    The whole time, she was handling the puppy gently, speaking kind words, telling them "good boy" etc the whole time. (see Andrew's letter in thread) In all fairness, I agree and I will put out an apology to Wanda, I retract any negative comments about her, her status in the community of showing and handling of dogs, or in any way harm her reputation. But to everything and everyone there exists a personal and subjective viewpoint. I know that handling dogs 'unnaturally' but in a positive manner only helps with their adaptation of our lives that we subject them to….I agree with Basenjimanna, Sharon about Andrew's comment. I do not have much experience in show life. Yes, I have witnessed some dogs that thrive on it, and I have watched dogs that the owner is only in it for themselves, pride, and prestige and have little concern for the dog as an entity. (Show Dog-ing can open up a whole new forum), so I may not agree with EVERY aspect of showing dogs, but it does not make it immoral or unnatural or wrong for the dogs, just not for me, but on the other hand, I do enjoy watching the televised version of an AKC show.... Refer again to personal preferences and discussion forums, I am grateful to accept your perspectives as it has enhanced my understanding of how I can misjudge an intent (the video.) Thank you for the well written response. (yeah for forums and open minds....)

    Ok - sure. I know she's in the middle of moving right now - not certain where to, but the last I knew, has only until the end of the month & still has to fence the new yard & all. Maybe she had her link removed for that reason?

    @Sharla: Odin! He was a perfect match to our girl. We got 2 reds & 4 b/w. Therese has Halo and helped place the r/b with friends of theirs. I kept 2. r/w girl, Dolce' and Maximus. The other 2 boys are in local (san diego) pet/show homes. I loved meeting Therese & Kevin. I have learned lot from them and enjoy talking to them. When are you expecting??? Odin is a sweetie!!! Totally!!! and yes the Leimbacks are a credit to the breed and always ready to help people…. We are waiting for Kylie to come in season now... (it is like watching water boil....gggg) so we will most likely be expecting January 2009 babies....
