Just like a fine wine ...
... Echo's conformation, wisdom, and presence improves with every year.
We love her so!

I offer my heartfelt thoughts to the following people who shared in a big part of Echo's life:

Ket Ayling, (Sudahr Dobermans)
~ for breeding Rainy to Journey and producing our "little Red-Haired Girl" (Charlie Brown);
and for always supporting and believing in Echo & me;

Elaine Hopper, (Starlaine Dobermans)
~ for proving, through your obsessively indignant actions, that "content of the ego may change;
the mind structure that keeps it alive does not", (Eckhart Tolle);

Teresa Ross, (Icon Dobermans)
~ for time and belief in Echo; laughter & travel memories; entrusting me to assist & practice on your client dogs;
and for teaching me to make the perfect Tequila Sunrise;

Michelle Perfect, (Perfex Dobermans) & Oscar
~ for giving it your best shot and offering us a second try :)

Tammy Markey, (Electron Dobermans) & Carson
~ for really getting to 'know' us, insisting that 'everything happens for a reason',
and for Echo's first breeding;

Cathy Ceely, (Emerald Dobermans) & Gunther
~ for friendship, bringing clarity, sharing alligator skin, reveals, and for Echo's second breeding ...

Todd Babbitt, (Super Hero)        
~ for encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone; helping me to accept that failing is not 'bad', but an opportunity to strive for 'better'

Jesus Christ, (Lord & Savior)
~ for hope, enlightenment, forgiveness, peace, and a place in heaven for all canine loved ones.
