Frequently Asked Questions
What can we expect when acquiring a German Shepherd puppy from Yosemite Shepherds ?
Our exquisite puppies are born and nurtured within the comforts of our home, (never confined outside in a kennel), where they are enveloped in love and care, receiving only the finest nutrition and vitamins. Each puppy is up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, comes with a health guarantee, is regularly de-wormed, and undergoes a thorough examination by a licensed veterinarian prior to embarking on their journey to their forever home. During their time with us, our puppies are lovingly socialized with children, adults, and other animals, ensuring they are well-adjusted companions. They are ready to join their new families starting at eight weeks of age. Each puppy is sent off with a delightful bag of take-home treasures and a sample of the premium food they have been enjoying. Our puppies are AKC registered, with parents who have undergone extensive genetic testing (spanning 5 to 10 generations) to ensure only the finest bloodlines are represented. In addition to being raised in a family environment, our puppies benefit from Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) between days 3–16 receiving abundant affection and gentle handling each day. This bio-sensor therapy is a swift and effective desensitization method developed by the military to enhance the health and adaptability of animals.
What is the cost of your German Shepherd puppy?
A worthy investment for you and your family awaits. Our puppies are priced at $5,500 in total. A deposit of $1,000 is required, which will be deducted from the overall amount, with the remaining balance due upon collection when the puppy reaches 8 weeks of age.
Could you provide us with guidance or advice if we need it after we bring the puppy home?
Upon acquiring a puppy from us, you become an esteemed member of our cherished fur family, and we are delighted to offer you unwavering breeder support for a lifetime.
When it comes to choosing a puppy and making a deposit
The process is based on the order in which deposits are received, often even before the puppies are born they are reserved . However, there might be some wonderful puppies available for selection after they arrive. It really varies, so feel free to contact us for more information. Please keep in mind that while deposits are non-refundable, they can be transferred to a future litter one time if necessary.
Do you allow breeding rights?
We have determined that to ensure the best homes for our beloved puppies and to safeguard these treasured and valued bloodlines, we must refrain from granting breeding rights under any circumstances.
Are your dogs good for family life?
Absolutely! Our primary objective is to cultivate exceptional family companions, protectors, and service animals. While their capabilities extend far beyond this, our focus is on creating well-rounded dogs that excel in various roles.
Are home visits permitted?
To ensure the utmost health and well-being of our cherished puppies and their nurturing mothers, we must kindly refrain from home visits. This precaution is vital to protect our beloved dogs from potential viruses, such as parvovirus, which can linger on our property for years. Additionally, we prioritize the safety of our young children and will not compromise their well-being. Rest assured, we capture an abundance of videos showcasing our home and the delightful lives of our dogs, illustrating their sociable nature and the pampered existence they enjoy. We appreciate your understanding regarding our commitment to privacy and safety. Thank you.
