Picked up our Puppy 4/10/21. Guardian Kennel is operated very professionally. Nice and clean too. Joe does a marvelous job and made our experience very rewarding. We love our "OZZY". Thanks!

Our Guardian baby had his 5th birthday today. He has been a truly amazing and invaluable addition to our family. He is great with our 4 year old boy and I'm sure will be just as protective of our soon to be little girl. He has become the mascot or our neighborhood and neighborhood kids often ask us to let him out just so they can play with him. Joe has produced breed after breed of stunning, loyal and protective Guardian babies and once you buy from him you are welcomed into the Guardian Family that is as informative as it is supportive.

We got our baby just over a year ago and we could not be happier. As owner of pet sitting buissness we see ALOT of different dogs. Knox is simply the sweetest,loyal social, and loving dig we could have dreamed up. We know that providing quality dogs is not luck. It's patience, socializing, selectivity, and love that guardian gives them. When we are ready for the next love of our lives we will come to guardian.

What can't I say about the Guardian Kennel in Waco?!?!?!?! The best of the BEST! Joe is amazing at what he does. All of his GSD's are beautiful, intelligent and in a word incredible. Joe has become an important part of our family for no other reason than we can not stand one minute much less one day with out our baby boy! I can't say enough great things about Joe, all of his babies and the experience of becoming part of the Guardian family.

I don't really know where to start. Our experience with the Guardian Kennel has been amazing. Joseph exceeded every expectation I had from a breeder. I first called Joseph a few months ago when my husband and I started looking around at breeders for a new GS puppy. Everyone I called would tell me their price and availability and not much more. It was strictly business, kind of like if you want a puppy and are willing to pay $xx come and get it. Then I called Joseph and he actually took the time to speak to me and learn a little bit more about what I am looking for, what kind of a home a puppy would be going to and to tell me about his dogs and how they are raised/where they came from. I was so impressed and decided after that first phone call that we would be getting our baby from him. At the time the P litter had just arrived but the Q litter (Sugar and Laso) was to be born in a month or so. I decided to wait on the Q litter as I fell in love with the photos I have seen of Laso. The puppies arrived and we went to visit them at 4 weeks old. Joseph and his wife welcomed us into his home to visit the puppies. Again, I was more than impressed with everything I saw. First of all, Joseph kept the puppies with their mom Sugar in his bedroom along with a couple of other adult dogs living inside the house. I couldn’t believe how good his home smelled with all those dogs inside. Everything was extremely clean. We played with the puppies and I fell in love with Quantam. We had a second pick and weren’t guaranteed we would get him but I had a feeling he’d be ours. We also got to play with Laso outside and meet some of the other dogs. Joseph answered the million questions we had and I knew right away we’d become good friends. Two weeks later we couldn’t wait to see the puppies so we drove down from Fort Worth once again. The puppies were outside this time and we had a great time playing with everyone. Finally the day came to pick up our little boy. On our way down Joseph texted me to let me know the 1st pick was chosen by the other family and it wasn’t Quantam. I was super excited!!! I knew we’d have that little monster. When we arrived, several other families were there to pick up their babies as well. Joseph planned a get together with food and drinks for everyone’s big day. Again, it was fun times and we finally got our baby. We’ve had our Guardian baby for 2 weeks now and couldn’t be happier with him. He is now known as Bruno and we love him oh so much!! Joseph has been very helpful with yet another million questions I’ve had since we got Bruno. He’s always quick to respond and truly cares what happens to these babies once they leave. I could keep writing but really there is no words that could describe how happy with are with our decision to get Bruno from the Guardian Kennel. I’d do it all over again and I will recommend them to everyone I know that may be looking for a GSD. We look forward to many happy years with Bruno! Thank you thank you thank you!! ........ UPDATE: Five years later we are still very happy that we got our puppy from Joe! We still keep in touch and he’s always interested in hearing about how Bruno is doing. Joe even has a private Facebook page for all his dog owners to come together and chat about anything and everything, share advice and photos of our beautiful babies. We now have a 15 month old daughter and Bruno is nothing short of amazing with her. He’s the most beautiful dog and we always get compliments on his looks and demeanor. We always recommend Joe to anyone that’s looking for a German Shepherd puppy. ❤️

We bought a black German Shepherd puppy from the Guardian Kennel 10 days ago. We are extremely happy with our puppy Storm. He is gorgeous and is learning quickly. Our veterinarian was impressed with his health. He was 20 lbs at 9 weeks, so he will be a big boy. Joseph, the kennel owner is awesome and extremely knowledgeable. He stayed in contact with us while we were waiting for the puppy to be old enough to pick up. We loved getting frequent photos of Storm’s growth. The Guardian Kennel facility is well layed out and super clean, and meeting Joseph was a pleasure. If we decided on an additional puppy in the future, we would definitely go back to the Guardian Kennel. I highly recommend giving Joseph a call if you are thinking about adding a German Shepherd puppy to your life.
