Woodside German Shepherds is a leading breeder of quality German Shepherds, breeder of over 150 Canadian and American Champions. Also wonderful family companion dogs. All dogs sold with a lifetime health guarantee aginst any genetic problems.
This breeder has gone DOWN HILL and needs to be shut down. Worst of all, she seems to care very little about the overall health of the dogs she's producing. We have 2 of her dogs. I should have known something was wrong when sandy told us that our female shepherd had "Khimosabi" on both sides of pedigree. We just put our male down. He suffered from inflammatory bowel disease his whole life. We later found out his sister passed the same way. He was EXTREMELY aggressive as well. Shes gotta stop.
Bought my first dog from Sandy in 1987, she was a beautiful dog and so smart. Bought our second dog in 2009. She had terrible digestive and fear problems from the beginning. Contacted Sandy but she was no help at all. Tried everything, numerous training classes and socialization but she is still fearful of everything and everyone. She is 7 now and has severe problems with her hips and cannot go after a ball anymore or go for a walk. So sad.
Do not buy a dog from Woodside! Bought a dog a few months ago from Sandy. She is very aggressive despite us non-stop socializing her from a puppy, she has seen MULTIPLE trainers, yet there have been no improvement. Are dog also has digestion problems, and has bit somebody because she is fear aggressive / dog aggressive. Not even fear based, this is REAL genetic aggression, do not buy from this breeder! Reviews are what she writes for HERSELF.
I have known Sandy for about 20 yrs and have bought 2 dogs from her kennel...Visited the kennel when we bought our first dog and was amazed at how clean and organized it was...We saw the whole business and we were really impressed with Sandy...She is a no nonsense person and tells you exactly how it is...Any time we needed to talk to Sandy about either of our dogs she was always available.I would not hesitate to reccomend Woodsides for anyone looking to buy a German Shepherd.
I have purchased two shepherds from this breeder. They are of quality and healthy. I found her to be very knowledgeable of the breed and very caring about her dogs. She has been helpful with any concerns or issues that I have had and has assisted me in raising these puppies. I'm happy that I found a breeder that is always accessible and continues to be a resource to me.I would recommend her for a puppy.
