Providing German Shepherds of healthy, well proven lines for work & family needs for over 25 years, located in western Montana.
It is rare nowadays to find black & tan working German Shepherd dogs with balanced character, high drives, strong/stable natural aggression/protection and tracking ability. To our knowledge, Sapphire Shepherds is the only kennel in North America to offer the genetics of two such outstanding dogs;
Czar (Balli Panta-Rei ZVV3) & PSD Donner (PSD Iwo vom Rittersring full DDR pre 1986 stock pedigree!) in our breeding program. These proven, highly prized working bloodlines have reliably and consistently produced quality working dogs. We are further privileged to be a kennel that Government Police Dog breeding programs have come to for working genetic purchase; New Zealand Police Dog Breeding Centre & the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Dog Breeding Program. Very few breeders have these honors, especially in North America.
He's officially a teenager, Happy 13th Birthday Xurk! For 13 years you've given nothing but joy & love, everyday!
Xurk found our old missing barn cat Fluffy today during a walk with pups. Good boy Xurk!
At 13 yrs of age, Xurk remains a fixture in our daily life & helping with the raising of our litters with his bomb proof character & lending his confidence to little pups during new exposure.
Another fine offspring of Xurk and owner who have just added a Temperament Test title ATT & FDC Farm Dog certification to their long list of accomplishments!
