Description
We are delighted to announce that our beautiful girl, Artemis, gave birth to 8 stunning, healthy babies on 28/12/2025!
We are now registering serious interest only for this carefully raised litter. These pups were reared in a calm, structured family home with high standard early development protocols, and careful handling since birth.
This was an unplanned litter, and due to this, no genetic testing, hip/elbow scoring or official breed health testing were carried out on the parents. However, both parents receive regular veterinary check-ups, and the puppies have been raised with meticulous early developmental work, strict hygiene and daily handling. Despite this litter being unplanned, the pregnancy and labour was carefully monitored once confirmed, and the puppies have been raised with a level of care and socialisation to ensure outstanding mental stability and health for each puppy.
The Dam, Artemis, is 1 year, 7 months is a playful, intelligent, affectionate and deeply bonded my non public access trained assistance dog, who is trained to assist me with my medical needs. She is a black german shepherd x labrador. Her dad was a magnificent black and tan german shepherd, whilst her mum was a beautiful black labrador. Artemis herself is incredibly intelligent and knew how to open doors, climb unstable structures confidently, and assist me with my epileptic seizures naturally from the age of 12 weeks old. She also loves to cuddle and is a velcro dog who loves to observe what everyone is doing. This is her first litter. She gave birth naturally and independently whilst my family and I simply monitored and she took to being a wonderful mum instinctively. She is not available to meet in order to avoid infection risks.
The Sire, Apollo, is friendly, gentle, people-oriented and available to meet. He is stable, affectionate, and wonderful with visitors. He is a family pet, as well as Artemis, and both dogs have been raised with us since 8 weeks old. Apollo is 5 years old and is a beautiful white german shepherd. His parents were both black and tan.
Early Development and Rearing:
• Daily Early Neurological Stimulation from day 3 to day 16
• Daily Health checks, weight checks and observations
• Daily Early scent introduction from day 3 to day 16 of different household novel items
•Gentle, structured and intentional handling from birth
• Exposure to controlled household sounds, movement and routine
• Gradual, welfare-focused weaning

These puppies have been raised with intention, oversight and love to support balanced, confident futures.
Placement Age (NON-NEGOTIABLE):

• Confidence with novelty
• Stronger behavioral stability
• Smoother transition to homes
If you cannot wait until 12 weeks, please do not enquire.
Puppy Allocation (suitability matching system):
We do not operate on a "first come, first serve" basis. Puppies are matched to homes bssed on temperament, lifestyle compatibility, structure, and developmental assessments conducted at 3, 5, 7 and 10 weeks of age. Buyers may express preferences (male/female, softer/confident temperament) but final placement is decided by the breeder to ensure each puppy is correctly matched to permanent, lifelong homes and set up for success.
Health and what puppies will leave with:
• Veterinary Check
• First Vaccination
• Microchip
• worming schedule completed to age
• flea treatment if deemed appropriate
• puppy pack and care guide
• Legally binding contract
• Lifetime return to breeder clause

Our goal is lifelong responsibility for eevery puppy bred by our girl.
