Sherry is a friend of mine and I have seen her with her dogs, agonize over her dogs and have seen the joy on her face when she talks about her dogs. When I started reading the posts about this situation I wanted to learn more. Read the kennel name and then knew better that this girl was dumped in a rescue. I went to the website and saw that Sherry may not have put the info about a Jr. home, BUT she did put her name as owner, her phone number and her e-mail address. This was not anonymous. I appreciate policing our own BUT a simple call or e-mail to her would have solved this potential lynching via e-mail. Fancy is fine and at home. Sherry is simply doing what many of you have done when you have a breeding program. Finding a nice home for a dog that may just want to be the top dog. Many of you said so yourself today and I have read many e-mails in the past on this very subject.

I am Fancy's owner she is a retired Champion. Because she is retired I felt she deserved to have a home of her own rather then being a kennel dog. SHE IS NOT IN RESCUE SHE IS A REFERRAL I am screening potential homes very carefully & actually am hoping to find someone with an interest in Jr. Handling since she is already trained. That is why she is listed as a breed champion. Let me repeat: FANCY IS NOT IN RESCUE If I do not find what I consider an outstanding home she has a home with me. I was just trying to do what was best for the dog. SHERRY MCKINNON LONESTAR GERMAN SHEPHERDS ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
