Clubs, Associations and Breeders we recommend and people we trust and respect:
SureFire Shepherds highly recommends Parsons Creek Shepherds. The owner, Sydney Taylor, has established herself as a responsible White Shepherd breeder who puts health and temperament first. Her dogs are beautiful and well cared for. Over the years, several SureFire dogs have resided at Parsons Creek and been used in their breeding program. Surefire Stella Blue Starr, "Saffy" recently received a BIMBS award at the show in Madras, Oreon and it was Sydney's hard work and dedication that attributed to this well deserved award.
*******************************************************************************************************************
Patchwork specializes in Longcoated DARK shepherds with import lines. The temperament of their dogs is very good. Most are at the high end of the standard for size and the bone structure is solid. We co-own Boss with Patchwork. Boss is a beautiful RED sable longcoated male who we imported from Holland in 2004. Patchwork produces dogs that are beautiful and highly intelligent. We recommend them with confidence.
*******************************************************************************************************************
Noble Spirit Shepherds has AKC/UKC black/tan show line German Shepherds and Import Working lines as well. Their focus is on the Total Dog, with Stunning Show Looks but only after the Health and Temperament pass their strict requirements. They OFA all breeding dogs and only breed passing scores.

Where "Rock", a son of Obi and Sugar live and also "River", a daughter of Super and Trinity. Both are UKC Champions! Thanks to Erica for doing such a great job with her dogs in the conformation shows. Erica and I also co-own a beautiful black/tan shepherd, "Secret". I expect great things from Secret in the future.

Cathy and Scott Norlin have a nice breeding program established and are active in showing. They provide wonderful care for their dogs and are making us very proud with some of our puppies. They have a Leo x Justy daughter, a Destiny x Raphael daughter and two females from Starr Shepherds . We expect great things in the future from their breeding program. We recently placed two of our young males on co-ownership with Einzig shepherds - Samson, a black/cream longcoated male and Rohan a standard coat white male.
*****************************************************************************************************************
Where Sugar and Justy, who are both now retired, live. Sugar is out of a litter we raised in 2002 and Sugar was the only white one in the litter and is the mother to Justy. Justy is out of our male, Obi. SureFire co-owned Justy for a couple of years and we like her so well that we have included many of her offspring in our current bloodlines - Kyla (Jaeger litter), Flicka (Ruff litter), Izzy (Babar litter) and an upcoming female pup from the recent Sailor litter..

Good friends and wonderful dogs. See Meko's brother Max and one of Ace's granddaughters, Lexus, and their offspring. PoorBoy Farms also has Kahnica who has been bred to Obi twice. They also own one of Super's best sons, Nanook.

Ronda Beaupre of Regalwise is located in Kansas and SureFire Shepherds began a professional breeding relationship with Regalwise many years ago when we purchased Super, Rascal and Rachel. In 2006 we purchased Ruff, Liza and Leo and they have produced nicely for us, adding greatly to our breeding program. Ronda Beaupre is a wealth of information and is a very reputable breeder. I have learned much from our many conversations over the years. In 2008 Regalwise retired from breeding. The White Shepherd world will greatly miss Ronda Beaupre's contributions to the breed. Her Regalwise shepherds will live on in the offspring that they have produced. We are proud to have several Regalwise dogs here at SureFire - Rella, Raps and Renza were recently added in November of 2008. Thank you to Ronda for all that you have done for the breed!
