Phew!!!    More impressive than I realized!!!   :-)   :-)    

Now, what was I saying???

Oh, yeah....Harley won Best of Breed under Dr. Dale Simmons!!!     

Harley's incomparable handler is Sharlonna and his groomer-extraordinaire, my 
double-handler assistant, herding trainer/handler Dr. Gloria Rice.   What a 
team, eh???

We WERE going to have his pedigree printed on his sides, but, the AKC has some 
silly rule about dying dogs.  Maybe the List can take a petition to the AKC and 
tell them how much they really love to read pedigrees??  Just a thought.

What is REALLY cool about this brag is that it didn't cost me $5.614 per square 
inch....but, who's counting???    :-)   :-)     Thanks  Zoe!!  I know that some 
editors feel less is more, and most people don't want to read too much (short 
attention spans??), but, then others want more info, some for themselves and 
some for posterity and some to slam.  

Damn....it is SO hard to try to please everybody, but, THAT IS what good girls 
do, right?

Subject: A stranger in a strange land

Tedi wanted to buy some leads so we went to the Santa Ana all breed  show.
 
We had some time so we wondered over to the shepherd ring. The Best of  
Breed dog was a real good looking champion male with great ring presence, a  
fantastic side gate, and all the type you could want.
 
I tried to find out what his pedigree was, and who he was, but no one  
seemed to know.  I don't know who he was, but I heard someone call him  Harley. 
 
I will have to see who I can call to find out his sire and  dam.
 
I do wish owners would print on the side of the dog who his parents  are.
