Hi everyone. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. I just wanted to catch up with a few things. First off, I put a card in the mail to Evan today sending him well wishes and also to let him know that so many people on the List thought highly enough of him to vote him as the "GSDC Person of the Year!" I'm sure he'll get a kick out of that. Once he or his wife lets me know which Rescue or Shelter they'd like to use the winning money for, I will contact the rest of you generous people who contributed. Also thank you for those who answered and shared your thoughts with me on my e-mails about "Southern Dogs" and "JMHO". Sometimes it's hard for me to answer each and everyone of you, so I forward this kind of "thank you!" I do appreciate your kind words and knowledge that you share. Congratulations to Sue Witmer on her newest champion! Here's hoping for a successful New Year for all of us! Best wishes, Barbara -- Barbara J.
