Welcome to The Haven Kennels, the home of outstanding German Shepherd Dogs and amazing German Shepherd puppies! Yes, we are extremely proud of our German Shepherds. They represent years of our careful planning and work as breeders to produce a  German Shepherd that is physically sound, mentally stable, and has high trainability.  The focus of our breeding program is to produce German Shepherds to work as service dogs for the physically  disabled. Not all puppies, even puppies with the same parents, will be be born with the qualities necessary to become a service dog but all of our German Shepherd puppies  have the qualities to become loyal and devoted family companions.  We do not produce a large number of puppies each year so there are usually waiting lists for our pups. Visit our puppy page for information on how to acquire a Haven Kennels German Shepherd puppy.

At Haven Kennels we love the the German Shepherd breed.  There is no smarter, more trainable and more loyal a canine companion than a well bred German Shepherd but they are not the best dog for everyone.  Be sure to visit our Should you own a German Shepherd page and read it thoroughly before you make a decision to purchase or adopt a German Shepherd. As amazing a breed as German Shepherds are, they require time and training.  Make sure you thoroughly understand the breed before you make a decision to bring one into your home. as they are a full time lifelong commitment.

Please understand that we have very few puppies available each year and our clients apply well in advance of their birth. If you want a puppy right away, it is best you move on to another breeder. The first step in the puppy acquisition is filling out a puppy application. After we carefully vet your application, we will notify you that you are approved for a puppy. We will then refer you to some clients that already have our puppies so you can talk with them candidly about their experience. Then you and I will have a phone interview to discuss the details of what you can expect from us and what we expect from you. At that time we expect a deposit on a future puppy.
