be trustworthy with a family, yet intimidating to potential intruders. As you can see, we have carefully selected all of our beautiful females for their specific and unique physical and behavioral traits.  Read more about each of our females below.

Jett

Jett's actual name is "Jett Propulsion" - you know, like a rocket.  And there's a reason for that.  Jett is f-a-s-t ... she's our speediest dog.

And she is ALL about her ball. She takes her ball with her to go potty.  She brings her ball back to the porch at night. She puts her inside ball on the couch and pushes it toward you with her nose to try to entice you to play a late-night game of ball. She literally lives to play ball.

Why does this matter to you? German Shepherds that love to chase balls have what "dog people" call a "strong prey drive." And that means business. If you want a dog for home protection or police work, a strong prey drive is an admirable quality.

Jett will NEVER - and I mean NEVER - stop till she achieves her goal - whether that goal is retrieving the ball you threw 100 times already or hunting down a bad guy - she always finishes the game.

Jett is a black-and-tan short stock coat AKC German Shepherd. She has a high prey, retrieving and hunting drive and an affinity for airborne scents and tracking.

Java

Java is the daughter of two of our dogs - Abbey and Rex. You can see photos of Java as a baby and growing up here. Java is our daughter’s constant companion. They go everywhere together, and are the best of friends. And we like that, because we know, wherever our daughter is, she is well protected.

Java has inherited the best of both of her parents’ traits, and is a fiercely loyal protector, a playful companion, a loyal sidekick, and, as it turns out, is pretty good at herding too. Our daughter cares for the goats on our farm, and with nearly boundless energy, Java helps her round them up when it’s time for them to come in from the pasture at night. If there’s a straggler, she finds it and runs it into the stall.

Java is also our most vocally expressive dog. She has a noise for every situation and she likes to use them to “talk” to us about her dinner (which she apparently has a lot to say about), her desire to go outside, and of course, to warn us of perceived danger. One of the things that’s so surprising about Java is her very deep bark. We never have to wonder if someone is pulling into the driveway - Java will absolutely let us know.

And Java is s-m-a-r-t, too. In just a couple of days, our daughter taught Java to ring a bell to let us know she wants to go out to potty. (Admittedly, she sometimes rings it when she want to go out to play too!)

Java is a classic red-and-black short stock coat AKC German Shepherd. She is energetic, talkative, and has an incredible ability to quickly learn new commands.

Sophie

Sophie is the daughter of our own Jett (see left) and Rex. You can see photos of Sophie as a baby and growing up here. With a white German Shepherd in her lineage, Sophie is a gorgeous and quite rare “maskless” German Shepherd. She has the traditional Shepherd saddle, but it is lighter in color. Everyone that sees her comments on how strikingly beautiful she is, and she has an incredible personality to match.

Sophie has a distinctly feminine look about her, but she’s in no way dainty. Incredibly intelligent and easy to train, Sophie is a great combination of both her parents. Like her mother, Sophie is a wonderful protector, a loyal guardian, a great herding dog, and a fun-tastic playmate. She loves a game of “fetch,” and just like Jett, she won’t stop until her humans tell her game time is over. Like her dad, she loves water and is always … ready for action, but she is equally comfortable curling up and spending a quiet day at home. As long as she’s with those she loves, she’s happy and content, just the way a Trusted Guardian should be.

Sophie is a black-and-cream maskless short stock coat AKC German Shepherd. She has a high prey, retrieving and hunting drive and an affinity for airborne scents and tracking.

Bella

Bella is a black-and-tan long-haired AKC German Shepherd. She loves the water - loves, loves, loves it! She plays in her pool, digs in her water bowl, and like our Lakota, Bella would probably stay wet 24x7 if she were allowed to do so.

While she loves to play with Sophie (her best friend), she has a very laid back personality and a calm demeanor, and has been very easily trained. She enjoys kids and all the animals on the farm, though she is quite perplexed about horses – she keeps offering them her ball in hopes they would like to play with her.

Bella is now ready to breed and will become the mother of an upcoming litter very soon.

Bella is a long-haired, black-and-tan AKC German Shepherd. She has a deep love of water, a calm disposition and is very easily trained.
