2010 USA Sieger Show, Lake Geneva WI. - Page 40

He did say follow but he also said something you know about, oh well that does not leave much so go follow a parked car.

Bye bye little man.

Maggie as much as i hate to agree with phil....... you dont have a clue about what a GSD. should be, Maybe you should get gold fish it seems like its more your speed!!

Well Phill, here I am ( I am a very calm person but you keep dragging me into this)
I swore I would never come on this board and write a thing, but I have gotten so many phone calls from friends that have had enough of you that it has to come to this.
I did not bother to read all of the 20 pages of comments, although I am aware that somewhere you claim that the dog in question and the one that I trained for the sieger show was obviously out of shape and not worthy of winning the VA1 title.
I'll get to that later.

First thing is the remarks you made about me being bit, you are making everyone believe that the dog bit me on purpose,
let me help you get your facts straight, since I was there and the whole thing happened to me!!! Not you!
If you recall the dog did not have an incident prior to the kennel group, that means that for three days leading up to the kennel group he had showed no signs or warning that would have led me to believe that he should not be anywhere near the other studs.
You say that you were there and I know that you saw me many times with him. Now comes the part where you bend the truth, when Titan entered the kennel group he was already a bit hyped up and he seemed tense, could have been all the excitement or the heat. It's no secret that he was pissed off at the other studs (he's 3 yrs old, thinks he is on top of the world, a young stud with testosterone to spare).. Unfortunately the kennel group consisted of him and another 3 just like him.
When titan began to growl at the other males, Julie felt it would be better if I handled him instead of the person handling him, since he lives with me and if anyone could calm him down it would have to be me. The call should have been made just a bit sooner because when I went in to grab Titan he was already  upset. I grabbed him from the cheeks to calm him down but accidentally got a hand in his mouth, he turned around because he did not know who had just grabbed him, and I could see he was pissed off!! When I took  him away to calm him down I noticed blood on my hand and on my jacket, but it was not from a bite, when I got my hand caught in his mouth his tooth scraped my hand, but since I had just ran for about a half hour, my blood was pumping and blood gushed out. It's science trust me.

So you and everyone else saw blood and thought I had been bit, but if you were there when I got ice to clean it up you would have seen that it was just a small scrape. I washed the blood away and got back into the group I kept my distance for safe measure. He remained upset for a while,but nothing that would make the judge worry.

Yep its a POS!!! It should be culled from the gene pool........

Faq - what a GSD "should be" ?? - LOL      No, you do not have a Clue as to what a GSD is !    
       

I've attempted to explain to you in the past, Maggie, the inverse relationship between the likelihood of dogs that have been trained to bite in specific, controlled circumstances biting without provocation and that of dogs without said training doing so.  If what you maintain is true, police dogs, who are arguably both harder and sharper than your typical schutzhund competitor by necessity, would be a huge liability and certainly could never be trusted to be paraded through elementary schools...and yet they are.

I have been made aware that you are asking to see my hand, I am not going to show you anything.
I have the proof in my home and I am not about to play these little games with you.

As far as your comments about the way that Titan showed and looked on Sunday, that is just your opinion.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, you think he looked like crap, and I thought he was in great shape and looked good enough to be VA1.
We disagree.

That is all I have to say. My life revolves around my 3 children not this chat board.
Do not expect to hear from me again, this was a waste of my time.

Eddie Calderon

 Saw the puncture, saw the blood.....watched the dog loose it in the kennel group and after and watched ed drag his off field on two feet  gagging. Who wrote this letter, not Ed?

Maggie in your mind you might be right. I don't think a GSD should be aggressive to other dogs or its handler because of heat, or other dogs because of testosterone or that it is ONLY 3 years old, that is only excuses for sh*t temperament!!!! There is no willingness to work for anyone and i think the GSD is a working dog !!! If you want to keep your dog in a kennel and look pretty and do nothing else please keep it away from everbody else!!!
