Did you ever go to a dog show and lose, but have loads of fun anyway? Today was that kind of a day. The weather was super: sunny, breezy and in the low 70s with NO humidity. There weren't a lot of shepherds shown and I should tell you now that both kids (Brando and Jeddie) went Reserve. BUT it was OK: a few people came up to me to compliment my beautiful black bitch--I just stood there and watched Fred move her around the ring and I was in awe. She has such a joie de vivre and she moves like a machine! I could watch her all day. I thank God that Sharon Todoroff let me have her--the 5 year wait for a solid black Jed daughter was worth it. I Have NEVER seen her look better than she did today. (Can you tell I'm in love?) Penny in NY ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
