German Shepherd Puppies For Sale

German Shepherd Puppies

We love German Shepherds and breed only as a hobby so that others can enjoy the love and companionship of a wonderful German Shepherd Dog. We only breed from top-quality, world-class West German lines with impeccable temperaments and type. Our puppies grow into excellent dogs suitable for confirmation, obedience, therapy, assistance dog, search and rescue, K-9 training, Schutzhund and most importantly, for the ever present loyal companion.

All litters are raised in our home, well socialized and each held, cuddled and socialized throughout the day. The result is a pup that is comfortable around people, children, vehicles and other animals. It is also not uncommon for our puppies to be housebroken by the time they leave our house. We are located in Illinois just outside of Chicago.

We only have a few litters each year and our puppies are always highly desired. For more information on our German Shepherd Puppies for sale, please Call or E-mail via the Contact Us page. Reserve your puppy today!

German Shepherd Puppy
(5 Weeks Old)

Puppies Born on December 21, 2024

6 Males • 3 Females

Yara comes from a long line of champions. She is the granddaughter of VA1 Negus de Marka and great-granddaughter of 2x VA5 (BSZS) Henko vom Holtkämper Hof on her father's side and granddaughter of VA9 (BSZS) Team Marlboro Hilton on her mother's side.

Hulky is an outstanding red and black male that carries a deep rich color. The father to Hulky is a super dog named ASAP vom Aldamar. ASAP is stunning red and black who not only has phenomenal angles but carries incredible pigmentation. ASAP rated 1st place in the Young Dog Class at the World Championships (BSZS'17) and later took VA3 (BSZS'19) as an adult as well as having an IPO3 and KKL. The quality that this line has produced has pushed it to be one of the most sought after bloodlines in the world. Our previous litter with Hulky produced some wonderful puppies with Kona in 2022. You can see that litter below.

4 Weeks Old

At four weeks old, the puppies are now enjoying playtime in a much larger space, giving them more room to roam and explore. They’re loving all the new toys and the freedom to move around during play sessions. While their energy is growing, their playtimes are still short as they tire quickly at this age. They play until they all decide it’s time for a well-earned rest.


The puppies are 29 days old in the following pictures.

3 Weeks Old

Yara's puppies are now three weeks old and reaching exciting milestones! Their ears are fully open, allowing them to hear sounds and explore the world with all five senses. True to our German Shepherd litters, they are consistent in size and growing steadily. The puppies have started to play with one another but still enjoy plenty of naps throughout the day. A big milestone this week: they had their first taste of semi-solid food! Every puppy dove in without hesitation, a wonderful sign of their healthy appetites and growing independence.

2 Weeks Old

Yara's puppies are thriving and growing beautifully, now weighing between 2 and 2.25 pounds. Their eyes are fully open, and their ears are starting to open, giving them a whole new way to experience the world. When they’re not nursing or sleeping (which they still do most of the time), they’re starting to stand and walk. They’re currently in the adorable phase between crawling and walking as they build strength and coordination. It's such a joy to watch them grow!

8 Days Old

Yara's puppies are now a week old. They are healthy and growing fast. At this age they spend their time sleeping and nursing. The cannot yet see or hear, so they rely only on their developing sense of smell to crawl over to mom when they're hungry. They've gotten pretty good at crawling! With nine puppies, Yara has a lot of babies to keep track of, and she does a wonderful job.

2 Days Old

Yara and her puppies are going great. The puppies weighed 17-18 ounces at birth and spent their first two days sleeping and nursing. Yara is taking wonderful care of them.

Note: The color on the puppies is nail polish so we can tell them apart during the first few weeks. We keep track of their weight daily to make sure they are all eating and growing. When they're this young, it's hard to tell them apart.

About Long Coat German Shepherds


Vollmond's Tori

A long coat daughter from Kai & Lotta (at 1 year old)


While we do not breed specifically long coat German Shepherds, we do have long coats from time to time, so please continue to check our puppy page.

Long coat German Shepherds are quite beautiful, with their longer, silky coat. They are known to have excellent structure and very good health. They have exceptional temperaments and tend to be a little easier to train and usually have a little extra sweetness to their personality.

They are more rare, because they are only occasionally produced when both parents carry the recessive gene. They are now recognized in Germany and accepted in German confirmation shows.

Long coats do not produce as dense of an undercoat and contrary to common belief, do not shed any more that stock coat German Shepherds.

People who have had a long coat German Shepherd usually prefer them when looking for another puppy.

Import Puppies

In addition to our own litters, occasionally we will bring in German Shepherd puppies from litters born in Germany when they are from exceptional quality parents.

Each year, there is a German Shepherd Dog show held in Germany. The show is the Sieger show and it is the most important German Shepherd Dog show in the world. Dogs are brought in from all the European countries, the United States, South Africa, China, Japan and many other countries. The top dogs in this show are the best in the world.

The dogs begin by having to pass the courage test, which include two bites on a sleeve worn by a helper while receiving stick hits from the helper. The dogs must bite and hold onto the sleeve until the command is given to release their bite from the dog's handler. After the courage test, the dogs then stand before the judge where its body structure, teeth and movement in gaiting is evaluated.

The judge then narrows the field to the top 50 dogs in each class. Classes are for gender and age of the dogs. The top 50 dogs in each class are then brought into a ring for final judging and placement. During this time the dogs will gait around the outer edge of a soccer field. The dogs will need to gait both on-leash and also off-leash. They will need to gait at normal and also fast paces. All the while, the judge will be evaluating the dogs and moving them into different positions with the best dogs at the front. Usually this will go on for a couple of hours. The top groups of these dogs will receive a VA rating and they will be ranked within that rating. The top dog in the show will be ranked VA1, the second best will be VA2. The judge can vary how many VA rating he gives out depending on the number and quality of dogs in the show. In 2011, the judge gave out 12 VA ratings. After the VA rating, the judge starts giving out V ratings starting with V1, then V2, etc.
