Well said Jessica I feel terrible for Ron. Way to go people on encourage not discourage. Oh are we still doing that ? Its more discourage now a days. Ron should be on cloud 9 not on a gray stormy cloud. Go play with your dogs. Let the people who won in confirmation and performance enjoy their wins rather you think they deserved of not.

This GSD (white or whatever color) did more in the obedience ring this last week then many of you will ever accomplish outside of the breed ring. I find it very offensive that people feel the need to rain down on such an exciting thing - a dog and human performing together and a stellar feat.. Don't you people have something else to talk about. Let the owners of this dog enjoy it - whether they are on this list or not, I would be horrified at the treatment by my fellow GSD lovers (?)... And you all wonder why you are losing people in this breed... PERFECT example... Jessica MacMillan No Frills Dog Bathing Service & Design Paisley Dals (www.paisleydals.com) * Ch. Meribel, CA, CGC.
