I was looking for a German Shepherd sense September of 2012, but I wanted a GSD that was a fit for my family. Rocky Mountain German Shepherd was the first kennel that I visited, and Jayne the owner of the Kennel was excellent. She showed me her operation and allowed me to go into any part of the kennel that I chose. I must have interacted with eight different dogs that day and each one was well rounded, trained, and respectful to me and my daughter. After my daughter and I were finished she explained how her program worked and asked me what I was looking for in a dog. Jayne spent a great deal of time getting to know me and my family to ensure that the proper dog or pup was placed with us. At the end of our meeting she never asked me for money or put any type of pressure on me for a deposit. Over the course of the next several months following September 2012 I visited eight other breeders and kennels in Colorado, and each one was more concerned with selling me a dog versus getting to know my family and what we were looking for. I even interviewed several independent trainers and they all said that Rocky Mountain German Shepherd produces sound well socialized dogs for sport and show. I then made up my mind and finally in December of 2012 I went back to Jayne and put a deposit down for a puppy from Havana. Over the course of the past nine months Jayne was always available to answer my questions and continued to provide me resources independent form her kennel to educate myself further regarding the breed, care, and training. The interesting thing was I visited her kennel three times in the past nine months and she knew who I was and my status on receiving a puppy each time when I showed up. All the kennels were always clean, and the dogs were full of energy, clean, and healthy as well. All of this is great, but here is where Jayne earned my family's loyalty. Recently I had a family issue come up and it put me in a situation where I might have had to withdrawal my position for a puppy. When I told her, she understood and didn't try to pressure me or make me feel guilty about my situation. She understood and continued to work with us. Fortunately it passed and we were able to get our puppy. Based on my interactions with other breeders I have encountered they would have never treated us with the same respect as Jayne did. Jayne not only loves the breed, but loves her dogs enough to properly socialize, and place them with matching families. If you're looking for a German Shepherd I would recommend Rocky Mountain German Shepherd, and Jayne to be your only choice. read more

We have been very happy with the GSDs that we have gotten from Jayne (three in total now, one import (Tempest) and two from litters (Storm and Rayne)) over the years. The facility is always clean and very well maintained. The dogs are social (male/female/intact/fixed). The first time I visited we stepped into a play area and a handful of shepherds came up to my father and I and immediately sat to be petted, very well behaved (many different ages of pups). Jayne is very knowledgeable about the breed and she has helped us out many times over the years with questions. The puppies we have gotten from Jayne are friendly, energetic and healthy dogs. We have gotten many compliments from individuals (including vets and dog trainers) about how stable, intelligent, healthy, and beautiful the dogs are. Each shepherd that we have gotten from Jayne fit our family perfectly. Tempest became my companion as I did inspections on construction sites and was well loved by all the crews (even sneaking a few bites of lunch from various crew members!). She kept me company and kept me safe for many years. Storm has found a joy in life doing protection training, but being such a sweet and gentle boy when not on the "job." He has a very stable personality and calm mind when doing the protection work. Rayne is our youngest and such a free spirit and a joy to watch. All the dogs have become favorites and are well loved at our vets. Jayne has also watched our shepherds over the years and we have never had any issues with them when we picked them up. It is obvious the pups enjoyed their time with "Auntie Jayne" and the chance to socialize with other dogs. She made sure our shepherds were placed with appropriate sized dogs and made sure that the interactions between the dogs were acceptable. We will continue to pick our GSDs from Jayne in the future and when anyone asks about where we get them, we give them Jayne's information. read more

It is a shame to see such poor reviews and such a shame in regards to how yelp FILTERS and picks/chooses the reviews that are shown and rated. We have purchased TWO dogs from Jayne (one was in 2015 and the second we are still waiting to take home- Christmas Puppy!). She has been over the top professional and helpful to us which is why we returned to her for our second. With our first puppy we THOUGHT he had an idea of what we wanted in a dog. Jayne took the time to talk with us and to learn about our family and home environment. We THOUGHT that the puppy we originally wanted had all the qualities we needed, we were wrong lol. Jayne say with us and the puppies and pointed us to the puppy that she felt would be the best fit for our family. Although we didn't have to select a puppy that day she did give us something to tihnk about. When we went back each week (during open house) we saw that she was right, the puppy we though we wanted seemed to be less of a fit while the puppy she picked for us was perfect! I dont know why we ever doubted her because she is the one that spends so much time with the puppies and all her animals. She really did know what is best. We are looking forward to surprising our son with the new puppy on Christmas. PS. I personally love the fact that Jayne offers boarding and training! We have used this feature a few times now when we go out of town because we know our dog will be outside and not crammed in a kennel all day. And when we get him back hes better behaved lol. Jayne I dont know if you read these reviews but THANK YOU! You and your staff are wonderful! read more

I couldn't be happier with my dog, imported from Germany by Jane at RMGSD. We work with a lot of breeders at CombatK9.com and we can afford to buy dogs from anyone in the world. We traveled to Colorado and visited the Rocky Mountain GSD kennels (beautiful spot in the mountains near Bailey) and I've now purchased two great GSD's from Jane. (Yankee and Wolfgang) I wanted to comment because the good stories never get posted to this site. I found some Yelp reviews when I was searching for their website (rockymountaingsd.com) to send to a friend. I still recommended them, and I shook my head at some of the things I read. Anyone who has lost a great dog can tell you how terrible it feels. But a dog is not a robot with a warranty, you bought a living animal. There are breeders that have "no questions asked" exchange or refund guarantees, and if that is important to you, do your research ahead of time. Not all breeders can afford to cover natural loss of life. Some do, but that is the exception to the rule. I find that its so emotional after a pet dies, that people can act crazy. Some of these posts sound very emotional. Here's my take on it, to set the record straight for Yelp. Jane is a reputable breeder, well known in the community, and she was suggested to me by a well known trainer in Schutzhund. I can state categorically that she breeds "healthy dogs", is definitely not a puppy mill, and I've met her vet face to face at her location. read more

This past Summer we purchased our Sonny from Rocky Mountain German Shepherds and we could not be happier with our puppy and with the services provided by Rocky Mountain GSD. Back in April we decided to start our search for a male German Shepherd pup. We discovered Rocky Mountain German Shepherds and decided to take a drive up to Connifer, CO that weekend. After meeting with Jayne, we new immediately that we wanted to purchase our puppy from her. The kennel was very clean and well maintained. All of her adult dogs had amazing temperments and were well trained. I wanted to take them all home with me! We ended up purchaing our Sonny from Rocky Mountain GSD at the end of May and we were beyond thrilled. Sonny was imported from Poland and comes from the highest quality bloodlines. He has been the absolute best addition to our family!! With his amazing temperment, strong loyalty, and his protective instincts, he is the perfect family companion! When Sonny was 4 months old we sent him back to Rocky Mountain GSD for their 30 day training program. We dropped off a pup and 30 days later picked up a well trained, sociaized and confident dog. We love our pup to death and we are so thankful! We are planning to purchase another pup from Jayne when Sonny gets a little older and we would definitly recommend Rocky Mountain German Shepherds to anybody!! read more

We have purchased two dogs from Jayne and her kennel and wanted to take a moment to post on yelp because there are so many untrue comments on here. It's horrible how yelp filters comments and actually doesn't post all of the reviews and comments, they pick and choose! Jayne was so very helpful when we were picking out puppies. We thought we knew what we wanted and she took the time to understand what we wanted and needed and paired us with the perfect dog. He is now three and we are waiting tip take home our second from her. I wouldn't go anywhere else. These are quality Dogs, friendly, healthy and she treats them all like pets (because they are). This is far from those dirty and horrible puppy farms that work with pretty stores and she's professional unlike home breeders. We had also taken our older make to Jayne for training and will be doing so again with our new puppy, I swear she's a dog whisperer!!!! Jayne I don't know if you read these reviews but thank you. Those of you on the fence of going to Jayne, just do it! Meet her and take a tour and then decide if you want a puppy. Like I said it's a shame yelp filters comments and reviews like this so you only see the invalid complaints. read more

We finally got the girl puppy of our dreams. After spending about 6 months researching different German Shepherd breeders in Colorado we felt that Jayne and RMGSD fit our needs the best. Jayne was super helpful in helping us select a pairing that would produce a female dog's temperament that we most desired for our family. (BIG THANKS to Jayne for that work!), but she really knows all of her dogs so well. When we met the parents of our puppy, Balto, the father, was super friendly and well mannered. We really liked that all of her dogs were well cared for and all well trained...not just crazy dogs. We have kids in our house so we wanted to ensure our dogs had a great temperament which our Puppy sure does! We had to wait a little bit for our puppy's litter and received ours as promised with a full book of details on both the mom, dad, training, history that our kids love to read and share at school. She loves to be taken wherever we go and training so far has been true to form, she loves to work and has a great temperament for which we receive many compliments daily. When I can convince my wife to get another dog, we would be sure to come to Jayne for a male. read more

My husband and I finally are buying a home and we went to RMGS to look around, thinking it is time to get a puppy. Pulling up to the grounds, we were met by a gigantic black german shepherd (Glock) and a little brown and black puppy (Vicki) bounding up to us. We were in German Shepherd heaven. Jayne and her assistant showed us around, and we met all of the dogs and the litters that were currently being raised. Every one of the dogs, the mamas with litters and the huge studs, were so friendly. You could tell they were happy, loved and well-cared for. Hopefully we will be bringing home a puppy shortly after closing on our house. We are also thinking about taking home Vicki. Vicki is a puppy they were planning on breeding down the road. They found out she had a mild heart murmur and they thought it best for her health and the health of the pups to not breed her. RMGS are truly ethical, loving breeders. I get the feeling that they will provide lifetime support when we have questions, and they welcome visitors during Saturday open hours (I can see bringing the pup back to visit.) Can't wait to bring our puppy (and maybe Vicki, too) home. read more

When we first found RMGS, we had just lost our old dog to cancer. Jayne was so patient as we visited week after week to get to know one of the litters that had just been born. She allowed us to visit with the puppies every Saturday afternoon for as long as we wanted--taking the puppies out of mom's sight into the yard, holding them, taking photos of them. Finally we picked a pup at 6 weeks and this month he is a year old. It has been a wonderful year with our GSD, and we have boarded him a few times at Jaynes. He always comes back better behaved than he was. If I could part with my dog, I would have him trained at RMGS, but unfortunately I can't part with him for a month, so we have done our own obedience courses. Next weekend our puppy will take the Canine Good Citizens test and we are sure he will pass. Thanks to Jayne, we have a wonderful, exceptional dog. We couldn't have asked for a better temperament or personality from our pup. He is also incredibly beautiful--we can't walk out the door without people complimenting him on how good looking he is. This is a great GSD breeder if you are looking for that special addition to your family! read more

I am confused as to why yelp says theres only 9 reviews...there are DOZENS (almost 60) for this business listed here and I only noticed this business is nothing but crapy reviews when I came here to post about my wonderful expireance. Shame on Yelp for "hiding" the happy customers and I am SOOOO HAPPY that I didnt look here first before I went to Jayne, as my friend reffered my family to her. Our dog would not listing AT ALL, would piss all over the house and completely ignore me and nip/bite at us. We looked into Jaynes board and train program as everything we tried failed...we read books, tried the training at Pet shops and even a local "trainer"...nothing worked. We invested the money to have our dog complete jaynes program while we went on a family trip. HAPPY WE DID! Our dog is amazing now and Jayne even "trained" us too on how to upkeep the training and what to do if we needed extra help. AMAZING. Thank yo Jaynes help we now have a great family dog that we were almost going to send back to the pound. We loved Jayne and her dogs so much we have a deposite down for a Summer puppy to add to the family and are so excited. read more

In May 2013 we placed our German Shepard female (4/5 month old) with Jayne and her team for the 30 day Board & Train. We live in northern Wyoming and needed help with our very dominate pup because we were in the middle of caring for my mother with end stage cancer and needed their expert advice. We toured the facility before leaving our pup with them and we were very pleased the whole facility. Thirty days later we traveled to Conifer to pick up our "Lady Klair" we also saw the facility again. All of the dogs and pups that we saw were in great shape and flourishing. Jayne spent two hours with us to review all of the training commands and to show Lady's best abilities. More importantly we were highly pleased the training and would not hesitate doing it again with another Shepard pup. In fact we plant to further the training using the team at Rocky Mountain German Shepherds once we move back to Colorado later this year. We are very proud of our Lady Klair- she is well behaved and a joy to take all over. We get so many comments about her great behavior. I would highly recommend the board and train program. read more

We recently received Zara from Rocky Mountain German Shepherds and could not be more pleased. Our family was in need of a particularly dominant female with the specific intention for her to participate in Executive Protection Training when she is older. We have children in the house along with another male and Jayne helped us determine the best pairing for our needs! I've trained tons of dogs here in Colorado and LOVE the temperament of the dogs that come from RMGSDs. While you can't guarantee a dog, we could not be more thrilled with her temperament, drive, and willingness to work! I've also personally visited the kennel many times and Jayne knows EVERY dog. All adult dogs are trained & have amazing temperaments. I wouldn't hesitate to get another family dog from them. It's sad to see that the positive reviews on this site are not displayed for viewers like me to see. Simply click the VIEW OTHER comments I think is at the bottom and you'll see them there. read more

Myself and family visited RMGS at least 6 times before we brought home our little boy. You will be hard pressed to find a more natural setting to raise pups nor a cleaner facility of this size. Sure, Jayne runs a large breeding facility, but how else would someone have this much experience? Jayne is patient, alert and knowledgeable. Pups get human socialization by the kennel's unique philosophy of allowing the pups to interact with visitors in an open and safe setting. Their adults in or out of their pens, are remarkably calm. Never did Jayne ignore one of my many emails, pressure me to buy a pup or treat me with anything but respect. On the pick up day, we spent time together going over the breed, training, feeding, micro chipping, vaccinations and pedigree. Our pup was clean, healthy well socialized. We can't wait to raise him. Couldn't be more pleased with RMGS! Lee D. read more

I have a hard time believing the prior reviews about Jayne and her business. My boyfriend and I purchased one of her pups back in June. She has been nothing but kind and helpful. Any email I sent was replied back to within 24 hours. Our little pup is absolutely beautiful. Jayne and the rest of her team at Rocky Mountain German Shepherds take the time to set you up with a perfect addition to your family. We found decided on RMGS after doing a lot of research online. And after we visited the location and met with Jayne we knew we made the right decision. It was after this that I learned that a coworker of mine also got his GSD from Jayne 2 years prior. She came highly recommended. I would hope that anyone looking for a good quality GSD family member would do their research as I did mine and make an educated decision as to where to get your next furry family member. read more

I have purchased 4 dogs from the owner and this company and I continue to go back due to the wonderful family that breeds and trains the dogs. Jayne has been a pleasure to work with and we love to keep her up to day on how the dogs are doing (and she responds and cares back.) All our dogs are healthy and infact health is promised in the paperwork that we recieved. When we first got our first puppy from her we called her atleast twice a week with puppy and training questions and she always responded and was more than happy to help us. I love the owner, her family and the dogs the she breeds! They are wonderful, playful, friendly, loving and extreamly healthy animals and the owner ensures that and she stresses that to us each time we buy a dog from her. We are repeat clients due to the wonderful dogs she breeds and her wonderful and caring nature as the breeder. read more

We had a very positive experience with Rocky Mountain German Shepherds. We got our dog, now almost 8 months old, back in April. The process of buying the pup went smoothly and took about 6 months as we were very picky about the dog - we have two small children, so temperament was #1 for us. The process went very smoothly. Our dog is wonderful - he has a great personality, is so smart and friendly and most importantly, I never worry about him with kids. He loves kids and has an overall fabulous temperament. He is a great addition to our family, and everyone always remarks about what a great dog he is. I found Jayne very easy to work with and never felt she was dishonest in any way. Through the entire selection process, I always felt like she was trying to find us the best match for our family and not just collect our money. read more

Love visiting Rocky Mountain German Shepherds! I bought Jake from Jayne a year ago and absolutely love him. I occasionally go visit and am always warmly welcomed by Jayne and crew. When I bought Jake, the process was very friendly and professional. She has obviously been doing this for a long time and is very knowledgeable. I knew I wanted a German Shepherd but was a little concerns about a number of items regarding training and obedience but Jayne made sure I was comfortable with the entire process. The day she introduced me to Jake to come home I knew right away this was a special dog. He is the most loyal, obedient and happy dog I have ever met. Awesome job! - My only complaint is distance from my home in Parker but it's worth the drive. read more

I have purchased five German Shepherds from Jayne over the years. After thorough research of German Shepherd Breeders all over the United States, I found that Jaynes' services, quality of dogs and pricing were superior. I have never had any problems with communication with Jayne. She is a wealth of knowledge and answers my questions about the dog's linage, her breeding practices, the dogs constitution and any challenges that I may have in raising or training my dogs. I highly recommend her services to anybody who wants to add a quality German Shepherd to their family. Her dogs are excellent working dogs as well as great companions, protective but great with kids and house guests. read more
