Hughston German Shepherds

Hughston German Shepherds breeds German shepherd dogs in McBain, MI, in Michigan’s northern region near Traverse City. The operation is registered with the American Kennel Club and follows recommended health testing for hips, elbows and eyes on all breeding adults.

Puppies are raised in a family environment where they receive daily socialization and basic training in both indoor and outdoor settings. Each litter benefits from ample exercise on open pastures adjacent to the farmhouse and stays in clean, climate-controlled kennels overnight. Many dogs from the kennel have gone on to earn working titles in obedience and tracking, reflecting a focus on temperament and versatility. Clients often note the attentive follow-up and detailed care advice provided by the kennel, reflecting a commitment to each dog’s lifelong well-being. Under Jessica Hughston’s oversight, pedigrees are tracked for several generations to preserve strong working lines and stable temperaments.
