When a dear friend, Ann Brown of Sybarite kennels passed away many years back,a few of her friends and myself decided to donate a perpetual trophy in her memory to the Canadian Nationals for Best of Winners. It was a brushed bronze standing statue of a GSD done by Dannyquest, well mounted. Look gorgeous, and still does. Uncus came to mind because that first year, he took WD and BOW will Bill Basu showing. He was the first name on the trophy and will always be etched in my mind.....and a nice dog.
