Letter to the Editor:
With the release of the movie "Dog"starring Channing Tatum, the Belgian Malinois Community is afraid of the consequences. After the Dalmation movies many dogs ended up in shelters or worse. My dog trainer Stewart Hilliard was sent to France in 1984 to observe the dogs who were working with the French Tactical Police (SWAT). Hilliard brought four back for breeding and I have had three over the last 37 years. Hilliard is in charge of Malinois breeding at Lackland AFB and attained his doctorate over 20 years ago. The premiere of the movie was at Lackland in a hanger with Hilliard in attendance. If one googles behind the scenes of the movie Dog, there is a lot of good K-9 and Channing footage.

Letter to the Editor
I read a column of yours recently in which you hinted at retirement. I hope that would be a LONG LONG ways down the road. We’ve been connected to the Valley for a many years, through family as well as owning a house on Rye Main Street for 10 years. Having read some of the papers published prior to your takeover, we aren’t anxious to repeat that experience. And I wanted to mentioned that I grew up in Hays, KS, even though I was born at St. Mary’s in Pueblo. Pretty close to Wakeeney where you grew up.

Tip for the California and Texas transplants in the GHV
Get out your vehicles that have tracks, like your tractors, bulldozers or tanks; you will navigate a lot smoother on Pueblo County Roads in Rye and Colorado City than using conventional tires and wheels. The winter philosophy or motto of the County Roads and Excuses should be ( NO MAS ) ,( MIA), or to say it another way, your tax dollars will be just resting or hibernating like on a Covid Holiday. People of Rye and Colorado City should only be required to pay half of a year’s taxes on roads since most of the other half of road maintenance is MIA. In a search for the truth only a GPS in every county vehicle would reveal what’s really happening.
