Though I no longer show GSDs but will always own one,the only trophies 
we kept when we moved to Roscommon were the 6 Wood Placques which our 
dogs won in great compitition ,breeder-owner-handled....they make me 
smile...looking forward to seeing the Fut-Mat.winners at the 
National.I wouldn't miss it..see you there !

over my

Wine and My

dog's

> I will sneak out in the middle of a warm Summer night and take my 
dogs for a 
> run, if my old bones will allow... and when people come to call, I 
will smile 
> and nod as I show them my dogs... and talk of them and about them... 
The Ones 
> so  Beloved of the Past and the Ones so Beloved of Today....
> I still will work hard cleaning after them and mopping and feeding 
them and 
> whispering their names in a soft, loving way. I will wear their 
gleaming drool 
> on my throat like a jewel, and I will be an embarrassment to all, 
and my 
> family... who have not yet found the peace in being free to have 
dogs as your Best 
> Friends....
> These friends who always wait, at any hour, for your footfall....and 
eagerly 
> jump to their feet out of a sound sleep, to greet you as if you are 
a God. 
> With warm eyes full of adoring love and hope that you will stay and 
hug their 
> big, strong necks... and kiss their dear sweet heads....and whisper 
to them of 
> your love and the beautiful pleasure of their very special 
company....
> I look in the Mirror...and see I am getting old....this is the kind 
of woman 
> I am...and have always been. Loving dogs is easy, they are part of 
me, accept 
> me for who I am.  My dogs appreciate my presence in their lives... 
When I am 
> old this will be important to me...  you will understand when you 
are old.... 
> and if you have dogs to love too.  (Author Unknown)
