He has proven that over and over again. He does not search the countryside for the best GSD he can find at all. He keeps the pipeline full of animals he "for whatever reason" decides to show and he knows he can win with it. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Your right Scott, Jimmy doesn't need to search all over for the dogs he shows, he is breeding them and YES there are some very nice ones. He then finds the BIG money clients to promote HIS breedings in the ring, just look at the catalogs.. We don't need to figure out one reason our GS entires are getting smaller. Jimmy has a interesting interview in the GSD Quarterly. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Vicki Von Charisma German Shepherds http://members.aol.com/VAbby17801/VCGShepherds.html ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
