| Teresa Little walking her four NAIDs at one time! | |
| “My
husband found out that two people who work in his corporation have NAIDs.
One of the guys got his dog from the pound. He was very nervous about what
to expect from this relatively unknown breed. After getting a good
recommendation from a coworker, who currently owns a NAID, he took the dog
home. He and his family are completely in love with this dog. He uses it
for a hunting dog. He told my husband that this is the first hunting dog
he has ever owned that has been allowed in the house. He said the dog can
look so furious when hunting, then come in the house and let his little
kids climb all over it. This is hard to believe but he claims that this
dog learned a trick from watching it on TV with he and his wife. The dog
already knew basic commands and after watching this trick just once on TV,
the dog got the first time the man tried it. I don't know about
that.....your the expert on this breed. This guy told Brett (my husband)
that he will never own a smarter more loyal animal than a NAID. This
information just further reiterated how happy we are with our final
decision to get one of your puppies. Thanks, Carla G.” |

have a 6 year old golden retriever named Buddy, a very sweet dog. About a
year ago, we lost our other dog to cancer. It was a very hard time for us
all. My husband and I have been talking about getting another dog. We
have two children (Cailee 9 and Cameron 6). The lady I met said that this
breed is very good with kids.” |

| “Hello
Mrs. Markel! I only recently found out about NAIDs and I'm already in love with
them! I've been looking up their history everywhere I possibly can, could
probably write a term paper over them! Any who. My great grandmother was a
full blood Cherokee and though I never met her as she had passed on long
before I came into the world I've always had a strong sense of Native
American Pride and an enthusiasm for learning all that I can about my
heritage and People. I've been wanting a wolf hybrid for years now, since I was 3 actually,
but have never had the right accommodations for them, sadly. Though I used
to raise them for a naturalist in my hometown for years, it wasn't the
same as having my own for a companion. Then I found the NAID. I haven't heard much about the dogs before, only bits and pieces
but after researching them I see how special they were to my ancestors.
I've always felt that modern dog breeds were slightly inferior, I just
didn't know what to, and now I do, for the NAID is a wonder upon itself. a
long living large dog, sheds once a year, hypoallergenic, super
intelligent, family oriented, hunters, workers, spiritual companions, what
more could anyone ask for?! Compared to other breeds, how would you say the NAIDs are with
training? Like...quickness and ease of learning. As you've bred dogs for
several years your opinion holds more weight than a mere book. With their
high intelligence I would suspect it would be very quickly but as I've
never met a NAID I wouldn't quite know. I see that Hakata We was your first foundation female. I'm
curious as to how old she is. Her off spring sound exactly like what I'm
looking for in a companion but I wouldn't want to cause her stress if
she's very old. Do you think she'll breed next season or in the one
right after the next one? She has a beautiful spirit by the way, but you
already knew that. :) Thank you very much for your time. And many thanks for your effort in
bringing the breed back from darkness, they deserve it. Emily” |

“Dear Karen and Darlene, Northern |
|
| “Karen, Thanks so much for letting us come and see your dogs. They are wonderful animals, and I can see that you really love them. We really appreciated you opening your home to us and giving us a chance to see why they are such ideal pets. You do a fantastic job with them, and it is easy to see that they care very much for you, too!! Jacinta and Brendon” |

| “Hi
Karen, Just wanted to drop a line to say hello and thank you so very much for
spending time with Ilene and I last weekend. Your resort was all I thought
it would be and more. Your animals are truly remarkable. You have a class
A facility. Just being in your kennels felt like home. I'm
glad we waited to meet with you and learn more about your breed. Im also
glad ole Whitney took somewhat of a liking to me. Sincerely, Michael and Ilene” |

“Dear
Karen, …Thought
I'd email you, as Guffinger also had an incident similar to the
leptospirosis that Chief had. Guff was at the kennel for a week - it's
a wonderful kennel and training facility here in Guffinger
continued being tired, and didn't eat well when he got home, lost even
more weight, had a lot of runny stools, then hardly any stools at all.
His coat was thin, but being July in He
had been in a pond the week before boarding, playing with his trainer's lab, so
when I read the water connection, I thought I'd print the article and give
it to my vet and the kennel, in case something like this comes up again with
Guff or any other dog. There is no water play area at the kennel, but
many "dog friendly" ponds, lakes and streams in …Take
care, and God's blessings, Susan Alessandro” |

“Hi, I have a 6 month old male Belgian Shepherd. (Tervuren) We need another dog for him. He will be
neutered this month (I am not a breeder, just a newly retired woman
who always wanted big dogs but felt strongly, you must be home with them)
I saw a puppy from MI that was sent to Sacramento at the dog park run I
visit daily with my puppy, Donner. I fell in love with the
Native American Indian Dog, ( |

| “Hi Karen: Well here we are sitting in a motel in Indy. Had a rainy trip down and did nothing but talk about your magnificent animals all the way down here. Karen thank you so much for your hospitality and for sharing a bit of your delightful NAID kingdom with us. Your dogs are truly magnificent and if you would have turned your back Susan would have snatched up all those adorable puppies in a New York minute! We hope to see you again soon. Thanks again. Doug” |

| "Dear Karen, Thank you so much for everything this weekend! Alex and I had a wonderful time. It was so terrific to meet you and your family. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and for your kind hospitality. Your home is beautiful, the food was delicious, and the dogs were truly amazing! We can't stop thinking about the dogs and miss them already! Not only are they beautiful and intelligent, but regal as well. "Majestic" is indeed a perfect word to describe them. I was struck by the depth and wisdom in their eyes - I have never witnessed that in a dog before. Ukiahya, Paahuma, and Pasasa, in particular, stole my heart! They are such sweethearts! I was so sad to say goodbye to them. The puppies were absolutely adorable! We wish we could have taken one home, but we want to be good puppy parents, and get our yard and schedules ready first. We feel really happy about our decision to take two instead of one, so they can have a constant companion and never be lonely. It's going to be hard to wait for our puppies, but we will do our best! Until then, we'll just have to keep visiting your website, and looking at the pictures." |

|
| "Dear
Karen, We want to thank you for all your efforts allowing us to get to know each of your Native American Indian Dogs better. As we had driven to Majestic View Kennels early that afternoon, we were anxious to meet the animals to really determine if we would be able to provide them with a lifestyle as comfortable as the one you give them. During our visit, it was clear to us that these dogs, their essence and their uncanny character was what we sought after. We can't wait to receive a new pup shortly! The interaction we received from all of the NAID family left us with enormous smiles and heartfelt joy to know that such a breed is available to accompany us in our lives. Each dog had it's own trait from a loyal and exciting playfulness to an observant silence. These animals are truly a gift! Chris and Katie" |
|
| "Hi Karen,
...I wanted to thank you again for letting us stay with you and to meet all your wonderful dogs. I've been checking your website and now we are all so excited. I've been telling everyone about how we loved the dogs and I've shown everyone the pictures of the "happy couples." We can hardly wait for our pup!! Angela" |

"Dear
Karen, Thank you for letting our family visit your wonderful dogs and ride your horses. We have worn our new sweatshirts and told all of our friends and family about our “puppy on order!!” We can tell that you care about those dogs like crazy…….and we are anxious to welcome a new member to our family!

"Dear Karen, On behalf of our
visit from Pennsylvania we wish to give you our thanks for making our stay
a comfortable and memorable one. I speak for all of
us when I say that the greeting we received upon our arrival was unusual
and indeed pleasurable. None
of us have ever experienced such a melodious chorus of welcome. You have such a beautiful place and Ruth and I enjoyed your
company and the companionship of all your wonderful dogs. We are looking forward to a time in the near future when we
can spend a weekend away at your sanctuary and with those amazing dogs of
yours. Sincerely, David and Ruth" |

| "Your dogs are beautiful, have you thought about adding an Akita in to get more of a wolf look? I've wanted to check into Native American dogs for years but didn't know anyone was still breeding them. But now I breed Akitas and can't get one LOL. Looks like you guys have done excellent work. They are very true to all of the pictures I've seen, I'm Comanche, Cherokee, Black foot and Creek and my great grandmother used to have paintings of the majestic animals around her house. Just wanted to say good job." ~Angel | |
| "Hello Karen, Just a note to let you know that I saw your bumper sticker on a vehicle in New Jersey, where I am taking one of my husky dogs to obedience training. I also saw the Native American Indian dog pup. He is 5 months old and just a sweet looking dog. Also wanted to let you know you have beautiful ones too. Washe and Hakata We and Whitney are just classy looking animals. You are so lucky to be able to have such a fine looking group. I'll bet each one has their own distinct personality, but you know what---it makes all of the time and work that you put into your animals worthwhile. You are so fortunate--keep up the good work--it shows. Sincerely, Anne" |

"Dear Karen, You’ll never know how much they make my heart sing,
and my spirit soar!!! I was telling
Linda on the way home, that my spirits are lifted, and my heart launched, just
by the love and affection and those wonderful kisses from the dogs. They truly are very special, special animals. Thanks Again!! With much affection and Love. Cheryl" |
