Heidelberg German Shepherds
Bred for Outstanding Temperament, Size & Beauty
NEW ANNOUNCEMENT BELOW
Hello Heidelberg family!
We wanted to take a moment to share some important updates with you. As many of you may already know, Wayne will be retiring, and as a result, Heidelberg will be closing and his property is now up for sale.
However, we have yet to receive a suitable offer and given the time it takes to finalize a sale, we have carefully considered our options. We have decided that Heidelberg will remain open beyond the original closing date, but with some changes. From now on, we will solely function as a boarding facility and will no longer be involved in breeding. Additionally, our Professional Breeders Formula dog food will still be available for purchase during this period. These services will continue until the sale of Heidelberg is finalized.
You can continue to count on Wayne, Cheryl, Samantha, Laura Ramon, Dalma, Albert, Michael, Antonio, Bobby & Andy for any support or assistance you may need.
We appreciate your understanding and loyalty during this change, and we are committed to providing a smooth transition for our Heidelberg family.
Dear Heidelberg Family,
We are announcing the hard decision to retire and close Heidelberg Kennels. We are hoping to remain open through Christmas but as of now we really have no idea what our last day will be. We will notify you when we have a better time frame. That being said, Wayne has put the property up for sale and you may see a For Sale Sign in the front in the next few days.
We are going to begin the slow process of phasing out our facility. We will not be breeding dogs anymore but we will continue our boarding and bathing until we have to turn the property over if we get a buyer.
It has been an experience of a lifetime to breed German Shepherds and bring happiness and security to families in our great state of Texas, all over the United States and even foreign countries. Heidelberg has been a go to place for great temperament and great beauty and gentleness that our dogs possess.
We have had life long relationships and friendships with clients for the past 50 years. It has been a pleasure hearing stories that parents, children and grandchildren have with dogs that we have bred and loving the breed enough to be a multi generation dog family.
It is time to step away from Heidelberg and continue with the next phase of our lives such as traveling, being with our families and enjoying retirement.
Please stop in and visit with us this next few months. Our plan is to give one more Christmas and New Year to our clients and have time to meet and see you and tell you that we will miss every one of you.

We are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming outpouring of love and support we have received since sharing this update. Your messages and phone calls have touched our hearts deeply. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you. Rest assured, we are not going anywhere just yet. We are still here, continuing to operate as we always have. However, please understand that it will take several months, possibly even a year, before everything is fully settled. As we navigate through this process, we will keep you informed about important matters such as contracts, food, supplies, AKC paperwork, and more. Stay tuned for updates on our Facebook page. Thank you once again for your unwavering support.
Our Standard for Preservation
Heidelberg German Shepherds are bred Especially for Outstanding Predictable Temperament, Intelligence & Health. Heidelberg Shepherds are much larger in size than most German Shepherds but are very harmonious physically with Exceptionally large bone. Our Males and Females are very deep chested as specified in the Standard for the German Shepherd with the chest extending well below the elbows and a slight tuck-up to the stomach (not gutty looking like some of our competitors dogs.) Heidelberg Shepherds are Very Loving and Sweet with your family, friends, acquaintances, and especially Children, BUT are absolutely fearless when the family or other pets are endangered. One Hundred and Seventy One (171) of our shepherds have finished their Championships as of 2022. We have been in the business of breeding and showing since 1978. Our dogs are AKC registered with breeding agreements. All of our Sires are at least 2, have finished with their Championship title and have passed OFA certifications (which go back 19 plus generations).
