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.
Freyja ran in the GSDCA’s first mock HGH trial.... She ran under a German judge who judges HGHs and received very high praise and a score of 92/100.

Xurk at 12 YEARS & 1 MONTH young, flying through the ACT J.1 agility course. Always the most enthusiastic fun dog! Thank you for bringing so much joy to my life.
