Longtail Shepherds

Longtail Shepherds are German shepherd dog breeders in Murrieta, CA, in the Inland Empire near San Diego. Zackary Collins has over a decade of experience as a member of the German Shepherd Dog Club of America and maintains AKC registration with routine hip and elbow screenings. Puppies are reared in a family home with daily interaction, early crate training, and supervised play sessions alongside other dogs and children.

Bloodlines are selected for sound temperament and working aptitude, and recent litters include offspring competing in local tracking and obedience trials. Nutrition is tailored with high-quality feeds, and health is supported by regular veterinary checkups and parasite prevention protocols. Updates on growth milestones and behavior are provided through email and social media, reflecting a transparent, hands-on approach. A fenced exercise yard and on-site training field help prepare pups for their future roles, whether as family companions or working partners.
