Nice Bob. Love the pics.

BlackT,
                  Thanks for asking, a good question, .......Sharon's dog Sam is very heavily
line bred for work. He is a typical Israeli armed forces Canine corp type. They are super dogs
but, you wont see a lot of breeding's, to Sam. He is SG and has probably been
Maxed out on Orry. No pun intended.

I made a brief commit to allow other especially breeders, to take a look.
My only interest is..... can the dog do the work, to which I say YES!! This is a
dog I would choose to compete with.

Note... the other thing is Vom Haus Iris is an excellent working line on the bitch's side.

Max do you live in California?

SP,
          Not any more, .........I miss the produce from California,....... The tomato's I buy  here are nasty where I live.
 I'll have to do some gardening. Grow my own tomato's.

I have a nice sized garden and my tomato plants are almost 6 feet tall with tons of tomato's probably more than we can eat.

SP,
        Rub it in..........I tried last year and got no where, , but I'll will try again.
Tomatoes are a main stay of my diet.

SP:  My tomatoe plants bit the dust way back in June as the drought here was horrible..I could not keep them going..the 100* heat and not one drop of rain for 6 weeks was tough.. Then we got rain but too late...now we are back to 107*  days  everything I own outside even in shade on porches and patio are scorched..my well water is ice cold...so you have to water in segments while it is a norm temp..I draw water in 4 gallon buckets and let sit to warm the water...lot of work I couldnt do this year...so I go to farmers market or roadside stands once a week for tomatoes , squash...etc..these big farmers south of me have irrigated fields so they are up to it..I just cannot drag water and keep it this year...next year I may plan a different scheme of things.'

Tomatoes are my mainstay..low alkaline with lemons and watermellon and greens and onions..I tried onions too and they whitered away........  so   yes  store bought stuff is sickening.

BlackT,
                I notice that Sam's mother is different on PDB,...than on Working Dog EU

I would go with Working dog EU.....Sharon is advertising there for Sam as a Stud in Germany.


Another thing I like about Bob's breeding, is Fado's mother....who was a fantastic producer of working dogs.  May be not
looks, that will have to be answered by some one other than me.

I am big into salads right now with all the garden goodies have to get this stuff eaten before it rots.

My water melons are doing awesome about basketball sized right now and we have some time yet to grow. Mt tomato's are just about ripe, we have picked 3 I think. Man the plants are huge. They are easily double last years.

Sorry for getting off topic. Carry on my friends.

All this talk of tomatoes.  I'm a terrible gardener.  I've killed the heartiest of plants inside my house  and I have a front walk with a gorgeous concrete planter on it that sits full.....of dirt.  As my husband says, I start off great, but my follow through sucks.  I plant Petunias in the planter at the front walk almost every spring and every year by mid July they are dead.  All is good until the kids and I go away for a week and no one waters.  Plus with bringing two new puppies in this year I thought I had best not do anything to tempt them,  ha ha.  I always say I'm going to try again next year, and next year never comes.  I end up not doing it in favour of spending summer at the lake with the kids.  Even trade off I guess.

BOB.....those doggies are GAWJUS.  I love love loooooove them all.  Beautiful to look at, and I love a real working doggie.
