Karlsson von der Wilden Dreizehn, IGP 2. We love this dog!!  Karlsson is a stunning black and red long coat that was just imported from Germany after placing V14 (Excellent) in the 2021 World Sieger Show.  Karlsson has an impressive 17 VA’s and 12 V’s in his four generation pedigree. He is full of fun and drive and has an excellent temperament, solid nerves, and intelligence.  Karlsson is self assured, playful, and a show-stopper.  We are so excited to introduce him into our breeding

Wilhelmina vom Sudwesten (aka Willyrd to her first litter sometime in early 2023. - named after her world champion grandfather).  She is our first longhair and absolutely stunning with deep pigmentation.  Her dam was bred to the number two dog in the United States, 2xVA2 Fire vom Finkenschlag. Both of Willy’s parents have royal lineage. Charlie is the granddaughter of the World Sieger 2XVA1 Remo vom Fichtenschlag.   Fire is the son of the World Sieger 2XVA1 Willy vom Kuckucksland.  Willy’s royal bloodlines have 5 Sieger champions, 3 of which are 2x, in her four generations pedigree.  With these impressive bloodlines and her gorgeous looks and sweet temperament, we expect that her offspring will be amazing.

Xabah vom Frankengold (aka Xabi) Xabi is our new German Import from the world-renown Frankengold Kennel. She is a stunning female. Xabi is well structured with nice angles and beautiful dark pigmentation. She has great temperament, good movement and gait. Her sire Zac dei Precision was the #16 young male dog in the 2019 World BSZS Show in Germany. Xabi is the granddaughter of the current Vize World Sieger, VA2 Asap vom Aldamar. Her impressive bloodlines include 13 National and World Sieger Champions in both her sire and dam lines through four generations. With her gorgeous looks, sweet temperament, and impeccable pedigree, we are expecting her to produce amazing puppies.

 The SouthWest Difference

At Southwest we breed only West German Show Lines because they deliver a strikingly beautiful dog that exhibits intelligence, confidence, and an agreeable temperament making them exceptional family companions and protectors.  We select only the best males available from some of the most prestigious kennels in the US and Europe to produce our top-quality litters.  We will only breed our females to proven sires with Sieger and Schutzhund titles.  These champion bloodlines produce and enhance the desired qualities and traits of great temperament, intelligence and correct structure in our dogs, making them some of the finest German Shepherds in the United States.

At Southwest our puppies are raised in our home by us from the time they are whelped until they leave to become members of their new families.  They are handled and socialized daily to ensure a healthy, level-headed, confident and friendly temperament.  Our puppies are sent home with a veterinary evaluation, up-to-date vaccinations, microchipped, full AKC registration, and a health guarantee.  We also provide a puppy starter box and life-long support for our new owners.

We have spent years developing one of the best breeding programs in the country.  Our quality bred puppies have proven they can excel in all areas:  family companion, protector, working, showing, service.

“Jack”

We have had German Shepherds as part of our family for more than 30 years.  We did a lot of research before deciding to purchase our next dog at Southwest Shepherds.  We are glad we did.  Our puppy (Jack) is now 5 months old.  He shows the three characteristics of a GSD that are critical.  He must be calm, confident and intelligent.  Without any one of these three things your dog can be a real disappointment.  Jack embodies all these things.  Having been around the breed for more than three decades we know the difference.  Some of these characteristics can be nurtured by a loving owner who is a skilled trainer, but only to a very minor extent.  Breeding is critical.  Absent solid breeding a GSD will potentially not have these critical characteristics.  Southwest Shepherd's thoughtful approach to breeding ensures that your GSD will have them.  Yes, they have to be nurtured by you but if not present in the dog's breeding you will be disappointed.  All puppies are cute.  Jack is now 5 months old and I can clearly see the superior breeding.  He is supremely calm, confident and intelligent.  Not only that, he is stunningly beautiful.  We get compliments everywhere he goes.  I hope Kitty and Marc will post the pictures and videos I have provided of Jack.  They will demonstrate what quality their breeding program produces.  Additionally, it will give you an idea of what you might expect of your dog at 5 months.  GSDs require good owners.  Ensure you understand completely how to train and socialize your new family member.  Doing so in combination with the excellent breeding at Southwest Shepherds will provide you a dog you can be proud of and enjoy for many, many years.  

Mark & Marlene Napier - Oro Valley. AZ

We have two of the dogs from Southwest German Shepherds. They are the most amazing dogs. Marc and Kitty know what they are doing. These dogs are not only beautiful, but their temperaments are phenomenal. So calm and friendly, confident and smart. We’ve always loved German Shepherds but if you get one from the wrong breeder, as we did many years ago, you will know why this type of breeding is so important - and especially in a breed like a German Shepherd. If you are looking for a German Shepherd, I would highly recommend Marc and Kitty. They are the best as are their dogs.
