You left a few good ones out like: Carl Carroll, Ed Bates, Russ Meyers just to name a few. If these two where on here I'd choose Mr. Carroll because hes done alot for the english breed.

Mike,

I am talking about all around most popular---when you think of one man that would symbolize the sport.

My commitee is working on a honorable mentioned list right now.....

a good arguement could be made for most of the names on that list. I would say the most popular to each person depends on the breed they favor. All are definetly deserving of acknowledgement.

when you say most popular World Wide, I don't see how you can leave Dale Brandenburger off of your list. Dale has probably sold more dogs in Japan alone than some of these guys have sold in their own State.

There are other names that come to mind also, like:::::::::

Mr. Hershberger

Herb Carsten who started Finley River Chief on his road to fame.

The Von Plotts

Elbert Vaughn

And how can anyone forget about Mr. O. L. Beckman

There were some more awfully popular guy's in the past, that were Breeders & backers of Redbones, Black & Tans, & English also.

My vote would be between James Merchant & Dale Brandenburger.
