"Stella" is owned by Barb Booher of Sonnenschein GSPs and widely known in GSP circles as "one of the gang." She keeps four adult shorthairs in line on a daily basis and attends National Specialty shows to cheer her brothers and sisters on in competition. Stella has the cutest mug we've ever seen so we felt obligated to include her in our GSP "family" album. For all intents and purposes she thinks ... no ... she
knows she is really a German Shorthair in a
French bulldog body. You go girl!

Shomberg's Jolly Holly By Golly
(click image for a larger view)
An original oil portrait appropriately named
Holly On The Oriental, by artist Emily Sloviko, has beautifully captured the spirit and the essence of her own beautiful German Shorthair, Holly, in a quiet moment as she lay on a rug in the morning's light. Emily is well known in this area for her exceptional talents in oil portraiture and is featured in numerous local art exhibits and shows where her work is admired and showcased.
This exquisite painting was a labor of love and most surely will be a treasured piece in her collection as the years pass. Holly is the shorthair whose lovely headstudy was chosen by the Danbury Mint to be featured on one of their limited edition plates in a collection devoted to our breed. Emily chose Holly just because she's her special girl and that says it all.
