Hi All, Though I would pass along that the German Shepherd Dog booth at the AKC's Meet the Breeds this weekend took Herding Group 1st. Carolyn Gerganoff did a magnificent job of putting this booth together again this year and we had a lot of traffic as always as we are a crowd pleaser. I love doing this each year and talking to folks about our wonderful breed. I go in dog less, put hoping that maybe next year I will have a young one to take along with me. I would love to meet those of you on the list who are going to the National and I don't know. I will be the lady who will have her GSD's on, but will be carrying an Akita bag (my other breed) so if you see me say hi.
