A Breeder's Formula
Posted 07-02-2008 at 02:10 PM by Katie1
A Breeder [with a capital B] is one who thirsts for knowledge and never really knows it all, one who wrestles with decisions of concscience, convenience and commitment.
A Breeder is one who sacrifices personal interests, finances, time, friendships, fancy furniture and deep pile carpeting! She gives up the dreams of a long, luxurious cruise in favour of turning that all important Show into this years "vacation".
The Breeder goes without sleep [but never without coffee!] in hours spent planning a breeding or watching anxiously over the birth process, and afterwards, over every little sneeze, wiggle or cry. The Breeder skips dinner parties because that litter is due or the babies have to be fed at eight. She disregards birth fluids and puts mouth to mouth to save a gasping new-born, literally blowing life into a tiny, helpless creature that may be the culmination of a lifetime of dreams.
A Breeder's lap is a marvellous place where generations of proud and noble champions once snoozed. A Breeder's hands are strong and firm and often soiled, but ever so gentle and sensitive to the thrusts of a puppy's wet nose.
A Breeder's back and knees are usually arthritic from stooping, bending, and sitting in the birthing box, but are strong enough to enable the Breeder to Show the next choice pup to a Championship.
A Breeder's shoulders are stooped and often heaped with abuse from competitors, but they're wide enough to support the weight of a thousand defeats and frustrations.
A Breeder's arms are always able to wield a mop, support an armful of puppies, or lend a helping hand to a newcomer.
A Breeder's ears are wondrous things, somethimes red [from being talked about] or strangely shaped [from being pressed against a phone reciever], often deaf to criticism, yet always fine-tuned to the whimper of a sick pup.
A Breeder's eyes are blurred from pedigree research and sometimes blind to her own dog's faults, but they are ever so keen to the competitions faults and are always searching for the perfect specimen.
A Breeder's brain is foggy on faces, but it can recall pedigrees faster than an IBM computer. It's so full of knowledge that sometimes it blows a fuse: it catalogues thousands of good bonings, fine ears, and perfect heads....and buries in the soul the failures and the ones that didn't turn out.
The Breeder"s heart is often broken, but it beats strongly with hope everlasting...and it's always in the right place! Oh, yes, there are breeders, and then there are BREEDERS!!!

Yes, and don't forget the breeder brushes right up to the last second, hoping the judge won't see that ONE STRAY hair that's out of place.
We go to many a dog show, although we don't show our AKC GSD.Posted 07-26-2008 at 09:40 PM by _redbird_

I agree that there are lots of online reading tools that teachers and students. I prefer to regard myself as a student. I love the guidance required for learning English and I usually watch some speeches on it. I think it is great from an intermediate English learner’s perspective because I can observe how those successful speakers presented,
However, in my understanding, teaching is not limited for grammar learners; it is also for learners who have already finished. I found at [URL="http://educationalfun.com"][COLOR=windowtext]http://educationalfun.com[/COLOR][/URL] a reading program that is both fun and effective in teaching children at an early age learn how to read.
Thanks a lot
