Has anyone on the list ever heard of GV Bethesda's Tacoma of Si-Don ? If so
can you tell me anything about him and what kind of dog he was. Think he was
GV in 1989.
A dog we bred was the sire of Tacoma. Tacoma was a very dark dog, with a
good side gait. He was not a large dog, but well put together. I was
standing
outside the ring waiting to go in, and talking to Tacoma's owner.
She was a very nice young lady, and while a bit too conservative for my
tastes, a good person. She said to me, "Do you think this might be the year he
goes Select?" I think her name was Sid, and I always liked her. I miss her at
the shows, and she seemed to drop out after her win. She always had a joke
to tell. I did have to be careful not to be profane, as I so often am.
I was trying to be nice, and said, I didn't see why not, he was a good dog,
and I didn't think there was a favorite that year. I don't remember who I
was showing in Specials, but I remember being dressed up, so I was showing
something.
Tacoma's success was somewhat blemished because the judge who put him to GV
bought him after he won, (not right away as I recall, but during the year).
I never thought there was anything wrong with that, but a lot of people
bitched about it.
He was not a popular winner, but certainly worthy of the title.
