We could give you a million reasons to choose Prairie Haus Kennels, but let's have our customers tell the story...

 
Pula and Titan
Ken and Lewana,
Meg and I want to express our thanks to both of the additions to our family. I am going tell our story and please feel free to post this as you please.
My wife and I wanted a German Shepherd as both of us grew up with German dogs. I looked across the country and interviewed many breeders until I found Ken. After the initial phone call we agreed to meet so I could checkout his operation. Upon arrival, Ken actually interviewed me, in a very caring way and concern for his dogs future. We look around and we were very pleased with the care and quality of his breed. At that point we committed to a male pup.
For anyone concerned about Ken and Lewana’s commitment to guarantee their dogs. I can say without question they will stand behind that guarantee. We had an issue with our litter and Ken quickly called to let us know the situation. Ken pushed me to wait for the next litter, because we had committed to the pick male. Ken's prize female, Pula and our pups mother, was injured during the litter. My wife and I decided to follow through with our litter anyway and took a smaller male home. Ken called almost every day with concern for the health and quality of his pup. Let’s just say, after a period of time for a small pup we are VERY lucky to have the exact dog we wanted . His name is Titan. He came through like a champ and is a very beautiful male. Through all of the early days, Ken would have done want ever we wanted to insure our satisfaction.
We all became good friends and I called Ken daily with questions. He was never short and always took time to help us with anything we needed. As a result, Titan will do and has done everything asked of him.
The end of this story came 4 months ago when we got a call from Ken telling me he had to retire Pula, Titans mother. He asked if I would be interested, without question we said yes! She is the sweetest, most intelligent female dog we have ever been around.
We are blessed to have two of the most beautiful Germans around!
Ken and Lewana, if you ever need anything just call!

In June of 2005, my husband and I were on the road to pick up my long awaited birthday gift of Otto Vom Prairie Haus. Purchased for me by my oldest son. After extensive searching on the internet for the right breeders, and speaking to a few, we luckily were able to find Prairie Haus Kennels and Ken and Lewana. Most of our friends and family were of the opinion we had to be nuts to drive from Colorado to Indiana just to pick up a dog. After driving through all sorts of nasty
weather, we were beginning to wonder ourselves if we weren't indeed out of our minds.
Looking back, this was one of the best trips we've made in the years. Otto, has been such a wonderful addition to our family. Not only is he one of the most gorgeous Shepherds around, he has a temperment that is unmatched in most shepherds I've run across. As far as his training is concerned, Otto, quickly picks up what is asked of him and is eager to learn. He has an amazing understanding of the difference between adults, whom he can rough house with, and my six year old grand daughter, whom he's gentle as a lamb with. Otto, also has the natural protectiveness and fearlessness that any owner of a quality German Shepherd appreciates.
I obviously could go on for hours about how beautiful and smart Otto is. I could also tell you about every single law officer that stops me to talk about Otto. I will tell you this, if you are looking for a top quality shepherd, and breeders who will be there to answer any question and guarantee your pup, Ken and Lewana give more than I personally expected. I will definitely purchase my female from Prairie Haus Kennells when it's time.

The following letter is for Praire Haus Kennels as a testimonial to Ken Uselton and his wife Lewana's dedication and commitment to thier kennel. I began my search for a quality German Shepard puppy 2 years ago, and did all research necessary to find the "right" dog for me. I found Praire Haus Kennels via the Internet and made an appointment to visit the Useltons and tour their kennels, at the time located just outside of Brookston. Upon arrival I was very impressed by the cleanliness and set-up of the facility as well as the well mannered nature of the all of the dogs. I, personally, had never been
in contact with dogs that were as well trained and obedient as the dogs at Praire Haus. It didn't take long for me to decide that they were the breeder for me. Ken and Lewana have been nothing but friendly and helpful ever since my first visit.
Upon relocating to their new facility, they assisted me in training my dog in obedience. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality German Shepard or Rottweiler. Ken's expertise on dog training and obedience is unrivaled and Lewana's warm and inviting nature will keep me refering them to anyone on the search for a puppy.

Dala Von Prairie Haus (Sammy)
The above photo is of "Sammie." She is 5 months old. When I located Prairie Haus Kennels and met Ken and Lewana Uselton I was very impressed by the cleanliness of the area where Sammie's mother and father were. Her mother and father are beautiful and Sammie is one of the most beautiful German Shepherds I've ever had. You can see the intelligence she has by the way she looks at you and those awesome Shepherd ears, ever alert and erect. My son Andy and I couldn't be happier with Sammie and love her tremendously. If you want a healthy, smart, and beautiful German Shepherd that will be your faithful companion and friend for many years, turn to Prairie Haus Kennels. Sincerely, Larry Sweitzer

Enka Von Prairie Haus
I wanted to send you this picture of Enka. She is now 5 months old. She is very strong, intelligent and has a very good conformation. When my husband and I were looking to purchase a Shepherd, temperament also played a very important part in our decision making, since we have a lot of children at our home. My husband and I both feel we made an excellent decision by purchasing from Prairie Haus Kennels.
Thanks Again,
Rebecca Sheets
 
My family and I purchased a puppy from Ken and Lewana Uselton about two years ago. We had owned many purebred dogs over the years and have delt with all kinds of breeders. We were very impressed with the cleanliness and order that we found at Prairie Haus Kennels. The dogs were clean and well maintained and we found no excess of noise at the kennel. We always recommend Ken to people who are interested in a well bred German Shepherd.
Sincerely, Eva Zinsmeister

Bracci Von Prairie Haus
The above picture is of Bracci Von Prairie Haus (Grendel) show a 17-month-old bitch with correct substance and bone. What cannot be seen is her solid temperament, trainability, and courage. Jerry and I, owners, breeders, and trainers of German shepherds for over 40 years are happy to recommend Prairie Haus kennels as conscientious breeders of the true working type shepherd.

Ellie Von Prairie Haus
Ellie has been a very affectionate addition to our family. The kids love her and she is very good
with them. I'm getting the best of both worlds because although she looks ferocious, which is exactly what I wanted, she is a pussycat to kids and family.
Thank you,
Neil Garrison

Halli Von Prairie Haus
We bought a female from Ken and Lewana at Prairiehause Kennels in April 2004. Her name is Halli. Her actual birth date is February 16th, 2004. Halli is a wonderful addition to our three other German Shepherds. Not only is Halli pretty but she has a super personality and is very smart. Sometimes it is scary cause it seems like she can anticipate what we are going to do. Ken and Lewana's dedication to the breed is also without question. Watching Ken work with his German Shepherd is a treat. I highly recommend anyone who is considering owning a German Shepherd to visit them.
You will not be disappointed.

Shiloh Von Prairie Haus
My journey to find the "perfect" German Shepherd ended at Prairie Haus Kennels. Last April, I purchased Hildegard Von Prairie Haus from Ken and Lewana Uselton. I tried to research German Shepherds to the fullest before I purchased one. During this search, I met a lot of "backyard breeders" and breeders who had very little information to offer me. However, Ken and Lewana answered every question and concern I had. I went to see the puppies and before I ever saw them I saw her parents. This was an amazing experience for me. These dogs had unbelievable discipline and a great work ethic. I knew from the start of my visit that this is where I would be purchasing my pup. "Shiloh" is now almost one year old and the greatest addition to my family. I am 24 years old and single, but she is the greatest companion I know. She is a very intelligent, caring, and noble German Shepherd. She was very easy to train and could be walked in a crowded neighborhood without a leash. She is excellent around kids, but still has the look and presence of a guard dog that strangers would not want to challenge. I cannot say enough about Ken and Lewana and the operation that they run. It is a great environment that is full of great dogs. They have been very helpful to me whenever I have any kind of question about Shiloh. They respond to every e-mail within one day and I take all their advice to the bank. Thank you Prairie Haus Kennels for blessing me with Shiloh. She is an all-around great German Shepherd

I Just wanted to express our thanks to Ken and Lewana at Prairie Haus Kennels.
My wife and I searched and researched high and low MANY different breeders in our quest for a high quality Shepherd breeder with special attention to proper breeding and health. Our long search came to an end when we arrived at Prairie Haus kennels.
Almost instantly we knew that we had found what we were looking for. Ken showed us the litter of pups after spending time demonstrating just what type of temperment and drive the parents had (Queen and Yps).My wife and I were impressed with the beauty and structure of the Dogs. But most importantly we were amazed with the cleanliness of the kennels & whelping facility.
I knew instantly that our search for the new addition to our family was over. I would not hesitate to recomend Prairie Haus kennels to anyone who is looking for the highest quality German Shepherds out there .
