Carolyn and Denise (and others) have personal experience of how much "errors" really mean to the individuals that are affected by them. It is the old "the error did not affect me personally so it can't be important syndrome..." How often that same mindset is seen in various issues that come up from time to time. For those who do not think it is "not all that", put yourself in Carolyn or Denise's shoes and has happened to me as well, so I know the importance of it. So before some of you jump on Kathleen for bringing this to the list, ask yourself how would you feel if it was your dog that was mis-named or the photo missing. There you are eagerly awaiting your copy of the Review to see your dog get the public acclaim for whatever accomplishment, and lo and behold, when you open the magazine, it is someone's else dog who is getting the acclaim. The other readers are looking at either a photo of your dog with someone's name attached to it, OR the photo and the name of the dog that went second or reserve or whatever. It sucks, people!!! and it is oh so disappointing; so it is a big deal! Pauline Pauline Moon www.ropajagsd.com Ropaja German Shepherds From: "Carolyn Martello" <marhaven@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ubject: The Review, The cover, The trophy & Stuff ate: Wed, 10 Feb 2010 12:18:56 -0800 I checked the trophy on the cover of this recent Review with the photo of BOSS ith the trophy n his photo and it is STILL the same Von Stephanitz trophy .......but this one as the handle broken ff. Really too bad. Sometimes things happen and sometimes you just can't fix the problem at the oment and have to o the best you can.....and I suspect that is what happened. he dog and the cover are beautiful!! hen they took the photos of our Grand Victrix Mar Haven's Black Orchid....NO NE had the V. S. rophy to even put IN the photo. It is a common looking picture as a result ith no Von Stephanitz rophy at all in the picture. We ended up putting her moving photo on the over because of that. ad the Von Sephanitz trophy arrived broken I would have GLADLY put the flowers loser on that ide and still at least have that gorgeous Historic trophy in the picture of our ew Grand Victrix!!!! G> egarding the Review.......what another disappointment of the size. It is so mall now I have to say agree with Kathaleen. I don't understand the volume of mistakes either for uch a small magazine. SPECIALLY with NATIONAL photos! aving had to complain about a couple of errors in the last few years I can say t never is quite the same o see a correction of your dog mis-named, completely missing or the wrong dog n the photo.... ( or..in ur case all three problems over time....<G> ) and then to see the correction wo or three months later. suspect those of you who think it is "no big deal" have not had it happen et. <G> Msg: #6 in digest ate: Wed, 10 Feb 2010 12:29:35 -0800 (PST) rom: Denise Williams <denwil2007@xxxxxxxxx> ubject: Re: The Review, The cover, The trophy & Stuff Imagine for the first time, as a newbie, having your dog go open dog, winners og, and BOS over specials, and having that omitted from the Review. The orrection was sent but never mentioned. That sure took the fun out of having he Review delivered to my house. enise W. he Good Ole Boys~Chopper and Chase ttp://www.showgermanshepherds.info or show and performance join my site ring-follow the link) ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2009.
