Chateau De Chief is an American King Shepherd Club (AKSC) Recommended Breeder.

*NOTICE - The AKSC considers the King Shepherd breed to be a work in progress (in development for improvement by the AKSC Recommended Breeders).  The AKSC will not condone or be responsible for puppies/dogs acquired from individuals who have been dismissed (removed, discharged) from all AKSC privileges and who additionally mislead by stating "...by choice, we are not a member of nor a breeder recognized by the AKSC..."

A sound breeding program should be developed with mentors; those who have years of experience and extensive knowledge on the particular breed, behind them.  A breeding program SHOULD NOT begin with minimal knowledge on the dogs, their background, and their conformation. Breeding is definitely not a "sport" that should be based on a whim.

Chateau De Chief cautions potential owners of King Shepherds from purchasing Kings from "so-called breeders" who

  • are not American King Shepherd Club (AKSC) Recommended Breeders or AKSC Active Member Breeders
  • are unethical breeders
  • do not support the King Shepherd Breed or the American King Shepherd Club
  • breed inferior specimens of the breed, i.e. faulty structure, head types and temperaments
  • do not breed to improve the King Shepherd, breed just for profit
  • breed two King Shepherds together just because they have access to two King Shepherds with no regard to type, temperament, soundness and size
