Just received my June Review. I think that my mail-lady, Wendy, may have leafed through it. She is becoming a BIG GSD fan! The puppy on the front cover does appear to be a keeper, as has been commented upon on the Lists. Wonder if we will ever learn his identity? I saw that my boy has been promoted from IBC to IFC!! :-) :-) How fun is that?? He smiled when I showed it to him. Thank you, Susan and Purina!! Diane Silver-Strasser's article was wonderful. We DO agree on loving and appreciating all dogs and that all of us should be able to enjoy each and every aspect of the dog world as we see fit. Thanks, Diane. Nurmi's memorial ad brought tears to my eyes. I know Helen will have a hole in her heart forever. He was an amazing dog and they had such an amazing bond. Great job, Linda and Susan. Off to read the rest of the show results and Board minutes. For such a "small" magazine, it sure takes up a lot of my time!! Paula, 111 days and counting, but only 13 more working days until RETIREMENT!!!
