I had some great working dogs back then! But I was always fascinated by the look of the American Show GSDs...I wanted both! a top Schutzhund dog that was an AKC Champion! Lyn was a great mentor...never did achieve my goal, sometimes life gets in the way, My grandmother used to say , you cant chase two rabbits at the same time!, hope the picture of Degan comes through Ed ===========================================================================POST is Copyrighted 2015.
