I purchased a puppy from Shephard Kingdom in August 2026. My puppy's Breeder was Lester Hershberger. He answered all my questions about the puppy, food and transportation to Washington State. It was very easy to pay a deposit and pay the final balance. I was well informed about the cost of transportation to Washington State. The transport company kept me well informed when they left Ohio. They left on a Tuesday and I had him on Thursday. He is a beautiful, well socialized 9 week old Sable puppy. I cannot say enough how easy and relaxed I felt dealing with the Breeder. Thank you again. I would defiantly get another pup from him.

We love our baby!! After losing our nine year old a little over a year ago, we finally decided to get a new family member. Him is the sweetest boy. And we are in love 🥹 The experience with Rhoda was really good! And so easy. From messaging her to our boy arriving it was a week! And they delivered him to us!! Such a great experience!!! Furry Trails were AMAZING!! You could tell they had taken such good care of him on the trip down! I can’t tell you how many people have commented on how well behaved and just chill he is at 9 weeks old. HIGHLY recommend Shepherd Kingdom if you want a great GSD for your family! 🥹💕

Lester Hershberger is the breeder of our girl Phoenix (Wren). He and his family were a pleasure working with to get her to her new home. Puppies were clean, healthy and happy. You can tell that they received a lot of attention before going to their new home. Phoenix has came to her new home and has made it hers. She is adjusting great for the short period of time here. Would highly recommend Lester and his puppies. Many thanks from the Harris family. Keith & Sharon.

We got our good boy Zorro in the fall of last year and now he is just over a year old and right around 75lbs! We couldn't be happier with him! He's definitely become a family member! We knew we wanted a black male so when I first called and talked to Merlin, he guided me through the process, was very honest and transparent about everything, and already had a pup in mind for us! Merlin was great about sending pictures, updates, and scheduling a time for us to meet our pup! He was also flexible with our schedule which was very much appreciated! The whole process was easy and quick. We'd recommend Shepherd Kingdom to anyone looking for a great dog!

Rhoda is always keeping the page updated which is so nice to be able to confidently know what dog is available. Quick responses and easy transaction. Her daughter and her were so nice greeting us when we got the puppy. Also the puppy is amazing, full of life and ready to be a great family pet. Thanks again !

We brought home Gavin ( now known as Kai) a few weeks ago. He’s brought so much joy to our family. He’s been amazing with my kids, eager to learn, and has an amazing temperament so far. So grateful we have him.

I had a great experience with Shepard Kingdom. My gsd is such a good dog. He is smart, learns commands easy. He's very loyal and has a friendly, helpful demeanor. He is also beautiful with an intelligent look to him. Beyond blessed with my boy. Great line of gsd.

We purchased Lemon (og name elly) about 3 weeks ago. She is an angel from the heavens. Very well socialized and desensitized to loud environment. Merlin worked with our schedule and drove out to beach city. Property was absolutely stunning!!! Very clean and kept up. These dogs are very well taken care of! 10/10 would recommend if you want a healthy well bred pup!

Purebred German Shepherd Puppies

Buying a puppy is a big decision. We made that decision easy.

Don’t go barking up the wrong tree. Not knowing where your puppy has come from could lead to genetic health and socialization issues, and ultimately disappointment. There are even tons of puppy scams on the internet, some of which even try to imitate us!

Unlike other puppy adoption agencies in Ohio, we allow and actually encourage you to meet our German Shepherd puppies for sale before you agree to take one home. Remember, too, that when it comes to getting a puppy, ultimately, you get what you pay for. Here’s how we smoothly transition German Shepherd puppies from our home to yours:

1

Find Your Puppy

See your German Shepherd puppy in-person or online & directly get to know us!

Reserve Your Puppy

If you can’t meet the pup first, no sweat! Place a deposit on your new German Shepherd first before coming out to visit so we can begin arranging travel.

3

Take Your Puppy Home

This is the best part! You get a German Shepherd you love, vetted for good health, from a breeder you trust.
