Berlin is already 4.5 months old. He's a really smart dog. He has passed all these training tests so far. I want to thank Deans, as well as the entire team responsible for the excellent work. Deans is always available for us to give good advice for our Puppy. I have a friend of mine an ex RCMP who has already given a deposit for female puppy. His dog will be a service dog. It was a pleasure for me to meet you, I RECOMMEND STRONGLY "SHIPHRA GERMAN SHEPHERD"

I just had to put down my dog karma. I purchased her in 2016 for 1500 . she was born Nov 4. I had paid extra 500$ to get first pick of the litter , I got there and there was only 3 dogs to choose from. It was good experience between me and dean . He wouldn’t show me his set up . Kept me in a room the whole time . Normally bad sign but I didn’t catch on at the time. Karma was half and half working/show line . temperament was on point, lots of drive, couldn’t ask
For better dog, never left my side no matter what. At 5 years old she was limping and had arthritis in her hips and back. She had no cancers . She had Hip dysplasia . She had really low pasterns also. So I barely got to bring her outside and exercise her properly. Lots of dog left in her when I put her down but the body was finished , she was a big house dog with big yard. We kept her in the house for few years and on dope. I know it’s not breeder fault these things happen.

We welcomed our beautiful German Shepherd, Halo, into our family in 2020 from Shiphra. He is now three years old (96lbs) of pure happiness, good health, and sweetness. Dean's recommendation of this furry baby from among his brothers and sister was spot on. We couldn't be happier! Thanks Shiphra family! We love Halo so much!

Was in a search for my next dog and wanted to see his litter so I can decide if I should get one from Dean.

I sent Dean a message in facebook asking whens the best time and day to visit then he just replied " I know many people like you. Going around breeders just to play with puppies with no interests of buying one"

Why would I waste my time and drive 3hrs to see the dogs?

Thanks for helping me eliminate you faster and move on to a better breeder!

I have never met someone so knowledgeable when it comes to german shepherds as much as Dean. Not only that but he actually loves all his dogs and continues to assist his clients the whole way through. I have a female 16months and a male 2months my husband and I are both beyond impressed at how healthy, intelligent and obedient they have been from the very start. All his dogs are from true german blood lines that have been directly imported from Germany. In my opinion dealing with this breeder has been a knowledgeable experience with continued assistance for life. Thank you to Dean as well Theressa for everything and for always going above and beyond.

Great experience, top breeder, our German Shepherd from Shiphra is now 1 1/2 years old and excellent to train, great temperament. She is a perfect addition to our household.

Would recommend Shiphra to anyone who is serious about having a German Shepherd. Dean provides you a ton of the information and guidance to help you through the process, he actively answers any of your questions even long after you take your pup home, our litter changed a few times but we were given lots of notice and they explained the situations and how certain things happen. 5 stars without question

So far it has been a wonderful experience. Our puppy is gorgeous and socialized. Dean always answered all of your questions even though he doesn’t have to and his dogs all look healthy and well.

Dean really knows his stuff! I was impressed with the amount of support and my puppy is just amazing. She is so smart, fit, and communicative. High prey drive, loyal to her person, and so fast to pick things up. The breeding lines Dean has and maintains are just amazing. I respect the direct information and guidance, Dean will tell you what you need to hear, not necessarily what you want to hear and it is all focused on providing good care for his pups. The love he has for these dogs is obvious and gives them a great start to life. I will be going back to Dean for any future German Shepherd puppies. She is true to her breed and responds to training wonderfully. Worth every dollar
