Hey Ed: sorry to see that you're in "conformation retirement!" Did you breed those several dogs that could have finished or bought them? Did you buy your GV son? I'm asking this because I'm curious if you bought them, did you not see that they didn't have the front's that you were looking for? If you bred them, why did you keep them if they didn't have the front that you wanted? Just curious!
