I have had the pleasure of recieving one of petr pups who now is two years old and is an amazing family member. Petr has been very professional and has answered as well as guided me through the process and stages of my german shepherd. I would recommend and urge any one who is looking for a professional breeder, trainer, and a new family member to contact petr spurny and his staff!
Petr comes across rather harsh, but he is an awesome trainer and breeder. He cares about his dogs and his clients. I bought a beautiful puppy, Elias from him one month ago. He is an awesome pup. I can't say enough good things about the dog.

I have been devoted to the GSD for the past 46 years. Six months ago, I purchased a 20 month old male Czech import GSD from Petr, Owner of K-9 Specialists, DeLand, FL I met both Petr and Libor, owners of K-9 Specialists, DeLand, FL and was very impressed with their knowledge, respect and love of GSD. Before I purchased my pup, I carefully reviewed their videos of my pup in Schutzhund training and his IPO Titles, his obedience training videos, sound temperament and social training videos. Petr's Extensive and Detailed history of my pup was TOTALLY ACCURATE! I respect the Amazing HONESTY, Professionalism and Loving Hands-On CARING for their dogs. Believe me, during my past 46 years of owning 8 GSDs, I have NEVER experienced Trainers nor Breeders to Even Approximate the Brilliance and Love of the GSD as K-9 Specialists, DeLand, FL! Truly, Peter and Libor and associates have a Great "CALLING/VOCATION" to the GSD and carefully place the pups with prospective individuals and CONTINUE Life-long follow-up of the pups! Six months later, my 2-year-old pup is Superlative in All Ways: Health; Stamina for work; bold; Superior Protection dog; Kind; Loving; Eager; Brilliant... My pup is a Great Blessing and I give prayers of thanksgiving for Petr and Libor of K-9 Specialists of DeLand, FL... Suzanne C. Parsa, Montgomery, AL
I purchased Fantom from Petr, excellent Czech puppy. He is worth every single penny plus more than we spent on him. Petr was very professional.
