The day before, Saturday, Ileana Nogueras' bitch, Karizma's Mauritania, got the points in San Antonio. This is the way this co-ownership works: when she wins, she is Ileana's dog, when she loses, she is mine. ( ????? ) Tania is by the handsome hunk, CH Karizma's Born IN The USA, and out of Karizma's Tanzania ROM. Oh, and also sister to Winners Dog at the National last year, "Rogue" and CH Karizma's Liberia von Loar, Maturity Victrix last year. Go Tania !!!! (another Karizma Black Beauty ) :) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Way to go Tania!! We had a good weekend in San Antonio, moved away from the 100's plus temperatures in Dallas to the nice 99's in San Antonio.....what a difference one degree makes......the inside shows in the air conditioned facility helped too.........G>......one of my weekend highlights was to visit with old friends and meet new friends, it makes the weekend more enjoyable when you share it with good GSD people. Love you Rose! It is always interesting to show at the all breeds. Friday was good training for a bitch that has never shown inside, she made us proud, she did good. Lots of people had stop by and touch the ONLY black GSD they have ever seen. They didn't know GSD came in all black!! Saturday the GSD were shown in the Group ring, fully carpeted. It was to our advantage, Tania looked AWESOME!!! She had great crowd support, with lots of clapping, you know how rare that is at the all breeds. She gaited herself beautifully to Winners Bitch. Sunday, Ms Tania had an epiphany and decided that is was time to be done with the little rings. So we did. We are done with the little rings. We want Big Rings Only!!! Thanks to Sergio Espejo for pivoting this Black Beauty so well this weekend. She takes some getting used to. And thanks to Leon Bruner for lending a helping hand in Winners and BOB competition. On a different kind of Brag, Tania was a great ambassador for the breed, visiting with lots of people and lots of children, and showing the public that GSD can be civil, and well mannered. Iza, YOUR dog is a hoot. I know you are very proud, as you should be. I can't thank you enough for sharing her with us. Yes, she is YOUR dog when she wins too....LOL... Now I am going to do some fine tuning on MY dog and get ready for the next shows......you aint seen nothing yet!!!
