EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in 1944, we see a young girl named Sonnica Godden sitting in the lush autumnal grass with a friendly Alsatian dog. The dog, a Kentwood Alsatian, is known for its distinctive plaited ears and powerful build, a testament to the breed's German Shepherd lineage. The girl's mother, Mrs. Godden, was a renowned breeder of German Shepherds, and it appears that Sonnica has inherited her love for these magnificent animals. The scene is filled with the warmth of the fall season, with the leaves on the trees turning vibrant shades of red, orange, and gold. The sun casts a soft, golden light over the scene, creating a serene and idyllic atmosphere. The Alsatian, with its tongue out and ears perked up, seems to be enjoying the autumn day as much as Sonnica. The photograph captures a moment of pure joy and connection between a young girl and her beloved pet. It is a poignant reminder of the deep bond that can exist between humans and dogs, and the enduring appeal of the German Shepherd breed. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a simpler time, where the pleasures of nature and the companionship of a faithful dog were cherished. Sonnica's posture and the Alsatian's relaxed demeanor suggest a deep understanding and mutual respect between them. The photograph is a beautiful testament to the enduring connection between dogs and their owners, and the joy that they bring to our lives.
