About Logan
DM- clear
MDR1- clear
Logan is our newest German Shepherd addition.
He is Western lines versus DDR like Varick and Xandra are.
Logan was born May of 2019. He has a strong personality and likes to make sure that the other dogs “stay in line”. That being said, he loves to play which typically consists of him running around with a ball in his mouth. Picture the videos of baby goats hopping up on their hind legs but in a German Shepherd lol.
His strong exterior gives way to a gushy interior that is all about his momma and being with her wherever he can go. 110 lbs of lovebug.
He is AKC registered as well and comes from import parents. His coat is red with a black saddle.

Varick is a dual registered sire. He is CKC and AKC registered.
The name Varick is derived from Germany and means “Leader who defends”. His middle name, Vito, comes from the Italian language and means “victor”. He gained his middle name from his Sire.
Varick is an extremely confident dog and has not been faced with a challenge he did not take on head first. He is quiet and watchful taking in all of his surroundings. He adores his people and while he does have his stubborn streak, he ultimately wants to make his people happy.

Varick has sired 8 litters with us so far and all of his pups have been confident and fearless upon leaving us. They all have had medium to high drives, some of them in the way that they have been taken into homes to have jobs. 2 police k-9, 4 soon to be 5 to service dogs (PTSD, anxiety, medical), and at least 2 to search and rescue. These are just the ones that we know specifically went specifically into working homes.
Welcome to DK Shepherds
Good day everyone and welcome to our website! We thank you for popping in to say hi and see what we are all about. We love our dogs and have made them beyond spoiled.
We strive to have pups that are sound in mind and spirit. The pups we have had thus far have been fearless. Some have gone to homes and have become service dogs, and some are set to be trained for personal protection. Our pups have gone to live around the U.S. We make sure they are good and spoiled before they go to their new homes.
Please enjoy our page and our dogs. We will post updates of past litters, as well as expecting litters.
Have a great day!
