Judge: Mr. James R. White 1 dog, 2 bitches, 2 male Specials I will not guarantee my markings at this show, but, they can't be too far off and I do guarantee Harley's results! Judging was way too early in the morning, I was quite distracted, as well as suffering from my usual showtime jitters, and tried to pay attention and mark my catalog. WD and BOW - I think, Sam Israel's homebred 9-12 pup, Canaan's I'm Your Man WB and BOS - I think, Mike Goodwin's and J.R. Alcantara's Canta-Stone Rydge Lil Kim RWB - I think, Susan Clark's Debrut N Klimik's Daisy Cutter, PT Best of Breed - Harley Select Dog - Janis Calkins', Gloria Birch's, Cappy Pottle's, and Maryanne Cox' Covy Tucker Hill's Kean Marc Flash Drive Harley went on to a nice Group IV under judge Mrs. Lee Canalizo, who hugged him at photo time and said she needed a GSD "fix". She misses her dog at home.....a GSD, of course!! It was cooler than I expected, just getting home from steamy hot Texas! Luckily I had an old sweatshirt jacket in the car. Lompoc is a really nice little coastal community, way off the beaten path. They had hound specialties this week and I have never seen so many of them in one place!! I got to meet and chat with Mike Goodwin. We had never met in person, though we have e-mailed back and forth. Also chatted a bit with Theresa Royer, always a total class act! We had mischievous fun in NYC at Westminster and I always enjoy seeing her.
