The Olderhill German Shepherd Dog (GSD), or Alsatian
(a different name for the same breed), is a unique bloodline of working german shepherd dogs. Bred from West German working dogs imported to England after the Second World War, they have been selected for working ability and health for nearly half a century, and for 30 years used by the british police. They are the original big, healthy, flat-backed German Shepherd Dogs of the 1940's that have been preserved over time and isolated from new bloodlines and fashion.

In 1994 we (Cornfield's Kennels) were lucky enough to import some of the last Olderhills bred by Ann Butler, the original breeder (see history). We crossed the olderhills with our own line of working german shepherds and have continued to do so for the last 20 years without using any other german shepherd lines.
We have preserved the magnificant working Olderhills, in looks and temperament, that were bred by Ann and the british police and it seems that we now have the last remaining true Olderhills in the world.
