Only once or twice has a dog not remembered me right away. But in those
cases if we stand
and talk to the owner .... the dog always starts recognizing and remembering my
voice. You
can see the light come on .... and they start staring at me getting excited and
demanding pets.
We placed G.V. Bono with the Trocki's when he was four months old. Didn't see
him again for over
two years. When we were at the Canadian National .... and in that crowd, Bart
Bartley was coming
towards us outside the ring when Bono recognized us in the crowd, and he drug
Bart over to us.
Bono was so happy he dropped his toy and was dancing around demanding
pets.....then he picked
up his toy and tried to get us to play with him........<G> Bart got a kick
out of it as he knew exactly
what was going on when Bono started pulling him to us.
Truly an amazing Breed.

I’ve never had a dog that I bred that didn’t remember me years later… even my
voice over the phone.

Okay, what am I doing wrong? I have never to my memory had a dog that I bred

that bitch at two different shows and she does NOT know who the hell I am!
Maybe my puppies much like my ex- girlfriends WANT to forget me! Life is rough!

They all remember Tedi. I have seen dogs that leave here at two months old,
(the youngest we let them go), then see Tedi four or five years later, and are
crazy to see her.
A lot of them, like Ed's dog Teddy are so sound it often is difficult to know
if they just love everyone, or Tedi is special to them.
We sent a dog to a friend of ours in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and hadn't seen
her for six years. She went deaf, (my friend decided to use her for a
retriever and hunting dog), and while she did great, the shotgun didn't work
that well for her. She saw Tedi and went nuts. She is aloof with most people,
but six years later, Tedi was still her best friend. Paula knows who this
bitch is.
We have another dog in Ann Arbor, and she always remembers both of us.
This breed is amazing.
They do so much more that they often don't get credit for.
Me, not so much.

My Asgard dog, bred by Tedi and Evan, remembered them when he was nine months
old and again when he was two years old. He had not seen them at any other
time. I was amazed and curious about how this was possible, never experienced
that from any other dog that I owned or bred! Then yesterday Evan sent me an
email with several attached pictures of him sleeping in a large puppy box/bed
with seven or eight pictures ( very cool). So my theory is that Evan and Tedi
must do this as a routine with all their litters, therefore the very young
puppies imprint in their little brains the scents and sounds of the Ginsburgs !
My dog is now 4 and he has not seen Evan and Tedi for about two years! I'd
love to test my theory and see if he still remembers them!.... I'm betting that
he will remember them! Ed
