Testimonial 2

Dear Larry:
      I would like to take this opportunity to thank you on behalf of my wife and myself for the kind referral to Debbie to adopt Boo. As you recall, I called last week looking for a Doberman to try and take the place of Molly, our eight year old dobe who we had to have euthanized when her liver failure advanced rapidly a week prior. Our home has since experienced a void, the likes of which we have never experienced. It was obvious we needed another Doberman to help us in the healing process.
      Debbie is one of the most wonderful people we have ever met (by telephone), and it would appear that a match has ben made between us and their nine month old red male, Boo....short for Budah I understand. We will be driving down from north/west Illinois on Wednesday, the 25th and meeting him and returning with our new best friend on Thursday, the 26th. Debbie has sent a series of pictures via e-mail and it was love at first sight. We can not wait to get the journey under way
      Thanks again, and our best of luck with your dogs, breeding, training and working with them. I have absolutely enjoyed your web site and your dogs appear to be super dobes to be very proud of. It has been my pleasure to have met and visited with you on the telephone and hope to meet you one day soon.

With kind regards

Larry and Linda,

Thanks so much for letting Chika join our family. When we seen her sitting there by Suzan in her van it was love at first sight. We really appreciate the love and care you have shown for Chika from when she was born and even now that she's come to live with us. Thanks so much for answering all the questions we have had along the way. We researched different breeders and you were definitely what we were looking for. We are so glad we got to meet Larry, Deacon and Schatzi at the Nationals. We would highly recommend you to anyone.
Thanks again,
Jared, Amy, Andres, Nadia, and of course Chika

Linda and Larry,

We definitely made the right decision in getting our puppy from your kennel Czar is a fantastic dog! You did a great job working with the puppies before they went to their new homes. Czar is confident, friendly puppy. He goes everywhere with us – he does good in the car and loves to go on the boat. He is very smart and is learning his obedience commands quickly. He’s a very
well adjusted dog and a great family pet. We’ll definitely be contacting you when we’re ready for our next puppy (next year?).
He has an extremely keen sense of smell. We’re considering some formalized advanced training for him.

Moxie is doing great. We actually decided not to breed her, so we just had her fixed about 2 weeks ago. I had a dog die once because we didn't breed her or get her fixed and the vet said they develop some type of disease because of that, so I decided to get her fixed. I am kind of sad that she won't have puppies because she is so great, but we just don't have the time to properly care for a litter right now and I didn't want to be a irresponsible breeder.

Moxie is a happy dog, but still VERY high drive and determined. Lately she has decided to shred any money she can find. She got Nathan's wallet and shredded all of his money and dug through my mom's purse and shredded her money. It is so weird, she doesn't touch anything else, just the money. Lucky for me, I never have any cash!!

She is a great dog and does lots of funny things. We call her the babysitter because, if one of my nephews has something he shouldn't, she takes it from him. Also, she tells on my dog Caesar if he is doing something wrong. For example, the other day he got into the food sack, so she came running into the bedroom and barked at me until I went to see what was going on. Additionally, one night Caesar got sick to his stomach and was throwing up and having diarhea under our bed. Because he is so small, it didn't wake me up. So, Moxie came to me and licked my face until I woke up. She is always checking on him if he coughs or anything. I can't wait to see how she will be with our babies! All the children in the neighborhood love her and run out to pet her when we go on walks. She really is very good with children and other dogs too.

I can't thank you enough for providing us with such a great dobie. She is beautiful, smart, sweet, protective, loyal...all the things a good dobie should be! We still haven't given up on having a male dobie too, so we may be calling you again some day!

-Thank you Linda & Larry You two are Gods gift to the Doberman breed

I flew down from Boston to get my Lenox on Friday. It was a very long flight When I seen Linda sitting there with Lenox on her lap I got weak in the knees. When I seen his face my heart filled with joy. His coat was glossy like he had just been painted, his weight was good and I could immediately tell that they took very good care of him.
I emailed and called them so much during this whole process, that I thought they would get sick of me. They answered all my questions every time. They treated me with patience & respect. Larry is The Man He’s a really cool guy to talk to. They’re both pleasant & down to earth

I’m glad I got my dog from L.J.Kye Kennel. Definitely “Quality Breeders” Definitely worth the wait I look forward to doing it all over again

Dobermans have been my favourite breed since I was a very little girl and a big red male by the name of "Sarge" was my constant companion. I went everywhere and did everything with that dog - he was well and truly my best friend. When he passed it became my life's ambition to be owned by another dobe and I have spent the last three or four years searching for the perfect breeder. I knew without a doubt that I had found that breeder when I came across Linda and Larry's website.

The time and effort, not to mention the meticulous health testing, Larry and Linda put into the puppies really shows. My "Naavi" is incredibly well socialized, has absolutely wonderful manners, handles new situations and people with aplomb, is unbelievably intelligent, and shows some amazing drive for a puppy her age. There is not a moment of hesitation when dealing with new situations and she has had no problem with pet stores, puppy classes, dogs on the street, children, new adults, car rides, etc. Naavi even popped a balloon while she was playing with it and didn't flinch! She learns incredibly quickly and is already beginning to figure out her recall, down, sit, heel, and go to heel commands.

I am very, very glad that I came across their website and even more so that they decided to send one of their babies home with me. It has only been a few short weeks but I cannot imagine a life without Naavi in it and I am ridiculously excited for all of the things that we are going to accomplish. She is a beautiful, well put together, steady, brave, intelligent, clever, and altogether delightful addition to the family and it has been my honour and pleasure to deal with this wonderful family and their amazing dogs.
