Default Anyone know if Kaykohl land is still in business??

Just curious if anyone knows? I bought my current German Shepherd Kaos from Farrah in 2003. He is a grandson of Kevin Vom Murrtal. I always keep an eye on her site because it's informative and I did want to eventually (when I have $$ available) get another pup while Kaos is still alive. I remember her saying because of family issues she was cutting back on her breeding program. All pups were reserved for 2012. Then it got to be she would just sell to former buyers of her pups. Now I see her site has been down awhile......

The site was up three weeks ago and I communicated with Farrah at that time. She is not selling to the general public anymore. You must be a past client or referred by one. My fabulous boy Viggo is from Farrah and I rescued him from a very bad situation. She's charging $ 3500 up for puppies.

It's gonna be a while before I can afford another GS. I looked at vet bills. Between x-rays, stem cell and complications. I have spent about $3500 in the last month.....

When I bought from Farrah. She had different prices for different lines and what you wanted to do (show etc). She matches owner with pup. My Kaos was sold as a companion dog. He had the limited registration papers. Kaos (Hill was his name when sold to me) was $1800 plus $300 for the delta plane fare. I was on her waiting list 8 months for a male. I was scheduled to get a male from her Idol-Elke litter. But he wasn't putting on weight like he should. So Farrah said I can't sell him to you. But she was getting/part owner of 4 import males from a Bodo in Regnum & Dina Bildeiche Quelle litter in Hungary. Kevin was Bodo's father. She had actually wanted to buy Bodo for her breeding program but he wasn't for sale. She said I feel so bad. You waited so long. I'll let you have the pup for $1500 which was the price I was going to pay for the Idol-Elke pup.....

I picked Farra to buy from because she seemed so concerned about her pups. I had to go through an interview before she would sell (have you ever owned a GS before. any other dogs in the house. their age. does every family member want a GS. how long will the dog be left alone. how big is your yard. is it fenced. how high is the fence. goals for the pup etc etc). Then she wanted you to stay in touch with her as the dog aged. Then send her pics of the dog as he gets older. She also wanted the dog back if something ever happened and I could no longer take care of him. She had about 250 testimonials on her site about the dogs she sold......

Farrah got the pups I believe at age 6 or 7 weeks. She knew I was going to use the name Kaos. When I got him he was 8 or 9 weeks. He already knew "sit". Also knew his name Kaos. He was already so friendly and well socialized when I got him. He loved other dogs also. I still remember taking him over to see my cousins black lab. Kaos wagged his tail then kept putting his paw out to Max. The 1st time I took Kaos to the Vet I used to use. They told me I would have a friendly dog. They could just tell. He was loveable then and now. But hes also a great protector. I walk him on an unlit bike path at all hours. One time two would be muggers-troublemakers found that out the hard way....

I'll keep jagermeister in mind for when the time comes. I also found heard great things about Bullinger Shepherds. They actually own Kevin. Even saw a bunch of great pics for his 13th birthday. Since Kaos bloodlines came from a dog/dogs they own. If they would sell me a pup I would probably buy from them (if not Kaykohl land). Besides viewing the Bullinger site I have never spoken to them......

Viggo is 4 years old and they paid 1400.00 plus air fare. Farrah was not happy about his situation and told me it was part of the reason she is no longer selling to the general public. When her site was up if my memory is correct, $ 3500 was for the companion GSD. I would pay that price for another GSD like Viggo, awesome temperament and amazing with teaching other dogs correct manners.
