I spent last evening with Daphane's daughter who met with one of the old timers. She had sold a Rin Tin Tin puppy to Dorothy's great grandmother. She had wonderful stories of him and other dogs of 50 to 60 years ago. Then they brought one of the new Rin Tin Tin dogs over. A good looking old style dog, a silver sable. The trainer of him and also the current Lassie were there. I got a disc of all the pictures, etc. I will turn it over to the club. This too is a part of our history. They are all here for the animal awards today. It is another world, and I had a great time. But, I didn't get home early and had to fly out to Oakland today for a conference for clients. I got back in time to get into the office. I need the dog shows this weekend to relax. Evan L.
