In Hie Oakville Beaver's (C o n tin u e d fro m p a g e B 1 ) For a time Edwards bred Goldens in an effort to close the gap. Aside from the training and compe­ titions, Edwards travels as a judge and will offer a judging clinic for the Canadian Kennel Club in April. He loves the people he meets. "I'll meet somebody who lives in Nebraska and I'll get an invitation to hunt there. We all have the same thing in com­ mon and there are people from all walks of life." In the dog world, Edwards is a name known to many, though they've never met him. To be successful requires patience and experience, paying your dues, he says. The ribbons are nice but it's the satisfaction of having watched Bartley reach his potential that pleases Edwards. Edwards knows the day will come when he'll lose him. He and his wife have already talked about how they'll salute his life. Bartley will be cremated and every time Edwards travels, a few of his beloved dogs ashes will be put in the first hunting shell, so a little bit of this very special champion will be left where he captured titles and won hearts.

I've had a great time with him." study, conducted by Kubas Consultants Sheridan College Trafalgar Campus students Tess Bouchard, Kevin Chemey, Nieval Kankam, Denise Korski, Goro Nagaoka and Dwainia Grey are hosting a fundrais­ ing Pasta Dinner and Silent Auction at the Towne Restaurant, 467 Speers Rd., on Friday March 19th to raise funds for the St. John Ambulance.
