Ch. Alpha's Madam I'm Adam × Ch. Alpha's Fare Thee Well
This is the second-prize-winning entry in the Meijer® Incredible Dog contest in February, 1999:
Because "everybody loves Gracie!":
Why Gracie Is Incredible (in 75 words or less)
Residents at both nursing homes she's visited since she was a puppy,
People she meets doing search and rescue with Southern Ohio Search and Rescue Dogs,
Judges who made her an AKC champion, Companion Dog, and Canine Good Citizen,
Me, when she acts as an assistance dog to help me stand, let me lean on her, or pull my wheelchair.
But mostly, she's our very dear friend!
