I agree completely.  Nemausa blended the best of de Pontoise and Comte de 
Foix.  While I never saw her I can take what is told to me, that she was a 
grand lady.  The difference with Bonbelle is she was seen by hundreds 
(thousands?).  Rarely have I seen much aggression toward a dog, but I 
classified some of the things said about her and her owners as verbal 
aggression.  Interesting that these same folks cannot let go even now with 
old age and a record to celebrate in both the show ring and whelping box.
