Thank you for your interest in a Herzog German Shepherd Puppy! We specialize in puppies with calm temperaments that are suitable for service, therapy, facility work and can do well in a family setting. To do this we choose our parent dogs with even temperaments, good health and correct conformation.
We stay away from high drive dogs as they are often unsuitable for the environments our pups are placed in and require a higher level of training. When we do have a pup that has higher drive requirements we work to match them with an owner who’s up for the challenge as our primary goal is the success of our pups in their new homes.
At this time we offer black and red, solid black and sable pups in long and short coats in our upcoming litters.
For help being matched with the perfect pup for you, please contact me, Kate Dalman, and we can discuss your needs and wants.

We're still in search of the right home for Remy. This poor guy is the sweetest boy and a big snuggler. His heart broke when he was separated from his family. For days he didn’t want to interact with anyone. He’s been with us since the beginning of March and we’ve worked through his depression but it was awful to see. I mention this because his new family will need to understand that Remy is a sensitive dog. When he transitions into his new home he’ll need time to decompress.
Remy is pure love. He’ll be 3 in July and is just under 80 pounds. He was raised in an environment where his owner had anxiety and was nervous to handle a big dog. In a situation like this, a dog will have their own nervous tendencies. As a result, he nips at people he doesn’t know on occasions where he didn’t feel comfortable. Thankfully, they were not vicious attacks and he has never done that to anyone he has been properly introduced to or has bonded with. It needs to be understood that if he’s uncomfortable, he can be unpredictable, which is why he cannot go to a house with young children. He does very well with teenagers, bonds with them closely and likes to sleep on their bed. His original home had a teenager as does mine and he loves them to pieces.
He does well with our dogs, but his previous owner said he had an incident with their pug. It's unknown what triggered this. He spends his days with our dogs and puppies now and we've seen no signs of aggression, however, Remy missed out on critical socialization in his previous home so when we go to public spaces he uses a muzzle to avoid issues because he is clearly uncomfortable.
Remy has been introduced to cats and expressed almost no interest, however, I haven't seen him with cats long term. I believe he would do well with a proper introduction.
Remy’s ideal home will be with a family who does not have members who tend to have chronic anxiety or are nervous to be around a big dog. He will do excellent with owners who can provide stability and can recognize a dog’s body language when they are uncomfortable including shaking, lip smacking, ear pinning, whining, turning his face away or excessive yawning when around strangers. He's fine being a home body so he'll do well in a home that doesn't take him places. A family devoted to continued training to work through a healthy transition is a must. We hope to see his next home be his forever home.
We are not asking a fee for Remy’s rehoming, we instead appreciate a tax deductible donation in the amount of your choice to our nonprofit organization, Herzog’s Heroes.
