It breaks my heart to report the passing of Tina Bogdanich's "Spencer" nearly 13 years old ...Am/Can Ch Adelhunds Class Act. Spencer was one of the most wonderful dogs and he, Tina & I shared so many memories. 44 Breeds, several Group 1s, AOM at Eukanuba, and 3 appearances at Westminster. I think I can remember every single time I went in the ring with Spencer. He had a wonderful life and certainly made ours better... Spencer was certainly responsible for Tina and I coming into each other's lives. I remember when we took Spencer to Canada to finish his Can Ch and the 3 of us camped in Tina's "pop up camper". Although I was most definitely not engineered for this type of stay<vbg>, we had one of the best weeks of our lives driving all over Ontario to various show sites, laughing at me praying for one of the Hilton's to come rescue me. I also remember when we took Spencer to the big Canfield Ohio shows and he won a huge Best of Breed under Lew Bunch. Although Spencer had so many great Group wins etc, this was so special for Tina and she still talks about it today. I could keep going with hundreds of wonderful stories... Spencer loved to go to dog shows and knew he was special. And now I know he is up at the Rainbow Bridge keeping all the other GSD's in line.
