Breeding and Mission Statement
Cedar Croft German Shepherds are bred and raised to be family and companion
dogs.
We breed dogs with lower drive, which is ideal for
a family and home environment.
Dogs bred with a strong working drive are not usually good family
pets, because they are “high speed ” and need a lot of exercise
and training.
Our dogs are bred to be intelligent, genetically strong, and
willing to please; so they are eager to learn obedience and
agility. His or her natural instinct responds to protect you and
your family, as every good shepherd should. This is a dog that
will love to play with you, take care of you, follow you around
the house or yard and above all just be your friend.
Their bloodlines have been carefully chosen for good temperament
and health, with a special focus on hips and elbows.
We wholeheartedly believe in going the extra mile when it comes to the care and raising of our dogs. We are committed to raising the very best dogs possible and placing them in the very best homes possible.
Socialization
We hand raise our puppies from day
one; we pick them up, hug them and play with them.They recieve all necessary veterinary care to ensure that they are in perfect health.
Total trust and confidence is instilled in every single one of our
dogs.
We keep our puppies for a minimum of eight weeks to ensure
that total socialization has been successfully achieved.
Color & Body Style
The passion and focus of our
breeding program is on solid black dogs. Having said that, we do
breed black & tans when a really spectacular dog comes along.
Our dogs’ body styles are balanced:
They have good bone, dark eyes, good top line and angulation. We
do not believe in extremes, so our dogs are not oversized, too
wispy or too tall.
The boys are masculine and the girls are feminine.
