It is not secret that Tedi and I were encouraged by Larry and Hazel Parks at Wyndean Kennels. There can't be two greater people to start with, and I am not sure who would have taken time to talk to me if they hadn't. You need to encourage everyone you can, take time to talk to the strangers, and always say good things about others. Nothing can be gained by tearing down others, but it sure can be fun.
