Bio... hummm what can I say about me that hasn't already been said or I've been called! I started in German and Australian Shepherds in the 70s in obedience and herding.  Since then I've finished a number of dogs in both breeds and have titled almost all of them in one performance event or another.  I've never really actively campaigned a Special but always have a class dog out there somewhere and can tout multiple specialty wins and three generations of BIS winners [one from the classes] in GSDs all with performance titles!  I believe in functionality in both breeds.  I am active in my GSD parent club and several local clubs, both specialty and performance, and have held multiple Board positions in most of them.  I generally judge at the specialties but am on hold to apply for additional breeds once I get another AB assignement to get a good rep review in my file!
