|  6 Sterling: King of the Mountain 19 monts old here
One of my favorite pictures of Sterling, except there was a leash in the shot. Tracey Kallas (K2 Rat Terriers) edited the leash out for me, and did an amazing job.

 7 King of the Mountain: Pre-Edit Here's that shot, with the leash still there. It really takes away from Sterling's appearance. I am SO impressed with Tracey's work on this. Thanks Tracey!
