Why can't we make that dream come true? A GSD has so many venues. It would take 2 floats to cover them all. The look of eagles, service dogs, working dog, Gsd therapy dogs, herding, etc etc. they can do more than any other dog. I got upset at first when I saw the float then I realized it was a tribute to all working dogs. But sponsored by the King shepherd lady. I guess Carolyn is right, it will have to remain a dream. Hopefully not for long Can you imagine the exposure for our so very smart versatile GSD's?
