"Duke is a year already! We couldn't be happier with our Nadelhaus Shepherd. Traci picked the perfect dog for my family. Great disposition, physically healthy, and structurally put together like a true German Shepherd quality dog should be. Can't say enough about the ongoing support from Nadelhaus. Many texts and calls for guidance this year. Love you Traci!"

The Castro/Medina Family, San Francisco, CA,

"Get your dog from a place that cares about responsible dog breeding. Our dog has excellent temperament. Get your dog from a place that breeds for good temperament. Get your dog from a place that is a one stop shop for training and boarding. Nadelhaus has excellent customer service through out the years. Even though we live in the Bay Area and drive 3 hours to Nadelhaus, it is worth it."

Jon Lee, Alameda, CA,

"We got our handsome guy, Rambo, from Nadelhaus German Shepherds. He is absolutely one of the most beautiful things I have seen in my life. In addition to being absolutely gorgeous, he has amazing temperament and is a hit with kids and adults. He is our own nanny dog! We are so glad we went with Nadelhaus, and will definitely go back to Traci for our next pup. We are in love with the breed and the amazing Nadelhaus pups! Traci has always answered our questions when we were unsure of things, and has always been responsive!"

Rashmi S., San Jose, CA,

"We got Bailey a year ago and couldn’t be happier with her. Her temperament and size is perfect! We have had other German Shepherds in past but I honestly have to say she is a miracle!! Sweetest German Shepherd ever!!"

Jayne P, San Ramon, CA,

"We have welcomed a total of 3 amazing German Shepherds into our family from Traci. We continue to use Traci for boarding and training. She is an invaluable source. People think we are crazy for driving 2+ hours to board our dogs, but I wouldn't trust anyone else with them."
