On Memorial Day weekend His WD & RWD came out of the 12 - 18 class .? RWD is a Jamiroquai son/ out?of a Ch. Ivana Daughter.? FloB To: Ketchy@xxxxxxxxxx; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Mon, 11 Aug 2008 8:40 am Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes Really? I showed two dogs to him on Memorial day, and no we didn't win but I thought he was a gentleman, super with young dogs and very polite. The dogs he put up then did have a fair amount of rear, both had lovely side gait, BOTH are shown at Specialties too. In fact, his WD from the bred by class is a Yancy son who just needs one to finish...I would bring him a dog who wasn't oversized, nice side gait who was clean, coming and going. He doesn't mind rear at all and he's one of the few (I think) that sees proper layback of shoulder. He WILL reward a young dog and doesn't see only the Open/AM Bred Dog. I CAN see him getting put out when the applause is meant to influence, (you know, handler 'teams" whopping and hollering, NOT just honest applause for a star.....). Maybe your friend should have the baby prelimed. Just saying...we've all seen suspicious "bunny-hop" movement and wondered, haven't we? And, hopefully, it's just a stage, and although you want to get them out for some training, maybe under these all 'rounders isn't the place to be. You pay for their opinion and with some you'll get it. In fact, at the same cluster, different day, I watched a 9-12 bitch come at me and thought "ut-oh", how the heck did the owners miss that (??????), later to learn the judge told THAT handler, "I'd be worried about that front".

Surely something as important as the Illustrated Standard cant be rush in 2 weeks.........I don't think this is enough time for artists to submit their work. Sheesh.... mail services alone are a problem. I am no artist, but my children are, and they take pride, and time, with their work. We do have a lot of talented people in the membership, however with the e-mail system being so bad the last few days, most wont even see this notice for a few days. How about placing an ad in the Review? That will secure more artwork submissions. Just an observation, and maybe a suggestion, that the deadline needs to be extended. The next board meeting is not until the National, so there is really no rush. How that say goes.....everything worth it is worth waiting for? <G> And Thank You to you and your committee for taking on this task. Hopefully you get lots of assistance from the artist to make it what we all hope for. Ileana In a message dated 8/10/2008 11:51:23 A.M.
