Hi Susan,

Since I got Rex from you in October – he has been nothing short of joy. His disposition and how smart and intelligent he is – is a compliment and testimonial to you and John.

Here are some pictures I would like to share with you.

Thank you again for bringing Rex into my life.

Sincerely, John Grando

John & Susan,

Debbie and I picked up or puppy, Ruger on January 1 2009. I just wanted to drop you a line and bring you up to date on his life. First he is spoiled. He has a great disposition and personality. He loves to play and even chases butterflies. Last week though we were at out cabin in northwest Wyoming when a 185 pound mountain lion paid us a visit. When I walked outside of the cabin, Ruger charged the lion and chased him off. He stopped and returned to me as soon as I called. I know he was protecting me and our other German Shepard. He has always been a family member to us, and now it is obvious that we are his family also. Thanks, Larry.

Nick vom Kolenda

I was a spectator at the 2006 USA Sieger show when I met John & Susan Kolenda. They were competing in the three day event with their dog Ludo. I learned a lot about German Shepherds. There were dogs from all over the world competing, when Kolenda’s Ludo made VA against this tough competition. I decided right then to buy a puppy from them, which turned out to be the best choice I could have made.

2006 North American Sieger Show Zeus vom Kolenda

John & Susan

Thank you for convincing me to attend and to compete in the North American Seiger Show in St. Loius. I am very glad I decided to show Zeus. Seeing all those Shepherds compete at the show has given me an even greater appreciation for German Shepherds and how truly special they are. I was impressed in how serious the owners, judges, trainers, and the dogs themselves take competing. As I was returning home from the show, I realized how lucky I am to have Zeus as my friend, companion, and member of my family. Zeus is growing into a great looking, obedient, and smart dog. I constantly get compliments on what a great looking dog he is. He has become very well known and liked in my neighborhood. I have had several dog trainers I have met ask me if they could be Zeus’ trainer. Zeus has a trainer and she has taken such a liking to him that she has become a good friend to me and Zeus. I am lucky that she has taken a personal interest in helping me train Zeus. As you know, Zeus is the very first dog I’ve owned. I truly could not have asked for a better friend and companion. Regards,

Hi Susan 🙂

I just wanted to let you know that we are quickly approaching Rage’s 3rd birthday. She is the daughter of V Cay and Frizi and is still the most wonderful German Shepherd in the world. She loves running around the 10 acres of land we own in Plains, MT, and looks forward to the many car rides/hikes that we take her on in the mountains around here. She gets A LOT of compliments from passersby, and I am constantly plugging your kennel 🙂 People are always so amazed by her sweet temperament and beautiful features. I could not be a more proud owner.
