Located in northern McHenry County, Illinois...outside of Chicago, Illinois...we have been German Shepherds breeders and involved in Schutzhund since the 1980's.

During the last 20 years many things have changed, but our focus has remained constant. We are and will remain dedicated to breeding top level performance oriented German Shepherd dogs (both working bloodlines and conformation bloodlines) with temperament and structure true to the standard set by Capt. Max von Stephanitz, founder of the German Shepherd breed.

While our concentration is predominantly on the working bloodlines, we occasionally encounter a German Shepherd dog from show bloodlines that is of a caliber that we cannot resist. We approach these bloodlines with the same critical eye with which we look at the working bloodlines, breeding only the best in temperament and character, in the hope that we can help to narrow the gap between German Shepherd working lines and show lines.
