In the beginning....
I had the great fortune of meeting Mr. & Mrs. A.C. "Red" or Arnold & Ruth Lane
(Summit Lane Kennels), of Cape Cod, Mass when I was 11 years old. I spent that &
many summers riding my bike to their kennel every day to play with  (they called it
socialize) their puppies. They gave me the greatest gift at the end of the first summer,
pick of any dog in their kennel.  I chose a Sheltie pup. He became multi HIT Can Ch.
Summit's Shenandoah Am/Can CDX, Berm CD "Shane". There will never be another.  
He finished his Can CDX with a 199.5 ++. He was such a good boy! The Lanes were
wonderful, patient teachers/mentors & the greatest thing to happen to an 11 year old
kid who loved dogs..  

Our first show, Shane was 6 months                                                 Taking a CKC Working
I was 11 yrs old                                                                       Group 1 in Ottawa ?'71
