Hi, Sandra,
Well done on Saturday. I NEVER sneer at a point after watching my
husband show eleven shows for his last point on our first champ after
getting his majors fast. It was painful.
I'm sorry for the loss in your family; I do find that our breed is very
empathic about our needs. They do, indeed, make super therapy dogs.
Congratulations!
Suze
