Samherz Shepherds LLC

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Samherz Shepherd and Jessi’s incredible program. I have had the privilege of owning two amazing dogs from her facility, and I can confidently say I will never go anywhere else. From the moment you step onto the property, you can feel the love, dedication, and care that goes into every aspect of the Samherz breeding program. The temperament of the dogs is absolutely unmatched—calm, confident, and well-socialized. You can tell this comes from careful breeding practices and the effort Jessi puts into ensuring every puppy has the best possible start in life. One service I highly recommend is the imprint training program provided by Samherz. This program is invaluable for socializing your puppy and easing their adjustment into home life. It sets a solid foundation for obedience, confidence, and trust. This helped us ease into our home routine as kennel training and routine meal times were already established. The support provided to us as puppy owners was phenomenal. Jessi is always there to answer questions, provide guidance, and share training resources. It’s clear she truly cares about every dog she places and their lifelong success. The attention to detail in nutrition, health care, and early development is second to none. The puppies and breeding pairs are not only stunningly beautiful but also impeccably cared for. When you meet the breeding dogs, you’ll immediately see their excellent temperament and health—they are the picture of what a German Shepherd should be. Jessi’s passion and love for these dogs is palpable, and it shows in every puppy she raises. I am so grateful to Jessi for the incredible work she does. If you’re looking for a German Shepherd breeder, you won’t find better than right here.

I highly recommend Samherz Shepherds for healthy, intelligent, beautiful German Shepherds. She does so much research and truly cares about the breed. Her passion and knowledge shows because she breeds the best dogs, plans exceptional litters, pairs the right pups with the right families, & responds so quickly to any questions or concerns. We are so happy with our pup and the continued support we get!

We got our German Shepherd pup from Samherz in Dec. of 2020. Jessi was so caring, loving and always made sure she communicated with us about him. He is such a wonderful dog and we know that a large part of that comes from the immense love he was shown from birth. The facility is so clean, you know every dog is well taken care of and is truly part of their family. Even after purchase, Jessi follows up and truly cares about the well being of her dogs. If you are looking for an incredibly good looking dog with a sweet demeanor, then Samherz is the place!

We’ve had our Samherz Shepherd for just over a year now and couldn’t be happier! Our Millie is confident, athletic, playful, happy, and intelligent. She’s always up for an adventure and has a great social temperament. She adores our 3 kids and has a sweet demeanor while still being protective of her family. Millie adapted well to our city life and has been a great fit for our family! This is our first experience with the breed and we did lots of research to find the right puppy for our family. There were a handful of factors that made us chose Samherz Shepherds, who met all 5 of our criteria. First, we were looking at European bloodlines versus working lines. We wanted an authentic German Shepherd with a social temperament. Health testing was also on our priority list. Second, it was important to us that our puppy have the best start in life, during the 8 weeks before he/she even came to our home. The socialization starts right from day one at Samherz with exposure to sight, sounds, kids, etc. The puppies start their life being with their mom around the clock and eventually start on the highest quality puppy food when they are developmentally ready. The puppies don’t go to their new homes until 8 weeks so they can spend that important time with their littermates. Third, we liked the idea of being involved from the beginning of our puppy’s life. The bonding starts before you even pick up your puppy. The professional looking photos that are taken each week of your puppy are priceless! We still look back as a family to ooh and ahh at how tiny and fluffy our Millie was! You also see various videos of the puppies bonding with mom, or playing among their litter mates. Fourth, you have the option to pick up your puppy at 10 weeks versus 8 weeks for extra socialization and crate training, which we took advantage of. Our puppy has been a dream in her crate from the first night she came home! Last, we wanted a lifetime relationship with our dog’s breeder. Jessi truly wants what’s best for her puppies from birth until adulthood. She’s is always there to answer questions or address concerns. This is our first experience with the breed so we had lots (LOTS!) of questions that Jessi was more than happy to take the time to answer. There’s also the extended Samherz community that has been invaluable with their feedback and experience raising their Samherz pups. You get what you pay for when it comes to a dog breeder, and Jessi is the best of the best! There’s a night and day difference between the type of German Shepherd you are going to end up in regards to temperament and health with a quality breeder like Jessi, who is working to better the breed, and a backyard breeder who wants to make a few bucks. We have fallen in love with this breed and look forward to being repeat offenders by adding another Samherz pup to our family down the road!

I can not praise Jesse enough for how kind she has been throughout the process of puppies being born and after. She kept us updated with photos and videos, which is so fun and special to be involved in. She also ensured all questions and concerns were answered. I also cannot praise enough how much love she puts into the pups. Our Juneau is such a lover. It just shows how much socialization she got from the get go. Nothing but love for Samherz. Amazing amazing place and experience.
