Pricing
At Southwest German Shepherds, our litters are priced from $2,800.00 based on the breeding pair, the titles in the four-generation pedigree, and the type of registration you select (limited or full). Your puppy will receive a veterinarian well check, first shots and a microchip for identification. Shipping costs (if applicable) will be an additional charge. We will take care of all necessary paperwork and arrangements with the airline. Shipping cost for an 8-week-old German Shepherd puppy is approximately $650.00-$900.00 to any major airport in the US. This includes an airline approved shipping crate, which is yours to keep, transportation to the airport, and the cost of a veterinarian visit to obtain the required Travel Health Certificate. Ground transport via a nanny escort service is also available.

Visitation
Puppies are very susceptible to disease and if a virus is introduced, an entire litter may be lost. Visitors may have been visiting animal shelters, or other kennels prior to coming to Southwest German Shepherds, and could transmit viruses quite easily. Also, the mother is usually very protective at this point, and will get nervous knowing that there are strangers near her puppies. In addition, it is very difficult to evaluate puppies at this age, so the best time to come, look at the puppies, and select your puppy is after they are at least 6 weeks old. At this age they have received their initial vaccinations and their personalities and structure can be evaluated much easier.
Puppy Welcome Kit
New parents of our puppies will receive a Welcome Kit to get them started: collar, leash, stuffed toy, teething bone, tug toy, 2-day supply of the kibble your puppy has been fed, bowl, medical records, microchipping information, and GSD Training Tips.
