I must not be getting all the posts, because I didn't see any nastiness The work that has to go into putting this together has to be immense I have thanked Helen over and over for putting this together I noticed the mistakes, and figured if the title said AOE, it was implied that a working title and a TC, and a select excellent were achieved. As dogs keep getting titles, the pages are going to have to get longer...lol. I am proud of our DEXTER on his AOE, and thank you Helen and the Parent Club for the recognition. And thank you Iza for sharing him with us. Its been a wonderful ride. Now, off to towel dry him and his son again. Ileana In a message dated 12/8/2013 6:43:05 P.M.

Please see the ads. The names of the dogs take up the whole line in the magazine, and the titles should have been under the names as submitted to the Review. As far as the Select picture of Ch Knaufhills Thriller V Kenlyn "Venetia", once again, the Review is not to blame. Checking further, I received a picture of a printed picture from a magazine of Venetia in motion the end of July. It was not suitable for reprint and I did send it to the Review (but made a copy) suggesting the Review use her Select picture due to the very poor quality of what I had received. Nothing takes away from the TITLE AOE.... AWARD OF EXCELLENCE.........as all these dogs are...............
