I had the opportunity to photograph a couple of Breed Specialties on Friday including the Gulfstream Rottweiler Club of Miami and the Cocker Spaniel Club of Southeastern Florida. One of the joys of photographing "my own" breed, Rottweilers, is that I occasionally get the chance to photograph a dog I own or have bred. Such was the case on Friday where Brody (Ch Annihaus Idol Aiken Breakin' Heart) took an Award Of Merit in Best Of Breed competition. Here's his picture.
Just as a matter of comparison, here's a picture of Brody (on the right) with his sister, Bella, at 8 weeks of age.
Certainly, Brody has grown up to be a big, very pretty boy and we're proud of that. But his temperament is as beautiful as his conformation. He spent the entire time prior to Best Of Breed competition, sitting on either my lap or Linda's licking our faces and only wanting to be held. He's sweet, smart and very pretty. What more could a breeder ask for?
