..... Séamus- The Breeder-Judges' Dog ..... Frequently noting his soundness, balance, bone and headpiece, Séamus was repeatedly awarded honors by breeder-judges including: L Michelle Lewis
- 2003 DPCA National Host Club Show- Best 15-18 month Doberman. Thank you to all the breeder/judges who have honored us with their recognition of Séamus' qualities! |

|
..... Séamus- The Therapy Dog ..... Now retired from life in the spotlight, Séamus has been certified through Therapy Dogs International. In addition to multiple visits with children at an autistic kids camp, he regularly helps kids learn to read at area libraries. Children who are embarrassed to read in front of adults due to their poor reading skills, will gladly read to a dog, as the dog will not judge or correct them. This builds the child's self confidence and desire to improve his/her reading skills. |

July 24, 2005...Stuck on the interstate for 3-1/2 hours due to a tractor trailer accident, Séamus entertained two van-loads of children on a Church-sponsored weekend outing with obedience signals, tricks and games of catch. Afterwards, the girls in the group hung out with Séamus on the roadside in an attempt to cool off. |
