Nice post and excellent advice, vk.

VK, very nice post and advice!

  

OK....I didn't want to do this because I absolutely do not want to be a part of the forum as I hate putting myself "out there" for criticism, BUT I feel I have too because it is the right thing to do.
Breeders have a tendency to be very cut throat about other breeders and my experience with Anthony from "von wyzal" was a very good one, so I am sticking up for him. I purchased a dog from him for stud, he provided me with all of the info on the dog and even a sperm count (which most do not do). I wired him money PRIOR to receiving a contract (dumb I know) and he sent me the dog with all papers. The dog did not work out for me. HE IMMEDIATELY REPLACED THE DOG WITH NO HASSLE! He sent me a BETTER dog *(a VA son!!!!) at no additional cost! Who would do that???!!!! I am sure very few of you! The replacement dog is amazing! AND he did not have to do any of that because there was NO SIGNED CONTRACT!!!! Anthony is a good caring person that tries to place the right dog with the right family, he was very careful with who he sent me because he knew I had small children, he cared. I have also spent hours on the phone with him and he gives me advice and helps me with questions I have even with dogs I purchased elsewhere. I will be looking for a female soon and I will buy her from him. Any issues about all this nonsense about hips and proof ect is wrong and GREATLY outweighed by the fact that I trust Anthony COMPLETELY.

And one more thing...if his wording seems "off" it is not because he is trying to lie, but it is because english is his second language.

Are you his neighbor or family,because i know people who bought dogs from him and they are very unhappy with them and he refused to replace them.

No I am of no relation, I live in Pennsylvania and he lives on oklahoma. And he did not request that I post this. I did it because it is the right thing to do. And I do not believe that he would not replace the dogs I do not believe you and who knows? you may have a personal issue with him that we do not know about (or maybe we do). Do you old shatterhand?. And, he even helped pay for shipping as it was very expensive to ship adult males. Another thing that most breeders do not do!

I don't know Anthony nor i did any deal with him,this has nothing to do with personal issues,is a principle and breeding ethics,Beside I don't deal with backyard breeders,but I know couple people who did bought dogs from him and I am telling you what they told me.To me breeder who lies about hips and elbows .fabricates papers is a breeder i would never buy a dog from.There is no record of his dogs having hips,elbows done by AKC nor SV,so why he lies about it .Because many people like yourself never check those papers and will buy from him. Now if you are happy with the dog you bought from him you can buy 10 more dogs from him,this is not my concern,and I wish you the best,There were big time breeders who were suspended from few clubs and even from AKC by fabricating false informations and papers,so my point is buyers should stay away from breeders like him,and again this is only my opinion and you are entitle to yours.

completely understandable and I do not wish to make enemies with anyone but I do not want anybody's name bashed that I know for a fact was completely fair and accommodating to me in our business dealings. Now you are accusing him of falsifying paperwork. do you have any proof of that? The male I got is on the OFA website and is health screened.

Shatterhand, the dog leslieann bought from Wyzal is the dog I wanted to buy. He has OFA hips and elbows and is DM normal as is his entire litter sired by Quenn. She feels as if she was treated fairly by Wyzal, so why not just let it go at that? It does look as if Wyzal imports and brokers dogs from Germany, but since when it that a big deal in this breed? It's commonplace for many in the US to buy dogs from Germany, the Czech Republic, etc and resell them in the US. I think you do it too. don't you?

Leslieann is new to the breed, she is learning and now knows that she should ask for proof of hip and elbow clearances and any other pertinent health tests when she buys her next dog. I believe most of the adult dogs Wyzal sells have been xayed in Germany and cleared by the SV and they do not carry his kennel name.

Blitzen for your record yes i do import dogs only and exclusively from Germany,and only for clients of mine,and only show lines.Von Wyzal imports dogs from Serbia ,Hungary ,not from Germany,I don't think anyone in Germany would deal with someone like him.We all know how thinks goes in those Countries like Serbia,Hungary,Bulgaria and few other countries,money can buy you everything,(fake titles,hips,elbows,rating,health clearances).Every than and now we hear that this judge was suspended,this dog was revoke the title,or hips,elbows rating,they are the facts and goes on and on.
