My wife and I have owned seven German Shepherd Dogs during our 42 years plus of marriage. Charlie, our newest and seventh German Shepherd Dog, is one of the best we have ever had the pleasure of brining into our home and family. Charlie is extremely intelligent, has excellent temperment and has the structure and confirmation that every German Shepherd Dog should have. He is a happy guy and by far the healthest dog we have ever had. Megan has done an outstanding job breeding these dogs.

Besides breeding excellent GSD dogs Megan and her staff at Haus Juris are a pleasure to work with, always willing to answer your questions from raising and feeding your dog to grooming and maintaning your dog's health. As an added bonus, Haus Juris offers an excellent and well rounded training program. We are training both Charlie and our 6 year old female GSD, Abby, with Haus Juris. We live in Williamsburg, Virginia and drive over two and one half hours each way to train. We could not be more pleased with our results and recommend Megan and Haus Juris German Shepherds to anyone looking for a GSD puppy or for dog training.

We are so happy with the puppy we got from Haus Juris. Her temperament is phenomenal. She is playful, attentive, super smart, emotional (she is excited to greet us). She is a tremendous joy. We feel they did a remarkable job pairing our family with the puppy. We also benefited from a puppy information class, very helpful. Throughout the year, we occasionally called them and they always answered our questions.

Haus Juris and its staff is absolutely amazing! I have never met a group of trainers and staff that knows so much about dogs but most importantly love what they do! Chrystal is by far the best. You team her up with Megan, the owner and these two women are unstoppable when it comes to training your dog. Can't forget to mention Linda Brandy Jess and the most fun puppy trainer Kristen. Seriously all these ladies are phenomenal! Haus Juris is definitely the place to be it has boarding grooming food training and it's just one of those places that you just want to hang out at even after you're done training just to talk about dogs. Would not go anywhere else especially with my precious pup.

Chrystal and Megan are top notch dog trainers and behaviorists. I have a reactive dog and the improvement has been incredible; everyone who knows my dog tells me how he looks like a different dog. Haus Juris is about 45-60 minutes away from us and the weekly drive for training is totally worth it. Highly recommended!

We bought our first Haus Juris puppy 2 weeks ago and couldn't be happier. Megan was always willing to help with any questions we had and her staff was very helpful getting everything we needed to travel back home. Even though we have had German shepherds before, we thought Chrystal put on an amazing puppy seminar which we learned a lot from. We thank everyone at Haus Juris for our newest family member.

We bought our Leah here 6 years ago and could not be happier. She is a wonderful, gentle dog. Her disposition is amazing. She has been trained as a therapy dog and is loved by all we meet. I would buy another Shepherd from Haus Juris any day.
