Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Drachenhaus Shepherds located in Greece, NY. We breed for not only great looks, but for superior temperaments as well. Our dogs are active in Rally, CGC, Trick Dog, Scentwork, FastCat, BarnHunt, DockDiving, Farm Dog and others - they hold many titles in these sports. We occasionally have pups available. All of our breeding dogs have been OFA'd hips and elbows, DM tested, and full Embark paneled. Our dogs are fed a premium dry food containing minimal grains and additives, supplemented with lean meats and healthy, natural fats and proteins. Our dogs are not kennel dogs, they are our family pets and live in our home with us. All our pups are raised underfoot in our home and are socialized with adults, children and other dogs from day one, so you can be sure that your puppy comes to you as a happy, healthy, well-rounded new addition to your family!

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Drachenhaus 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.

  • DNA Disease Panel, 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).
