Our kennel name, Konza Vadasz, combines the Hungarian word for "hunter" -- vadasz, with the name early plains Native Americans called themselves, Konza -- people of the south wind. The name of our state, Kansas, is a derivation of Konza, which is sometimes spelled "Kanza" or "Konsa."

Palownia's Sanibel Sally CM. "Sally" was bred by Stephen & Stephanie Renjiak and is part of our extended family as well;
her dam is Vizland's Lady Lilac, our Tulip's sister.
When we got to the show grounds in Orlando, we discovered Eukanuba's Super Retriever Series Nationals Dock Jumping going on and immediately signed up for competition in the Amateur Division. Betyar had a blast jumping and made it into the Amateur Finals with a jump of 11' 5"!
He bettered that with his second jump in the Finals round, 11' 11"! He ended up ranking 7th out of the 12 National Amateur Finalists.
The crowd loved his performance.
so please check back often to see what we've added!
