Shekinah

we have been owned and worked by German Shepherd Dogs for over 20 years. All our dogs have attained a high standard of obedience both at show and club level.

As members of the British Association of German Shepherd Dogs we have had over 40 years experience in the breed.

Beth has been a BAGSD's instructor for many years and we pride ourselves on ensuring our dogs are bred firstly with temperament and health, with beauty and brains coming in close behind.

We are very excited by our newest addition to the family - Kumala - Dior in Fire and Ice for Shekinah - who in our opinion is showning excellent promise all round. Our dogs are our lives and breeding takes place with purpose - in order to strengthen the lines, in order to keep a puppy or to ensure we continue our carefully planned breeding programme. Bitches and studs are meticulously picked to ensure health and good breeding practice. All dogs are hipscored, haem tested and health checked. Puppies will carry endorsements to ensure good practice.

All puppies are home bred ensuring the best possible start in life. Exposure to everyday living within the home environment helps puppies to adjust and leave us happy bold and content. All necessary health checks are carried out by a veterinary surgeon prior to leaving for their forever home.

We carry out puppy aptitude tests at around 7 weeks which helps us to match the right puppy with the right owner - something we have been involved in for the past 15 years.

We also practice 'Baby Learning' - a gentle form of puppy obedience devised by us using puppies natural behaviours to teach life skills.
