I'm the breeder behind Vom Haus Highlands located in Augusta, WV. Vom Haus Highlands is a small breeder of high quality working line German Shepherds. All dogs selected for our breeding program have undergone rigorous health and temperament screening. We have hand selected and imported our dogs based on their outstanding temperaments and workability from Europe. Our goal is to provide well rounded healthy dogs with outstanding temperament’s. Our puppies start their Biosensor training on day three and we raise them using the latest puppy culture techniques. Our pups are suitable for a wide range of disciplines to include but not be limited to service/emotional support dogs, family/personal protection, search and rescue (SAR), high level competition, police/military and breeding programs.
