Reserve a Puppy

Each of our puppies is precious to us, and we dedicate many hours to early socialization, early puppy development and Early Scent Introduction. Because their welfare matters to us, we guide every potential buyer through a thorough application process, to be sure one of our puppies is genuinely a good fit. We will do our best to match you with the right puppy.

Before You Apply

Buying a working-line German Shepherd is a significant commitment. We strongly encourage you to research the breed thoroughly before bringing a puppy home.

These are not typical German Shepherds. They are bred for work — protection, tracking, detection. They are highly energetic and are not suited to a sedentary household.

Only buyers confident they have the time, the resources and the willingness to train and properly care for a working-line puppy should apply. Our sales contract is published in full, so you can read every term before you commit to anything.

How a Reservation Works

Apply

Fill in the application below. It tells us about your home, your experience and what you want in a dog, and helps us know if you’d be a good fit for one of our puppies.

We talk

It is very important that our puppies go to homes that would be best suited to give them the best possible life.

Deposit

A deposit holds your place. Reservations are taken in the order deposits arrive, and the waiting list is kept by gender.

Matching

Puppies are matched to families at around seven weeks, on temperament rather than who asked first.

Home

Puppies go home at 8 weeks old and can be picked up from our home in Garland Maine, delivery is available for an extra fee.
