Helen..I disagree in part..I was told a long time ago..a great dog makes a handler..from the time of Lance..Jimmy has been provided great dogs..dogs with the kennels with such names as Fran-Jo..Altana's, Windwalkers, Bramblewood, Kismet, CTH, and many many others there have also been many great dogs he has not handled that also have left their mark on the breed and been great ambassadors for the breed...the dogs he handled were testimonial to the breeders..not just the handler. yes..he prepared the them and they were well trained, well groomed and well promoted and presented to perfection..but he did not create the raw material, it was provided to him.In turn this breed has given him fame in the dog world and provided him with a hefty salary for years..more than he may have been afforded had he worked in the "real " world.. In my eyes..he should bow and kiss the ground that these breeders and great dogs have walked on..without them he would be no one.
