Select K9S

Select K9s raises German shepherd dogs in Wheeler, Wisconsin, a rural area in the northwestern part of the state roughly an hour east of Minneapolis-St. Paul. The kennel is operated by Michael Wannemacher and is situated near Menomonie, just 15 minutes from I-94.

The program draws on West German and Czech bloodlines with championship and Schutzhund ancestry, focusing on dogs that are "V" or "VA" rated and KKL1 — the same performance and conformation standards used in German breed surveys. Many of the breeding dogs, including studs, are imported from Europe. All breeding dogs carry either OFA-certified hips or the German "A" stamp for normal hip and elbow certification.

The kennel runs up to 14 indoor-outdoor kennels, with climate-controlled interiors featuring heating, air conditioning, and ceiling fans, plus outdoor concrete runs stretching 50 feet. The facility also includes an on-site agility course that the dogs use regularly. Puppies are raised with close daily interaction from the family, which the kennel views as foundational to producing well-socialized German shepherd dog puppies in Wisconsin ready for both family life and working roles. Those searching for a German shepherd breeder in Wisconsin with European working bloodlines and hip-certified parents will find that Select K9s places dogs across the Midwest and beyond.
