This is a late brag, as we had to stop in Albuquerque on our way back home and just arrived home this evening. Our boy, Elvaston's Ashbourne went WD and then BOS at the Pike's Peak GSDC in Colorado Springs this Sunday, which gave him a four point major and finished him. We are SOOOO very thrilled and want to thank judge Dalene Mcintire for his major and finishing points...also judge Edwina Trocki for his first major...and to Bill Tank for starting him out on the right track and to Kathy and Ken Tank for taking him in and putting his first major and multiple points on him and especially to Sergio Espejo for sticking with him and waiting him out until he finally matured. We had an awesome time and would like to let everyone know that the Pike's Peak GSDC puts on a wonderful show..great people,,,great times....and a great experience all around. Many Thanks to YOU ALL!! John & Ellen Penington El Dorado German Shepherds www.eldoradogsd.com ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
