Thanks to all who recognized his quality! His ribbons and awards are all treasured and are occupying my living room and dining room. I loved the contrast between what Paula said and what Norma said. I know both of these fine ladies and always enjoy seeing them, laughing with them and listening. I know Norma was posting just a bit tongue in cheek, but we should only do this dog stuff when it is fun. After all, nothing about dog shows will change the world, stop hunger or cure cancer. But it doesn't get more fun than to see your fiends win another ribbon. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Evan L.
