Hi Kathy-
Jesse Brooks here. First off I want to tell you how much of a joy having Nugget is. She has been about as perfect a dog as anyone could want. Just pure love and fun. So much so that we are beginning to think of getting another one. Nugget has been such a well tempered, sweet natured dog and she's beautiful!
Look forward to planning for a new one. We moved down to Austin about a year ago. Nugget is super happy here - lots of opportunity to get out and run around.
Also, we are so happy with JNEK that we wouldn't think of using any other breeders and there are quite a few down here.
Hope you and your family are well.
Best,
Jesse

We made it through the first couple of days!! Every day has been an adventure with red girl Sheridan! She has so much personality and love that I really have to justify spending time away from her. The beauty of the dog is really truly amazing and I think it reflects on how great JNEK Vizslas are. They really are the top dogs!! Everywhere I go I am constantly being bombarded with questions regarding her as well as complements. I am so glad that I was able to find you for my next companion as anywhere else would now not have met my expectations. You truly have a wealth of knowledge regarding all dogs but especially Vizslas, that is transpired into the quality of your dogs!

Hi Kathy and Jeff,
I wasn't able to meet you today at the IKC dog show. But I did want to tell you that when I met your dogs I was reminded why I love Vizslas so much. The temperament of your dogs were just great. They just put themselves right on your lap and just seemed so happy. I have one Vizsla right now and he is the love of my life. I would like to tell you that when we start to look for a new dog I will be contacting you. If you know any trainers who would take on Field training of a seven year old dog, please let me know. Thank you again for keeping the breed going in such a healthy and happy way.
All my best
Mara Salerno

Kathy and Jeff are the greatest. After being dogless for a few years, Peggy and I wanted a new friend. Meeting and seeing the Jnek Vizslas at the Chicago dog show we were hooked. WE brought our new puppy home at the end of June 06, and are still amazed at this great dog. Outstanding hunting skills, loving companionship, beauty and grace. She loves the water and woods of Wisconsin, the Hills of Texas, and travels better than most adults. A real Velcro dog, and great family member. Anyone wanting a great Vizsla, contact Jeff and Kathy.U

We were looking for a hunting dog and good companion and after much research we decided on the vizsla breed. We found JNEKS vizsla's on the internet and have been very pleased with our 10 month old puppy. Jeff & Kathy have been extremely helpful, and have given us guidance with any questions we have had. We will in the future buy another JNEKS vizla. We would with out hesitiation recommend JNEKS vizsla to anyone looking for a quality vizsla.

In the early months of 2002 I decided to begin the search for my next Vizsla. My female was getting up there in years so I started the search for her successor. Having owned Vizsla's since the late 70's, I decided this time I would do my homework and find a reputable breeder of quality dogs. After a lot of research Jnek Vizsla's was where my search ended. Kathy & Jeff's knowledge, dedication, commitment to breeding healthy dogs with great temperaments made my decision to purchase a puppy from them easy. I was so impressed I bought two puppies from them. Both of my Jnek dogs are conformationally correct, very trainable, poses great hunting instinct and most importantly are GREAT pets!

I can not even begin to express my appreciation for all the knowledge and support that has been conveyed to me by the Engelsman family. With their guidance, my vizsla and I have ventured into field, show, agility, and rally with success. I always know Kathy and Jeff are only a phone call away...very comforting for this first time vizsla owner!! Thanks guys!

We wanted "just a pet" when searching for our first vizsla puppy. While our 2 JNEK vizslas are beloved members of our family, they have also introduced us to the world of dogs. Our dogs are great personal hunting companions and spend countless weekends searching out wild pheasant each fall. Both dogs were show champions at young ages and have titles in field, agility and obedience venues. JNEK V's are very intelligent and can do it all! We have appreciated the mentoring provided by Kathy and Jeff throughout our various experiences.

JNEK Vizslas is top-notch. For owners Kathy and Jeff Engelsman, producing quality dogs exhibiting the best of the Vizsla breed are of paramount importance. The Engelsmans are assiduous in every detail of breeding, placement, and training for excellence. They follow up with expert advice and coaching for new owners, both in the field and in the show ring. For their professionalism and "t.l.c." I can only give kudos to the Engelsmans and JNEK Vizslas.
