Our Services
Dog Training Services
Dog ownership is a long-term commitment and should be enjoyable, not a source of stress and frustration.
We believe in building a strong, positive foundation between dog and owner through positive reinforcement.
We’ll do an evaluation of you and your dog then recommend a comprehensive program designed to reach your goals.
Dog Sports & Events
Dock diving is about teaching your dog to jump as far and as high as they can into the pool.
Barn hunting is where you and your canine partner search bales of straw looking for hidden objects.
Nosework puts your dog’s nose to the test. See how well they would fare as a detection pup!
Dog Boarding & Spa
We proudly offer first-class dog boarding and services to Sacramento, El Dorado, Folsom, Granite Bay, Jackson and Ione areas.
Our spacious enclosures provide your pet with all the comforts of home.
And, with plenty of outdoor activities, your pet may enjoy their time away more than you do!

COVID-19 Protocols
As a response to the COVID-19 crisis, we are conducting “Contactless Transitions” during all pickup and dropoffs. We are slowly increasing our traditional pickup and dropoff. We will have the office staffed for evening pickup and dropoff between 4pm-6pm Monday-Friday beginning April 15, 2020. If you feel most comfortable having staff present, be sure to choose this time. However, we will continue to conduct contactless pickup and dropoff during all morning and weekend pickup and dropoff times. If you are not familiar with this process, You will make your appointment as normal, but you will be given instructions on how to drop off or pickup your dog. All payment will be done via credit card prior to drop-off. We recognize there are some situations where we need to work with you directly on the exchange. Hand sanitizer and physical distancing will happen during these rare times. Sadly Social Time is suspended given the most recent CDC recommendations.
Testimonials & Reviews
Purebred Walburga
German Shepherds
Walburga German Shepherds is dedicated to preserving the true working heritage of the German Shepherd Dog. We breed moderate to high drive working German Shepherd dogs suitable for Police, Search and Rescue, Service Dogs and the most important, family companions. While our breeding program is directed towards breeding of high drive dog, not every puppy is going to be suitable for that type of work. We have many successful service dogs and family companions. However, it is important to understand that our puppies must be raised well and taught what the expectations are for them in life as they grow up, or they may make different choices!
