Out of the many wonderful breeds there are the extremely special ones. And the German Shepherd Dog ranks in that category. I've had this breed since 1967. There hasn't been one bad GSD in my life so far. When I've trained, showed and walked my shepherds every place imaginable I constantly get stopped and asked about this breed. I'm always proud to tell those that ask everything about them. Most of the time when walking away they say, "I would like to have a GSD some day." Or I'll hear about the wonderful GSD that they once had in their life. When I was a young girl all I could see was this breed. What makes someone like my self only see that look? I believe it's because I saw the TOTAL package. And when we have to say goodbye to one of those precious souls, "Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation." - Kahlil Gibran German Shepherds are my addiction. They make me laugh. They comfort me. They get take me places I would've never gone. They protect me. They teach me many things. They make me proud. They humble me, and yes; they make me cry. --Kathy Sater Partch 2015 www.JoKaySedona.com <http://www.jokaysedona.com/> >Msg: #11 in digest Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2015 14:39:47 -0500 From: "Evan Ginsburg" <dmarc-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> (Redacted sender "elg440@xxxxxxx" for DMARC) >We can ask nothing more of the breeders, and from my perspective, you are doing a great job. Those who can't recognize that, need to consider their own character, that is where the problem lies. Evan
