Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Shana's Shepherds located in Mt. Sterling, KY. I run a small German Shepherd breeding program. I produce 1-3 litters of black and black& tan AKC German Shepherds per year. My dogs are health tested per GSDCA & AKC guidelines. I raise happy, healthy pups in my home that make great companions. Let me help you find your next best friend!

Shana’s experience

  • About Shana

    It is my passion to responsibly breed, raise, and socialize healthy, happy puppies so that others can enjoy the gift of having a German Shepherd. It is important to me that I am breeding versatile, well-rounded, socialized, and healthy puppies for families to welcome into their homes and hearts. I sincerely hope that someday I can help you find your next best friend.

  • What makes Shana’s program special

    I am selective about my dogs, and ensure they are healthy prior to breeding. The health and temperament of my puppies are my number one priority. I am very conscious about who gets my puppies and always ensure that each one goes to the best home possible, and I offer support for life. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.

More about Shana

  • Why Shana started breeding

    My parents had a shepherd when I was born, and we quickly became best friends. I've had a shepherd most of my life and to me they truly are the best breed. I want to do my part and responsibly breed healthy, well-rounded pups to make great companions. I am fairly new to breeding, but I love learning and sharing my passion for German Shepherds with those who love the breed just as much as I do!

  • 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.

  • Brucellosis

    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

    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).
