★★★★★ review · 

We were actually referred to CecIlia by another breeder who conveyed high praise and recommendation for her high quality German Sheppard animals at Southernwind Kennels after a vigilant year-long search. We visited multiple breeders’ facilities and ultimately determined she offered the best quality German Sheppard by careful breeding techniques, care, love, and knowledge that is boasted by her 40 years of extensive experience. YOU must visit her kennel before purchasing an animal anywhere else! When you purchase from Southernwind Kennels you will be getting much more than a very high-quality animal! While you are sizing-up Southernwind Kennels, you are being equally sized-up by CecIlia—She actually cares about where her animals are going and truly wants to do her absolute best for YOU and THE ANIMAL. She will offer her recommendation based on your and a puppy’s unique personality from the litter, but ultimately it is your choice. She wants updates on how you and the animal are doing and loves for you to send pictures because she truly cares and we suspect she may actually utilizes the data for future breeding activities. It is also very important to know upfront that you are getting engaged in a value-added network, `services, and resources that other breeders tend to shy away from. Most breeders we met want to sell the animal and move on to the next buyer— You are not a buyer at Southernwind Kennels; you are part of the pack. You get ongoing professional advice and referrals to other professionals if you so desire. Southernwind Kennels gives you the best foundation, but remember that YOU are the one ultimately responsible for shaping your animal’s personality and demeanor. Cecelia will continue to answer questions and help you along the way. Ask yourself how many breeders have you met that you KNOW will do that? We highly recommend Southernwind Kennels. Once you visit, you will see that it is a clean, caring, and superior facility that checks all of the boxes. Breeders do not last 40 years if they are only in it for the money. Cecelia is in it for the love of the animals and the joy she has spread for the last 40 years to many families. Just look at the totality of her very impressive reviews!

We Purchased our German Shepherd Kyle to be a service dog for our son with Autism. Kyle has been nothing but amazing to our family ... He is the most gentle calm caring dog I have ever seen in my life...He is so smart its incredible it takes me about 20 minutes to train him to do something fun and new for the kids like stick em up! Everywhere we go people ask so many questions about him because they just can't believe how beautiful and well mannered he is. Cecilia truly has an amazing gift with breeding the perfect dogs ...I highly highly recommend her you will never regret it ... Everyday Kyle makes me smile and so happy he is my Giant teddy bear ! Thank you Cecilia for giving us such an amazing dog we truly appreciate it

I know her for more than 20 years, and my experience is that every single dog I have had of her, exceeded my expectations on the physique, temperament and performance. The quality of her dogs comes from her dedication, knowledge and experience. I have Labradors and had exquisite Dobermans and Shepherds.

I'm so happy that I found Cecelia / Southernwind when I started my search for a Doberman. She is always there to answer all of my questions and help with anything. When I went to pick up my first Doberman from her I noticed how Absolutely beautiful her Germen Shepherd's were. To Date I have Went back to her for my second Doberman and a Germen Shepherd. These dogs are well taken care of and have the best temperaments .In my opinion she is the ONLY place to get your Doberman or German Shepherd
