Shepherd's Meadow, operating as AKC German Shepherds, is a dedicated organization known for standing up for the breed. The facility is consistently described as spotless and amazing, with dogs and puppies appearing very well cared for and socialized. The breeding program is considered excellent, focused on preserving the breed with incredible genetics and outstanding bloodlines. This results in dogs noted for being stunning, healthy, intelligent, and possessing the best temperaments. The organization and its volunteers go the extra mile. The process of acquiring a dog is often a breeze, with the breeder being very knowledgeable and helpful, providing pointers and food. Contracts include a one-year health guarantee. Buyers typically receive AKC papers in hand with breeding rights. However, one reviewer notes a significant delay in receiving AKC paperwork post-purchase, despite it being included in the contract. The breeder has a strict policy, selling only to homes where the dog will be a family member, which is highly respected. Dogs from this breeder are repeatedly called the best, forming a huge part of their families, and the service is highly recommended.

Nice facility, Mike is super nice, and we love our Mia (aka Biscuits) that we got from Mike!
Mike is extremely knowledgeable and was so great to work with. We drove nearly 7 hours one way to buy from him, but it was worth the drive! We're already planning on making the drive again when we buy our next shepherd.
