Behind the Scenes: Breeding Excellence at Our Shepherd's Shepherds
At Our Shepherd's Shepherds, we don’t just breed dogs — we craft elite working partners, exceptional family companions, and service dogs of unmatched caliber. As the home of the Set Apart Dutch Shepherd, our mission goes beyond breeding; it’s about developing dogs that excel in every area, from law enforcement and military roles to providing loyal, loving companionship at home.
Top Genetics and Bloodlines
Our breeding program is built on a foundation of top-tier genetics, sourced from the best Dutch Shepherd bloodlines available globally. Each pairing is carefully selected to ensure the perfect balance of intelligence, drive, health, and temperament. We pride ourselves on working with reputable breeders and handlers who share our commitment to excellence. By combining decades of knowledge with the latest genetic research, we ensure that every litter is equipped with the natural ability to succeed in any environment.
Calm Downs and the "Off Switch"
One of the key traits we prioritize in our dogs is the ability to “calm down” after high-energy work. While Dutch Shepherds are known for their intelligence and working drive, we also know that a great companion or service dog needs the ability to relax. Our breeding program focuses on producing dogs that can switch from high-drive working mode to relaxed, calm pets. This ‘off switch’ makes our dogs ideal for families, individuals in need of service dogs, and professionals looking for reliable military or police dogs.
Service Dogs & Military Dogs
Our dogs aren’t just pets — they’re partners in some of the most demanding roles imaginable. From providing emotional support and stability to working with law enforcement and military units, our Dutch Shepherds are trained to handle it all. Their intelligence and versatility make them perfect candidates for service dog roles, assisting with mobility, medical alerts, and PTSD therapy. Simultaneously, their incredible focus and drive make them standout candidates for high-pressure military and police work, excelling in tracking, detection, and protection.
Family Companions
Above all, we believe that every dog we breed has the potential to be a beloved family companion. Our dogs are bred not just for their utility but also for their ability to integrate seamlessly into home life. They are loyal, loving, and protective, creating bonds that last a lifetime. The balance of training and socialization we emphasize ensures that each dog is not just a working partner but a cherished member of the family.
At Our Shepherd's Shepherds, we are committed to breeding excellence with every dog we raise. Whether serving as a service dog, a military working dog, or a family companion, each of our Dutch Shepherds is set apart by the care, skill, and dedication that goes into their breeding. We are proud to help you find your next loyal, intelligent, and capable companion.

Behind the Scenes: Breeding Excellence at Our Shepherd's Shepherds
At Our Shepherd's Shepherds, we’re not just passionate about breeding dogs — we’re dedicated to creating exceptional, well-rounded companions who thrive in every environment. As the home of the Set Apart Dutch Shepherd, we offer a comprehensive, hands-on approach to puppy development from day one, ensuring that each dog is not only high-quality but also perfectly suited to its future role in your home, service, or working environment.
The Full Puppy Experience: From Birth to Your Home
Our commitment to excellence starts before the puppies even open their eyes. From the moment they’re born, we provide a carefully structured, nurturing environment designed to support their physical, mental, and emotional development. Our team’s dedication to early socialization and developmental milestones is what sets us apart in producing dogs that are confident, balanced, and eager to please.
Newborn Stimulation & Desensitization
We start the puppy development process with newborn stimulation, using proven techniques to enhance their sensory awareness, motor skills, and emotional resilience. From the very first days of life, we expose the puppies to various textures, sounds, and mild challenges in a safe, controlled environment. This desensitization process helps them become accustomed to the world around them, making them more adaptable and less fearful of new experiences as they grow.
Puppy Socialization & Development
Socialization is a crucial aspect of a well-rounded dog, and we take it very seriously. Our puppies are raised in a family-oriented environment with regular exposure to different people, environments, and other dogs. This early socialization helps them develop healthy, well-adjusted temperaments. They learn important social cues and build confidence, which contributes to their ability to integrate into your home seamlessly.
Puppy development goes beyond just exposure; we focus on building solid foundational behaviors, ensuring that our puppies are prepared to thrive in various settings — whether they’ll become service dogs, military dogs, or beloved family companions.
Puppy Foundation Training
As part of our comprehensive approach, we introduce foundation training at an early age. This includes basic obedience, bite inhibition, and an understanding of appropriate behaviors. We focus on gentle, positive reinforcement techniques to instill habits that will serve the puppies throughout their lives. By the time they leave for their forever homes, they’ll already have a solid grasp on foundational commands like “sit,” “stay,” and “come.”
Crate Training
Crate training is a vital part of our program, especially for dogs that will be in homes where structure and routine are key. We help the puppies learn to view their crate as a safe, comfortable space, promoting security and reducing separation anxiety. By the time the puppies are ready to join your family, they will already have the foundation for crate training and be comfortable with it.
Fundamental Training & Aptitude Testing
At Our Shepherd’s Shepherds, we know that every dog is unique. To ensure the perfect match for your family, job, or service role, we conduct aptitude testing. This allows us to assess each puppy’s temperament, drive, and working ability. We evaluate their responses to different environments, stimuli, and tasks to determine if they’re best suited for high-energy work, therapy, or simply being a loyal companion.
We combine this aptitude testing with fundamental training, where we reinforce their understanding of key skills and behaviors. Whether the puppy will serve as a police dog, a service animal, or a family pet, we tailor our approach to make sure that each dog is matched to the right role. Our success rate in matching puppies with their families has been 100%, a testament to the precision and care we put into every pairing.
Ensuring a Perfect Match
The result of our detailed, hands-on puppy development process is a dog that is well-socialized, confident, and trained in the essential skills for a successful life. With our aptitude testing and early training, we can confidently ensure that the puppy you bring home will be the right fit for your needs, whether for work or companionship.
By the time you meet your new puppy, they’ve already experienced the best start in life, from early stimulation to foundational training. Our breeding and development program has a proven track record of success, ensuring a seamless transition into your home and a lifelong bond.
At Our Shepherd’s Shepherds, we believe in breeding more than just great dogs — we breed lifelong companions who are set apart by their drive, intelligence, and well-rounded temperaments. Every puppy that leaves our care is ready to become the perfect addition to your life, whether as a service dog, working partner, or family member.
