I had a litter some years ago that had a female that had looked promising at
12 weeks, and God awful at 6 months.. I tried everything in my power to
place her... I tried to give her away to anyone just so I wouldn't have to
keep feeding her (well, not quite, but you get my point)..
She was offered to many on this list who were looking at the time.. no
takers..
at 9 months, something happened.. (a magic wand???) at 11 months, she walked
into the ring and became a CH almost in a single weekend > including several
group 1sts and a Best Puppy in Show- she went on the become my second AM.CH.
just as easily..
What a gorgeous "swan" did this ugly duckling turn into!!!
She was AM.CH./CAN.CH./INT.CH Shadowacre's Signature File OVC

> I do know that our Grand Victrix Ruby WAS the one that "Got Away"..from
her breeder..Thankfully I saw her in time.
> Currin called me and said she had the litter of 7 out of Angie and Q. She
said she wanted to keep the one male only and did I want to come over and
see the pups. I told her I would be over to see them but I had a female
that was about to deliver. Our beautiful girl died 3 hours after she had
her C-Section and I was in such a state that I actually forgot about the
pups from Angie and Q. Currin then called me and said she was bringing the
last of the pups - 11 weeks old now, a girl and a boy, to our local show and
she wanted to sell the girl as she was "weird and long". Oh boy. I told
her that I was sorry I hadn't gotten over to see them, but I would
definately look at these as I LOVED Angie and it was My persistence to get
Angie pregnant to Q as she missed the 2 times before. Currin told me that
everytime people came to her house to buy this one girl, she would go sit in
the corner and not want touched. She got her out of the van...she took a
few steps..and - NO KIDDIN
> G - came right up to me kissing me. I had Currin gait her a few steps..I
looked at my freind Paula and we both agreed..she was coming home with me.
From that day, Ruby's temperament has been Fabulous, as was her Great Aunt
that we lost from the C-Section, and I wonder if her spirit...hummmm.
> BUT, That's not the only one, as Ruby's dad was sold to the Rowley's...why
he has Rowley at the end of his name, as a "starter show dog". I knew he
had potential, he was a lovely pup, but I had his brother , Quest, and 3
sisters....TOO Many. The Rowley's bought a new house and had to move into
an Apartment for a while so they asked me to take Quno back. I asked them
to stay on as Owners as it wasn't going to be long in the Apartment, but
they decided not to. He was a gangly, chunky, no angled, and definately NOT
looking too good when I got him back. But, when he moved...Ohhhh wow. I
decided to keep him. Quite a few people saw him at 7-9 mths old.
YUCKO-But, I still loved him.
> SO, HANGING in there .... and Luck... the best Advice. As I said. LOVE
your dogs first. Show them Second.
