About Us
   Abbott's German Shepherds is a family owned and run licensed kennel located in Maricopa, Arizona. All of our breeding dogs are also our family pets. Our dogs are like people with different personalities and talents. Some love to go to town and have people in the stores pet them. Some love to play ball or run with the kids when they ride with us rand the horses in the riverbed chasing rabbits and coyotes. Some love the show ring. Their personalities and talents are glowing when they strut their stuff. Still others enjoy just laying back and being pillows for the kids while watching TV. Our dogs have brought great joy to our lives and we hope to share that with you.
Our goal for our puppies is to be placed as companions,
loved and loyal members of a family. Some of these
families have taken some of our exceptional dogs and
become part of "Search and Rescue " groups, children's
4-H projects, seeing eyes dogs, herding dogs, bomb and
drug detection dogs working with police officers and
living with the family, pet store models and travel
companions. For stories about some of our dogs, please
read our "Love Stories" page.
For all the dogs that we have placed and the families
they are with, we have OFA certified our adult
breeding dogs so that we can do our best to stop the
terrible hip dysplasia that seems to plague our amazing
breed. We only use dogs that place "good" or "excellent"
in the test. A copy of each dogs OFA papers can be seen
by their picture along with their pedigree. As you look
through the pages of our site, you may have questions.
So,
please e-mail or call us. We are always happy to talk
about our dogs and help people get just the right German
Shepherd for them.
