Givenhaus German Shepherds

Givenhaus German Shepherds raises German shepherd dogs in Franklinton, NC, in the Piedmont region near Raleigh. Jael Given has been breeding dogs for over a decade and maintains membership in regional canine associations, adhering to standards set by national breed registries with comprehensive hip, elbow and cardiac health screenings.

Puppies are socialized from an early age in a home setting alongside children and other pets and they enjoy daily exercise and interaction on open acreage. Adult dogs live in climate-controlled kennels connected to the main house, allowing smooth exposure to household sounds and routines.

Each litter undergoes early neurological stimulation, age-appropriate vaccinations and a balanced nutrition plan before joining their new families. Their bloodlines combine working and show pedigrees to balance temperament and structure, and support continues after adoption with advice on training and health, a point that past families frequently praise.
