NordOsten Kennel is located in Northeastern Massachusetts breeding mostly East working line German Shepherds (some with a little West & Czech lines). Our goal is to breed the best temperaments and health, dogs that can be good family members or working companion. 

I started breeding German Shepherds in 1998 after my good friend Linda from Miles River Training Kennel, introduced me to the East German Shepherds. I purchase my first German female, Tula Von Barren Berg,  from her in 1996,  then Zella Von Barren Berg in 1999, and the rest is history. I breed for temperament, health & structure. My dogs and pups are raised around kids and are very social. It is important to keep my dogs healthy and happy so they produce the same. When choosing a stud dog, I look for excellent temperament, stable nerves, good hips and other qualities that will compliment my females. I want a dog that can be a good family companion and also capable of sport. Check out the testimonial page to see what some of my customers have to say.
