Honeyhill Kennels has been raising German Shepherds for over thirty years. Our goal is to raise healthy, happy, very sound, beautiful dogs. We promote the White German Shepherd Dog as a color variety of the German Shepherd Dog.  Our dogs are registered  with AKC as German Shepherd Dogs and with UKC as German Shepherd Dogs. Their DNA is registered and they have been xrayed,  and all of them are OFA certified.   

We try to have one litter of puppies a year. The puppies are sold with a written health guarantee and hips are guaranteed , they have a written pedigree, sales contract, health record, first shot, and AKC litter registration application. They usually go to their new homes about eight weeks of age. At that time they are leash broke, crate trained, almost house broke, have been temperament tested, and evaluated for show qualities potential.  I include a take back clause in my contract.  It says if you can't keep your dog or find it a home that you give it back to me.It must not go to a dog pound or rescue shelter.  I have enough dogs and really don't need your dog, but I do not want to contribute to the dog over population problem in the rescue shelters,  and will take the dog back and find it a home. 

The puppies live in the house, but visit the back yard, the kennel, and go for walks around the three acres, past the pond and the wild places. They go for rides in the car, visit the vet and friends. All fun experiences.

I recommend that all new puppy owners go with their puppy to an obedience and socializing class. This is a fun experience, and the owner learns acceptable ways to master the role of alpha . All types of training have merit, the only thing I absolutely object to is the "no sniff"  theory. I run to the nearest exit when I hear an instructor(?) say those dreaded words. *   I believe in using praise, treats and correction when training dogs. My dogs are  soft, so usually the word "no"   is enough correction, but occasionally a short leash correction is used, and of course it is followed by a lot of petting and encouragement.   

My dogs are fed dry dog food, but I have the crock pot always full of vegetable soup and add it to their food, and the pups get raw meaty bones  ( like chicken backs,or rib bones, or pork neck bones) every day of the week (and the   big dogs at least a couple of times a week.) . And they get yogurt and cottage cheese plus a little good supplement (right now i am using clovite) .  I believe that natural works best.

     *   The no sniff theory:   the instructor tells you to keep your dog close to you and not let the dog sniff of other dogs or people.   This is like you going into the class and must not say a word to anyone.  You have fun when you talk and socialize with others, and your dog uses his nose in much the same way, and must socialize to gain confidence and enjoy his class.  If he is restricted all the time, he may develop a  fear of others.
