Beautiful Kingston- truly one of the prettiest boys ever. He just had his birthday & turned 2. Still very much a puppy full of wildness. But not high drive at all. Just a beautiful pet boy. Will be looking for the best home possible! Very food driven. Have lots invested in him. But he won’t be used in breeding program and while young and can be placed like to find that perfect home. We have 2 young males looking for great homes! Not fixed yet so will need to be! PM only

Accountability is something that is sorely lacking among many of today’s dog owners. Dogs are not born knowing human rules. Dogs do dog s**t. It is on us to teach the four legged predator we brought into our home how to live in a human world.

Green Boy Aka "Mickey" is growing!' At that funky stage now 😂 he will be going to live with a great family in NY that had another kasper daughter from us. He will be staying couple weeks for training until he leaves. Blue Boy is still up and open too !! Which I can't believe.

Dogs are dogs. They're not fur babies. They're not children. They're dogs.

That doesn't mean I don't love my dogs. It doesn't mean you can't call them your "kids" or "fur children." But for their sake, respect that they are dogs. Treat them well, but treat them as they should be.

People humanizing dogs is actually what's getting a lot of them put down, rehomed, dumped, and loaded with behavioral issues.

The best way to honor and love your dog is to respect the fact that they are different from us. That's part of what makes them so amazing!!

Bringing home a new dog and giving it whatever it wants, whenever it wants, is not setting them up for success. It may feel good to "spoil" them. I get it, but what you're actually doing is creating a brat.

I hear this often: "My dog bit our friend on the couch because he thinks the couch is his." OK, who let them think that? The dog didn't just waltz in and claim your couch. The dog wasn't given boundaries to begin with. I let my dogs on the couch, but if I tell them to get off and go to their bed, they will without hesitation. They've earned that privilege based on respect, trust, and understanding.

If you want to "spoil" your dog, do it by setting them up for success. Exercise them, give them boundaries, give them a job, and give them what they actually need instead of the latest squeaky toy. The time you spend playing with your dog means more than the toy itself.

Love your dog. Cherish your dog. Respect your dog, but for the love of the dog, TREAT THEM LIKE A DOG.

(And before anyone wants to say something silly...My dogs are my family. They literally signed my marriage certificate, but they also have boundaries. Just like any healthy family should!)

More Pics of The 2 gorgeous boys! Only looking for perfect homes!!

So many ask if price is lower. Let me add. When puppies stay couple extra weeks or however they should be more. Considering all the work goes into them(the cost in food alone is crazy) then more puppy shots more meds. Starting crate training and other things. They definitely shouldn't be any less when much more goes into them. Most will understand this. And no these aren't 600 back yard bred shephards. These are from titled health tested parents grandparents grandparents and so on. They have heath guarentee. They aren't bred huge like Americans at 130lbs(that's not standard for this breed) Do not ask me for a shephard(lol) that's not standard and huge or all you care about is a dark face or size. It's good way to get ignored or a mouthful. I'm no longer explaining prices. As the ammount money work and dedication that goes into it shows itself in the quality and reviews from past customers. So many come to me after buying a cheap shepherd puppy and regret it later(not always the case no) but alot with no health testing in lineage and all kinds of issues going on. That's kinda get what you pay for thing. Or adopt there are some kinds of GSD rescues. Do that. But don't expect well bred good quality to be free or price of a unknown quality. It's not what I do this for. and insulting to say the least. You pay for a life long happy healthy companion that you can be proud of.
Quality over Quantity anyday. Hope that answers some questions.
