thank you SO much for mentioning this amazing dog, evan. Sel Am Sel Can Covy-Tucker Hill's Don Quixote ROM, ROMC, TC, OFA was the first dog to whom i ever bred a bitch and my girl got her ROM from that breeding! he was incredible - the epitome of what a show dog should be, tough as nails when he needed to be, (that "show dog" could really hit a sleeve), and as wonderful a companion as anyone could ever want. it's almost ironic that his owner began the GSDCA's AOE program in 1990, much too late for the then 11 year old Cody to participate. thanks for mentioning him and bringing back some wonderful memories for me - he truly was a "special" dog. diane Diane Silver-Strasser Silstra German Shepherds _Skatiebug'z_ (http://skatiebugz.shutterfly.com/) The online store for everything German Shepherd and then some! _http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com_ (http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com/) Skater's Blog In a message dated 4/26/2010 5:09:25 P.M.
