I’m thrilled to announce that Force has been scanned and confirmed in whelp to Jax!
We carefully planned this working-line German Shepherd litter; bred for sound temperaments, high drive and clear-headed trainability - from parents who are as solid and affectionate in the home as they are steady and focused on the training field.
My good friend, Laura at Vylano, bred Force and I chose her for her exceptional genetic diversity, clear health background and fabulous nature. She has been raised on our smallholding just outside Edinburgh, where she’s very much a core part of our family and becoming an active assistant in my dog training business.
Force pairs serious drive and keenness to train with a deeply affectionate side and she’s just as happy curled up on the bed for a cuddle as she is working on the field. She is highly intelligent, possesses high play and food drive, and is completely trustworthy around our grandchildren, livestock, cattle, chickens, and other dogs. This is her very first litter!
Health Tests: Elbows 0/0, Hip Score 2/3
Temperament: Sociable, happy, high food & ball drive, intelligent
Jax is a strong, masculine male who brings proven working credentials, high drive, and a fully health-tested background to this litter. What truly sold me on Jax, though, is his stable, social, and steady temperament. He complements Force perfectly and is already a proven sire producing lovely, balanced offspring.
Health Tests: Hips normal, Elbows normal, LUV 0
Working Credentials: IGP3 Titled (the highest level of working trial achievement, demonstrating nerve stability, structural soundness, and drive under pressure)
Puppies will be short-coated (Force carries long coat, Jax’s status is unknown). Colors expected: Black & Tan, Bi-color, or Solid Black.
Suitability: Working-line GSDs thrive when given a job to do. These puppies are best suited to experienced owners (prior experience with working GSDs or similar high-drive breeds is required).
Lifestyle Requirements: We are looking for active, engaged homes where someone is around for most of the day. They are not suitable for homes where they will be left alone full-time.
Raised in our home with 20 years of professional puppy training expertise.
We go far beyond standard puppy rearing to give these pups the ultimate start in life:
Puppy Culture Protocols: Raised in our home using structured early enrichment, confidence building, mental stimulation, physical conditioning, and gentle early socialization.
Indoor & Outdoor Enrichment: Pups split their time between our home, a dedicated outdoor play area, and our private training fields on the smallholding.
Character Assessments: We use puppy character testing to ensure each individual pup is carefully matched to the right owner and lifestyle.
Nutrition: Weaned onto a natural raw and superfood kibble diet for optimal development.
Holistic Health: We advocate for minimal chemical usage—utilizing worm counts (only treating when necessary) and minimal vaccination protocols. We encourage new owners to continue this holistic, thoughtful approach.
