MK German Shepherds is a family-run breeding program in Rutland, Massachusetts. 

Owned by Mandy Kubilis, our family manages all aspects of caretaking for the dogs from our home to your home. With over 20 years of experience with German Shepherds, we are happy to help you find your perfect German Shepherd puppy. 

Our Philosophy

At MK German Shepherds, we believe that every dog deserves a loving and nurturing environment from the moment they enter this world. That is why we uphold a daily training curriculum that begins with Early Scent Introduction (ESI) and Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) at day 3 and continues into crate training and early socialization skills at 2 weeks old. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to provide the highest standard of care for our beloved German Shepherds and their offspring. Our stud and dam are also a part of the training process with our puppies, ensuring a balance between natural protective instincts and family household behaviors. 

Why Choose an MK German Shepherd?

• Loyalty and Protection: German Shepherds are renowned for their unwavering loyalty and natural protective instincts. Our socialization training makes them ideal companions for families with children.
• Intelligence and Trainability: With their keen intellect and eagerness to please, German Shepherds are highly trainable and excel in various roles, from service dogs to loyal family pets.
• Versatility and Adaptability: Whether you’re an active individual looking for a jogging buddy or a family in search of a faithful companion, German Shepherds possess the versatility and adaptability to fit seamlessly into a wide range of lifestyles and environments. Our temperament testing ensures we match your family to the ideal puppy. 

The MK Difference

Unlike large-scale breeding operations, MK German Shepherds keeps our program small, with up to three carefully planned litters per year. This deliberate approach allows us to dedicate ample time and attention to each puppy. From the moment they are born, our puppies are raised in a nurturing home environment, surrounded by love, socialization, and positive reinforcement. Our puppies are never left alone, and this approach has created a long history of successful past litters and happy families. Founded in 2020, MK German Shepherds comes with over 20 years of experience in German Shepherds. 

Stable Temperament

At MK German Shepherds, we understand the importance of an excellent temperament in a family companion. That’s why we prioritize temperament testing and early socialization to ensure that each puppy possesses the calm, confident demeanor that German Shepherds are known for. Whether they’re interacting with children, other animals, or strangers, our puppies are bred to be well-rounded, adaptable, and emotionally balanced. Our 10 step handling exercises truly yield positive results with our customers referring to our German Shepherd litters as “the perfect puppy.” 

Physical Health and Beauty

In addition to their exceptional temperament, our German Shepherd puppies boast the hallmark traits of the breed: strength, athleticism, and striking beauty. We meticulously select Champion West German show line dogs based on health screenings and genetic testing. 

Commitment to Excellence

At MK German Shepherds, our commitment to excellence extends far beyond the breeding process. We follow Jeanette Forrey’s Bad Ass Breeder methods, along with a variety of potty training and household item familiarization techniques. We believe in building lifelong relationships, ensuring that each puppy finds their perfect match and thrives in their new home. When you choose MK German Shepherds, you’re not just bringing home a dog – you’re bringing home a new family member with excellent temperament and personality. 

Thank you for considering MK German Shepherds for your next furry companion. We look forward to helping you find the perfect addition to your family!
