Health Guarantee

A. Buyer should have the puppy examined by a licensed veterinarian within 3 BUSINESS DAYS  of pick up. Should the puppy be found to have a serious health defect at this initial vet visit, the breeder is to be contacted immediately. Buyer must provide Breeder with written diagnosis signed by a licensed vet, and at that time the buyer can request to 1. return the puppy for a replacement puppy of equal value from a current or future litter, OR 2. return the puppy and receive a full refund.  The breeder is not responsible for the vet bill. *Puppies that become sick or die due to an accident or buyers negligence (chewing electrical cords, hung by collar, exposing the puppy to strange dogs not living in the home before fully vaccinated, etc.) will not be replaced or refund given.

Breeder will not be liable for health of puppy after given a clean bill of health from vet (within the 3 days of purchasing) all sales will be final with no returns.

B. Spay/Neutering

Vets will often recommend doing this around 4-6 months old, however, for the health and well being of a German Shepherd Dog, it is recommended to leave the Dog INTACT until at least 2 years of age. 

C. Vaccinations & Deworming

We begin deworming at 6 weeks of age and vaccinations are given at 6 weeks of age. Deworming process may still be in effect when owner picks up puppy from the deworming being started at 6 weeks. Buyer will be provided a list of vaccinations the puppy has received. YOU MUST  LIMIT EXPOSURE OF THE PUPPY TO UNFAMILIAR DOGS UNTIL THE PUPPY IS FULLY VACCINATED. This means avoid large group puppy classes, and places such as dog parks, Petsmart, etc. 

D. Diet Recommendation

We feed all of our dogs and puppies Gentle Giants natural dog food.  The puppy is currently being fed three times per day, dry. We feed this food because research has proven it to have an acceptable protein/calcium/phosphorus ratio, which most current research shows is necessary for proper growth and development in large and giant breed dogs. Buyer acknowledges that they have read the information on appropriate feeding of large breed puppies.

E. Socialization and Training

Our puppies are raised underfoot, socialized with other large dogs, extensively handled by adults AND children, and exposed to variety of conditions ( inside, adult dogs and puppies, car rides, walks on a leash, etc.) To ensure your puppy’s temperament remains as sound as the day it leaves our home, once your puppy is fully vaccinated, take it places as often as possible. German Shepherds are very intelligent dogs with working drives.  Responsible owners channel this intelligence and drive in the proper direction with adequate love, attention, and training. Bored, lonely, and/or neglected GSD’s can become depressed, highly destructive, and/or aggressive. PUPPIES WILL CHEW AND BITE! This is normal, however, it is important to correct and/or redirect “naughty” behavior quickly and fairly. We strongly suggest the buyer to take their new puppy to obedience classes to learn proper handling techniques, once the puppy has been fully vaccinated. Please consider the quality of the instruction at these classes. Not all trainers are created equal! “Mixed breed” or “pet store” classes may not be appropriate for a working breed dog! Quality training is usually best accomplished with a local Schutzhund club, or other breed-appropriate organization. We cannot guarantee against environmental temperament problems, resulting from abuse, neglect, teasing, or failure to acquire appropriate training for the dog.
