Q: Are your dogs Shiloh Shepherds / Shiloh Shepherd Dogs?

No, Shiloh Shepherds are a non-AKC registered breed "in development" created from a specific blend of larger German Shepherd Dogs (most originating from Shiloh Kennels) crossed with a mix known as MAW by Tina Barber. While Tina Barber may have originated the Shiloh Shepherd breed, she produced many pure AKC registered German Shepherds as well. We breed AKC registered German Shepherd Dogs. Most do have "Shiloh lines" in that parts of their pedigrees can trace back to the German Shepherd Dogs from Shiloh kennel and the AKC foundations of the Shiloh Shepherd breed who did NOT have the MAW factor. Some familiar names in our dogs' pedigrees include:

Shiloh's Easy Rider

Shiloh-Guardian Still Smokin'

Lucas Von Shiloh Special

Shiloh's Wolfin Sasquatch

Shiloh-Kari's Steel Saber

Morris Good Morning Mona

Shiloh's Kara Lobo Of Emmview

Shiloh's Smoke-In-Szar

Di-Mars Shiloh's Princess Leia

Super Sweet Sabrina Selah

NOT a Shiloh Shepherd, but has shiloh lines

An example of our dogs would be pictured above, Rayne, who has some Shiloh lines. Her height is almost 28" at the shoulder, with a weight of around 95-100 pounds. She is typical of what we breed for - health and intelligence with a sweet temperament. Aesthetically, a long coat and straighter back as well as having an impressive stature.

Again, while our dogs may look very similar and be indirectly related, our dogs are NOT considered Shiloh Shepherds and are 100% German Shepherd Dogs of traceable lineage.

As a note, up until at least the early 1990s Tina Barber's dogs were AKC registered. Once the MAW factor was brought in, obviously the resulting dogs were no longer AKC German Shepherd Dogs, and around that time, Tina also changed her kennel name to Zion / New Zion. Some owners and breeders of those pure AKC dogs originating from Shiloh Kennels chose to retain their AKC paperwork when the founder and others left to form the Shiloh Shepherd registry during that time period. However, in the end, "Shiloh lines does not a Shiloh Shepherd make" and does not mean that any of the dogs in its ancestry were crossed with anything else but AKC registered German Shepherd Dogs.
