We purchased a German Shepherd puppy from ICNDF and brought him home at eight weeks. He is now nine months old and a real treasure.  In our case, both parents were imported from Europe by Jim and bred on his premises.  The quality and temperament of Jim’s dogs is excellent.  Not only will you get a great pup from ICNDF, but Jim will be there after the sale to answer any questions and help with guidance.  A period of excellent training is provided by Jim at no charge…he considers it part of being a responsible dog breeder.  You can trust Jim and ICNDF to be fair and professional.  They go above and beyond and really care about your experience with them and your pup.  We’re thrilled we got Bruder from ICNDF and highly recommend Jim and his facility to anyone looking for a great dog.

Dear Jim & Barbara,

I am writing on behalf of my husband Dan and myself in regards to our German Shepherd puppies.   In 2004, we purchased our first puppy, Gretta from your facility.  We couldn’t be happier with her.  Almost exactly a year later, we purchased our second puppy, Simba.  Again, we couldn’t ask for anything more out of our dogs. 

Since we purchased the dogs from you, they have both grown and matured into amazing pets.  Their companionship and loyalty are what make them the best things that have ever happened to us.  They are healthy, beautiful dogs and we get compliments everywhere we take them, which is anywhere they are allowed.  Because of the basic obedience training that comes with the purchase of a puppy from your facility, our dogs are well behaved and enjoyable to be around.  No matter where we go or who we run into, they are always impressing people. 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for being there and doing what you do.  It is an amazing thing to come across such good people who love their jobs and provide such high quality service.  We have utilized your boarding facility quite a few times since owning our dogs and we can only praise you on that as well.  Our dogs always come home safe and healthy.  We never worry about them when we leave them with you.  It is so nice to have a safe place to leave these valuable members of our family.  I don’t know what we would do without them. 

We hope that your business continues to thrive as we are happy to refer others to you and also hope to find our next pet at your kennel as well. 

So, thank you for doing what you do and your dedication to it,

Most sincerely satisfied,

Dan and Kristie Smith

In 1997 we met the German Shepherd dog that would change our lives forever. He was a loyal and trusted protector names Santos, from Czech Republic, whom we obtained from Jim Kunz at the ICNDF Dog Training Center. Santos was trained by Jim in narcotics detection and personal protection. Santos saved Kathy's life on at least two occasions. In his later years he became a therapy dog as he loved people, especially children. Santos died February 14, 2007. Because Santos gave so much of his time to the Jacksonville Fire Department, he was given a color guard burial. We will always be grateful to Jim for introducing Santos to us.

Recently, we came to Jim again asking him to help us find just the right dog for our specific needs.  Jim introduced us to Brando, who arrived from Hungary. He is a 16-month-old sable German Shepherd who is currently being trained by Jim in tracking and urban search & rescue. Brando will work with us in south Georgia and north Florida providing protection and rescue services.

We are extremely grateful to Jim Kunz for his expertise and compassion in locating and training these two shepherds.
