When I first met John it was in North Carolina at a big Spec. show there in the early 90's. I handled a Special bitch, "Ch. Kridler's Sweet Sunshine" who was a SUPER moving bitch, the judge that day didn't know me for adam and he told the crowd he liked both bitch Specials a lot but he went with the other well known handler of course. Anyway when I walked out of the ring CRYING and bitching saying, "THESE DAM JUDGES IF THEY WOULD ONLY LOOK AT THE DOG".. then JOHN DEHOPE comes up to me, puts his arm around me and says, " HONEY NOT ALL JUDGES ARE LIKE THAT" he made me feel good that day. John will be missed.... Vicki Burkey Von Charisma German Shepherds http://members.aol.com/VAbby17801/VCGShepherds.html In Memory of.. Ch.
