This is a picture of me with my three girls, Hannah, UD; Daisy UD; and Abbie, UD. 

I got Abbie as a 10 week old puppy in October of 1986. She was terribly shy and ran from us.  I was able to meet both her parents; her father was red and very friendly; her mother a blue and skittish. As I had never seen a red Doberman before, we cornered the cute little pup and took her home.  I was  so proud of Abbie for getting a UD!  She had to get so brave!

I lost my Abbie in August of 1999 at 13 years old.

I got Hannah (Shelane's Midnite Silhouette, UD) as a five month old puppy whose owner did not have time for her.  She was a happy loving puppy. Little did I know she would never grow up! She remains happy and silly! It was a real challenge to train Hannah.  She loved the training but when we got to a strange environment (like a show!) she didn't want to leave my side, making go out's very unlikely! 

Hannah is currently 10 years old.
