Faithfully Yours,

I would be happy to assist with any project that could help collect data for
a book of GSD stories from the leaders of the breed over the years. I cannot
do the video, but I can help with typesetting and the like.

After I sent my post, I remember that Helen and Ann were two of the top
people I wanted to talk to, and include.  We do need to do something while
we can.  Hang in there Helen, someone younger than me should be able to do
the project.

Some of our very best club meetings were those where we had either Ann
Mesdag or Bob Penny talking about dogs and people of the past. 
Bob had the full video of the German Sieger gaiting that we have all seen
small parts of. He knew the back story. He talked about Lee Duncan and
people's reactions to Rin Tin Tin. He talked about great dogs he had met
both here and in Germany. He talked about temperament and trainability. We
flew him up several times for our temperament tests and the dinners were
always delightful.
Ann always had us all laughing so hard it would bring in all the employees
working the restaurant to see what was going on. She could tell stories like
no other. Theis would sit by quietly with a tiny smile and sometimes just
shake his head as Ann got a full head of steam going. 

How good it would have been to have them and the others on film. So much
history lost -

It was a
fun time and Lee asked if any of us knew Ann Mesdag.  Apparently   Ann
helped him picking out certain dogs to train  for Movies. . Of Course I  had
met Ann,because we'd had a Board  meeting out there in Seattle and Ann and
Theis had hosted the  Board,and then I had  also judged the National 
there,and stayed at Ann's  



We have to listen to those like Helen who can tell these stories.  I
remember talking to Bob Penny and he told me about handling dogs and
competeing with VonStephanitz' daughter.

It is a young breed and some of the more mature members, (I don't want to
mention names by I do get to talk to Tom and Vivian at class each Saturday),
can  share some interesting stories with us.

Thankfully we have interviews and articles.  A few years ago I was  going to
go video tape some of the interesting people in our breed. I wanted to  do
Cappy and Gloria, Ernie Loeb, Dave Rinke, Bob Penny, Jerry Guzman, Joan and
Fran Ford, Joan Fox, and so many more. I was going to do it at my own
expense. 

Then the Parent Club decided to take over the project and they assigned
someone to do it and were going to pay for it, and that person was to make
up his own list.  He had his own ideas of who to include, and so I backed
off.  I had no interest in getting involved in the conflict.  Nothing  ever
happened, and I have lost interest.  When Bob Penny, Ernie and  Joan died, I
realized that it should have been done.  But, then I felt  I no longer
wanted to take it on.

Maybe someone else could do it now.  Just two video cameras, and some  one
just talking would be great.  I wanted to take some weekend trips,  and also
do some work at the national.  My idea was just a conversation  about the
past, and maybe edit it to 20 minutes would do it.

We still have some of the pioneers of our breed alive.
