He finished fast, has got 13 BOB under his belt. We were waiting for him to mature before we really put him out there to special. This fall in a small show he really showed great, nice attitude, in fact best showing since he was a puppy. OK, we think he is ready to go back out. Now one of his best points is his head. Truly great male head and ear set, no mistaking this boy for a bitch ever. Two weeks ago, while we were gone, the kennel help let some fence fighting occur. During the fence fight the boy lost the tip of his left ear. I mean gone. About a quarter inch. To you judges out there, how big a problem is this? Would it affect your opinion? Thanks Oak If it is just the tip, no problem for me at all. Lee Brown **************Life should be easier. So should your homepage. Try the NEW AOL.com.
