A Sonia Berg refresher, in her own words, from this thread, http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/german_shepherd_dog/forum.read?mnr=50383&pagen=1:

Is this true about Alpine-K9 in AZ?

I am the purchaser of the black puppy, which is named Lupo and means wolf in Italian.    It's kind of sad, being he looks like a dwarf. My name is Eva Sonia Berg and it is my real name, unlike Mr. Zdenek Jan Blabla who is not named Hans, but simply chooses to call himself that. I am not poor or a criminal, but I expect to get what I pay for, like any other consumer. And thank you Blabla, for confirnimg that you are a commercial breeder because then you must be registered with the Department of Agriculture.

I am also Slovak, my parents being from Czechoslovakia. And yes, Blabla is a Czech and he is very rude to me. The only phone contact I had with him was him cutting me off, saying in a rude tone, he was training dogs and had no time to talk to me. I left a voicemail on their business number after having been up several nights with a very sick puppy who had yellow diarrhea every hour or so. The stench was awful. The puppy also arrived with a heavy yellow/green discharge from his eyes. He was 10 weeks old and weighed 9.1 pounds.

The puppy weighed 15 pounds in June, not July as Blabla has stated. The puppy weighed 22 pounds at age 17 weeks on July 13 at the vet's office.

The AKC doesn't just suspend someone for 10 years for trivial reasons. Blabla never divulged this information when I called to purchase the dog. He and Debra Elinger assured me the pup was AKC registered.

I called Alpine K9 on a Sunday afternoon a couple of weeks after leaving the voicemail which they never returned my call...around 4:30pm Arizona time, and Erlinger answered the phone. Debra Erlinger thought she had placed me on hold, but didn't realize that I could hear everything she was saying. I heard her say to Blabla, "It's that Sonia Berg, do you want to talk to that %$&#*?' I heard Blabla say, no...hang up. I never phoned them again.

I sent Alpine K9 24 emails and I have every one of them because I plan to use them in court.

I am very angry for being lied to and left with a sickly dog who will never be a normal German Shepherd. I will NOT return the dog because he is evidence....period.

Blabla claimed there was a flood in The Czech Republic which destroyed his dogs' registration papers; here he now states it was a flood in a building 80 miles away.

Blabal refused to send me any photos of the puppy and claimed he couldn't because his wife was in the hospital. He is not married.

I have been keeping the dog quarantined because of the hookworm, but I will post a photo of the dog standing next to another to demonstrate the size. Believe me, I take him out and look at him and play with him with the ball and try to see and hope that he has grown, but the truth is, he is way too small for his age. Either he is not a purebred German Shepherd or he is a dwarf. He is not normal. He was at the vet last week and the whole office staff came in to look at him. The vet commented how he is so small, but already getting his permanent teeth. He was still shedding hookworm eggs.

To you, Blabla, with all of the knowedge you proclaim to have about dogs, it's shocking to hear that you don't know that hookworms are not shed in the feces, only the eggs are, and they are micrscopic, you can't see them. You have to do a fecal test, which the pup has had 3 times and will also be having a fecal culture to determine why he still suffers loose stool even after repeated wormings now. The worms attach themselves to the dog's small intestines and feed off its blood, therfore that's the reason for the pup's anemia. Hookworms can kill a puppy and it nearly did kill this one. Had he not been treated, he would have had to have

You can't fix the overbite, poor dog would need some sort of MEGA Doggie braces!
Chrissy had to get teeth removed to stop the lower canines from digging into the top jaw.

Once she gets his elbows xrayed tomorrow and makes sure those are good, she can move forward with the FHO, so can give us a better idea of cost. It would be nice for her if people chipped in and were able to put a substantial dent in the total amount to help her out. She seems like a good person who really got bent over...

Suspended by AKC?

by Red Sable on 03 January 2012 - 20:01

OK, read the link and I see I was in the anti-Sonia camp.

I hope I was right in that regard.

Eva,

So sorry ot hear about your puppy also. Hopefully everything will work out with your pup, thanks for sharing your experience with Alpine K9 with all of us. It's a shame they are still allowed to be in business. Hopefully some day there will be strict regulations and inspections done at some of these places.

by beetree on 03 January 2012 - 20:01

Actually RedS, you were about the only one who did think the dog was small.....

It was/is easy to think Sonia was/is a nutcase, because the only history "we" had then were the romantic stories Hans told of his struggles making it to America and realizing his dreams. Now, things start to get a bit murky, with experiences like Rooka's and Chrissy's to give a person pause, to reconsider a former good opinion.

FrankM, Eva is not on this thread... I copied and pasted her post from an earlier thread.......

AKC doesn't suspend rights unless he continued to fail on his inspections. I have never heard of them coming out and suspending a breeder of their rights unless they didn't try to work with them.

In AlpineK-9's deal it wasn't a flood that cause his loss of right, but lack of effort to keep up his records. Even back then he was screwing people. Until just recently he had to have someone else register his litters and its only now that he has gained his rights back.
Maybe some day ole Hans will kennel-less. If it wasn't for Jinopo, Hans wouldn't have a pot to piss in

Hmmm, ya Bee, and I still think that when I look at that pup.

Horrible how rude some were to the OP for asking about a breeder. I am shocked at that. Wow. Isn't that what we tell people to do? Research?

Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

by destiny4u on 03 January 2012 - 21:01

does anyone know where eva is now?was just wondering if she and the dog were ok.

by GSDPACK on 03 January 2012 - 21:01

Eva purchased another dog from another breeder she also accused of some crap. I believe one more breeder came out and admited she did the same thing to her.

So I would not be that fast to call her a victim yet!
