Exceptional, traditional pure breed German shepherd puppies

Four German Shepherd puppies available in Birr: two males (black and tan) and two females (black and tan). They are 1 month and 23 days old and have been raised in a rural environment around horses, livestock and people. They are described as intelligent with a steady, family-friendly temperament. The mother is a liver German Shepherd and therefore carries the gene relevant to coat colour. These puppies have been vet checked, vaccinated and wormed.

They come from a line with three generations present and have been socialised from an early age, making them responsive to training and likely to be loyal companions. If you'd like references, photos from previous litters, or to arrange a visit, please get in touch to discuss next steps.
