Hi, Zhargis Kennels is owned by Karen Zdan. I sent her a $500 refundable deposit back in 2001 and to make a long story short, she basically kept the money and disappeared. In the end, I am so, so, so thankful that I did not end up getting a puppy from her, but in making my story public (like Annie and the rest have done with Rustic) I learned that I was not the only one who has been wronged by Karen Zdan. Anyway, I have also heard that she no longer breeds the Cane Corso, so karma does work! Here is the last I've heard about her, from the Pet-Abuse.com website:
