> I too was at CRB same time. My dogs were Flash and George (a female). Flash had to be put-down, just plain ole eat up with all kinds of internal stuff. Later I tried to get in on Heino, that wasn't to be be, not in my life time, so THANK GOD FOR GEORGE being available. I don't know for sure, but I believe Heino and Devil are one in the same. Heino was the meanest thing on 4-legs I ever saw. One reputation Heino had, (do not know if true) is out of x-amount of handlers he bit, turned on, almost all of them. Could this be the same HEINO!!??
Good luck Freddie.
