FEEDBACK FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

Hello Kreative Family,

I thought you guys might like an update on one of your dogs. Zoe (formerly Nissa of Vanesko x Mixa) turned a year old last month and we couldn't imagine her turning out to be a better dog. She is a sweetheart with the family, plays gently with small dogs, and is just starting to become the right kind of protective with strangers.

We want to thank you for what you do and for working with us in light of our previous dog's untimely passing. This small show of gratitude is far overdue: THANK YOU!

Here are a few pictures that show her progress from half-pint, to awkward tween, to beautiful young adult. Note how the markings around her eyes change and her perfect conformation.

Best Wishes,

Farhood & Jenn

Hi Kreative Kennels,

I've been meaning to send you guys a little note long before now. Sorry it has taken so long. Jessie is doing very well and we just love her! She is such a sweet girl. The kids love her, and she loves the kids. Here is a picture of our family with Jessie. Thank you, thank you, thank you! She has been a wonderful addition to our family.

Thanks again,
Amy Whitehurst

Mike & Ryan,

When my daughter Kelly is out at the ranch, it's nice to know someone is keeping an eye on her. This is just a quick note to let you know that Mako is doing well and has an uncanny ability to tell good from bad. It's truly a pleasure to have him as part of our family.

Best Regards
C. Hoppin

Good afternoon, Mike and Nicolle:

Tanya and I wanted to send an update on Jessi of Kreative (May 9 2013 J litter out of Itar and Zina). From the day she arrived at DFW, she has been an absolute sweetheart--easy to train, easy to travel with, and an all around ambassador of the breed. Jessi, now named Lexi is 7 months old today, stands 22.5" and weights 52 lbs., and is developing into one of the nicest GSDs I've owned or worked with. She has excellent confirmation, is extremely confident, is very friendly (especially to children), an excellent watch dog, has superb drives, is eager to work, loves to learn, and is generally proving to be a great family and ranch dog. No matter where we take her, and we take her everywhere, we/she receives multiple complements, comments, and questions.

We are slowly and carefully conducting her training and I think she has good potential for Schutzhund, personal protection, and search-and-rescue.

Tanya and I could not be more delighted with her, and we thank you for sending us such a great dog.

I've attached two recent photos. Thanks again and Happy Holidays to everyone at Kreative Kennels.

 

 

Regards,
Baron and Tanya Lukas
Baronhof Ranch, TX

Nicolle and Mike,

I don't mean to bother you about a puppy you've already placed but I wanted you to know that this is the smartest, most readily trainable puppy I've ever seen, much less owned. She is alert and energetic and, as I've told Nicolle, has a very strong food drive. In less than a week, she has learned to respond to voice and hand signals to come and to sit at my feet and readily relieves herself within a minute after i take her outside. We're working on using the crate to teach her to let me know when she needs to go outside but that is a work in progress. The obedience training posts on your website from Joel Monroe and Michael Jen have been extremely helpful.

Thanks again for all your help and, most of all, for this wonderful puppy. She is already a member of the family.

Best regards,
Rich

Dear Mr. Osmundson,

Hello again. I wanted to put in writing to you and any whom may read this my sincerest gratitude to you and everyone else at Kreative Kennels. Just for those who were not privy to my numerous talks and emails back and forth.

I contacted you explaining what I was looking for in a personal protection dog, had to be a male and had to be beautiful and of course a German Shepherd. I assure all, that I contacted nearly every person out there who sells and trains PPD's. I found many unethical, not quite as honest and were charging enormous sums of money, usually for an inferior dog with inferior training and abilities. Many companies, kennels used glossy advertising, and were selling "pretty" German shepherds that were only able to do the "sport" end of protection, even those being imported from Germany. Beautiful dogs, high price tags on their collars and when the paws hit the pavement they would be no more able to truly protect me or my family than most other family pets! Sport protection work is not the same as real life, the dogs have to be able to work, know the difference and be discerning and effective. Most high line west German Shepherds as I was looking for and nearly everyone else being sold to the unknowing buyer does not have it! I was beginning to become dismayed, thinking my long dream and desire would not come to fruition.

After many months of reading, researching, educating myself I made a call to Mr. Osmundson (Mike). Our first conversation I found him so refreshing, so approachable, interesting and sincere. He listened to me tell my story and where I was coming from, what I was looking for and what I desired. I had my eyes on one beautiful dog he had posted, however, with his keen ability to listen effectively and he knowing the dogs and having an uncanny ability to match, he gently guided me towards another dog, but told me the decision is all mine. He explained his reasoning, he knew the history of this dog, whom he had lived with in Germany, his ease of control and his excellent obedience and impeccable manners. I took all he offered sincerely and began shifting gears towards this dog. Again, calling and speaking to him numerous times on the phone, sending email questions back and forth. After much thought and weighing the benefits I made my decision and purchased the dog that he recommended. I explained things to Mr. Osmondson that our home was not completed and it may be a few months until I was able to fly out and meet the dog. Well five months passed, and I made one of the most memorable and enjoyable trips I have taken. I spent four wonderful days training with one of the finest and dedicated trainers.

The trainers name was Joe and he is the trainer who trained my dog. He had his work cut out for him training me! This dog will always know more than I and be able to do more than I will ever be able to do with him. He is and was EVERYTHING Mr. Osmondson said he would be. Big, beautiful, easy to handle even for a beginner, extremely obedient and loves to please. The sincere dedication that not only I experienced with Mr. Osmondson was evident in each of the men whom I had the pleasure of spending time with, training with, laughing with and picking their minds about my dog, training, discipline etc. Dave, Ryan, Greg and Joe, THANK YOU for all you instilled in me and gave to my beautiful Executive trained high line west German Shepherd. It was truly four days of drills, they worked me hard, we began 7:30 am and usually didn't quit until noon! I will always smile thinking of my days in Turlock, California at Kreative Kennels. I assure any out there like me, not in law enforcement, just a mom, single woman looking for a friend with four paws that can and will protect when needed or called upon, Kreative Kennels has what you may need some day.They are truly honest, open and fun loving people. They really are a family. Thanks to them and their excellent dogs and training I feel that freedom and security is more mine now. I can go for walks anywhere alone with my dog, he goes everywhere in the car, he is always here and he gives me peace of mind and security sleeping alone and being in the home alone. I realize that most of Kreative Kennels business is for the serious work dog enthusiast and law enforcement, however, I believe there are and will be more single women like myself realizing what times we are living in and how vulnerable nearly every female is in their homes or on the streets.

I guess in closing I just want you to know how many people stop us, talk to us and ask questions all because I have this incredibly beautiful gentle giant by my side. He really is a sweetie, a big lap lover. Having him and many people just coming up to us, touching him, talking to him/me etc., has hopefully spun a more positive light on the breed so many consider "police dogs." He is that and so much more.

For Joe, Dave, Ryan, Greg, and Mr. Osmundson you know who I am and who I have, be assured I am forever grateful to each of you for what you have given me. We are all happy and settled he bonded with me immediately, he does not leave my side, goes everywhere with me and loves to go for walks. He loves me and I love him. He also loves my small children!

With much gratitude,

A single mom with a brood of terrific kids and one great German shepherd, compliments of Kreative Kennels

Mike,

I just wanted to take a moment, and express to you my very sincere Thank You for sending Halo to our home. I don't know if I ever saw a happier puppy, she's absolutely delightful. I am very impressed with her intelligence at such an early age. It's amazing that at 11 weeks she already knew our usual bedtime , and would go upstairs to her bed by herself. We see her already playing head games with the other dogs. It will be interesting to see who ends up being the alpha dog. She is very beautiful, and has a gorgeous proud stance.

I have been researching German Shepherd Breeders for the last 10 years and could never find any that matched my criteria, and then I found you. I have great respect for your mission statement, professionalism, and above all integrity. You know, it's not easy to find the high standards that I see at Kreative Kennels . Love you guys, and I'm proud to own 3 of your girls!

Mike,

I was having issues uploading these pictures onto your Facebook page, but I really wanted you to see what a stunning dog Seven (Nino x Angel, Argon N of Kreative) has become. To your credit, I have been told a couple of times that he is the type of dog that breeders strive to achieve! We couldn’t be any happier with him or Mason as well.

Thank you,
Suzan H.

Our experience with Kreative Kennels

Arriving at Kreative in Turlock, we met Greg (head trainer) and had previously spoken with Mike (the owner). We were given a tour of the facility and I was very impressed with the organization and overall care that was shown at this large facility. It became clear that this was more than a business; it is a passion for the performance and the breed of working line German Shepherd dog. We couldn’t be more pleased and satisfied with our newest K9 addition to our family pack.

In November my wife began research to add specific requirements to our next pack member. Those requirements were to find a working dog that was agile, intelligent, service trainable, driven to protect if necessary and be an all around family dog. We currently have an older Rottweiler that the new member was to join.

Our search ended with Kreative Kennels and a beautiful, alert and highly driven sable female german shepherd they called Vi. We were able to view and select from several of the same litter and after some observation it was clear that Vi was highly alert, driven and tenacious. She was it and we took her home.

Vi was renamed Rue and she has began her life with us beyond our expectations, exhibiting extreme intelligence and curiosity without the destructive behavior we had experienced with previous pups. She house trained in one week and learned some basic obedience very quickly. Our time limitations to have her excel were our greatest obstacle to Rue’s ability to learn and perform. So, for this reason and wanting to have Rue both home protection and disabled service dog trained we brought her back to Kreative for board and train to achieve our goal and develop Rue into a true working dog and fulfilling her high capability.

As I am approaching retirement, my wife and I plan to take off in our 46 foot sailboat with Rue as a crew member whom will handle the security aboard. She will be trained by Greg of Kreative to search and hold as part of her duties aboard. The staff at Kreative is personable and very willing to talk and educate on all things german shepherd dog. We appreciate you Mike, Greg and Myra as well as the staff that services and produces an excellent line.

We thank you for our Rue. We are anxiously awaiting her return. Look for more updates to come.

Mike,

Let me take this opportunity to thank you once again for providing our sheriff's office two outstanding working dogs. Indy and Herby have been a valuable asset to our agency. Due to our location being so close to the Mexican border, narcotic smuggling is a real plauge to our communities. Having these two dogs on the street has already proven to be a wise investment. Once again you and your staff have out done yourselves. I have attached some photos of narcotics which both dogs have assisted in taking off the street. Both dogs made these seizures within their first 2 weeks on the road. Thank you once again Mike. Thank your staff for us and continue to do what you guys do best which is providing law enforcement real working dogs.

Respectfully,
Javier Solis Jr
Head K9 Trainer/Coordinator

Mike & Nicolle,

My name is Eric Sergi a former customer of yours. I was looking at your website and saw that you still have a picture of Wayne under the file “Sold Dog Archive” then “Sold To The Public”.

Wayne is number 83 from the bottom. I felt compelled to write you this letter and attach some picture of Wayne so you can see how he has become a big part of our family.

I first looked into purchasing a guard dog due to the fact that our home was burglarized. I travel out of the country for work and was in need of the peace of mind that a home protection K9 could offer. An alarm system is good but won’t provide the protection from a home invasion or break-ins. It still takes time for help to arrive.

We live in an upscale golf course community in East Orlando Florida “Eastwood”. For six months our neighborhood was plagued with break-ins. Most of the time it was what police called “crimes of opportunity”. Then it turned very serious one Christmas for our neighborhood.

My neighbor owns a jewelry store in Waterford Lakes Florida. He was followed home one night by four men and his family was tied-up at gun point. He was forced to drive back to the store leaving two of the criminals behind with his wife and children. They were all let go without any serious physical harm but it could have gone differently for him and his family. Again, there was only little physical harm but the mental harm was much more damaging. His wife could never return to their home and he had to sell it in one of the worst housing market ever. Insurances can’t cover all things!

I have to admit that I had some hesitation in purchasing a guard dog. The home invasions helped to solidify that this was the protection and peace of mind that I was in need of. I have been a dog owner my whole life. The dogs I had were either homeless or I adopted them from the pound. My wife only had small dogs growing up and was uneasy to have a large attack dog in our home. I never owned a trained K9 and was also a little nervous about having a dog like that around my family. Sherry was also three months pregnant and we had heard horror stories about attack dogs.

I am the type of person that does a lot of research before making a decision. I interviewed a lot of your competition and found that your company wasn’t just trying to make a sale but wanted to find out our needs. Your staff got to know us and ask all the right questions. Your company was more concerned with placing the right dog in our home and with my family.

Even after the sale, I would call with questions from time-to-time and your staff would always help me. Your company is one of the most professional companies I have the pleasure of doing business with. You found us the right dog to fit our needs and with that, he become a big part of our family. Sherry and I “now” understand the difference between an ‘attack dog’ and a well-trained home protection K9 from your company. Wayne made us feel safe and gave us a lot of love. He was never aggressive to our friends or family members and was just a great dog.

Our little girl Katie was born on June 4, 2010 and has always looked at Wayne as her big brother. Her first word was Wayne.

click on the picture to see WAYNE's gallery

They have never been apart and he protected her better than I could have ever hoped for. Wayne passed away on April 7, 2013 at 1:47am. He played with Katie in the yard all day as Sherry and I did yard work. It was a great afternoon. I took Wayne out for his 11:00pm walk and noticed his stomach was three times its normal size. I call a emergency veterinarian and he said to bring him right over. He informed me that his stomach may have turned and he could be in the need of emergency surgery. When I got Wayne there, they stabilized him and thought he would be fine if they operated immediately. When they opened him up, 70% of him stomach muscle were already dead. The doctor stated that he would be unable to save Wayne. The final cause of death was cardiac arrest due to the fact that when they unturned his stomach, it released toxins into his blood stream and stopped his heart.

My brother passed away in 2004. The pain I feel today is no different then when I lost my brother. I can’t believe the loss of Wayne would affect me this way but I guess that’s what happens when you lose your best friend.

The reason for this letter is to thank you for bringing Wayne into our lives. I do have one request. Could you update your website under the file “Sold Dog Archive” then “Sold To The Public” and put a little information about Wayne. I noticed there was no information about Wayne and wanted people to know how wonderful he was. While Wayne had only a short life, it was a great life and filled with lots of love...

Wayne was a big part of our family and we were very proud to have him as a part of it. He will be missed…..

Thank you Kreative Kennels and your staff for everything

Mike & Nicolle,

Baylee has made a successful transition from Kreative Kennels to being an official Texan!!

She was exactly as you said and is exactly what we were looking for. She is so sweet and loving with the kids yet extremely attached to Jason and I already. She is always near or following one of us and eager for praise and direction which we love!

She had an unbelievable first night! No whining or whimpering which was a wonderful surprise!!!! And the best part of all - no accidents in the house - (extra thank you for that one!!)

We couldn't be happier with our purchase from Kreative and we look forward to many happy years and memories with our Baylee.

Thank you for providing our family with an amazing animal and placing us with the perfect pet.

With our heartfelt thanks and appreciation,
Jason & Karen G.

Mike, Nicolle and Greg:

Just an update on Hockey. He is about 90 pounds, looking beautiful and doing exceptionally well. After 8 months now, he is with me most days at my office. He has been outstanding in every way and continues to amaze me. I did leave him with Melonie one day and when I came home, she said Hockey has been carrying in the groceries for me. Sure enough, he had been carrying articles of groceries from the car to the kitchen, and then she stepped him up to whole bags! She told him to do it and he just did it! I had not thought of it. Since then, I realized I really need to remember not to treat him like an ordinary dog. Now I tell him to “carry” and he gets the paper and carries it into the house. Tell him “office” and he goes on into my office without me. tell him “car” and he goes and gets in and stays there until another command, tell him “potty” and he does his business, tell him again and he will try again and just look at me like “Dad, I really don’t need to but will try anyway!”

Sometimes I just call his name, and depending on where we are and what our surroundings, his response may be to wait until after I have his attention for a second command, or to come to me for a hug! He stays pretty much at my feet during the day at the office and around time to go home, reminds me its time, and turns into play mode! If I am slow to get out of bed in the morning, he is up on the bed with his big paw on my chest or his long snoze wedged under my arm until I get up. So much for needing an alarm clock! IF I leave him at home with Melonie, he will be at the door waiting for my return. The greeting when I get home is quite welcoming!

Mike, this is our third dog from Kreative for the family, and each time you have lead us absolutely in the right direction with a dog. Each time I have given you a laundry list (you may say ad nauseum) of traits, attributes, temperaments, etc. and each time you went to work to find me a perfect fit. I did not think I could ever replace Goody with a dog that could be as amazing. Well, Hockey has been quite a find. It would not be possible to love him more than Goody, but I don’t love him any less either! I have come to realize that the biggest limitation with Hockey is me. I need to remember that he absolutely loves to learn new things and does so with great ease.

One good story for you— On the flight home from San Francisco, the family in front of us had a 3 year old boy and a new born baby, so they had their hands plenty full. During the 5 hour flight, periodically I would sense that Hockey was enjoying a random dropped Cheerio from the 3 year old sitting in front of us. After the flight, as we were leaving, the father looked back and saw Hockey’s big black head and started pointing at him and belly laughing. After a bit, he caught his breath and said “this whole trip, my 3 year old has been telling me “Daddy, there is an animal under my seat” , to which he would repeatedly reply “No son, there is NO animal under your seat!! ”. That son may never have confidence in his father again!

Thanks again Mike. You and your team have again performed admirably.

Best regards,

Paul Norris

Hi Mike,

We apologize for the delay in writing. Selena, Moli and myself have been traveling for the past several months. I want to take time to commend you and praise the individual and business person you are.

We have had many conversations leading up to purchasing our dog, many after and always you have been a gentleman and straight with us. Your knowledge of the breed has helped educate us and allows us to properly care for our new family member. (Moli is no longer a dog but our princess)

Moli has been a joy, very even temperament, protective when need be and all around perfect fit for our family. She loves watching movies with the kids on the lounge, walks on the leash and rides in the car wonderfully.

Honestly there is not one complaint that can be brought up. You and your staff fulfilled every request we had, made the transition a breeze for new ownership and supplied us with all the details to care for Moil properly.

I attached some photos of Moli at the Waldorf Astoria and Crowne Plazza on one leg of our trip. As you can see she is vibrant, healthy spoiled rotten but mostly happy in her new home.

Thank you again sincerely for all of your assistance, fitting us with a perfect addition to our family and importantly for treating us fairly, honestly and being compassionate to our needs.

Very best regards

Joe, Selena and Moli Z

Mike,

Just thought you would like to know that we put a brevet on one of your puppies. Very nice dog and bites very well. :) My wife Lori was the handler. We have been training him for about a year. He has very strong nerves and plenty of drive. Congrats on producing a nice dog!!!

Mike,

Just wanted to drop you a note and say how happy we are with Zuca. She has fitted right in with us, she is a very big part of our family now. As you said she would, she has expanded her ZONE of protection around the home, and the once birds and squirrels that got a free ride in the front yard is no more. She is on guard whenever she is with one of us, and seems to have a 6th sense about people - some of them she just won't let near us, others she keeps an eye on.

Her health is excellent she is maintaining 90 to 92 lbs, her coat is shinny all the time and has endless energy for a walk or run anytime.

Hope you family is well, maybe someday we will get her a friend.

Thank you again,

Wade & Gigi Peebles, LOS GATOS, CA

Nicolle:

Well yesterday I took Aziz to a local trainer to see how he reacts when in protection mode. I can honestly say you guys have done a phenomenal job with his training. I have never been around a dog like him. He gets a long with our family members and to see him turn the switch to being our protector is just amazing. In fact, the trainer said, I don't know how much you paid for him but it wasn't enough. Just do me a favor, don't raise the price for our next shepherd.

I wanted to ask you if Aziz has any another training types for advancement in Schutzhund. For instance, like searching and etc. Watching Aziz, it looks like he has a lot of potential and I don't want to short change him. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thank you so much for this experience. Our last shepherd, was very close to me and I can say without any reservations I will have a similar bond with Aziz as well.

Hi Mike, Greg, Dave & Weun,

Clemens is doing really well, he is pretty well adjusted to the house and has learned how to open the door to my office. He has become very attached to Gabby and will listen to her when I am not around. Everyday I can see how much more protective he becomes, especially on walks. He has scared quite a few people with just his stare.

I am not sure who I asked this but I asked if you thought Clemens would be interested in the pool for a swim. Well here's the scoop on the pool, last Sunday the girls were playing in the pool. Laughing and splashing, well this made Clemens really worried especially when they would go under the water. He jumped in twice after Gabby, I know he was shocked the first time to discover that he was completely wet. But he would follow on the outside of the pool watching them to make sure they were ok. I am glad to know he's watching as well and that he won't take a dip just for fun.

The doggie introductions were completely stressful for me. Gus was interested in Clemens, but Molly did not like Him. I am sure it's because he sniffed for too long.

Clemens is the hands down the best all around dog. He is a gentleman at the office and is turning into a ladies man. With that being said, I worked late the last two Fridays, when our neighbors are the busiest. Their side of the building is shaded in the afternoon so I walk Clemens down there to stay cool. It has been very beneficial for our office. Less people are parking in our spaces and they generally stay in their cars until Clemens and I have passed. He stares at them with his serious face and watches them even after they are behind us. This is a nice touch, I know he naturally does that but it my book it's the icing.

I could go on, but you already know what an obedient dog he is.

Best regards,

Sarah F.

Love her to pieces.

Mike,

Just a little note to let you know how well Trey is doing. I am so pleased with him! It has been fun watching him learn about new things, from a black trash bag on the ground to walking by a semi truck. He doesn't run from it, just stretches to smell it with my encouragement.

I wanted to say a special thank you to everyone I met the day I came up. I loved being in my element and didn't want to leave! Please let Joe know how much I love Trey and we go out everyday. Also tell John I wear my KK sweatshirt everyday and thank him again for that.

I appreciated all the time and understanding from Nichole and for staying with getting my Rabies tag for Trey.

I continue to check your website and hope maybe to add to my clan with a female pup someday. I am also very excited to start next month with my friend k9 trainer down hear who works the police dogs and get Trey back to some work! I think he misses it because he wants to chase a lot of things. At least he not going after my poms when they play. I think my black & tan girl has a crush on him. She likes to give him kisses and paw at his nose.

Kreative Staff,

I searched all over the country for a breeder that could help pair me with a German Shepherd. I saw the Kreative Kennels website and liked what I saw, from the main staff training 'Schutzhund' skills to Nicolle socializing the dogs. I saw that you had a system based on philosophy, and I respected that. I called and spoke with Mike about the sort of dog I was looking for. I needed a specific set of traits to fit my lifestyle and family. Mike suggested that I check out Walter of Kreative.

A week later I picked Walter up from the airport. Walter (I spell it Walther, like the gun) was an instant hit. This is the most incredible dog I have ever met. Walther was calm, reliable, predictable, and exceptionally easy to train. He exhibited exactly the guarding traits I needed (alert, deter, posture) and he stepped up to guard my wife while I was on my first deployment. At 4am one morning while I was in Afghanistan, a man tried to bang in the door while my wife was home alone. Walther went into land-shark mode and bolted to the door with his unmistakable warning bark. The man decided he didn't want to meet the teeth inside the house -- he never bothered her again. Most of the time though, he was a lover, and his dominating physical characteristics meant that his very presence was an effective deterrent.

The thing that really stood out to me though, was that Walther was scary-smart. He understood whole phrase commands that no one ever taught him, like "Go find a rabbit!" as we walked through a field. He just intuitively understood what I needed and was motivated by a winning combination of pack-drive and prey-drive. I can't teach a dog to be "smart," I had to start with a good baseline, and that is what you get from a high-quality breeder/trainer.

Unfortunately, I outlived my dog this week. Even in his final hours, he was dutifully guarding the door to my bedroom. Walther was magnificent and I will never replace him, but I was so pleased with my Kreative dog (and friends of mine with Kreative dogs are so pleased) that I plan to get my next rock-star dog from Kreative.

Thank you guys. Seriously, and in the most heartfelt way I can express, you paired me with exactly the right dog for me at the time. Thank you.

Hi Nicolle,

The pups are doing great, and are exactly as you described!

Holly (call name "Jazz") has been going home with Danny and his family and he LOVES her... scary obsessed loves her. Already shows amazing home protection characteristics. Looks like she is going to double as his personal dog.

Orick (call name "Ru") goes home with my trainer Nate. So both pups spend the later part of the day around children. This pup will let us work him all day. Just incredible.

During the day at the kennel we have them on a schedule of obedience, bite building, and tracking (in wooded areas). Also, they play with the clients' dogs in the program and get thrown in the pup socialization class on the weekend.

We may use Orick to try to start a police K9 program in our city (Peekskill) if he continues to excel so may start him on Narc detection soon. Can go any direction with this boy really. Whatever his destiny we will be sure not to waste his talent. Exactly what we wanted in both.

I will be sure to send you some vids of them as they start to mature and give you progress reports.

I hope all is well there!

Warmly,

Mike

Hi Nicolle,

I just wanted to say thanks for the advice on Izak. I took him to the vet and she confirmend the same thing you said. He is now taking some anti-inflamitory's and is doing great.


Izak is doing awesome! Take a look at him in action during training, *see attached pic's* He is only 5 months old in the pictures and all ready on the puppy sleeve! He has an extremely high drive and we love it! We appreciate all your help and love our Kreative pup.

Hi Mike,

Kuma ( Hector) and I wish you a very Merry Christmas and may this New Year bring you as much happiness as you have brought both of us.

Thank you for bringing Kuma and I together. He is the best friend I have ever had! He has turned into quite a protector and a great watch dog. He never leaves my side.. I am so blessed .. Thank you!

Blessings to you and your family...
Forever Grateful,
Lisa St.John

Hi Mike,

Some news about Cobra (Greco of Kreative - Atrax x Fanta). He is too good. We donated him and working with Brewster PD to replace their deceased dog. Already an incredible tracker. Working on his narc work now. Never trained such a natural before. Great for PR (very friendly), nerves of steel, will work all day. K9-1 and the community of Brewster, NY thanks you for your expertise in producing amazing dogs!

Hi Nicolle,

Thank you for getting the AKC form signed. It has been sent in. Uzi just finished her 7th week of training today. She is still a handful but is catching on. We have had no second thoughts. Thought you might find interesting some of the descriptions that have been used for her so far: "athletic", "high octane", "alpha female" and "one dog in a thousand". That is in addition to the numerous people who comment on her beauty. The individual who is training her I guess has been doing this for about fifteen years. He said if we ever wanted to get rid of her (we don't) he would take her in a minute. He also said he needed to know more about your kennel so I gave him your website. His personal dog is a German Shepherd.

Another thing; Ginny, my wife, just had her first children's book published last week. If you are the least bit curious her website is sunflowergirlbooks.com.

Hi Mike,

I thought I would send you a couple of pics of the pup I purchased from you in January 2009. I know him as Rafe, you know him as Yadir. Sire: Vanesko Vom Salztalblick, Dam: Yessy Anrebri. Of course he is now 3 years old, healthy and happy still living here in Challis Idaho.

He has developed and grown into a very strong and compitant cow dog out in our field by using hand signals and eye contact to direct him where needed. He is able to freeze any given cow with his eyes. I'm working with him now building his vocabulary and protection skills. My husband Scott has been in Canada so it has been Rafe and I alone here at the house. He knows his boundaries around the place extremely well, and protects them without fail. He also prides himself on always keeping me in his sights and by my side.

He is so strong yet so loving all at the same time, We have been inseperable for the last three years and I love him very much, thank you for him. I know he would have made an outstanding police dog, but I am thankful every day that he is here with me. He is truly my very best friend.

Thank You,

Hi Nicolle,

The pups did make it to us safe. Anders has been staying with my family and has hit the floor running, doing great in puppy socialization class and with my two little boys, wife, little terrier, and cats. I am more than happy with his temperament. I have lots planned for him as far as training.

Danny can't stop raving about Greco. I will see them today and we'll waste no time getting the most out of that little ball of drive. We are trainers so we will throw them into the repetoir here while bringing them home to our families.

Thank you for the excellent job you have done on these pups. We are estatic!

Warmly,
Mike

Mike,

I just wanted to say thank-you once again for working with me to identify the perfect dog for me. It has been another year since I last emailed. Goody is continuing to be the most unbelievable dog I have ever had (and I have had several, including 3 other shepherds). I never had even considered buying a trained dog. Now I seriously doubt I will ever buy any dog but a trained dog. He is by my side at all times when I am close by him. I have never had a smarter dog in my life. It seems that he knows my thinking.
A truly amazing dog and family protector.

That said, he did precisely what you told me he would as he grew accustomed to our home. Once a worker came in the house unannounced. Sorry for the worker, I thought I was going to have to clean up the floor where he was standing. Goody was right at him and would not let him twitch a muscle until I came in. He is still the most sociable dog in the park and at our triathlons. Always seems relaxed unless something unusual is worth noting close to me. Kids love him as do other pets. He wakes me at the same time every day with a ball. If I don’t get up, he is on me licking my face until I get going. What a dog.

Lastly, I just bought an office condo that I can have him with me during the day as I wish. If it sounds overboard, I assure you Mr Goody is worth it!

Thanks again Mike, and I trust you and all your dogs are doing well.

PS. Jason’s “Domino” is doing great too. Two winners!

Hi…

I just wanted to thank you again for "Hector". I have changed his name to Kuma, hope you don't mind. He responds better to that name. He never leaves my side and BARKS! He actually scares people… The delivery people are frightened to come up to the gate. He charges and barks! THANK YOU!!!

He goes with me everywhere and now loves HIS TRUCK. He is very suspicious of strangers. Everyone thinks he is beautiful and wants to pet him but he will not allow anyone within 3 feet of us unless I say it is okay. He will stand in front of me and growl very low.

I was shocked however to find how many people are hesitant to approach me with him. I am so used to people just coming up and petting my dogs ... not with this guy!

He is the love of life! He started puppy class last week. He did great! He is very brave... He also loves the water! We go hiking often up by the river. He gets along so well with all my guys including my cat.

He is PERFECT!!!

I just can't thank you enough… I feel so safe with him in my life…

God Bless you!!

Please use my email and if there is anything else you need let me know.... I am so grateful!!

The trainer and Mike take the time to really match the right dog for each person. After speaking with Mike on the phone and explaining to him my needs and what I was looking for he spoke with the trainers and found me the PERFECT dog. He was not trying to just sell me a dog. He found me the right dog. This is rare in a greed driven World of Kennels who just sell dogs. They really care and take the time to get to know the people and have a wonderful understanding of their dogs.

They found my perfect match...

I highly recommend Kreative Kennels...

Thank you so much!

Mike,

Giula (aka Nika) is perfect. She got here with no problems, in fact got here three hours early. She has already become a member of the family. She even loves our cat. Well thanks for the puppy. We have attached a photo for you to use on your website, if you wish to.

Thanks again, John

P.S. the cats not very happy

Dear Mike and Nicolle,

I just wanted to send this letter saying "Thanks" for sending Majik to me. I remember calling and talking to Mike about the kind of dog I wanted. He thought that Majik was that dog if I really wanted: a dog that had high drives and would chase anything and everything that I threw. I told him that was correct.

Sticks, stones, balls, pipes and toys are just some of the things that she catches and brings back to me. She is a blast! Majik is exactly the dog I wanted. I found out that "you get what you pay for". She is very protective of our home, too. Thank you, Nicolle for the wonderful job you did with the shipping.

Hello!

Just wanted to thank you for our wonderful dog, Sammi. She is one of yours born Sept 28, 2009. Her mother and all the pups had names starting with the letter Z. We live in New Hampshire. Sammi currently weighs 69 pounds. She is smart as a whip, loves to play ball or frisbee, and is currently in an advanced obedience class and does awsome without even trying. My husband John just loves his dog (and so do I). The bottom photo was at a horse show in late spring so she is about 8 months old. The top one is of her tubing with John in August (so about 11 months old).

Thank you!

Dear Kreative Kennel Staff,

Our sheriff is very pleased with both K9 Cody and Endy. Both dogs have obtained their national narcotic certificatiion and have been working our streets for 3 weeks. In that short time both dogs have seized over 1000 pounds of marihuana and K9 Cody has a felony apprehension. I would like to extend a big thank you for making my job easier as a trainer. The foundation training which your staff implemented made it very easy to transition both dogs to actual street applications. Keep up your great work in bringing back to law enforcement the true working german shepherd breed.

Respectfully,

Javier Solis Jr.
Head K9 Trainer

Hi Kreative Kennels!

We adopted Shakira back in April and thought you might like an update. Shakira goes by the name Elsa Mae at home now. She is beautiful, smart and full of energy. She is even more than I had hoped for in a companion dog. She goes to obedience and agility training about three times a week and is turning out to be the superstar at the canine center. Everyone is amazed at her drive and energy and we can't wait to see what she will be like in another year when she can start going over the higher jumps (they only let her jump 8 inches so far because of her growth plates).

She LOVES tunnels, chutes, teeter-totters, and dog walks. She is a sweetheart and a great family dog. Her personality is wonderful. I can't say enough good things about her!!! People stop me in the streets to ask where I got her and I always tell them how they can find your website and to not worry about getting a puppy they haven't seen through your kennel.

Attached are a couple of pictures of our Elsa / your Shakira. If you ever breed her parents together again and get another long-hair puppy, let me know. I keep watching your website for one...

Thanks so much for raising such an impressive line of dogs.

Hey Mike,

Just a note to let you know that Lord is our personal protection ranch dog now. He has a 46 acre run of his own. He's beautiful, healthy and happy. Him and our female, guard the entire ranch. They are so smart. Lord knows I don't want him running-off the deer so he sits and watches intensely. If we get an alarm bark in the middle of the night, the minute we come out of the house with the rifle, him and our female both become quiet as a mouse and watch for our cue. It's so great to own intellegent, perceptive canines.

These dogs are so smart, they know sport from danger and react appropriately. They know when to be quiet and when to raise hell without any training. We have only allowed him to sire one litter since we've had him and most of those pups went to friends and family. My daughter received one of his black male pups and she has him so spoiled that you have to remind him at times he's still a dog. I feel so much better knowing she has him by her side since she lives far away. We get many compliments on Lord and I direct them to your website.

Thank you for such a wonderful addition to our family.
When we appreciate Lord, we appreciate Kreative Kennels.

Hi Mike,

Just wanted to let you know how happy we are with the little girl. I havent weighed her in a while but she is beautiful. Absolutely a pleasure to look at and watch move. Her teeth are perfect, just needed a little wiggling. She is a machine when it comes to playing, and extremely quick learner. Needless to say she has no bad behaviors and is sooooo sweet. We cant thank you enough. I will send pictures as soon as I can get a good one of her. I hope you can meet her some day. I think you would have been pleased to have kept her, but I am so thankful we have her. I'll keep you informed as she grows.

Thank you!

Kreative Kennels,

My name is Brian and my wife and I became the proud owners of Zaro, a.k.a Niko, from the Zoran/Zuca litter in July 2009. I'm not sure how I came across your website but I am sure glad I did. I had been searching for a GSD for months and didn't want to settle for a backyard breeder. I called and spoke to Mike for at least half an hour about what type of dog I was looking for and what I wanted to get out of the dog. He gave me a detailed description of Zaro and what he expected him to turn out like. From the night we picked him up at the airport, Zaro has been nothing less then impressive. He took to us and house training immediatly with only two accidents in the house to date. He is very easy to handle and takes to training very well.

Zaro has become increasingly more protective of the house and my wife and I. Even while playing at the park he does not let us out of his sight. Prior to finding Kreative Kennels, I had never heard of the raw food diet. Nicolle sent us a link and plenty of info on the diet and it's benefits. We have continued the raw food diet and I can honestly say I will never feed a dog commercial dog food again. We have received so many compliments on how good our dog looks and I think the raw food diet has alot to do with that. I must admit, I was a little uneasy about purchasing a dog from the other side of the country that I had not met in person and only saw pictures of online. After talking to Mike and Nicolle I knew that Kreative Kennels was no joke. Zaro has been all and more then what Mike described to me over the phone and has been an examlpe of Kreative's dedication to the German Shepherd breed. If your looking for a REAL german shepherd dog, Kreative Kennels is the place to go.

Hi Nicolle,

Akira arrived without any difficulties whatsoever, and appears in mint condition. We are so very pleased with her wit, charm, and vitality. She is people friendly and we want to keep her that way. She accepted Benefual puppy chow without hesitation. Last night she slept in her crate beside my bed and did not awake until 6:30 this am,at which time she wanted to go out and pee. She has whined a total of three times and was taken out without accident. To date we have played every puppy games imaginableMy granddaughter from Morgantown accompied me to Charlotte. My granddaughter and her fiance have entertained her since 9am this morning. It amazing how fast she is learning her name and simple comands. We love her dearly already! And you may use us as a reference resource in case there are others like myself who are leary of paying a high dollar figure for a shepherd site unseen. Thanks again! Delightfully Yours,
Margaret B

TO: The staff from Kreative Kennels


I am writing to give you an update report on Luger (from the Ajax / Yessi litter). He is now 6 months old and weighs in at an impressive 73lbs. Luger has a great prey drive and loves to conquer any challenge.

I have attached a video, taken today, of Luger playing with his Schutzhund obedience trainer and a soft sleeve. This is Luger's first time ever with a bite sleeve and it was all kept very playful with no stress on the dog to perform. The Trainer, Larry Nava of Tri-State K-9, is a decorated schutzhund trainer with 25 years of training dogs. The trainer pulled out a burlack sack and Luger instantly wanted to bite and play with it, then when the sleeve was brought out he quickly took a full bite and refused to let go.

Luger is a great Dog that is very quick to learn. He has a great personality and loves everyone, while still having an edge of dominance. He has all the characteristics of great working dog, and is a tribute to the Quality of animals being produced by the staff at Kreative Kennels. I will keep you up to date on his progress and will send more pics as he grows up and trains. Wish us luck on his obedience training and I'll keep you posted.

From the Tahoe Daily Tribune

Second K-9 unit joins South Lake Tahoe police

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. — The newest member of the South Lake Tahoe Police Department is a two-year-old from the Czech Republic. Argo, a German Shepherd, became the second police dog in the department on Feb. 15 when officers picked him up from Kreative Kennels in Turlock, Calif. The new police dog, with handler Mark Hounsell, joins the department's Belgian Malinois, Duke, and Officer Tony Broadfoot in the department's K-9 unit. Argo's arrival is the culmination of efforts by Hounsell, Broadfoot and Sgt. Josh Adler, who formed the South Lake Tahoe Police Canine Association two years ago to support the department's K-9 unit. The non-profit organization raised $4,500 through community donations and canine trials during the past two summers. The remaining $8,000 needed to pay for Argo, his training and equipment was paid for by criminal assets seized by police.

With the addition, South Lake Tahoe police will have access to a dog seven days a week, something officers feel will benefit South Shore residents. While selecting a police dog is not an exact science, when members of the canine association saw the dog in Turlock, they immediately agreed he was the right choice. Believe it or not, there is a lot of personality involved in it,” Broadfoot said. Hounsell has faced the business end of police dogs for the past 15 years as a decoy and said he's excited to move to the handler position. He's been brushing up on Argo's first language.

“I've been speaking more Czech than I have been English lately,” Hounsell said with a laugh. Although the German Shepherd has already received some training, he'll will still need to go through an additional 4 to 6 weeks of Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training certification with Hounsell before beginning work on the street. Argo will start off focused on searching and suspect apprehension, but will eventually be trained in narcotics, Adler said.

Hi Nicolle,

I hope you and your family are doing well! We've been doing training with Wyatt for Schutzhund and he is of course a natural. He still possesses all the bones or all the toys he wants and will keep Ruger away from them...just like when he was 8 weeks old. Here are some photos of our training session a couple of weeks ago. He is a great dog (Charis/Yaskia if you didn't remember the litter). It is so funny but his personality when I picked him at 4 1/2 weeks is the EXACT same as it is now. He is so funny, loves his people, loves to be with us, but also independent. Loves to play...LOVES his food (he was the puppy in the middle of the food dish when I visited)...

Anyhow, I just wanted to send you an update. He is 6 months old now. He weighs about 60 lbs. I still have him on the raw food/home made diet. He is smart and easy to train. We have a West German Show line breeder that is in our Schutzhund group and she said she wouldn't hesitate to breed any of her show line bitches to Wyatt. She really likes his angles.

Take Care,
Heather

Good Day Mike,

In just a few words, I wanted to let you know that I was delighted to visit your praiseworthy facilities. Thank you for the opportunity you have provided for me to visit the legacy of your hard labor. I also want to thank your son for the grand tour he gave me and for the thoughtfulness he exudes. As an overall experience, I was impressed with all of the dogs, including all of the puppies as they all looked absolutely beautiful and displayed a healthy amount of drive.

Most definitely, I was impressed with everything I have seen on your premises. By the same token, I grew up on the eastern European Block where I worked extensively with lots of different working dogs. I have a vast experience with German Shepherds; especially those from the Czech Republic . While working with these dogs Iove acquired a lot of knowledge, expertise and perspective that can only come from experience. As such, I grew up always learning new tricks of the trade and I grew close to these dogs. Without a doubt I grew to love these dogs; they are intelligent, amazing and beautiful. However, the fruits of your labor seem to have a static display of applied love and dedication in action towards one of my lifelong passions.

My main reason for this email is to congratulate you on all the accomplishments I¢ve seen while touring at your enterprises. I want you to know that I very much support the love people have for German Shepherds. Furthermore, the way I see it; all of your dedication, diligent work and sacrifices you invest right now, most definitely will reflect perhaps twenty or thirty years into the future. I know for a fact, there are not too many people involved and dedicated to the extent that Iove seen while I was visiting your facilities.

P.S. Being a foreigner in this country I have a good laugh seeing American people getting "turn on" on import dogs not realizing that they can get the same dogs or many times better (for less) from a local facility like yours.

Best regards

Vali Chelaru

The Folsom Police K9 Unit Welcomes K9 Ramon…

In March 2009, after the retirement of K9 Jerry, we welcomed K9 Ramon to the Folsom Police K9 Unit. Ramon is a three year old German Shepherd that came to us from Kreative Kennels in Turlock, CA. Ramon is an incredibly good natured dog, as well as being very social. Ramon has quickly become a part of our family.

Ramon took to training immediately. Ramon was patrol certified and hit the streets in April 2009. Ramon is trained in tracking, article/building/area searching and criminal apprehension. In September 2009 Ramon completed his training and certification for narcotics detection.

Esmeralda County uses K-9s

The Esmeralda County Sheriff's Office recently started a K-9 dog program, according to Sheriff Ken Elgan. Two shepherds were recently purchased from Kreative Kennels in Turlock, Calif. Both dogs are training in narcotics detection with the help of the Nye County Sheriff's Office.

According to Elgan, there has been a significant increase in drug and money trafficking on Highway 95; this is due to narcotics interdiction teams working the main interstates throughout the country. Traffickers are now accessing the secondary highways in the hope they will not be detected. Highway 95 is a major artery for travel north to south. Recently the Nye County Sheriff's Office, with the use of a narcotics K-9, seized more than $750,000 in the Beatty area. They have seized over $650,00 in the Tonopah area from motorists passing through. The kicker in all this is that money goes directly to the sheriff's office for use in narcotics enforcement. This means the sheriff can use the money to buy equipment such as vehicles, radars, ballistic vests for officers or any other equipment related to drug enforcement, saving the taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Nevada law also gives the sheriff the authority to give a portion of the money to the school district at the end of the fiscal year. The two dogs purchased, Vader and Nurmo, are doing outstanding work in a short period, according to Master Trainer Bill Stark of the Nye County Sheriff's Office. Elgan said Vader, an all-black Shepherd handled by Dep. Tony Phillips, has already recovered marijuana located in the center console of a vehicle. Nurmo, who is handled by Sgt. Scott Johnson, is ready to work as well. Elgan said, "We have high hopes for this program and will be aggressively working to remove narcotics and money derived through sales off our streets."

Mike,

Thanks again for seeing us yesterday. I wanted to make sure you guys found Aramis. I left him in the blue kennel with the lead on top. Didn't know what large kennel he belonged to, hopefully you guys found him.

Speaking of Aramis, depending on what happens with our unit Lieutenant, Aramis is who I am leaning toward. Of course, I keep going back and forth with Sarran.

My team was very impressed with your kennel and everyone working there. Very impressed. Hopefully Phil Divinigracia comes out today and takes a puppy off your hands!

Be in touch soon.

Thanks again,

Hey guys!

We finally made it to Colorado after a looooong road trip where Rumo behaved himself admirably. We actually sedated him the first two days, Andy was so nervous that we had killed him because about 20 minutes after he took his first pill he could hardly walk and was dragging his paws across the floor; we had to carry him to the car! Poor little guy was probably like "Guys, is this car the rest of my life now??" He's settling in quite nicely and is enjoying the snow and the freedom out here. He's VERY vocal and speaks up whenever he is frustrated, bored, or if we stay in bed too long. As you can see, he's darkened up a TON and is a spitting image of Charis. He's still a mellow guy and sharp as well. We're teaching him to sit by the door when we get back from a walk and lift up his paws so we can wipe them clean! How did his siblings turn out? Any standout pups? Keep me posted!

Hope everything is great,
Ali

Hi Mike,

Farkas Vom Saltzablick is about to be a dad! We absolutely love him so much. He is a great dog. I was just looking through your pics of him. He loves his toys so much. It is hilarious to watch him drop it into my husbands lap and sit there and stare at it so intense. I attached a picture of him.

Storm our female is due any day. We had our visit to the vet a week ago and she has at least 9 pups. I hope they will be as loving as our dogs. Just wanted to give you that update and to say Thank you again for the sweetest most playful dogs I have ever had. The second picture is of Storm. She is also black.

Mike,

I just wanted to check in and let you know how things were going with Master Goody. We have had him about 2.5 months now. He is precisely what you described him to be and is working out extremely well. Going to the park, kids come up to pet him and he welcomes it. Most strangers are no problem either- however there have been a few instances where rather suspicious folks came close to us and he immediately went into a growl to alert us. We agreed with him! He does appear to sense potential danger, or even just things that are very different or out of the ordinary. Once we say "its ok Goody" he is fine (though once he watched intently until the man was out of sight, which was good with me).

We are walking/running 3-5 miles per day sometimes more. He loves it as he is able to visit with several of the neighbor's dogs along the way. He has only shown aggression to dogs once he has had it shown to him first. Even with that, he is obedient and wanting to please me.

Once I get home, he does not want to leave sight of me. Wherever I am, I can count on being within sight of Goody (even in the shower, he opens the door just to be reassured I am in there).

He figures things out (he now opens the door and lets himself in) and enjoys waking me in the morning to two big paws on my chest and a big good morning lick signaling it is time for us to go for our walk.

FYI, he has added about 10 lbs (now 83 lbs) and looks beautiful. Folks have stopped their cars on the street just to take a better look at him. He really is a great dog and I am most grateful that we took your recommendation. I am having a blast with him. Best dog (and we have had 5) I have ever had!

Thought you would enjoy hearing about him. Next time I get some pictures, I will forward a few your way!

Hi Nicole,

I just thought I would let you know that Echo is doing great! He absolutely loves the cold and snow we have up here in Chicago and just went to his first puppy class yesterday. He is already very good with basic commands (sit, stay, down, etc.) and can even heal on a lead already!

I attached some recent pics i took of him yesterday.

Dear Mike And Nicolle,

Just wanted to get back to you and thank you again for this wonderful puppy. Farah is amazingly smart and absolutely loving with the sweetest disposition I could have ever wanted. Her pedigree was impressive enough but the reality of this beautiful pup far surpasses any expectations I had.
Much of the credit for her outstanding personality, I know is due to her care and the attention you must have showered on her from the beginning. She arrived in pristine condition from California and has been a joy every moment since.
I also wanted to thank you for all your kindness and courtesy. You made working through this purchase, without actually being able to visit, a very easy process.
Thank you both again for this lovely pup and the graciousness you extended.

* I would certainly recommend anyone looking for a GSD to check out Kreative Kennels. I did and was totally blown away with my pup.


With sincere thanks
Linda Skidmore
