Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Kaiser + Leyna located in Indianapolis, IN. We raise our dogs with love in our home. We have high expectations for our pups and strive to pair each one with a loving family. The first few weeks of a dog’s life are critical for their development, so we raise our puppies with lots of group and individual attention, plus the best socialization and care that we can provide! We want each of our puppies to be prepared for their new lives in their forever homes.

Getting a puppy from Sheena

Sheena has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies. You'll also have the chance to share a bit about yourself and what you're looking for in a new companion. Together, you'll choose the puppy that's right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.

Price

Puppy prices range from $1,200 - $1,600 and include a non-refundable deposit of $200.

“Deposit is required to hold a puppy. The picking/placement of the puppies is made after Volhard temperament testing has been done at 7 weeks of age. Picks are then made in the order in which deposits have been received. We will assist new owners when picking their puppy based on the puppy's temperament testing and what the family is looking for in their new companion. All of our puppies are the same price regardless of color, sex, or size. Puppies are sold with Limited Registration. Full registration is considered on a case by case situation and is an additional $400.”

Contract and health guarantee

Sheena may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Sheena offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out to Sheena directly.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Kaiser + Leyna 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.

  • Full Embark Panel, 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).
