Whoo-Hooo ! Yay Alvinnnnnnnn ! Whadda guy ! One question, does he get a gold retirement watch ? ~Shirley terra fairburn <Terraf@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Joann and I wanted to put a brag on the list in regards to our special boy Alvinnnnn. So much of any dog is the team behind him or her. Our Alvin this weekend ended his official show career with a Group 2 under the judge that started his young career at 6 months old...Chris Walkawitz. Thank you to the many judges over the years that have given him points, selects, veteran classes, group placements, CD legges, his herding instinct title, his CGC title, his therapy dog title, his temperment title. We could not put a posting to the German Shepherd Fancy without mentioning some very special people. Leslie & Donna from team Aramist that helped our boy grow to manhood and started and followed him through his show career, not trying to lead, not following, just walking with us on what for us has been an incredible journey. Thank you endlessly for the majors, the selects, the veteran class wins, the tears, the joys, and the friendship during those years! Our friend and fabulous co-ow ner Carole Micheal-Trotwood German Shepherds for believing in that leggy drooling puppy that we presented you with with dreams and plans for his future we will never forget you looking at him over your glasses and saying mmmm if you guys really think he's all that I'm in! We could not have accomplished and enjoyed this journey without you. Alvins senior days handler....junior handler Melissa Chavez. She has joined our Joelle team and Alvin loves her like no other they have created a team of their own, finding what works and what doesn't and making history for us by snatching a select at almost 9yrs of age. Our pride for this junior runneth over. And last but never never never never never least his fans. The glue that holds the puzzle together the fellow stud dog owners that have cried with us over wins and losses the public many from the Quad Cities area that chanted his name at the national, the year in Canada his favorite place to strut his stuff stomping on the bleachers for him in support of him. The endless wonderful calls and emails from wonderful people that just say hey we love your boy his is beutiful. Those are the precious things we call memories that will never be forgotten and alway be held in the most highest regard. Thank you would never cover it from Joann and I. We will God willing be breeding and promoting dogs for many years to come but our Chapter with Alvin has its own special section in our heart. We both have bred special dogs in the past but he was our first together. As for Alvin he is completely and blissfully unaware of the emotion that surrounds him. He still entertains the ladies enthusasticly and continues to add to his collect of stuffed toys last count aw heck whos counting anyway? Alway the best in dogs and health Tiffany (and of course Joann) Joelle Kennels ------------------------------------------------ No Virus Found In This Message Scanned at barracuda.geneseo.net ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
