I
would like to thank the membership for giving me this "exciting" opportunity.
Except
for being a little numb from the dampness, cold and rain showers, I was
truly
disappointed to see the day end. I would like to thank Deslye Treglown,
Show
Chairman, her committee, and the rest of the members of the GSDC of
Washington
State for their co-operation and hospitality. Most importantly the
exhibitors
for the depth of quality presented to me. Although I left my
recorder
at the motel, it was very easy to remember these beautiful animals.
BEST
OF OPPOSITE SEX FUTURITY: Junior Dog Class - Jaccar-Rivendell's Brando
Sire: Ch.Rivendell's George Michael X Hawks Nest Tanner Breeder/Owners:
Jack & Carol Macri and Jennifer & Paul Root
This
is an exciting you black and tan male, with correct movement, good
temperament,
and in great condition. Nice shoulder opening and solid back.
Moved
with a good topline and has a good head piece. Never changed motion
when
presented on a loose lead. Handled nicely by Bill Tank. This young
guy
should
have an exciting future. Brando also went Best Puppy the next day.
BEST
IN FUTURITY: Senior Bitch Class - Ch. Lebarlands Savannah
Sire:
Ch. Aztecs Kodak X Caralons Queen of Hearts Breeder: Tim Trapp Owner:
Don
and Judy James
When
this gorgeous young lady stepped into my ring she gave me major league
goose
bumps. From beginning to end never took a wrong step. Dark
black and
tan,
very feminine she moved with extension, feet close to the ground and has
an excellent
back. Watching her on a loose lead was spectacular. What a
career
ahead! Presented emotionally and to perfection by Tim Trapp.
BEST
IN MATURITY:Senior Maturity Bitch - Aramist's Ivana of Kolbrook
Sire:
Ch. Balsams Fire N Rain X Kolbrooks D'Espirit Breeder: Donna Calabrese,
Anne
Brogden & George Berstler. Owner: Donna Calabrese and Jane Dancosse
I never
thought last year's Futurity Victrix could get better but she has.
A
beautiful
black and tan, feminine young lady who covers ground with extension
and
an iron back. She was presented in excellent condition, has a great
temperament
and ring presence. I believe her best days are still ahead of
her.
Beautifully presented by Patty Breault.
BEST
OF OPPOSITE SEX MATURITY: Senior Maturity Dog Class - Ch. Kanstens
Ducati Sire: Leiter's Firecracker X Kanstens Mahogany Breeder/Owner: Nancy
Hubbell
In my
mind, this is the picture of a German Shepherd male. Masculine head
piece,
short coupled with substance he moved easily, with his feet close to
the
ground. Excellent temperament, a back of iron, and shown in great
condition.
His presence in the ring was one of confidence and desire. I'm
looking
forward to his future success. Presented with determination by Jerry
Guzman.
Congratulations
to all the breeders and owners, it was truly a memorable
experience.
