I believe that WAS a million years ago Ed. <G> ( BOB under Janice ) My first time ever to travel to 'special' a dog. It was indoors and I was horrified with this huge big bi color male that had only shown in big outdoor rings with plenty of room. He still floated around the ring with power like he was out on grass. One of the few GOOD photos he ever took also.....so we used it for the Ad. He was definitely not photogenic and hated being posed .....so he would give Jerry a hard time and brace himself when the choke chain went up ...and lose all of his angles. A small war going on when he was posed......but Jerry handled it with such aplomb no one knew. <G> He would do anything for Jerry till that choke chain went up to pose...then all bets were off. When he went to shows with us for years after he was G.V......he would look for Jerry in the crowd and always barked till he came over to give him a treat and give him a pat.

It seems like a million years ago Janice Staley judged the Jan/Feb Chicago shows..( Mid 90's I guess)...I saw an ad in the Review with Janice giving WD or maybe even BOB ( I can't remember) to this drop dead gorgeous Bi-color dog!....I called Janice up and asked her about the dog and the owner!......several months later I'm reading a classified ad in the Review from a woman from Port Alberni Canada......advertising a litter sired by this Bi-color bombshell.......I flew up to Canada to visit the woman......never owning a show GSD before I bought two out of that litter...a year or so latter I bought two more ( Same Sire)............been hooked on that dog ever since!...........a Supreme Court justice once said.." I can't define what pornography is, but I know it when I see it".......I can't discuss shoulder blades and dogs kicking up in the rear like Mr Goldfarb, Ms Fox, or Ms Martello......but I know a great GSD when I see it.....who is this wonderful Bi-color dog I speak of ....................................GV Marhaven's Color Guard....THE BOSS.....Ed Hill ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2011.
