About Mayhew German Shepherds

Meet the Breeder

Our Breeding Philosophy

I'm Denise Mayhew, of Mayhew German Shepherds, in Beaverdam, VA. I breed German Shepherds out of passion for the breed, focusing on a healthy, nurturing environment that helps each puppy reach its full potential and become a loving, well-balanced family companion.


Our Breeding Philosophy

Our Breeding Philosophy

Mayhew German Shepherds is a responsible breeder dedicated to raising healthy, well-socialized German Shepherd puppies with excellent temperament. All parent dogs undergo comprehensive genetic testing and hip and elbow evaluations, and each puppy comes with a health guarantee to ensure peace of mind and a lifelong match with a loving family.

Breeding Program

Denise Mayhew is the heart behind Mayhew German Shepherds. Denise emphasizes the importance of health and temperament, ensuring that her puppies are healthy and embody the unique characteristics that make German Shepherds such a beloved breed. She believes in creating a nurturing environment to help her puppies thrive, and she stands by her commitment with a puppy guarantee.

Puppy Training & Health

Our puppy training includes:

  • Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) to provide our healthy puppies with essential developmental support.
  • Early Scent Introduction (ESI) is a crucial practice for a German Shepherd breeder, as it introduces healthy puppies to new scents in a controlled environment. 
  • Crate training from week 6 until they go home
  • House training including household sounds, potty training, and basic commands


Puppy health practices include: 

  • Vet check
  • First round of shots and deworming
  • Microchip
  • Vet records
