I would like to take this opportunity to thank the
people who have supported von Hayden German Shepherds.
A
very special thank you to my second mother, best friend, and business manager, Elaine. Without your help and
guidance, I'd be completely lost. It’s not every day you meet someone who will give you something and expect nothing
in return, and for this I am grateful. Thank you for your hard work, time, effort and support. Over the last few years you've
made a HUGE impact on von Hayden German Shepherds. There are no words to express your kindness. Thank
you for always having an open door policy with von Hayden's team; you’re always a very gracious host.
An
enormous thank you to my second father, Jack. Thank you for the countless hours (months) of consulting, talks, guidance,
help and time you've put into von Hayden German Shepherds! Your advice has been unsurpassed; you've
helped us through some of the roughest times and I can't even find words to explain how grateful we are. You and your
wife are two of the most important team members we could ever ask for. Also, thanks for opening your mind and heart
to our dogs; it means the world to us.
An exceptional thank you to one of the most compassionate and
knowledgeable vets ever, Dr. George Cattiny Jr. Thank you for the endless hours you've spend with our team, our
dogs and myself! Your insight of the German Shepherd breed and our program, is superior to all others.
You are another cherished team member who can never be replaced. You've always been reliable regardless of time,
travels or schedules, and for this I am most grateful (as are all of our animals). Thank you for your time, guidance
and help throughout the years, and we look forward to the years that are to come.
A very warm thank you to Birgit Asel
for making it possible for us to add some fantastic dogs to our breeding program. I'd also like to thank you for being
a gracious host when we come to Germany. Your hospitality is very much appreciated. I'd also like to thank you for giving
me my shadow #1 and one of the loves of my life, Tina. My life would have been so different without her, and for
this I thank you a million times. (Ein sehr warmes Danke schön an Birgit , die es für uns möglich
machte das wir einige fantastische Hunde in unserem Zuchtprogram hinzuzufügen konnten. Ich möchte Dir auch danken
für die Einlandung wenn wir nach Deutschland kommen . Deine Gastfreundlichkeit schätzen wir sehr. Danke ,für
meinen Schatten Nr 1 ( eine von vielen ) und die Liebe meines lebens, Tina. Mein Leben wäre so anders ohne sie und für
das bedanke ich mich millionweise.)
A big thank you to Wolfgang & Elfriede Wagner for my shadow #2
and another love of my life, Nando. You did a fabulous job training Nando, and I can't thank you enough for your
graciousness. Thank you for being patient and understanding with us throughout the years. Nando is not
only adored but he is also catered to and receives the royal treatment here. I can't imagine my life without him,
and for this I thank you with all my heart. (Ein grosses Danke
schön auch an Wolfgang und Elfriede für meinen Schatten NR 2 und eine weitere Liebe meines lebens, Nando.
Du hast eine fabelhafte Arbeit geleistet in der Ausbildung von Nando. Danke das ihr die Jahre hindurch so geduldig und verständissvoll
uns gegenüber seid.Macht euch keine Sorgen, Nando wird hier angehimmelt und bedient wie ein König. Ich könnte mein Leben ohne ihn auch nicht mehr vorstellen. Ich bedanke mich aus tiefsten
Herzen.)
A huge thank you to Yvette, for your friendship and kindness! You are doing an amazing job,
with Kona and quite proud to have you as part of our team. Thank you for being a great friend! You've
been patient, understanding and very compassionate and there is no words to express our gratitude. We eagerly look forward
to the memories that lay ahead.
A special thank you to Linda for your
devotion to our dogs! You are doing an outstanding job, and we are so proud to have you in our team. Thanks for always lending
a helping hand, when its needed. Also thank you for always having an
open door policy with von Hayden's team; you too are always a gracious host. We look forward to the memories that are
to come in the years to follow.
A special Thank You to my clients!!! I've had the greatest
luck with clients; you are the very best in the world. Thank you all, for your support, friendship and loyalty. You've
all been so wonderful throughout the years. Thank you for all the beautiful, heartfelt testimonies. I can't express my
appreciation for all you've done for my dogs.
