At Our Shepherds Shepherds, every dog is raised and trained with purpose—producing confident, stable partners for veterans, first responders, and families.

PUPPY PURCHASE & MATCHING PROCESS
Puppy Cost:
$2,500
Deposit:
$500
(goes toward total puppy price)
Once a litter arrives, each puppy is aptitude tested for:
Drive
Nerve strength
Social temperament
Environmental confidence
Trainability
Handler compatibility
I personally match each client with the puppy that best fits their needs, lifestyle, and future goals (family protection, service work, active family home, etc.).
Once matched, you will be contacted with your puppy’s profile and temperament notes.
Puppies begin training at 8–9 weeks of age and immediately start foundational work.
