"The Good Shepherd"
(soft pastel)
    I found my German Shepherd dog and most trusted friend, Leben, all nestled up with a new found calico kitten that we had just rescued from a restaurant on what turned out to be one of the coldest days on record in Michigan (New Years Day, 1990). One warmer day shortly thereafter, I opened  my front door and found them together in blissful peace as if they had known each other for years. Leben was only a year and a half at the time and I had worked hard to teach him to be kind and gentle to his own cat, Onyx, as well as children and other living things. He has since deceased but his displays of human-like compassion such as for this stray kitten now make up some of my most cherished memories of his life.   -Suzanne 

"The Good Shepherd" was featured on the cover of  the Winter,
1997-98 issue of The German Shepherd Quarterly Magazine.
