“Karen,
My wife, Ruth, and I have one of the
Siberian Indian Dog male pups from the March 8th litter with Fantastic
Fred and BooBerry. We named him Dewey and he is awesome. Attached are
pictures from Easter
when we first met him and from the 4th of July. Dewey has a sweet
personality and everybody loves him. He is friendly and likes to meet new
people and other dogs. He's great with kids. He does not bark but he
does talk to us and other dogs when he is playing with them. He kind of
sounds like the NAID, Sakata Jerry, when he said
"I love you". We don't know what he is saying but it's
funny. It makes me think of Astro from the Jetsons. Dewey is very
confident and has a big dog attitude with no fear but never
aggressive. Loud noises do not scare him. He passed the PetsMart puppy
training and is house broken. Dewey is very intelligent, listens well
and his attention/concentration is improving as he gets older. He
is growing from a cute puppy into a handsome dog and now weighs
40 pounds at 4 months old. His fur is soft and low maintenance with no
shedding. We gave him 1 bath but found that a quick rinse with plain water
is best. He air dries fluffy. I like to give him a big hug and get my face
in his fur. He smells good and I don't worry about my asthma. He is
a good swimmer and likes to play in the water but he does not like to get
splashed on purpose even if he is already soaked. Splashing during play is
fine. What a character. I skate with him often and go 3 miles or more
each time at a good pace. You would think that he would be tired but
then he runs laps in the backyard when we get home. He makes me laugh
every day. We love him very much.
I'm allergic to dogs and have asthma. My first
asthma attack that was triggered by a dog happened when I was 6 months
old. It is a life threatening condition and I have had several visits
to the ER. We had an outside only hunting dog when I was growing up and
didn't get to enjoy his personality as much as if he could come inside.
I've met a lot of dogs and have been allergic to all of them except for
yours. Dewey sleeps by me every night and I've never had a problem. It
really means a lot to be able to enjoy him. Thank you for your work in
breeding dogs that are truly non allergenic and allowing us to have Dewey
in our home.

“Karen,
I
wanted to send you an update on the two dogs we got from you.
Dewey a Siberian Indian Dog, (Fantastic Fred & Boo Berry born
3-7-07
) is 9 months old and weighs about 60-65 pounds. He is very
confident and friendly. He swam out to a canoe to say hi to some
people he had not met before then swam back. Dewey is a pure athlete . He
can run for miles and not get tired. You should see him in the woods. He
loves to go hiking where he can run, jump logs and explore. He runs back
at full speed when you call him. His eyes are beautiful. They are light
brown with a dark brown ring around the outside.
Kona, a NAID, (Petaga & Odawa born
6-10-07
) is now 6 months old today and weighs well over 80 pounds. "Koney"
is a lover just like his daddy. He is very calm and easy to train. Koney
is growing so fast. His fur got a lot darker and looks more like
Dewey. It's easy to tell them apart by their faces. Dewey has the middle
finger and Kona has the heart shape. Kona is so much larger now. His feet
are twice as big and his body is much thicker. Kona is not as outgoing as
Dewey. He will give you a big "WOOF" if he does not know you and
you're in his backyard. He will give you lots of kisses once he gets to
know you.
These
guys are awesome. They are great with small children, cats and other
dogs. The Dew and Koney Dog are very sweet. The only thing to worry about
is a fierce face licking. We had a small kid stop by during Halloween and
the dogs almost licked off all of his make up. They listen really well and
walk off leash in the woods. Dewey likes to explore but he comes back when
called. Kona likes to stay near me on the trail. They love the water. I
will cross the stream on logs that have fallen and the dogs will
swim across often playing in the water with each other.
The pictures with their life jackets on are from Labor Day back when
Dewey was still bigger then Kona. They did great on the canoe
trip and we did not flip over. Koney curled up on Ruth's lap that night by
the campfire. The newer pictures are from around Thanksgiving. The one on
Thanksgiving morning is in the stream with Dewey looking at the ducks.
Both
dogs get a lot of attention and we have told everyone to check out your
website. Anyone that is
allergic to dogs but always wanted one should contact you.
Dewey has really thick fur. I
call him my wooly dog. Kona is
silky. Neither dog sheds
except for their puppy fur and I expect their winter coats in the spring.
I brush out their burs when we get back from hiking.
I probably brush out more of my own hair then I ever do from both
dogs combined. I do not have
any problems with my allergies or asthema. I also like how quiet they are.
They do not bark often and when they do it is for a reason. These guys
have given us so much happiness. Thank you for raising the best dogs.
Kevin & Ruth Jonatzke”

“Karen,
Hope all is well at Majestic View. We are doing
great. The dogs we got from you are awesome. They are very well behaved
and go everywhere with us. I take them to work with me everyday. Dewey
(Siberian Indian Dog) is super sweet and extremely outgoing. He will
go up to anyone to say hi. Kona (NAID) is more reserved until he gets to
know you. He is just as sweet and gentle as Dewey just a little bit more
shy. Koney is our cuddle dog and jumps in bed with us in the morning.
We got everyone to pose today; Ruth is holding Bailey
the cat, Twink the Cockatiel is on my shoulder, Dewey and Kona on each
side of us. I like the pictures in the jeep. Koney's head is closer then
it appears. You can see how much bigger Kona is compared to Dewey and he is
not small at 70 pounds. Kona was 100 pounds at 10 months old when the vet
weighed him on neutering day. He is 18 months old now. I have
not weighed him recently but he looks like he weighs at least 120 pounds.
Sweet Dew is fearless. He is a pretty good
match for Koney. Dewey often starts the wrestling and will get the best of
Kona until he gets him by the collar. In the end Kona just over powers him
and sits on him. Poor little Dew. Dewey has non stop energy. We can
hike for 10 to 20 miles or go for a fast 5 to 10 mile skate
and he still runs around when we get home. Kona can run just as fast
he might even be a little faster but does not even come close to Dewey's
endurance. Kona relaxes when we get home. Dewey is confident, nimble,
has great balance, and is a bit of a show off. Dew is cool. He walks
across logs over creeks or ditches and makes it look smooth and
graceful. Kona is strong and looks out for us. He sleeps between the door
and where we sleep. You feel more secure with Koney around. They are
very quiet unless there is a reason. We do howl and its a lot of fun.
We love these dogs. Together we have a very happy
home. The best bonus of all is that I'm not
having any problems with my asthma. Thank you for raising
hypo
allergenic dogs so having Dewey and Kona is possible
for me with my severe dog allergy.
Happy Holidays.
Kevin Jonatzke”

“Karen,
I revised my company website:
http://www.jonatek.com/
There is a picture with me wearing a company shirt
with Dewey and Kona on each side of me on the About Us page.
I take Dewey and Kona to work everyday. They go on
deliveries, visit with customers and fellow employees, and have
access to our entire facility. I get a lot of questions about these
awesome dogs. Would you mind if I had a link to your website?
Attached is a picture of Kona sitting with Ruth. I
wish it turned out better. I was using a cell phone camera in dim light.
Kona makes Ruth look tiny.
