Outstanding Kennel & Breeder Specializing in German Shepherd
by FrankKovacs
We searched for a solid breeder as our 9 yo daugther wanted a german shepherd. After a long search we were led to Jardo Kennels by numerous local recommendations - vet's, other owners, etc. They are simply the best - we have a wonderful dog with beautiful lines, disposition, and the Jardo's are always there to help in any way with suggestions, tips, boarding help when we travel and even with her training. This is a top notch operation where their heart and love go into every puppy they breed - Kovacs Family, East Brunswick NJ
- Pros: Wonderful, Healthy Dogs raised on love
- Cons: None

Not reommended

I purchased a puppy from this facility 11 years ago. First of all, let me be clear when I say that I loved my dog very much. He recently crossed over the Rainbow Bridge 02/08/2007. However, his life was riddled with many problems, caused by his breeding. My "Jardo" bred dog had a VERY long history of ear problems, thyroid problems, skin problems, and neurologic problems w/his rear legs. The dog suffered a lot in his last 4 years of life. I did my best by taking him to the vet, and made him as comfortable as possible. But I am very angry at the quality of the breed line. And last, his coat was long haired. Which is not the standard for a German Shepherd. I was not told this by the breeder, and felt "taken advantage of". Pros: the dogs temperment and intelligence were very good. He was the sweetest dog, and I still miss him more than ever. But I wish problems like he had on NO animal. I blame the breeding of Jardo Kennels 100% for those faults. Hopefully they can correct this problem. My vet mentioned that she saw many problems like this from his kennel over the years.
- Pros: The dogs personality and intelligence are good
- Cons: the breeding has many faults such as: ear problems, thyroid, hip/leg problems, fistula, & skin problems.
