SAY IT’S NOT SO The Board has directed Staff to explore new ways to expand the process so that more multi-group judges can be created! Check the Board Minutes of March 2013 for that little gem. This in addition to the various surveys about judging results and procedures being planned only emphasize the misguided orientation of the Board to put the judges to the forefront of most all AKC projects. What about registrations, animal rightists and their attempts to destroy the very foundation of our sport-our breeders--and a myriad of internal problems including the restructuring of the entire corporation itself. (See Sari Tietjen on that subject in this issue for sure). What about reducing the number of shows instead of expanding the number of group judges-anyone thought to look into that one? There are so many long term and complex problems facing the sport which are just basically ignored or not publicly discussed by the Delegate Committees, the Member Clubs themselves--which truly are the foundation as the ruling body for the sport--let one not forget AKC was founded as a Club of Clubs-to say nothing of the Board’s obligations that it astounds these pages over the time spent and allocated to Staff by Board concerning judges and matters pertaining to them. Obviously not only is a restructuring of the entire Constitutional basis of AKC needed but the Board and its Chairman need to rethink their priorities insofar as publicly discussing the problems currently facing AKC. On a scale of 1 to 10 judges are somewhere in the 5 area for these pages and not the 10 area the Board seems to have assigned it.

INTER STATE PET TRAVEL AND EASTERN BLOC PUPPY IMPORTS An analogy can unhappily be made between those shelter organizations hell-bent on shipping rescue animals from state-to-state in what are basically unsupervised and unchecked situations and the increase in illegal importation in pedigree puppies from the Eastern bloc to both the UK and the States. These operations basically feed off of each other as veterinarians and pet concerned individuals worry about the lack of awareness of the potential health pitfalls which can and do occur. The more relaxed attitude towards shelter operations bringing dogs into their home areas from other states and countries must be investigated. Many of these dogs have been travelling for untold hours in unsuitable conditions causing potential health problems to dog populations in areas heretofore free of the newly introduced diseases. Indeed some of the diseases alleged to have been brought in from the Eastern bloc countries include Leishmania transmitted by sand flies which is potentially zoonotic.

This particular disease was unique to certain areas of Europe and virtually unheard of in the States until foreign dogs MARCH 29, 2013 were both imported and/or smuggled into this country, many of them illegally. The aim of those people so intent upon shipping animals from state to state must be beyond business concerns and must include some central form of checking up on the movement of animals such that health date is provided and checked out to assure all pet owners that proper health information is provided and adhered to.

Editorial

VETERINARY COSTS The sky-rocketing vet bills are subject to constant national discussion. Certainly many of the basic advances in veterinary medicine present an opportunity for high costs.

The Washington Times may equate these higher costs to Obamacare as it is reported to have done in one of its recent editorials but these out-of-sight veterinary bills became de rigueur years before that medical plan was even developed.

That so many more technological advances are available for our dogs today than 10 years ago cannot be denied leaving pet owners more ethical and financial choices to make than ever before. The increase in veterinary specialty medicine during the last 30 years has been mind-boggling while it would seem in the last decade whatever we can do for people we seem to be able to do for our dogs as well. No figures have been developed that these pages could find about how much people spend on end-of-life care for their dogs but it must be substantial. These choices in keeping our dogs alive can be as numerous, expensive and emotionally heart-breaking as they can be with humans. Some owners rely on pet insurance, which has been increasing in usage

by American pet owners through the last decade or so and fortunately AKC’s partnership with Pet Partners has been working out well but there are some people who argue that pet insurance is one of the reasons costs have risen so dramatically. Some believe - and these pages believe erroneously so- that the vets pass their charges onto the insurance companies. But let’s face it how many people can afford (or want to) get involved with spending several thousands of dollars on chemotherapy for a dog’s bladder cancer and then for other drugs to keep them alive and comfortable during the treatment. Pet insurance opens the door for an equality of treatment which heretofore was restricted to only the very wealthy. Additionally the agonizing questions around human end-of-life intervention have made their way to dogs as well as other pets and owners can feel guilty if they don’t do everything possible no matter the cost to save or extend their animals’ lives.

It’s truly one of the major problems facing the dog and pet owner in America and one which should be discussed by leaders within the canine world.

THE DEBARKING OF DOGS It is reported that the AKC has announced it is encouraging New York residents to express their concerns about the proposed banning of the practise of debarking dogs. The AKC says that it “opposes this bill which would ban the debarking of dogs as it restricts the rights of responsible dog owners to make viable, safe decisions on behalf of their pets in conjunction with their veterinarian. The AKC continues “Debarking is a viable veterinary procedure that may allow a dog owner to keep a dog in a loving home rather than to be forced to euthanize or surrender it to a shelter when the pet’s noisy behavior continually disrupts the community. As with other veterinary medical decisions, the decision to debark a dog is best left to individual owners and their veterinarians”. It’s a tough decision to debark a dog--sort of like declawing a cat-these pages in principle are against both procedures but recognize that in the long run it may be to the advantage of the dog and cat to do them. From where these pages sit only in the most extreme of situations should either procedure be done.

THE LATEST TRASHING INCIDENT Last year it was the Bloodhound people in York, Pennsylvania and this year the Dogue De Bordeaux people at the same hotel trashing the premises. What to be done about it--well in this week’s Question of The Week various opinions are stated including one from the Chairman of the Board at AKC. Totally unacceptable and punishable to the nth degree is our reaction and the perpetrators should be fined at the very least by AKC and probably suspended as well pending the circumstances. In this day of the animal rightists the last thing we in the dog world need are incidents such as those which occurred in York, Pennsylvania and they must be appropriately handled for sure.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK Five or so issues ago the question of monies being owed to AKC/ CAR by the Hundt Corporation were raised. In this period of time a meeting was alleged to have been held between a representative of AKC/CAR and the Hundt Corporation but there has been no report as to whether Hundt paid up or whether AKC ended up making restitution to CAR or even to Hundt in this matter. Isn’t it time for AKC/CAR to go public and let the Fancy know how the matter was finalized, if indeed it ever was?

Restructuring AKC

F

or years now, those following the governance of the American Kennel Club have been saying that the whole governing structure needs to be revamped and brought into the 21st Century. What we currently have is archaic, cumbersome, and obsolete. From the Delegate Body to the Board of Directors, the configuration needs to be changed to reflect a complex and diverse “club of clubs” that did not exist when the AKC was established almost 125 years ago.

A

KC’s founding fathers had no idea that their little organization of thirteen clubs and no money (at that time, AKC was subsidized by the Westminster Kennel Club) would metamorphose into a massive operation of over 600 clubs (with hundreds more potentially knocking at the door) and a $111 Million business.

As AKC has evolved, so too has the sport of purebred dogs.

Whereas, the original sport consisted of clubs devoted to field trials and conformation, today’s sport encompasses not only field trials and conformation, but also obedience, agility, rally, lure coursing, earthdog, herding and hunting trials and many other events. All of the clubs sponsoring such events should have the opportunity to become member clubs with a voice in the governing of their events, their dogs, and their “mother club” – the AKC. If all these clubs became member clubs, there is a potential for, conservatively thinking, well-over 1000 clubs with representatives to send to the Delegate meetings. This would make the meetings even more unwieldy and unproductive than they are today. With this in mind, steps have to be taken to change the framework of both the Delegate Body and the Board of Directors.

What are some of the ideas that should be considered?

• Divide the Delegate Body into sections of interest. For example, all-breed clubs would have their own delegate meetings; national parent clubs their own; field trials their own; obedience their own; agility their own and so on. As such, they, as the major stakeholders in that aspect of the sport of purebred dogs, would deliberate on those proposals and matters that concern their section and not be dependent on the whims of others who do not understand their sport.

• If a club has multiple areas of interest, it can have its Delegate crossover to the other sections. This can be the same person or a different club member who is versed in that additional area.

• Structure the organization so that there is only one Sectional in-person meeting a year at which time matters to be determined by a vote would occur. During the interim, use email and/or closed website for other matters that come before that particular area of interest.

• Delegate committee meetings could function via the web – with structured meetings twice a year. During the interim, use conference calls, email and/or closed website for other matters that come before the committee.

• Have each Section elect Delegates to serve on a Board of Representatives – weigh the number of those elected based on the number of event participants.

• Since parent clubs cross all sections, give them additional weighed representation on this Board to reflect their importance in all matters coming before the Body as it affects their breeds, in particular, and purebred dogs, in general.

• The Board of Representatives would meet twice a year to discuss and propose matters. Official conference calls, email and/or website would be used for other issues that might come up in the interim.

• Hold one General Assembly meeting a year – this would be a meeting of the Delegates representing all clubs – and would encompass all aspects of the sport of purebred dogs. It could be a weeklong “salute to dogs” with special events, seminars, and discussion groups.

• A club with more than one Delegate (due to Section involvement) would have to designate the General Assembly Delegate.

• Clubs should be permitted to designate an alternative Delegate if the General Assembly Delegate is unable to attend a G.A. meeting.

• A club would be able to designate anyone in good standing with AKC to serve as its Delegate.

• Only vote on Bylaw and Rule amendments once a year at the General Assembly meeting.

• Have the Board of Representatives elect from amongst themselves those who should serve on what we presently call AKC’s Board of Directors.

• If necessary, increase the number of Directors to represent all factions of the sport.

• The Board of Directors would establish an Executive Committee within the Board.

• This Executive Committee would be charged with overseeing the “general management of the business and affairs of the AKC . . .”

• The Executive Committee would elect the Chairman, Vice-chair and other officers of the Club.

• The Executive Committee would appoint such other committees as it deems necessary, comprised of individuals throughout the Fancy, to assist it in developing programs and resolving issues.

• The Executive Committee would meet monthly and would be limited to twelve members.

• Executive Committee meetings (and in fact all meetings) should be webcast and available to those members of member clubs who desire such access.

The above are only some suggestions as to how AKC should be restructured to meet its growing pains. There are others that are not listed.

The idea is to have members of the Fancy think about the issues facing the AKC and how to resolve them. It is obvious that something needs to be done about its governance. As things stand now, we are just drifting along. The system of our forefathers does not work in today’s world.

More importantly, the piecemeal approach presently being taken by the Delegate Body (the recent acceptance of Agility Clubs to membership is an example of this) will not work in the long run. The Delegates are just kicking the proverbial can down the road and are either unwilling or unable to accept the realities of the future!

TheLighter Side

of Judging

Transport

“T

ransport” or “transportation” is the movement of people, animaLS and goods from one location to another. The meaning comes from Old French transporter (to carry or convey across), from Latin transportare, from trans (across) plus portare (to carry away with strong feeling---meaning---to carry away into banishment). In other words, the definition of transport or transportation should rather read, “the movement of dog show enthusiasts, their dogs, and all their stuff, to and from shows in search of the almighty blue ribbon and all the emotional crap that goes with winning, losing and money.” Modes of dog show transport include, car, van, box truck, mega truck, motor coach, rail, water, air and---by foot. Transport is important to the sport, as it enables communication among breeders, judges, and handlers, which in turn establishes civility among the ranks---LOL! Essential to the success of the sport is the ability to get dog, breeder, owner, handler, judge, and club member to the show essentially in one piece and on time. Since I do not enjoy traveling in an automobile for over three hours at a clip, my personal mode of travel is usually air, train, helicopter, boat, private limo, hot air balloon, walking, horse, bicycle, golf cart---anything other than driving a damn car. All those years driving endless hours to hundreds of shows as a professional dog handler have taken their toll. Maybe things would be different today, if cell phones had been available. Maybe I would not stress so easily. Maybe I could curb my affinity for Diet Coke, M&M’s, and tootsie rolls. And, just maybe…I could wean myself off the unbelievable high I get from belting out the best of Donna Summer.

Someone found a letter you wrote me, on the radio And they told the world just how you felt It must have fallen out of a hole in your old brown overcoat They never said your name, but I knew just who they meant.

Oh, I was so surprised and shocked, and I wondered too If by chance you heard it for yourself I never told a soul just how I’ve been feeling about you But they said it really loud They said it on the air On the radio whoa oh oh On the radio whoa oh oh On the radio whoa oh oh On the radio whoa oh oh 18 Dog News

Now it’s all about Facebook, You Tube, Twitter, blog this, blog that, iTunes, etc. – leaving the little old Ford Econoline Van radio as a lost tool in the arsenal of fighting transport fatigue.

It would be great if I could rely on human transport – walking, jogging and running for my dog judging needs. It would be cost-saving, it would promote physical fitness, it would be environmentally friendly, and it would be sustainable as long as my knees and hips hold out. However, this is not possible and I find myself at the mercy of the automobile every time I accept a judging assignment.

It was my second Best in Show assignment---pre-cell phones and pre-laptop computers. I received my club transportation correspondences via the mailbox and via my shiny new fax machine. Bound for the sunny southwest, I leave the farm in Kentucky behind the wheel of the newly-released Ford Explorer for the Lexington airport. I park in long-term parking and a shuttle van picks me up and transports me to the departure area. I morph into human transport. Walking through the doors, I move to the ticket counter, collect my boarding pass, glide up the escalator, and proceed through security with my belt on, my shoes attached to my feet, a bottle of water in my left hand, and a jackknife in my right pocket. Human transport escorts me directly to my departure gate. After a few select customers board using wheel chairs as their mode of transportation, I walk onto the plane, find my seat, and fly to Atlanta.

In Atlanta, I take full advantage of the shuttle to move me from terminal to terminal. Once off the train, bi-pedal human transport is needed to reach the escalator. Arriving at the top of the escalator, I am afforded the luxury of a moving sidewalk for a short distance and then back to human, again, until I reach the appropriate gate. The flight to Phoenix is delayed by fifteen minutes. Again, wheelchair transport leads the procession, followed by human transport in need, and then me. It is a direct flight.

The large air transporter lands with little fanfare. We depart in reverse order---with the wheel chair transport last.

Human guides me through the long terminal, down the escalator to baggage collection. My hard-sided, brown Samsonite luggage tumbles from the transport chute. Without the assistance of attached wheels, I carry hard-sided-brown-Samsonite with my right hand and use my left hand to port my light-brownbriefcase. Upon arriving at the hotel shuttle service area, I open light-brown-briefcase, and retrieve the faxed sheet of instructions to make sure I board the correct climate-controlled shuttle Continued on page 80

babbling

By Geir Flyckt-Pedersen

Quiz Of The Week?

Every time I return from a major Canine Event like Westminster, AKC /Eukanuba (or even Crufts) I conclude: What a fantastic dog world we live in!

P

eople coming from all over the World, all over America- and seemingly everybody knows everybody!

Also how many extremely talented trimmers and handlers we have in our midst who -although most of them make a decent living- with the same level of skills in any other field would have made a fortune.

Not surprisingly, so many ex-handlers have tried their hands as sculptors- some with better results than others, but it does seem like a logical retirement pastime.

What really annoys me is that so many handlers are great storytellers, but never seem to sit down and write their memoirs.

Back to the handlers: Amazing how many couples are partners in crime in this professionand while working together 24 hours a day may seem like a blessing to some- I am sure it’s not always a bed of roses!

The old saying “Success breeds success” is certainly something which seems relevant when talking about this year’s Best in Show winner.

The incredible Green Team- although no longer in business- has certainly made its mark in this sport and for those of you who are slightly envious of the success the old guy from Wales has enjoyed over the years- it must be frustrating 26 Dog News

that once he retired, he left behind a bunch of superbly well qualified trainees to carry on the legacy!

Just mentioning names like Ernesto (and Carlos), Leonardo, Larry, Scott, Roxy- and I could go on and on- but just these few, recent names, illustrates how one person might have impacted our little world! Take a look at their records, what they already have achieved individually is monumental- and take a look at the way they care for, present and handle their charges. I am in awe!

So he cannot be all bad???

But he is not the only one! Taking a closer look at many of our top handlers-at least within the breeds I am most familiar with- so many have “pedigrees” which can be traced back to famous handlers (and breeders like the famous Mardomere establishment), Bob and Jane Forsyth, Ted Young, Dick Cooper, Annie Clarke, Ric Chashoudian, George Ward to name but a few.

If you survived the pressure of working for any of these guys and still were able to maintain your interest and enthusiasm for the game- you were really something special!

And I mean that seriously!

I know Abe Lincoln abolished slavery in 1863, but I think he forgot to include kennel workers and assistants!

And if you need to be filled in about their working conditions, just ask Woody about his time with Ric! I think he could write a book about it!

The fact that professional handlers for generations have been able to make a living handling dogs- and even hire assistants- is in my humble opinion the reason the dog show scene in this country is so significantly different from anywhere else in the world.

Thanks not least to all those supporting owners who financed it and made it all possible.

Couldn’t happen anywhere else!

Most of us European dog mad youngsters were basically autodidacts, feeling lucky if we just got a chance to spend time with dogs and pick up after them.

I was lucky to have someone teach me the basics of terrier Continued on page 58

Upside OF The Seesaw The AKC Agility National Championship 2013

By Sharon Anderson

T

he extravaganza of the AKC Agility National Championship combined with the Obedience and Rally National Championship was a huge success. There were nearly 1,400 dogs in agility and nearly 100 in obedience, smaller in rally. The six rings for the agility ran very smoothly with the six efficient agility judges keeping to schedule and making sure all the courses were set exactly the same in each ring to make all the competition equal. This involved three buildings and 150 volunteers to make it happen. The agility reps were stretched to the max but maintained an unruffled, pleasant demeanor all weekend.

Never have I seen so many thank yous to the reps on social media from the exhibitors. The support of President, Dennis Sprung, and his wife, Susan, and the new COO, Darryl Hendricks, was very evident at the event.

Susan and Dennis even helped sell the souvenir items with the rest of the volunteers.

The one incident that could have unhinged the reps was handled very smoothly. In spite of the clear instructions to not overwater the one agility ring that had recently experienced a burst water pipe and had flooded, the facilities’ employees over watered and that ring could not be used the first day. The reps quickly adapted and moved that ring to one of the other buildings and it was good to go the next day for the rest of the weekend. The computer skills of Steve Herwig were put to the test to keep all six rings using the electric scribe pads accurately and as exhibitors walked into the ring having the bar code on their exhibitor card scanned and that Continued on page 88

IRVING’s impressions

By Ronnie Irving

CRUFTS - HAS IT TURNED A CORNER? For a number of years it has been felt by some of us that Crufts, and along with it almost the whole of the dog fancy in the UK, has been under threat from one place or another.

Happily this year Crufts seemed to throw off that air of siege and it was described by at least one of the weekly dog papers in the UK - OUR DOGS - as has having ‘Turned the corner’.

Looking back over the last five years we can see that first of all, in the latter half of 2008, we had the extremely exaggerated and biased TV film which completely condemned TKC in general and Crufts in particular. By showing film shots of the Holocaust and Adolph Hitler it made the inference that those of us who breed and show dogs were all a bunch of cruel eugenics enthusiasts who had little or no interest in the welfare of the dogs that we were breeding and showing. It also described Crufts as nothing more than a ‘beauty pageant’ inhabited largely by ‘mutants’.

The public outcry that this created was unimaginable and in the end led in 2009 to the refusal of the BBC to televise Crufts show - something which it had been doing for some thirty plus years. Besides that, Pedigree, which was the show’s main sponsor at that stage, withdrew its financial sponsorship support. Some other less important organisations such as the RSPCA and the Dogs Trust withdrew from attending the event but that aspect made no difference whatsoever to the show’s viability. Certainly no-one ever came up to me at Crufts to complain that they couldn’t find the RSPCA or Dogs Trust booths at the show!

TKC PLOUGHS ON Happily, however, TKC, which owns and runs Crufts, ploughed on and in fact, partly as a result of the public outcry, was able to bring forward rather more quickly some of the canine health initiatives that it had already started.

These included the re-writing of breed standards to eliminate exaggerations, the changing of show rules on dog health, the permitting of outcrosses in certain circumstances and the development of what was then the KC Breed Health and Welfare Strategy Group and is now the KC Dog Health Group.

Fortunately with help from some very good supporters TKC was quickly able to find a new major sponsor for Crufts 42 Dog News

in Dfs, and the show was broadcast again in 2010. This year it has now graduated once again to being broadcast by one of the top four terrestrial TV channels in the UK and is now back in the ‘national institution’ category.

As far as the wider national media are concerned the show has been faring much better for a number of years. The national newspapers have not, in the last few years, been using the show either to poke fun at the dog fancy or to criticise dog breeders or dog shows from an animal welfare point of view.

That is progress.

OUTBURST OF HYSTERICS Two years ago there was an outburst of hysterics from some parts of the dog fancy because some dogs’ coats were tested for banned coat enhancement substances and then last year there was the outcry because six of the so called ‘high profile breeds’ were prevented from competing in the groups when TKC’s new Veterinary Tests were carried out.

This year no such melodrama happened. The atmosphere around the rings was more relaxed than ever. All fourteen of the ‘high profile breed’ best of breed dogs that had to undergo the veterinary checks were allowed to go forward to the Group Ring and certainly there seemed to be no great trauma amongst either the exhibitors or the organisers. There are those who have written that the one hundred per cent ‘pass rate’ was thanks more to TKC relaxing the rules than to the dogs being better. Personally I think that is nonsense. I did not see all of the Groups but many of those that I did see seemed to me to contain dogs of the fourteen breeds which this year were much sounder than last year, and much less exaggerated. Obviously entire breeds cannot have changed in just over a year but I have to say that I think that the judges of those breeds are being much more careful overall to send forward dogs which are less exaggerated and generally fitter than they did a few years ago. And surely, if we believe that dog shows exist to be used as a lever for positive change in the interest of the welfare of purebred dogs, that has to be a good thing.

GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH TKC would claim that Crufts is still the greatest dog show on earth. It had something like 20,500 dogs entered in the conformation part of the show and that is even despite the fact Continued on page 62

(and some would say, most prestigious) dog show in the world. “I just hate Crufts,” said

one of the folks on my left. “Me too; I just dread it,” said someone on my right.

They turned to me, expecting my assent.

“I love it!” I replied. Silence descended.

“I’ve loved it for nearly 20 years, and that never changes. I love it more every year.”

People who had previously thought me to be a rational person looked at me as if I’d just said that I planned to streak the group ring. But I meant it. Crufts is magic.

Y

es, the venue is huge and crowded, with well over 150,000 spectators and 25,000 dogs filling the

National Exhibition Center over the four days. And, yes, the place is carpeted with trade stands – more than 200 of them - the rings and benching taking a bit of a back seat to what most of the spectators seem to come for …the shopping.

And, yes, after four days of running through all five halls trying to see favorite breeds and get good photos, one can really use a chiropractor or podiatrist (or both). But there is an electricity that is unparalleled at any show in the world, especially at night when the groups are judged. And the fact that the dog who is ultimately awarded Best In Show on Sunday night has been called “Crufts Supreme Champion” pretty much says it all. The Kennel Club has its faults, but where Crufts is concerned, they certainly do good theater.

Day One was devoted to terrier and hound breeds. The last time a terrier went BIS, it was an American Sealyham, CH Efbe’s Hidalgo at Goodspice, handled by Margery Good, who had also gone best at the Eukanuba show and Montgomery. Judge that year was Peter Green. You have to go back to 2004 to find a hound in the top spot: the whippet CH Cobyco Call The Tune.

Largest entry in the terrier group was Staffies with, can you believe, 361; Whippets led the hound group with 209. Terrier judge was Paul Wilkinson, who started with Staffies He has judged at breed level at Crufts, but this was his first group

Why An Allergy Diet Works

The Allergy Diet - Part One In A Series On Allergies Ed Note: The opinions expressed herein are strictly those of this author. Dog News in no way suggests this diet be used for your dog in whole or in part.

There are two keys to allergy diets.

1. One is to eliminate all the additives and reduce the food sources to two: one for fat and protein, and one for carbohydrates.

2. The second key is to make those two foods ones that the dog has not had long exposure to. (So the dog has no, or only a low level, of antibodies to the food.)

T

here are now dog foods that advertise themselves as being based on one protein and one carbohydrate source and that is true. But they still include the twenty or more additives that all commercial dog foods seem to contain. Any home cooked diet, (Or for that matter the BARF diet) will eliminate these additives. That is why they help many dogs.

THE ROTATION DIET My first dog was a Collie with food allergies. We fed him on a rotation diet.

He ate commercial kibble for six months followed by hamburger and rice for six months. If he stayed on either food much past six months he would start vomiting. He lived relatively symptom free for twelve years. He was also externally allergic to most soaps. After treating nasty hot spots for the first half of his life, I realized that conventional shampoos and cosmetics also gave me skin lesions. So I took to washing him in plain water, and he never had another hot spot.

My oldest sister, Lori, has a Greyhound with food allergies. He throws up a lot. When she asked me how to treat him, I told her to feed him as if he were our sister Lynn, with a home cooked and very restrictive diet. We have all been so immersed in the family allergy knowledge needed to keep Lynn alive, that was all I had to say. But for newcomers to allergies, an explanation follows.

THE ALLERGY DIET AS A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL My latest three puppies included one who I suspected had food allergies. She had persistent diarrhea. The other two just had soft stools. At first all three seemed

46 Dog News

to get worse when I fed them puppy biscuits while training them. When I went to a wheat-free biscuit, things improved, but there was still room for a lot of additional improvement. (And most biscuits are wheat based. It is tough to find wheat-free ones.)

I finally bit the bullet, and put all three six-month old puppies on home cooked lamb and rice. They each weighed 50 pounds so feeding all three took a lot of home cooking. It also took a little organization. I had plenty of rice on hand, but needed to visit my Yuppie grocery store where they sell bargain ground lamb. Then I needed to dig out my largest non-stick pot and there was a lot of cooking to do. But it paid off. For the first time the puppies had really firm, healthy, stools.

It only took three days to confirm my suspected diagnosis. If an allergy diet cures the problem, then the problem is caused by a food allergy. The elimination diet is a test for food allergies. And it is a test that I generally try for either persistent diarrhea or seizures.

I doubt if Dr. Rowe anticipated anyone using his diet on dogs. I was thrilled with the puppies’ response to the diet.

When they had proved that they could tolerate home cooked lamb and rice, I picked up some lamb and rice kibble for them to snack on between their two cooked meals. They also tolerated that but I found that if I used kibble for their main meals things got squishy again.

They could tolerate some kibble diluted out with their two main home cooked meals. That was fine. I only wanted to use the kibble for free feeding during the day. Some dogs can’t tolerate any kibble at all.

While I was cooking for the puppies,

By Patricia Gail Burnham Kira took to lobbying intensely to be fed early. She was racing around the house and squeaking toys and running up to me.

I was puzzled, because I usually have to get home really late before she will ask for her dinner. But then I figured it out. She could smell the cooking ground lamb and rice, and she wanted some. She was out of luck. (Until later when she developed allergies of her own that required an allergy diet.) To cook a big pot of lamb and rice, it is best to cook it at night and then let it cool for the next day. It takes too long to cook, cool, and serve it the same night. For quick meals for a single dog, it is better to have a cold pot of cooked rice and just sauté one meal’s worth with the ground lamb in an electric skillet. That cools fairly quickly. I had never done lamb and rice for three growing 50+ pound puppies before.

They eat a lot.

VETERINARIANS AND ALLERGIES Why didn’t I take the puppies to my vet to treat their allergies? The average veterinarian, like the average doctor, isn’t taught much about food allergies in school. And the test for a food allergy is the dog’s response to an allergy diet. Lab tests of blood work aren’t much help in diagnosing allergies. There are now specialty commercial allergy diets available from your vet.

But having Kira throw seizures on the first one I tried, made me go back to my home cooked diet. It has never had that effect.

CATCH SEIZURES EARLY For seizures, it is important to start the diet early. Each seizure the dog has lowers the seizure threshold, making the next one more likely to occur. So dogs that have had a lot of seizures for a lot of years may not respond to the allergy diet by having their seizures stop, although they may become less frequent. A dog or person who has only had a few seizures may get total relief. But putting a dog with long standing seizures on the diet doesn’t cause any harm and could help.

TRYING THE DIET DOES NO HARM AND MAY HELP This is true whether you are treating IBD, pancreatitis, seizures or any of the other possible allergic ailments listed above.

You can also use the allergy diet along with whatever treatments your vet prescribes.

Off LEASH

ime is of the essence for concerned dog owners in West Vir-

ginia. This week the West Virginia Senate Agriculture and Rural Development Committee passed an amended version of Senate Bill 437, which could greatly affect breeders and will most definitely put a huge burden on the state’s shelters as well as its taxpayers.

The bill – Senate Bill 437 – now moves to the Senate Judiciary Committee, where it must be considered within the next few days. West Virginia residents should contact members of the Senate Judiciary Committee as well as their State Senators immediately to ask them not to support the bill as currently written. The bill limits ownership to 50 dogs and would force anyone who is above that threshold to get within the limit in 30 days. In order to comply with the limits, it’s expected that West Virginia’s shelters will be inundated with dogs. Does the shelter system have the capacity and manpower to care for such an infusion of dogs? Do the taxpayers feel this is a reasonable measure and use of their funds? Wherever they have been enacted, arbitrarily arrived at ownership limits have proven to be ineffective in addition to being expensive to implement. Most important, they fail to address the issue of irresponsible ownership.

There are other problematic issues in the bill, including a definition of a “commercial breeder” as one who owns over 11 intact dogs over the age of one year and breeds dogs exclusively as household pets. Though it exempts those who keep or breed dogs for the purpose of herding or guarding livestock animals, hunting, tracking or exhibiting in dog shows, performance events or field and obedience trials, the definition remains vague. What of the dog fancier or sportsman who is uncertain of the dogs’ potential as show or sporting dogs before they have fully matured? Does this person fall under the definition of a commercial breeder during this period of limbo? This gray area of determining whether a dog is a ‘household pet’ or a show or sporting dog could prove problematic for breeders. In addition, commercial breeders would also be subjected to unannounced inspections twice a year. Other stipulations in the bill include regulations for licensing and for care and conditions, such as not allowing enclosures or cages to be stacked and requiring that they have solid flooring. While these regulations are unnecessarily burdensome for responsible owners and breeders (as well as professional handlers with multiple charges), they do nothing to insure that dogs will receive better quality care. West Virginians would be best served if current animal cruelty laws were enforced and the real issues of irresponsible owners and breeders were properly addressed.

Meanwhile, in Tennessee, two very important animal seizure laws were being considered this week, that, if passed, would require owners to relinquish their animals in the event they are accused of cruelty regardless of whether or not the

50 Dog News

Beware These ‘Lists’ and Laws ByShaun Coen

charges are ultimately dismissed. In addition, these measures – House Bill 462 and Senate Bill 581 – would broaden the scope of who is allowed to take custody of the seized animals to include “any governmental animal control agency, law enforcement agency, or their designee.” It would also reduce the number of days to post security from 15 to 10 days and delete the authority of the court to suspend the posting of security of a person found indigent. Laws of this nature have been popping up elsewhere so breeders and owners everywhere should take note, lest they become the target of anti-dog owning and breeding individuals and organizations.

T

he city of Portland, OR is the subject of ridicule and its residents are regularly lampooned on the television comedy Portlandia but it’s widely regarded as a great place for dog owners to live and a great place to be a dog. The website NerdWallet, which is billed as a financial literacy website, has compiled a list of the best cities in America for dogs, taking into consideration affordable veterinary care, whether or not the city is “walkable”, and the number of offleash dog parks (per 100,000 residents). It rated the nation’s 50 largest cities and ranked the top ten. Plenty of people may beg to differ with the rankings, however.

According to NerdWallet, the top ten best cities for dogs in descending order are Oakland, CA, Minneapolis, MN, Milwaukee, WI, St. Louis, MO, Seattle, WA, Washington, DC, Miami, FL, Las Vegas, NV, San Francisco, CA and at number one, Portland, OR. The top choice was cited because “Portland has 32 off-leash dog parks, which is more than any other city except New York.” Which leads one to ask, why isn’t New York City on that list? I’m sure we all have some hometown pride when it comes to such lists, but if New York has the most off leash dog parks, is infinitely walkable, has dog-friendly restaurants, and is home to the Westminster Kennel Club and the American Kennel Club, and is the host city of an annual Meet the Breeds extravanganza, it deserves to be on the list, the cost of veterinary care notwithstand-

ing. After all, Seattle had the highest average cost of a vet visit at $63.50, yet it landed in seventh place. And how does Miami, FL, which has banned pit bulls for the past 24 years, even rate a mention when it comes to being dog friendly?

An additional study done last year by U.S. News and World Report listed the top ten American cities in which to be a pet, as opposed to a pet owner, and came up with a very different list. Its calculations were taken from the average amount of money spent on pets on a monthly basis and the findings would clearly indicate that it’s best to be a pet in Arizona, which notched four of the top ten spots. Scottsdale, AZ residents spent the most on their pets each month, $47.88, with Tucson and Chandler residents coming in third and fourth place, respectively, and Phoenix coming in tenth place. The other cities rounding out the list are Durham, NC, Colorado Springs, CO, Nashville, TN, Virginia Beach, VA, Dallas, TX and Greensboro, NC. Men’s Health magazine did a similar list of the top cities for dogs last year, in which Portland, OR also came out on top, and in second place was Colorado Springs, CO. Part of the reasoning cited was that Colorado Springs, in addition to having 250 days a year of sunshine and an abundance of outdoor activities, also levies the highest maximum fine for animal cruelty - $500,000.

New York came in 71st place on that list, while Denver, CO came in fifth place with an ‘A’ rating despite having a city-wide ban on pit bulls. It might be the best city for some dogs but others need not set foot in town. One must consider the source and draw one’s own conclusions when it comes to these “best of” type lists. Listing Miami, FL and Denver, CO as some of the most ‘dog friendly’ cities without mentioning their long-standing bans on pit bulls does a grave disservice to the general public and doesn’t portray a realistic scenario. Imagine the welcome an unsuspecting owner of a bully breed would receive if he or she took these lists as gospel and decided to move to one of these locales. Champions of the purebred dog are used to irresponsible reporting in the mainstream media but its repercussions are real and dogs and their owners are often victimized as a result. Part of being a champion of purebred dogs and breeders includes enlightening the general public about the misperceptions of them as portrayed in mainstream media.

t was reported in the latest Board Minutes that a Judge who was found to be smoking marijuana whilst judging was suspended and hit with a heavy fine as well. Perhaps he judged more accurately under the influence of pot but AKC did not take kindly to those actions. Wonder who reported him. Must have been a jealous exhibitor wishing to do the same thing, you think?

Speaking of being under the influence of something or other we had made advanced plans to go to the Fort Worth shows last weekend but ended up cancelling out at the last moment and going to New Brunswick, New Jersey instead. The New Jersey Convention and Exposition Center is an adequate sort of venue, which gets good sized entries year after year with many a quality exhibit in competition.

The panels are pretty strong and by and large I think most exhibitors seem to enjoy themselves. The food is not of the greatest but it is basic. Fortunately less than a fiveminute drive away is a deli called Harold’s which is much more than acceptable. Sort of the Stage Deli of the area as I understand the owner is a former employee of that NYC emporium, now closed. At the show I saw what looked to me to be a large spectator contingency which always makes me happy as it can be a sign that people are still truly interested in looking at purebred dogs with the motive of buying them in the future. You know this nonsense in both Colorado and New York about making the rescue dog the state dog of either or both states is just that: nonsense. Sure it’s fine to promote the rescue of animals and to encourage it as well but let’s face it and anyways as far as I am concerned if you are going to own a dog first preference should go to the home-bred purebred dog for sure. AKC is as I understand it a mite upset regarding the Colorado and New York discussions but again the AKC sat by for years and did nothing to counter the publicity pushing resContinued on page 113

NOFCA’s 43rd Annual Grand Course (Part 2)

he world show Greyhound gene pool is miniscule compared to the racing gene pool.

The racing Greyhounds are privileged to be able to be registered with the AKC with no delays. Strider is behind hundreds of AKC show Greyhounds in the past 9 or 10 generations and has already helped diversify the show Greyhound immensely.

AKC Salukis have a more circuitous route to bring in desert-bred Salukis, but it can be accomplished by registering the desertbred Saluki with the “Society for the Perpetuation of Desert Bred

Salukis (SPDBS), and after 3 generations of off-spring registered with SPDBS, the subsequent generation can be registered with the AKC. I’ve critiqued about 4 or 5 dozen individual desert-bred imports or their off-spring for the Society for the (SPDBS) over almost 40 years, and speaking for myself, I’ve never evaluated a desert-bred Saluki that was not in my view a purebred Saluki. An experienced judge should be able to tell by examination of a dog if it looks as though it is purebred or not. In my view, the 3 generation wait is a waste of valuable time to diversify a gene pool.

The National Open Field Coursing Association (NOFCA) recognizes the first generation of Salukis from the SPDBS registration.

In the late 80’s, with the hunts gradually migrating to the desert, the Salukis dramatically improved their win ratio at the Grand Course. In 1990, the hunts were definitely now entrenched in the sandy desert fields, and after 20 years of the Grand Course, the Salukis won their second Grand Course with Herb’s Turbo Charged Saluki, Musdiy. The grand total of breeds that have won the Grand Course as of 2013 stands at 31 Greyhounds, 9 Salukis and 3 Whippets.

The 3 most popular breeds in NOFCA (National Open Field Coursing Association) are Whippets, Greyhounds and Salukis and are the breeds that were specifically bred for coursing hares. Starting officially in January 1965 of the 1964/ 65 coursing season with

Miles the Saluki, a former 2011 Grand Course winner.

day one of what would eventually become NOFCA, the Christmas Cup Saluki Hunt has had the most hounds competing of any of the sighthound breeds throughout the coursing season. Salukis are durable and have endurance, but do not generally have the speed of the Whippet, Greyhound or even the Borzoi. When we look at the Saluki winners of the Grand Course since 1990, each Grand Course top ten winners help us to connect more dots.

2013 was the first time in 43 years the Salukis have swept the top placements with first, second and third over-all in the Grand Course. The Saluki breed is proof that speed alone does not a coursing dog make.

•The Saluki breed was bred to course hares in the desert.

•The Saluki foot construction with its long hare-shaped toes adapt well to running on sand.

•The body type with its height-to-light-weight ratio assists in its ability to float across the top of the sand rather than waste energy by sinking.

•The body type also assists in maintaining a lower body temperature under the exertion by more efficient cooling in a long run.

•Salukis generally weigh between 40 lbs to 60 lbs. Most of the sighthounds that place in the top ten of the Grand Course over the years range in this sweet spot of 40 lbs. to 60 lbs.

•Most Grand Course winning Salukis have had an infusion of desert-bred blood in their recent past resulting in “Hybrid Vigor.”

For these reasons, the Saluki has always been a formidable

threat in the coursing field. A Greyhound show breeder who was showing off her Ch. Greyhound at a crafts fair explained this truth to me in 1968. “The Greyhounds greatest challenge in Open Field Coursing comes from the Saluki breed.”

Nothing in this respect has changed in the past almost half century.

T

he big surprise we find from the 2013 Grand Course is that the rare breeds are beginning to challenge some of the breeds that were bred to course hares.

At the top of the rare breed challenge list is the Galgo Espanol, but also, a Silken Windhound was out there forcing work early in the courses. Some rare breeds are bred to hunt rabbits, and there is a difference between a rabbit and a hare. But neither a rabbit nor a hare should ever be referred to as a bunny. Other breeds were bred to hunt and not necessarily to course game on flat lands.

One of these breeds is the Afghan Hound that were used to hunt game in mountainous terrain. That doesn’t mean these Afghans couldn’t run, because they sure did shock us all at this Grand Course. The breed is not just a show ornament, as there are Afghans that are great field dogs that toe out in front! Their coats were sparse with bare pasterns. These are real Afghan Hounds that bare (pardon the pun) another look, but still have the typey appearance of hunters of the past.

Continued FROM page 26

trimming, but to improve I was on my own!

Many of the top handlers in England would never even try to teach you anything about presentation as that could be a potential threat to themselves!!! Wouldn’t even let you into their trimming room to watch them work!

So as a dog nation you are lucky- and one of the consequences in addition to the opportunities to learn- is that the dog world here, at least for an outsider or recently arrived immigrant, seems like one big family!

Another question which came up sitting ringside at Westminster: What would the US show scene be like without all those clever immigrants who seem to dominate in so many areas? Has it got anything to do with work ethics or what is it all about?

And let’s face it, work as a professional handler is a total and tough commitment, not by any means just a walk in the park.

Young people have come over from Norway, Sweden, the UK, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Central and South America, Germany, Italy, Spain, etc. to learn- and many have stayed and made a great career for themselves. But they all were trained by experts whose history can be traced back to the people I mentioned earlier- plus of course a number of other handlers.

Then of course some have arrived in this country- already experienced and ready to go- but I guarantee you that they were trained by handlers who had returned to their home country after spending time in the US. Without question, even the American influence in most European countries regarding handling, presentation as well as breed type in a number of breeds, is brought on by former “students” of American handlers.

It always hits me when involved with a crowd of dog people, how few surnames are used for all these handlers!

So many couples. They’re all part of the family- and I don’t mean only the handlers, but also a lot of couples involved with many other aspects of this game, judging, writing, etc., etc.

And here comes the QUIZ: If you can without cheating add the surnames of all the people (couples) mentioned hereafter, whose surname I never heard mentioned during any conversation when in NY for Westminster. Some of them sadly no longer with us.

I will personally donate $5 to ONE of the replies with all correct answers: Starting with a couple not really dog people, but HIS mother is: William and Kate! The obvious: Matt & Gene, Bob & Jane, Toni & Martin, Peter & Gaynor, Peter & Beth, Peter 58 Dog News

& Helga, Pammie & John, Jimmy & Janet, Tommy & Andrea, Ron & Kathy, Ronnie & Lorna, Jackie & Terry, Ernesto & Angie (well what would their lives be without Carlos?), Leonardo & Jody (do I hear the tunes of Mendelsohn’s Wedding March…. for these four soon ?), Marcelo & Larry, Andrew & Amy, Amy & Phil, Rita & Dougie, Clay & Bergit, Bergit & Hans, Jane & Stan, Jane & Greg, Dick & Judy, Ruth & Dick, George & Roz, Roz & Andrew, Dennis & Randy, Dennis & Susan, Chris & Woody, Susie & Jorge, Susie & Scott, Bill & Bill, Bob & Bob, Polly & Bob, Bob & Jean, Clint & Joanie, Jim & Jim, Sam & Sam, Liz & Joe (and the UK version of Liz & Joe , Kim & Tony, Jen & Maripi, Chris & Rachel, Toddy & Houston, Gerard & June, Kelly & Chris (?), Gabriel & Ivonne, Lesley & Eddie, Michael & Michael (one evidently larger than the other?), Michael & Michelle, Jackie & Franco, Bill & Nigel, Ed & Luc, Annie & Jim, Cindy & Robin, Madelyn & Jeff, Candye & Bob, Ann & Tom, Bo & Paul, Espen & Åge, Mike & Jason, Robin & Laura, Bob & Mary , Bill & Nigel, Ron & Debbie, Babbie & Bob, Andrea & Tommy, Jennie & Christian, Roxanne & Jessy, John & Bea, Bill & Pattie, Bruce & Tara, Pat & Chuck, Peggy & Sandy, Peggy & Ed, Muriel & Joe, Peter & Val, Roger & Paula- and I could go on. But beware: there is one trick question included!!! Some of these folks I know very well, some not so well, but they have all one thing in common: They are all seriously involved in this sport we all love so much and they have all in different ways made contributions to enrich our little world!

Is there any other sport under the sun- except ballroom dancing- which involves so many couples?

Most of them don’t even need a surname-they’re familiar to most of us…and if a recent immigrant can complete their names- so surely can you…?

However- what I really want to point out, by mentioning all these “twosomes”, is that to be able to really enjoy our hobby, it is vital that your partner also enjoys it. Shared joy is double joy-some slogan says- but within this sport which is so “allabsorbing” I think if you live with a person without the same enthusiasm- life can easily be hell….

If you happen to be in those shoes… give me a call and I will help you find a counselor-or maybe even more appropriate: A Divorce Lawyer!

Back to Westminster: Wasn’t it just annoying how few people there were who came up with major complaints about the new set-up???

There is nothing better than to share- and have a heated discussion about - things that irritate you at dog shows- and there is always something. But for some reason on this occasion I heard much more praise than complaints.

I know it doesn’t sound possible, but certainly an accolade to whoever is in charge of the event that they had done a swell job.

But I refuse to end without one. I hate bus rides. So what about a Helicopter Shuttle (complimentary at least to poor old immigrants) in operation from the roof of Affinia to the Piers next year???

that all of the exhibits have to qualify to be there. It can also claim to be the biggest annual dog show held anywhere in the world. Yes some of the FCI shows such as the FCI World Dog Show or the FCI European Dog show when held as a ‘one-off’ in a popular location such as Paris, may occasionally muster a few more dogs, but no other annual dog show anywhere else in the world gets as many as 20,000 entries.

This year Crufts claimed nearly 150,000 visitors and a TV viewing audience of over 4.0 million as well as a huge internet following, with Facebook “Likes” numbering well over 100,000 in just a few days. The Best in Show Arena, which seats around 6,000 people, was sold out and was packed absolutely to capacity on the final night. It was also almost totally occupied virtually all day on the Saturday and most of Sunday. The show covers a total area of 25 acres.

No other show in the world has the size and range of other activities to go along with the pure ‘dog show’ aspects of Crufts.

Discover Dogs (or as the US version is called ‘Meet the Breeds’) is held over four days. The Arena is used for lots of canine displays and also houses the Agility, Flyball and Heelwork to Music competitions along with the International Junior Handling Finals, the KC Breeders Competition and the Group competitions. There are also separate rings for Obedience, for the Young Kennel staffed and organised mainly by YKC Members, for Canine Good Citizens; and a ring exclusively reserved for displays of different kinds of training for Field Trials, Working Trials, Agility, and for Training for conformation show handling. There are also areas featuring Kennel Club and other Canine Health Areas and so on.

For many years now the show has also hosted and sponsored hundreds of veterinary students to attend on the Saturday and Sunday and they are given a short briefing on what the dog fancy and TKC are doing for the benefit of the longer term welfare of dogs.

All of this, plus the over five hundred concessions present in the five exhibition halls, goes to make Crufts a real spectacular show of which its founder – Charles Cruft – would be justly proud.

TALKING THE SHOW UP And that, of course, was precisely what Charles Cruft himself always intended for the show. He always went to great lengths to talk the show up – and you may say that some of us Brits have been doing that ever since! It is recorded in the pages of OUR DOGS and thence in the Official History of Crufts written by my old friend the late Frank Jackson, that whenever entries at the show were flagging Mr Cruft was able to pull some further rabbit out of the hat to make things appear better. For example in 1909 he decided to spice things up a little and announced innocently that that year’s show was to be a Silver Jubilee event – despite the fact that it was being held only eighteen years after the first Crufts Show. Indeed even including his previous terrier shows it was only possible to get things to add up to twenty-three years of his events not the twenty-five needed for a silver jubilee!

Another method used by Mr Cruft to distract the public’s attention away from falling entries was deployed in 1910. He

managed to organise a Royal Visit of Queen Alexandra to the show and although this was all done rather on the spur of the moment and at the last minute, Mr Cruft was able to organise a Royal Box surmounted by the Royal Coat of Arms and according to OUR DOGS: “furnished a luxuriousness which would, we should say, almost vie with the Royal Box at Ascot Races. The tapestry was recherché, the suite of furniture being gilt and upholstered in pale blue silk – the Queen’s favorite color.”

Nor was Crufts free from a fair bit of exaggeration as to what the size of the entry for his show actually was. A letter in OUR DOGS before the end of the 19th Century from an exhibitor at the show, complained that if you looked at the final number of the final dog entered in the Crufts catalogue and at the press blurb for the show, you would conclude that there were 2,203 dogs entered at that year’s event. The exhibitor suspected that this was not quite true, and took the trouble to go through the catalogue and count the true number which he revealed as only 1,572 dogs entered. Charles Cruft had somehow managed to inflate the entry of dogs by some 631 and the exhibitor concluded his letter by saying: “How long will the Kennel Club countenance this style of conducting a show?”

NO SUCH TRICKERY NEEDED But no such trickery seems to be necessary today to keep the event in the public eye. Most of those who attended this year’s show felt that it was well organized, relaxed and optimistic. There was a good deal of quality in the Groups apart from at least one lame dog (not from the ‘high profile’ section and I am told that there have been over two hundred complaints submitted to TKC about that). Most agreed that the quality of the final line-up of dogs in the Best in Show ring was well up to standard and ‘Jilly’ the PBGV which went Best in Show was met with a very popular welcome and great acclaim all round.

Taken as a whole, Crufts 2013 seemed to most observers to be an optimistic pointer for the future of pedigree dogs here in the UK. Of course there will always be more to do to achieve better health and welfare for dogs, but in my view Crufts can be proud of the fact that it is playing such a major role in helping to achieve those goals in so many ways and is once again giving the dog fancy a good name with the public.

But as the Editorial page in OUR DOGS said two weeks ago, “There can be no room for complacency. There is much still to be done. Public opinion can change very easily and very rapidly. The Kennel Club has to conserve what it has already achieved and must continue to build upon it. The world of dog shows will always be under threat unless it can show that it is a positive element for the future welfare of dogs. It needs to be able to refute the view that it is just the beauty pageant that its critics would like to suggest. For all of those reasons the Kennel Club must continue to be vigilant against taking any actions which would endanger the many achievements that it has worked so hard to win.”

I can but agree very enthusiastically with that sentiment!

assignment. (I don’t know the man, but it’s nice to see a different face in the group ring; TKC has a propensity for recycling the same group judges year after year. No comment intended on their competence – many of them are top judges in the UK and throughout the world. But the same names keep popping up year after year.

This is the busiest day for me, as terriers are my preference, and, since many of my British friends are there on terrier day, it’s a day to connect with lots of people I only see once or twice a year. If you are seriously interested in more than a couple of breeds, you’ll find it a challenge to watch more than snippets of judging. Entries are much larger than we’re used to, and terriers are spread throughout two different halls. For example, there were two Sealyhams at the Garden, and 41 entered at Crufts. With 141 Borders and 131 Parsons, entries at Crufts rival some of our specialties. Mr. Wilkinson found his winner in the lovely Skye bitch CH Salena The Special One owned by Mrs. S.C. Breeze, with Reserve Best of Group to a familiar dog and handler team, the Lakie Am CH Iron Van Foliny Home, handled by Gabriel Rangel for Victor Malzoni. Third place went to another American dog, the Irish CH Fleet St Fire and Ice, now resident in the UK and owned by the Barker/ Averis team. She was bred by Stan Wodjewodski, whose Fleet St Irish have done so well here, and handlers R.C. and Shari Carusi.

“Fourth of Group” went to the Swedish Border Norduch Toftahill Game On.

ots of other events take place each day in addition to the breed judging. On Thursday, for example, you could be entertained by agility, flyball, heelwork to music, obedience, and Young Kennel Club competitions (which mirror adult events and provide a positive way of gaining experience in dog activities for young folk).There are a myriad of educational events as well, ranging from “How puppies learn,” to “Raising a Guide Dog Litter.” And, of course, you can shop till you (literally) drop. There is every manner of “things doggy,” but the largest crowd is always around the “miracle mop” stand, and lots of people are seen lugging the mops through the NEC on their way to the car park or the adjoining train station. Aren’t British pets housebroken? British dog people seem to be more “holistic” than we tend to be, so there are always crowds around the natural and herbal remedy vendors, and around those who sell practical items such as collars and leads. But not everything is dog-related. I scored a wonderful handbag on Sunday, when lots of merchants decide that they don’t want to re-pack and carry the stuff home.

Thursday is also “hound day,” with hounds occupying three

out of the five halls. I had great plans to watch Wolfhounds (my secret love), but only caught the tail end of the judging (pun intended). Ben Reynolds-Frost did the honors. No stranger to the ring, he started his judging career at the tender age of 15, and has judged throughout the world, including the U.S. It was no surprise when he pointed to the gorgeous PBGV CH Soletrader Peek A Boo, owned by Sara Robertson and Mrs. W. Doherty and handled by Sara’s husband Gavin. She was top dog all breeds in 2012, and was Reserve BIS at Crufts in 2011. She had seven all breed Bests in the UK prior to Crufts, and was BIS at the Amsterdam Winners Show. Gavin and Sara are a young couple at the top of their game; Soletrader Petits took the lion’s share of the awards at the PBGV national in the U.S. last year. Miss WiltonClark’s Whippet dog CH Shalfleet Simply A Lord was in second place, with third to the Mini Wire Dachshund Stargang Czarina. In the U.K., the six sizes/ coats are shown separately, so minis have more of a chance than they do here. The big winning Norwegian Elkound Ch/Irish CH Kestos Ispy at Graythor JW SHCM took fourth. The JW suffix stands for Junior Warrant, and the other title is “Show Champion of Merit,” both titles attained by winning at pre-challenge certificate level.

“There’s an app for that” took on new meaning this year, as iPhone and Android users were able to download a Crufts app that kept them informed of events throughout the day. There was also streaming video available, although breed judging is not covered as it is at the Garden (or, should I say, at the Piers). In addition, there was live TV coverage every night. I know more than a few press people who, having walked their obligatory 10 miles each day, retired to their hotel room to watch the evening’s event on the telly. While seating for the first three nights is free, you do need a ticket for Sunday night, and so it’s traditional for those exhibitors who don’t want to fight the crowds to pull up a chair in front of the huge television screen in Hall One and watch the events that are taking place only a few hundred yards away on the big screen. The press has reserved seating each evening, although it’s not the best vantage point for picture taking. Dogs in the main ring are stacked facing away from the press, so profile shots on the table are an impossibility.

When group winners are chosen, photographers make a mad dash to the entrance of the “collecting ring” where photos are taken. Most behave as one would expect from professionals, with the old days of pushing and shoving thankfully a memory (usually). There are a few chronic offenders, but the security people are great at imposing order, and several have become friends over the years.

Day Two was devoted to the Toy and Utility (nonsporting) breeds. BTW, if you’re looking results up online, King Charles Spaniels are NOT Cavaliers; they are what we call English Toy Spaniels. Years ago I diligently copied the results of KCS judging for my Cavalier friend back home, only to be told, politely, that it was the wrong breed! Largest entry in Toys was in Cavaliers, with 334. Group judge was Liz Cartledge, making this her 6th group appointment at Crufts. Born in Sweden, she emigrated to Continued on page 70

Heart of America Cluster Story and Photos By Julie Lux

E

xactly one year after her untimely death, the Heart of America and Leavenworth Kennel Clubs dedicated its 2013 cluster of shows to the memory of Judy Goodin. Judy was a founding member of the Leavenworth Club and served as its president on more than one occasion, holding that office at the time of her death. She was a long-time member of Heart of America serving in many capacities including show chair, a position she had held for many years.

Rather than the Clubs’ usual home at Hale Arena in the American Royal Complex in the Kansas City Stockyards area, the 2013 show was held at Bartle Hall in downtown Kansas City, a venue that was always a favorite of Judy’s. Bartle featured more than 150,000 square feet of space, allowing ample room for grooming, show rings and spectators. The clubs offered complimentary coffee for exhibitors all four days and distributed commemorative tote bags reminding exhibitors that the cluster will return to Hale Arena in 2014.

Much of the judging panel was made up of long-time friends of Judy and her husband, Heart of America president Bob Goodin, and included Loraine Boutwell, Dawn Hansen, Helen Lee James, Dr. Al Krause, Marjorie Martorella and Bob Stein. JoAnne Schullier stepped in to judge for Elaine Lindhorst on Friday. Louise and Brian Harris of New Zealand and Dr. Terill Udenberg from Canada made it an international event.

Additionally, the Leavenworth and Heart of America Clubs donated more than $30,000 in prize money in Judy’s memory.

Photos of Judy and video of her judging the 1996 Working Group and 2004 Sporting Group at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Shows, generously provided

by Westminster, was shown throughout the weekend. The video commemorated just two of the many prestigious assignments that Judy received during her judging career. Other notable 68 Dog News

Remembers Judy Goodin

assignments included the AKC Eukanuba National Championship and many, many national specialties – some parent clubs asking Judy to judge their national more than once.

Along with four days of all-breed shows, the Cluster hosted specialty shows and supported entries with the Heartland French Bulldog Club, Heart of America Keeshond Club, Heart of America Poodle Club, Heart of America Samoyed Club, Weimaraner Club of Greater Kansas City and Yorkshire Terrier Club of Greater Kansas City.

On Thursday and Sunday Brian Harris and Bob Stein both selected the English Toy Spaniel (King Charles & Ruby), GCH CH LTO Prosperity, bred by Mark A. Landers, owned by Ray J. Cole and Landers and handled by Jeff Wright for top honors. Loraine Boutwell decided on the Miniature Schnauzer GC CH Allaruth Just Kidding V Sole Baye, owned and bred by Yvonne B. Phelps and Ruth Ziegler and handled by Birgit Kabel as Friday’s Best in Show. Saturday, Al Krause chose the Akita, GCH CH Stardust’s See You At the Show RN bred by Rick and Teresa Witte and owned by Robert and Patricia Rogers and the Wittes, and handled by Clint Livingston. Each day, Best in Show recipients took home a check for $1,000 courtesy of the Clubs.

“We appreciate all those who participated in our 2013 shows to help us honor Judy,” said her husband, Bob. “I want to especially thank the members of both Clubs who worked very hard to make this show one that Judy would have been proud of—and I do think she would be pleased.

“I also want to thank all the exhibitors and friends who stopped to share a special memory of Judy or a word of condolence with me.

Their kindness means a lot,” he added.

As the members begin preparation for the Club’s return to Hale Arena in 2014, one thing is certain: Judy Goodin’s spirit will continue to be evident at Leavenworth and Heart of America Kennel Club dog shows for many years to come.

after night not so much. But they are clearly crowd pleasers, and many people exit the arena when the “action events” are over. The gundog demo was interesting, and makes me ashamed that my cocker spaniel isn’t better trained. There was also a demonstration of working police dogs, with two of the dogs making their debut on the streets of Birmingham the following day. Some years ago TKC began a competition called Friends for Life, featuring five dogs who had, in different ways, changed the lives of their owners in profound ways. I remember the first year when Daniel, a little boy who was wheelchair bound, sobbed uncontrollably when his dog was voted #1. He made a cameo appearance this year.

Now a young man, he talked about how the competition had changed his life. This year’s contestants included, among others, a canine war hero, a bullmastiff who brought her bereaved owner back from the brink of serious depression, and a three-legged Anatolian Shepherd who was tied to the railroad track and left to die. He was rescued, but lost his leg. He was subsequently adopted by a family with a severely disabled little boy, and has made a profound difference in little Owen’s life. “Haatchi has changed my life,” he said. “I didn’t really meet many others with disabilities and felt like the odd one out, which made me really sad.

But when I saw Haatchi and saw how strong he was, even though he only had three legs, I became stronger myself. I love him so much.” Owen and Haatchi were clearly popular winners, and, once again, most of us were reaching for the Kleenex.

England in 1967 and is one of the best known judges in the world. She was BIS judge in 1999. Liz is also a great supporter of juniors in the U.K., and mans the Overseas Visitors lounge each year as well. It was a popular win when she pointed to the King Charles Spaniel CH Maibee Theo, owned by Mr. And Mrs. Robins with Reserve to the IG CH Dalinset Sarastro, owned by the Hodges. Third place went to the oddly named Yorkie CH Royal Precious JP’s F4 Juliana in an entry of 110, with fourth to the Pom IR CH Belliver Unexpected Target.

Frank Kane, familiar to exhibitors around the world, passed on the Utility Group. He is an American Cocker fancier and is one of Britain’s busiest judges. If his name sounds familiar, it’s perhaps because he did BIS last year. His choice for #1 was the Tibetan Terrier bitch Kybo Pandarama, quite an achievement for a bitch who is not yet a champion. Second place went to the Shiba CH Vormund Norma Jean, piloted

by Michaela Dunhill-Hall, the now-grown daughter of top breeder-handler Liz Dunhill, famous for her Shibas, Rottweilers and Soft Coated Wheatens. A lovely Standard Poodle took third place, piloted by Mikael Nilsson, who went BIS in 2002, the first year that the quarantine was lifted. His winner that year was another big poodle, Nor CH Topscore Contradiction. This time it was Dk/Se/Fi CH Abica’s Miles Ahead, registered in Denmark. The Dalmatian dog CH Offordale Chevalier took fourth.

aturday and Gundogs…not a great combination if you’re trying to avoid crowds! Saturday was absolutely packed, and getting around the NEC (all 250,000 square meters of it) was truly a challenge. Entries in popular breeds are huge. Imagine 490 Labs and 454 Goldens! Flatcoats, which are much more popular in England and in Europe than they are here, had 337 entries.

Irish Water Spaniels and Sussex took last place with 20. Zena Thorn Andrews did the group (the only one judged on Saturday). She did Best in 2007, giving the top spot to CH Araki Fabulous Willy, bred in the UK, but later sent to the U.S. where Larry Cornelius had great success with him. It was Larry on the end of the lead in 2007. Since 2005, four American handlers have gone Best In Show with dogs who were campaigned in the U.S. First in Group was, for most of us, a bit of a dark horse, with the top spot going to the lovely yellow Lab Italian CH Loch Mor Romeo, owned by Mr. F. Barberi. What a show dog! Second was Sh CH Gunalt De Ice At Stridview, owned by Mrs. K. Whitehead, and bred by Patsy Hollings who, with husband Steve, has for many years been the top breeder, all breeds, in the U.K. Most gundogs have ShCH in front of their names; it stands for “show champion.” In order to remove the “Sh” a dog has to also qualify in the field. This is also true, interestingly enough, for Border Collies.

Third place went to the GSP Sh CH/Ned CH Kavacanne Toff at the Top, with fourth to the top winning Irish Water Spaniel ShCh/Am CH Whistlestop’s Elements of Magic CD RN. The trade stands do a booming business on Gundog day, and many spectators arrive with wheelie carts or rolling suitcases in order to transport their stuff.

shiny ladies’ suits in a variety of colors, decorated with “genuine Swarovski crystals.” Suitable for the Garden, maybe, but not the shows that I go to!

Sunday was dedicated to the Working and Pastoral breeds. This is also a very big day for spectators, many of whom leave before Best In Show. While the word was that Sunday night was sold out, there were more than a few empty seats. The legendary Ferelilth Somerfield did the Working breeds, after having announced that she would retire from judging at the end of the year. She has previously judged all of the groups at Crufts, as well as Best In Show.

I was privileged to have taken a photo of “Feffie” after BIS judging, perhaps the last photo to be taken of this legendary lady on this significant occasion. Her choice for Best of Group was a lovely Bernese Mountain Dog, CH Meadowpark Whispers Breeze, owned by “Mesdames Mair and Hartley-Mair,” with reserve to the lovely Dutch Bouvier Farenheit From the Dogsfarm. This is a kennel that’s had group success at Crufts in previous years. Third and fourth place went to the Rottweiler CH Varenka Maximillion at Granjolea, and the multi-titled Bullmastiff CH Old Manila Little Mill from Norway.

After last year’s health check debacle, which resulted in a number of top-quality dogs being disqualified for what can only politely be called “questionable” issues, TKC wisely chose to have the official vets do the examinations, rather than placing an advertisement in the paper asking for volunteers, as was done last year. (Mr. Dean, what on earth were you thinking???) All remained quiet; no dogs were disqualified to my knowledge. With coat testing for “foreign substances” being in limbo for the time being, there wasn’t even the drama of hearing the poodle people saying, “Soand-so told me that they’re going to be testing poodles today! Everyone, brush the damn stuff out!” Apart from a reported bout of fisticuffs at the poodle ring, this year’s show was singularly lacking in drama. Not a bad thing, I guess.

Jeff Luscott did the Pastoral breeds. He started showing dogs in 1975, and has had success in Danes, Tervs and Belgian Sheepdogs. It was no surprise when he pointed to the Australian Shepherd bitch CH Allmark Fifth Avenue for Group One. She is owned by Mssrs. Allan and Harlow, and has been a big winner. A perusal of the Aussie entry makes clear just how significant American bloodlines have been in the development of this breed in the U.K. Miss D. Pearson and her blue merle Sheltie CH Edglonian Singin the Blues were second, with the very popular GSD CH Elmo Vom Huhnegrab in 74 Dog News

third. It was a good year for Old English, as CH Aryakas Genesis at Beauvallon took 4th place.

Breeders’ competitions are very popular in Europe and the U.K., and this year it was my good friend Michael Coad who was chosen to pass on the 50 teams of the breeders’ best. Michael started in Great Pyrenees, and then made an indelible mark in Standard Poodles and, more recently, Bichons. Even though Michael had pre-judged the competition earlier in the day, all of the teams are invited into the big ring. Handlers take care to dress in matching outfits, and dogs are gaited together, four abreast.

Michael gave the #1 spot to a lovely team of Berners, owned by the same mother-daughter team who owned the working group winner.

Geoff Corish is no stranger to dog fanciers, as he and partner Michael have for years been the top handling team in the U.K. as well as judging around the world.

Geoff and Michael have been dear friends of mine for nearly 20 years, and I was bursting with pride when Geoff took center stage on Sunday night for the grand finale. Geoff knows what it’s like to be in the Crufts spotlight; he has gone BIS twice, the first time in 1976 with the Westie CH Dianthus Buttons, and the second time with the Lhasa CH Saxonsprings Hackensak in 1984. Geoff had accepted the assignment to judge Westies in 2000, not knowing that the legendary CH Torum’s Scarf Michael would be a real contender for top honors that year. Thus, Mick was handled by Michael to Best In Show, and then went on to an amazing career in the U.S. in the very capable hands of Bill McFadden, who was at Crufts this year to judge the junior handling finals. Geoff is not only a top handler, but is also a very successful breeder of Westies, Lhasas, and now Bichons. In the past few years, Tibetan Terrier breeder Ken Sinclair talked Geoff and Michael into taking on a few British Miniature Horses, and the herd has now expanded to seven. Proving that a good handler can handle anything, Geoff piloted their young stallion William to Supreme Champion at his first show! Geoff, who is a regular contributor to Dog News, was fortunate to have in his ring one of the strongest line-ups I’ve ever seen at Crufts, and he gave each dog a thorough look, but eventually made his decision and extended a congratulatory hand to Gavin and the charismatic Jilly. Judging by the noise, it was a popular win. His Reserve Best In Show went to the lovely Italian Lab.

To Feffie Somerfield, I wish you all the best as you become the U.K.’s best known spectator. To Noel and Badger and the rest of the security team, thanks for protecting me from overzealous photographers. To my former editor Bill, thanks, as always. To all of my British friends, and those who come from such distant places as Russia, Israel, Belgium, Lithuania and Canada each year, I hope you enjoyed those four crazy, hectic days as much as I did. I’m already planning on one more trip to Birmingham.

Going Dogue If there is any breed at risk for being irreparably changed – and not in a good way – by generic judging, it is the Dogue de Bordeaux.

n many ways, true Dogue type is at odds with what is valued and promoted in that great cliché, the American show dog. The Dogue is built “rather close to the ground,” the standard reminds – never high on leg. On the move, he tends to drop his head, commensurate with his speed, to compensate for his great mass and breadth in the forehand – no flashy, “periscope-up” gaiting here. And while the hindquarters should be well angulated, overdone rears that put the hocks into the next county worsen toplines – always a structural battleground in this breed – and again depart from correct Bordeaux type.

Perhaps more than any other Molosser breed,

76 Dog News

the Dogue de Bordeaux has kept up its ties with its mother country: Its AKC standard was written in close collaboration with Prof. Raymond Triquet, considered the father of the modern Bordeaux and a household name in the breed, and serious American fanciers regularly make the pilgrimage to the Société des Amateurs de Dogues de Bordeaux’s annual show, the Nationale d’élevage, to compete in the ring d’honneur against some of the best-quality Dogues from France and beyond.

It should be no surprise, then, that whenever possible, Dogue de Bordeaux fanciers opt to have a European breed specialist adjudicating at their national specialty.

This year’s Dogue de Bordeaux Society of America National Specialty was held on Sunday, March 17, in conjunction with the Celtic Classic Cluster in York, Pennsylvania. Judging it for the

second time was Luis Pinto Teixeira of Portugal, a popular international judge whose most recent assignment on these shores was at the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship in December, where he judged the finals of the Eukanuba World Challenge.

T

hough he is an FCI all-rounder, Teixeira has a well-deserved reputation as a Dogue de Bordeaux specialist, having been invited to judge at the Holy Grail, the French Nationale d’élevage. In the mid-1990s, he gave a Best in Show to Multi-Ch. Belmondo the Red Powerpack, widely considered to be one of the most spectacular examples of the breed ever.

At the American national, Teixeira drew an entry of 79, with nine absentees. His Best in Specialty Show winner was MBISS GCh. Evergreen’s Rub My Belly at Rising Star (Ch. Rising Star’s Hugo Boss x Ch. Scarlet de Legeane), bred by Angie and Scott Reed, and owned by Jennifer Roberts and Lauren Parker. This was the second consecutive national-specialty win for “Buddha,” who took it last year under another respected European arbiter, Sylviane Tompousky, president of the French national

club. In his extemporaneous comments to the gallery after the ribbons were presented, Teixeira singled out Buddah’s “fantastic head” and “perfect topline.”

This capped a week-long winning streak for the 3½-year-old Dogue, who went Best of Breed every day at the York cluster, and won the parent club’s Top 20 event as well.

Best of Opposite Sex was GCh. Urszula Z Orisku (Ch. Moby de Legeane x Chiara De Ruisseau De La Noue), bred by Miroslav Schreiber in the Czech Republic and owned by Joy Chicatelli. “Urszula” was sired by one of the most celebrated Dogues in recent years, the Dutch-bred “Moby,” and was Select Bitch at last year’s national. Being a black mask, her placement so high in the ribbons sends a strong message that judges should consider black-mask Dogues just as seriously as they do their more popular red-mask counterparts.

If a judge understands correct Bordeaux head type, there is no way such Dogues can be confused with Bullmastiffs, which is sometimes unfairly used as a strike against them.

Select Dog was BISS GCh. Mount Sinai’s Crusader St. Amand (Rhodonite Romeo x Mount Sinai’s Pasha), bred and owned by Paula Duvall. “Crusader” was the nation’s top Dogue from 2010 to 2012, all systems, and is a national-specialty winner himself, in 2011 under Juergen Sauer of Germany. He was also the Dogue de

Bordeaux Society of America’s 2012 Sire of the Year.

Two of the show’s top placers were siblings, with the same sire as the Best in Specialty winner: Select Bitch Ch. Rising Star’s Jedi Mind Trick (Ch. Rising Star’s Hugo Boss x Ch. Tanakajd Szepe Zizi) and Award of Merit winner GCh. Rising Star’s I’ll Fly Away (Ch. Rising Star’s Hugo Boss x Ch. Tanakajd Szepe Zizi), both bred by Jennifer Roberts. “Jedi” is owned by Roberts and Ryan Bagg, and “Moses” by Pam and Victor Smith.

The other Award of Merit was given to Ch. Rozeldogue Mission Man at Cymrygold (Temple Felson x Krugarstaff Red Siren at Rozeldogue), bred by Ben Dunning in the United Kingdom and owned by Peter and Tracey Muth. The 7½-year-old “Denzil” was Best Veteran – a promising sign that longevity need not be compromised in a true-to-type Dogue de Bordeaux – as well as Best Stud Dog.

W

inners Dog and Best of Winners was Northland’s Devereaux (Udson De L’Tang de Mirloup x Ch. Northland’s Molly), bred

by Cindy McElderry and owned by Carole Saunders and Richard Larocque.

“Devereaux” took Winners at all three of the York shows, then finished at the national on Sunday. Winners Bitch and Best Bred By Exhibitor went to Pendragon’s First Lady Gwenevere (Ch. Von Hof’s Cisco Kid x Queen Sasha Bear), bred and owned by Tim and Julie Kelly, whose infant daughter, Tressa Jean, was the youngest fancier in attendance.

In other family affairs, Reserve Winners Dog Heart-

strings Kronos (GCh. Storm de Legeane x GCh. Urszula Z Orisku), bred by Joy Chicatelli and owned

by Alison Cushing, is a son of the Best of Opposite winner, who also took Best Brood Bitch. And Reserve Winners Bitch, Northland’s Cienna (Udson De L’Etang De Mirloup x Ch. Northland’s Molly), bred by Cindy McElderry and owned with her husband Mark, is a litter sister to the Winners Dog. Perhaps the only disappointing thing about this year’s national specialty was the scant number of judge observers in attendance. Other than Desi Murphy and two or three others, few judges came to watch from ringside. Perhaps this had something to do with the hard-to-find location, tucked in a corner of the far-flung York fairgrounds. (Luckily, American fanciers will have another chance to see Teixeira in action: He is scheduled to judge Dogues de Bordeaux in Santa Barbara this August.)

Though it took place at the same time and location as the all-breed show, the Dogue specialty was held separately in order to accommodate the parent club’s tradition of written critiques for each Dogue. Teixeira dictated a detailed assessment of each entry, which was available to exhibitors at the end of the show. The critiques will also eventually be posted on the club web site, www.ddbsa.org.

Speaking of the internet, an assortment of older videos of Teixeira as well as Raymond Triquet discussing the fine points of the Dogue de Bordeaux can be found on www.youtube.com. Though the production values are not exactly MGM quality and – in the case of Triquet – the jubilant whoops of off-screen French fanciers are a bit of a distraction, they are the next-best thing to watching a true Dogue expert at work within the confines of those little white gates.

van to the correct hotel.

The hotel is open-aired, one floor high, and human transport services me proudly through the check-in process, to my room, and back again to the lobby to meet colleagues for dinner in the hotel. The club hospitality letter has informed judges to meet in the hotel lobby at 7:15 AM with shuttle pickup at 7:30 AM and judging to start at 8:30. Judges will be served breakfast at the show site. Golf carts will be available to take judges from hospitality to their respective rings and back. If you choose to use human transport, that is fine---just don’t be late for your ring.

As I mentioned earlier, this day is special---my second Best-in-Show assignment. I made sure to pack the complete set of standards, stored in a thick, black, fake leather-looking case. The morning and early afternoon is comprised of judging various Sporting breeds. Upon completing the assignment and before the groups begin, I am approached by a familiar face from my youth. “Hi, Michael, it is so nice to see you--it’s been too long,” LMcD--- a high school friend---says while approaching. Prior to my arrival, we made plans, via fax-transmission, to connect at the show. LMcD is the Assistant Director and an Associate Professor at the local University. “Wow---it’s great to see you, too,” I respond. We continue for over two hours with various questions and remarks about our past, present, and future goals and aspirations. It’s great! The conversation is a pleasant and memory-jogging diversion while waiting for the groups to end and for my second Best-in-Show judging experience to begin.

“What won the Toy Group?” I ask LMcD. She answers and I pull the corresponding AKC standard for review. LMcD stays with me while six of the seven groups are judged.

She departs as the last group enters the ring. “You take care! If I don’t see you before you leave, it’s been great catching up. If you are ever back in the area plan on staying over an extra day and we will get together.”

“Sure thing,” I say while giving her a big hug before she retreats to the far side of the Best-in-Show ring. The last group judged is Sporting. Having judged most of those dogs at the breed level, I am relieved not to worry about breed-specific traits of the eventual winner and focus on the other six breed standards that I have pulled from the thick, black, fake leather-looking case.

The winner of the Sporting Group is selected. I find myself pacing outside the ring, waiting for my time in the sun. The Sporting Group judge’s human transport is a bit worn, tired, and over-heated---giving me a bit more time for reflection. I purchased a new suit for the occasion---summer lightweight wool, grey, white shirt, blue pattern tie, black shoes, and black belt. “Just remember---it’s better to look good than feel good,” I mutter to myself while entering the ring.

“How would you like your dogs to enter the ring?” the ring steward, a charming older lady (COL), whose apparent role in the club is to look good, to smile, and to be gracious, gently asks. “Please ask them to enter the ring, one at time and stop on the far side of the ring,” I instruct, pointing my hand to the far side of the ring. I take longer than necessary for the preliminary evaluation. The lineup consists of five really good examples of their respect breeds, one good one, and one that leaves me wondering, how in the Hell it ever finished…let alone, how it won the group.

T

he new grey suit, white shirt, blue pattern tie, black shoes, and black belt dazzle the eye in the glittering Arizona sun. I finish examining the last dog. “Please take them around the ring---one at a time. With intent, I watch each dog move across the closely cropped, manicured, and well irrigated lawn. I walk back to the judge’s table; I do not mark my judge’s book. I gently procure the Best in Show ribbon from the hands of COL. COL lifts the trophy from the table and follows to the center of the ring. “Take them around the ring, together---please!” I announce.

The group of seven canines parade for all--I pretend to move to the end of the line, throwing off the handlers’ perceptions and COL’s anticipation. I focus on the Terrier Group winner, proceed forward, but…

NO!!!...I whip around, side step and point to the winner of the Herding Group for--Best in Show.

I am pleased---the winner, a handsome dog, who looked, walked, and talked the breed standard, handled to perfection, and wins the ribbon. I mark the judges book with the appropriate winner and time. We all move to the staging area, outside of the large ring for photographs…the handler’s entourage frenetically making sure everything is perfect for the shoot. I stand tall, shoulders back, in my new grey suit, white shirt, blue pattern tie, black shoes, and belt and watch the mass exodus of judges, exhibitors, vendors, and committee members, who are being transported from the show

site. The photographer is calm, patient and takes her time in her attempt to capture the perfect winning shot. I smile…and smile… taking no notice as time passes on. Once finished, I check my watch---5:12 PM. “Great, I have plenty of time to get to the airport.

Need to gather my hard-sided brown Samsonite and make it happen,” I say to myself, feeling great after my second, Best-in-Show judging experience. I spot hard-sided brown Samsonite across the field, between a trash bin and the judge’s portable toilet. Using human transport, I proceed across the turf, collect hard-sided brown Samsonite and search for my mode of transportation to the airport.

Scanning my surroundings, I complete a full 360 degree turn. . I see no one other than the last remaining show superintendent’s road crew. They finish loading and leave, while I continue to search. I walk around, around, and around trying to find anyone who looks like a potential dog show judge’s navigator. “Unbelievable! I have a plane to catch and no one to transport me to the airport. I must have designated on my fax that no transportation to the airport, after Best in Show, will be necessary!!!” I spit out in an attempt to develop a back-up plan. Loosening my blue pattern tie from around my neck, I pull it loose, and then off, stuffing it into the new grey suit’s right pocket. I do not reach for my cell phone, as they do not yet exist.

Taking a deep breath, I perform another 360, and spot two young ladies playing tennis across the way. The distance is roughly five hundred yards. I arrive slightly winded, very frustrated, in need of understanding, water and a ride to the airport. “Excuse me, excuse me,” I politely yell from outside of the fenced tennis courtyard. The two young ladies look at my briefly, shrug their shoulders, and continue to play. “Ladies…excuse me. Can I talk to you? Please!” I plead. The taller of the two young ladies lowers her racquet, holds the tennis ball steady in her left hand, and begins to walk in my direction. The other young woman joins her. “Can we help you?” they say in unison. “I’m in a bit of a predicament. You see…I have been judging the dog show over there…” (I point to the adjacent field.) “After the Best-in-Show judging and photographs, I attempted to find my transport to the airport. There is no one around. It appears the kennel club has forgotten me.” I watch as the shorter of the two young ladies stares at the large judge’s ribbon/badge pinned to the lapel of my new grey suit. “You’re serious?” Tall, young tennis player states. “Yes…sadly, I am not joking. My plane departs in one hour and thirtytwo minutes and I really need to get to the airport. Is there any chance I could pay the two of you to take me?” I beg. The two young

Can you show us a professional dog show judge’s ID?” “Oh, for F*#&*#$@(#$ sake,” I retort---only in my brain---and say to the ladies, “Well, I am in the middle of a field, dressed in a grey suit, wearing a badge that says, “JUDGE”, carrying hard-sided brown Samsonite luggage, and here, here look ---this is a book of all the various AKC breed standards. So, you see, this is truly not NORMAL!” Damn…wishing I could take the last statement back, I continue to plead. “Listen! Are the two of you college students?” “Yes,” they respond. “OK, do you know a professor by the name of LMcD?” They both nod their heads in the affirmative.

“Great---the two of us went to grade school and high school together, back in New York State. We also spent time together earlier today at the dog show. If there is a way to find her, she will confirm that I am who I say I am. Please, I need your help.” The young ladies gather their belongings, walk across

the court, exit through the gate, and proceed my way. “We will take you. Stay here and we will pick you up in a few minutes.” The young girls depart and a small part of me…NO…A VERY LARGE part of me worries they will not return… leaving me stranded. Three minutes, twentyseven seconds later, the two young ladies pull up in a white, well-used Ford pickup truck.

“Toss your bag in the back and climb in,” the taller one declares from the driver’s side window. The shorter one slides over next to the tall one. I am careful to stay as close to the passenger door as possible, leaving plenty of room between. “Here, before we get to the airport, I would like you to have this,” I tender. I hand two twenty-dollar bills to the ladies. “No! That is just fine. We are happy to help,” the short one announces. I place the two bills in the open ashtray and there is no attempt to shove them back in my pocket. The conversation quickly changes to their personal family dogs, their favorite dogs, and their perception of what dog shows are like. The two of them take control of the conversation, leaving me as the passive listener, and the gentle professional.

The line is a bit full. I have time to reflect on…all the emotional crap that goes with winning, losing and money. Modes of dog show transport…car, van, box truck, mega truck, motor coach, rail, water, air and…I continue to wait…“to be carried away with strong feelings”--meaning---“to carry away into banishment.”

The Allergy Diet - Part One In A Series On Allergies Continued FROM page 46

ALLERGIES CHANGE OVER TIME Can allergies be outgrown? Yes. They can also change over time as the allergic reaction targets different parts of the body. I started out as a child with skin eczema and irritable bowel syndrome, had seizures in my twenties, chronic bronchitis in my thirties, a lip ulceration in my forties, and now have nasal allergies. The basic problem (which is allergy caused inflammation) is the same. But the symptoms change as the targeted location moves around my body.

Due to a dog’s short life span we usually only need to treat one or two symptoms in their lifetime.

WHEN YOU WANT ANTIBODIES: THE VACCINATION RESPONSE That antibodies decrease over time is the reason why not all vaccinations give lifetime immunity and why occasional booster shots are needed. What they boost are the antibody levels targeted to the vaccine.

Most vaccines closely resemble the viruses they target, but are different enough so they don’t cause illness.

Sometimes scientists get lucky and find a disease that can produce antibodies that can target a much more serious disease.

That happened when it was discovered that milkmaids, who were often exposed to cow pox, developed immunity to small pox. That discovery led to the development of the first vaccines. Now companies either kill the virus to make the vaccine, or they grow the virus for generations in another host (like eggs), until it adapts itself to that host and is no longer capable of making us-or our dogs-sick. But the modified virus still resembles the original virus enough to trigger the production of antibodies that can fight the original virus.

DON’T FEED THE SAME DIET FOREVERCHANGE OCCASIONALLY Since exposure is what leads to the build up of antigens, allergies can be helped by a simple change of kibble. That reaction is one of the reasons that many owners see an improvement in their dog’s health whenever they change to a new food. It results in glowing testimonials for some foods. But many kibbles contain identical ingredients, so a change may not help. And nearly all of them contain the same long list of additives. If the dog is allergic to the additives, then you will have to resort to home cooking or a BARF diet.

THE BASIC ALLERGY DIET First you stabilize the dog on a two ingredient allergy diet until he is symptom free.

There is nothing magic about lamb and rice. I use it because Dr. Rowe used it on 84 Dog News

his patients at a time when few people ate lamb and rice.

(If your dog is allergic to rice: In recommending this diet for years now, I have encountered only one dog that was allergic to rice. That dog was violently allergic and wound up in an emergency clinic within days of starting on rice. Dogs become allergic to foods that they eat. With the recent popularity of lamb and rice kibble, more dogs are becoming allergic to lamb and rice. I avoid feeding kibble that contains lamb or rice, saving those two foods for my allergy kids. If you have been feeding lamb and rice kibble you may have to pick a different protein and carbohydrate source. And you may have to try more than one.)

Once you find an allergy diet to find one that makes the dog’s symptoms go away, then you add one ingredient at a time. If the dog stays symptom free for two weeks then that new ingredient becomes part of his diet and another ingredient is tried.

I start with lamb and rice and then add other kinds of meat first, either chicken or beef.

The basic allergy diet contains one protein source. Choices are: Lamb Chicken Beef Turkey Well cooked pork (Undercooked pork can carry a fatal dog disease called pseudorabies)

Horsemeat Goat Salmon Mackerel Sardines Duck Rabbit Eggs Cheese Cottage cheese If you are a big game hunter then you can add deer, elk, moose, antelope and bear to the list. Your wife might prefer that you feed game to the dogs, rather than have her cook it.

The second ingredient is a single carbohydrate source. Choices are: Rice Corn Oats Barley Quinoa Wheat Yams Winter squash

If you are using the basic allergy diet for growing puppies, or for adults for an extended period, (I have kept dogs on it for several years.) I would add a ¼ teaspoon full of powdered bone meal occasionally. For puppies I give raw knuckle bones and goat’s milk as a calcium source. But for the two weeks needed to test for food allergies with a two-ingredient diet, you are not going to run into nutritional deficiencies. I haven’t run into any nutritional deficiencies in dogs that have been on this diet for a year or more.

IS IT HARD TO GET DOGS TO EAT THIS DIET? No. Every dog that I have fed it to has dived into it with enthusiasm.

IS IT A PAIN TO PREPARE? Somewhat. Mostly it takes planning and more time than just dishing out kibble. To prepare it I keep a large pot of cooked rice in the refrigerator. I cook the ground lamb in a large electric frying pan and then add the cooked rice so it absorbs the meat juices. In order to use lamb hearts (or liver for training treats) I boil those and then cook rice in the water that the lamb was cooked in, and add diced cooked heart afterwards.

IS IT EXPENSIVE? You can buy a lot of rice and ground lamb for the price of one visit to your veterinarian. And with premium kibbles selling for over $1/pound, rice is much cheaper than kibble. That balances out the price of the more expensive ground meat. The price for the diet averages out to not much more than a high-class kibble.

ARE ALLERGIES INHERITED? Yes they are. What is inherited is not the specific type of allergy. My sister and I have different symptoms. She had asthma and ulcerative colitis. I have had eczema, chronic bronchitis, seizures, and an irritable bowel. What we share is a genetic predisposition to allergies. What is inherited is an overactive immune system with the tendency to form antibodies to inappropriate substances. So the expression of the allergy may change over the generations as the allergic reaction targets different locations in the body. Don’t confuse the varied symptoms with the cause.

Dog breeding is an example of artificial selection of breeding stock. I choose not to breed any dog that displays serious allergic symptoms as a young adult.

2013 Affenpinscher Club of

By Letisha Wubbel

A

united Affenpinscher Club Of America, with a newly elected board, gathered on March 2428 at the Tarheel Cluster in North Carolina for the breed’s National Specialty. The weekend was filled with Affenpinscher related events that included grooming seminars, judging seminars, a banquet, and photo opportunities with the Westminster Best in Show winner “Banana Joe.” Affenpinscher fanciers came from all over

the country to learn about and celebrate the “Monkey Dog.” With an entry of over 60 dogs the national specialty was the highlight of the weekend. Judge David Kirkland selected GCH Tamarin Tarheel as best of breed, who went on to place second in the toy group. GCH Tamarin Tarheel won best of breed one of the other five days, while CH Yarrow’s Hi-Tech Ben There Done That won the other three days.

This year’s national was dedicated to the memory of long time club member and breeder, Terry Graham. An active club member since 1989, she was a breed historian that knew absolutely everything about the history of the Affenpinscher. Additionally, she served as the club’s secretary and as the editor of the club’s

America National Specialty newsletter. Friday, following best in show, professional handler Ernesto Lara conducted a fantastic Affenpinscher grooming seminar for interested club members. Ernesto is well known for his trimming abilities but, his patience and willingness to share what he knows really benefitted everyone in attendance.

He worked with owners and their Affenpinschers to help everyone show their dogs in the best possible condition. Saturday morning started with an Affenpinscher Judging Seminar presented

by Pam Peat. Several judges attended the informative seminar where 6 different dogs were present for teaching people about the breed standard. Saturday night the club hosted the largest banquet in breed history. An auction of Affenpinscher related items was very popular

and raised a lot of money for the club. The highest selling item was donated by the late Affenpinscher fancier Candye Slay. Before her passing, she created gift bags of “monkey” themed items for all of the entries at the national. GCH Banana Joe V Tani Kazari, known affectionately as “Banana Joe,” has put Affenpinschers in the national spotlight by winning Best in Show at Westminster Kennel Club and finishing the year as the top toy dog. The somewhat obscure Affenpinscher has become an overnight sensation evident by a very large group of spectators around the Affenpinscher ring each day. The Affenpinscher Club was fortunate when Ernesto Lara agreed to bring “Banana Joe” to Raleigh and do a meet-n-greet and photo op with fans. All of the proceeds were divided between the club’s general fund and Affenpinscher rescue.

Everyone enjoyed the opportunity to meet the celebrity they had seen on TV and the news. It has been a very exciting year to be an Affenpinscher fancier! The club is looking forward to an equally successful national specialty in Hot Springs, Arkansas in 2014.

The Upside of The Seesaw Continued FROM page 30

automatically put them in the computer for their scoring and instantaneously sent to myself and the announcer in the booth to know who was in the ring. The announcer, Anna Jonsson, is incredible in her ability to talk for three solid days and maintain a great sense of humor and call the challenges on the course and the action as it happens. All dogs in ring one were announced and bios read, which encompassed all heights for the weekend, again due to meticulous scheduling by the reps to make sure everyone had their time in the spotlight. The challengers round and finals round on Sunday also featured another new innovative feature; the overhead Jumbotron which showed the name of the handler, dog and breed running so everyone in the huge arena knew who they were.

F

or the first time a warm up round was offered to all exhibitors but not mandatory, almost all exhibitors entered. Round 1 was the new Time2Beat class that has become so popular and all entered it on Friday as it gave the winner of each height a guaranteed entry into the finals as well as counting toward their title if they qualified. Round 2 and 3 were held on Saturday and they were a standard run and jumpers run, again all entered this as well as the hybrid round 4 on Sunday morning, which started at 6:30 AM. The cumulative score of the rounds 2-4 were calculated and it determined who would run in Round 5 of challengers round and the finals round. The challengers round is a go for broke run because only the winner will be moved into the finals round. This is exciting and the crowds are loud and supportive. The cheering moved on into the finals round that determined who the new champions would be. In the preferred division, the dogs that jump one height lower, I found the runs were much faster dogs than last year, which shows the quality of the program is advancing as these usually are the older dogs. It was won by a Toy Fox Terrier, Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Border Collie, Border Collie, Labrador Retriever.

The final championship round was outstanding in the quality of the dogs and handlers. The 8” division was

88 Dog News

won by a Papillon, 12” by a Shetland Sheepdog, 16” by a Border Collie, 20” by a Border Collie, 24” by an All American dog, 26” by Border Collie. Often the dog second in the class was only one hundredths behind the winner and in one case one thousandths behind.

The cross over from agility to obedience was relatively small but fun to see that one of the competitors had to run first in the challengers round in order to be in the finals in the obedience ring with her Flat Coated Retriever. There were 26 All American Dogs and the largest number of a breed was the Border Collie (345) and followed by the Shetland Sheepdog (203). One of the new breeds to me was the Swedish-Danish Farmdog which was medium sized and fast as well as the Catahoula Leopard Dog. There were 104 different breeds. One of the dogs competing had an amazing MACH 23. There was a mixed breed with a MACH 4 which is the highest recorded. Another amazing and wonderful thing to watch was the gal in the 16” class that ran with wrist brace crutches and only one leg and another in the 26” class; both did well. The most entries from one state once again was California at 153 with Texas close behind with 150.

There were special features at these Nationals that had not been offered previously such as the Random Acts of Kindness award. Anyone could nominate a recipient who they watched do an act of kindness. The 3 winners had great stories and received a beautiful necklace from Dazzling Paws Jewelry. Another was the drawing for a new mini iPad just for signing up for a dog cancer research fund-raiser that didn’t require a donation but did require your email to be contacted later.

The 2013 AKC Agility Nationals was very successful and I can’t wait for next year, but unfortunately due to contract negotiations not completed and in lawyers’ hands, next year’s location could not be announced as is the tradition.

It was very gratifying to see the Delegates realize that the future of AKC needs to be updated and visionary and younger. The passing of the vote to allow agility clubs to have Delegates was an overwhelming yes with only 12 dissenting votes it was reported. I so wish those clubs’ names would be published as it would be interesting to know if they derive income from agility trials to maintain their coffers.

In the Arizona sun, nothing’s hotter than...

he committee that was organized last year by the American Kennel Club to over see the procedure for new and additional breed judges met in Raleigh this past week to discuss the judging procedure that is in place at the moment.

ndeed the total number of all-breeds Beckham has to his credit so far is 122 and that was with limited campaigning in 2012 to boot. The fact is that he was actively campaigned by the well known and respected husband-wife team of Linda and Michael Pitts for only two years--2012 and 2011 and six months into 2012. He has been exhibited sparingly since then but conquered all at the very prestigious 2013 Spaniel Club held in Knoxville, Tennessee to the thrill of his co-owners Bruce Van Deman, Carolee Douglas, Mary Walker, Cindy Cassidy and breeder and co-owner Linda Moore. Just to give you an idea of the background and breeding experience of this consortium of owners a total of 120 years combines the experience and devotion of these people in and to the breed of the Spaniel (Cocker) Black. What an achievement and what a history behind this dog!!

Don’t you agree? And then combine that fact with an exuberant and magnificent show animal and handlers extraordinaire of this breed and variety and success is basically assured and most predictable. D Magazine warmly welcomes Beckham into this group of illustrious and famous show dogs!

And now to prove how imperfect I actually am is the fact that I failed to list the achievements of the Giant Schnauzer, only the second exhibit from the Working Group--the first being the Doberman Cryptonite, as a Member of the 100 Club. I refer of course to Ch. Galilee’s Pure of Spirit a bitch which was the number one exhibit all-breed in 2008 and certainly one of the great show dogs of her time if not of the century. She earned the honor of the 100 Club membership in 2008 which was the year she was awarded the Working Group at the Big W in a performance which to this day has the aficionados in awe! The bond between this bitch and her handler Taffy McFadden

For

was one of the all-time relationships which existed between dog and handler but who amongst us can resist the talent and charm of Taffy? I know I can’t! She was owned by Maryann Biscaglia and Mary Hayes as well as the renowned husband wife team of Carla and Joe Sanchez in the latter part of her career.

Bred by Maryann she was a one of a kind exhibit and I apologize to all for having failed to report this achievement when it first occurred.

Malachy was the only exhibit to be so honored in 2011 and one has to go back to 2005 when the last Peke earned this distinction.

That dog exhibited by David as well was Eng. and Am. Ch. Yakee If Only. David discovered the latest top winner from the PalaceGarden Pekes whilst judging the Ventura Pekingese Championship show in the UK in May of 2008.

Unlike in America where David is occupationally ineligible to judge, the British encourage talented and experienced breeders from all over the world to judge at the shows they hold. This was a great experience for David as the entry was 117 dogs, the largest entry of the year next to Crufts! A lesson perhaps for AKC to digest as years ago professional handlers were permitted to judge Specialty shows in the US. Perhaps our own priorities in this area should be re-evaluated if indeed it is the intent of those running these shows to truly find the best breeding stock instead of being so concerned with filling judging slots with less experienced breeders. Most of David’s winners at this show were PalaceGarden Pekes and when he got home he contacted the Smiths and asked them to send him a dog after carefully researching the pedigrees.

He asked them if they had any stock available and in June of 2009 Malachy arrived as a five-month-old puppy sight unseen by David. The rest is of course history as this little dog so correct in type, small, compact and unadulterated, shouting Pekingese arrived at Newark Airport. To say that Malachy stole the hearts of the American dog show world is to understate the case and his Best in Show at the famed Morris and Essex Show clearly cemented him as one of the great Pekes of our time. Co-owned by Sandra Middlebrooks and Iris Love, with David, both ladies are wonderful clients with whom to work. Ever mindful of the importance the role of handler plays in exhibiting dogs, Sandra Middlebrooks and her husband Butler rely on David’s decisions, always saying, “David, whatever you think is best--you know what you are doing.” An attitude other clients would do well to learn from as Mrs. Middlebrooks has evolved into one of the premier sponsors of the best of purebred dogs. What a team--what a Peke-- and you better believe there will be more to come--for sure.

For the first time since the establishment of the 100 Club a Smooth Fox Terrier has accomplished this incredible feat.

The 100 Club

Becoming the 29th exhibit to accomplish this incredible feat GCH J’Cobe Kemosabe Vigilante Justice, affectionately called Dodger, became the 29th dog in history to achieve the esteemed honor of 100 or more Best in Shows. Indeed this dog, which was also the Number One exhibit All-Breed for the year 2010, actually recorded 105 All-Breed Bests. A grandson of the record-breaking Ch. Broxden Rio Oso Best Dressed (Tux), his pedigree is one to simply blow you away, with some of the most outstanding show and stud dogs and dams dominating throughout. One of the things which makes Dodger’s feat all the more phenomenal is the fact that today in America the Smooth Fox Terrier breed is one of the strongest in the world as specials class after specials class are marked by unusually high quality. Certainly the highlight of any Montgomery is to watch Smooths where in 2008 Dodger finished his championship by being awarded Winners Dog and Best of Winners at the Specialty that year and was Best of Breed at Montgomery the following year, too. He broke the record for Smooth Fox Terriers in August, which was previously set at 70. But Dodger certainly could not have accomplished his incredible feats alone and fortunately for all involved a team was formed headed by Amy and Phil Booth, who formed and created his amazing career. Tux was brilliantly handled by Amy and so it was only natural for her to continue with his Grandson, which collaboration resulted in Amy as co-owner and handler with Howard and Sandra Hoffen as co-owners, as they were with Tux as well. Now at just 3 1/2 years of age everyone involved is looking forward to contributing to the Broxden/J’Cobe/ Kemosabe breeding program. Bill Dalling of J’Cobe and Stacy Turner of Kemosabe Smooths, the breeders, have combined with the Hoffens and Booths to form one of the most formidable teams of owners and breeders in the sport of dogs. DOG NEWS enthusiastically welcomes Dodger and his team as members of the DOG NEWS 100 Club.

As the first decade of the millennium century came to a close two more exhibits, both American bred bitches, became members of the prestigious and highly regarded 100 Club bringing the total number of dog membership to 27! Both the Standard Poodle Ch. Randenn Tristar Affirmation (whose call name is Yes) and the Scottish Terrier Ch. Roundtown Mercedes of Maryscot (whose call name is Sadie) were handled by two of the more respected and expert of professional handlers whose reputations in their breed and group are of what legends are made. Both Tim Brazier, Yes’ handler, and Gabriel Rangel, Sadie’s handler, are among the most respected dog men of our day, and it is particularly fitting that these honors have been earned and recognized by these teams of handlers and dogs. And as important and necessary as these recognitions are let us not forget the people and the history of both the breeders and owners of these two great exhibits.

In

Yes is the fourth Standard Poodle to earn the bragging rights to be called a member of this great club preceded in time by her grandfather Ch. Lake Cove That’s My Boy and her great-great-grandfather Ch. Whisperwind On Carousel. This kind of amazing use of line breeding by her breeders Randy Garren and Dennis McCoy (and co-breeders the Laceys) is a solid example of what dog breeding should be all about – a careful selection and understanding of lines and genes which result in improving a breed carefully, selectively and healthily. Her owners Toni and Martin Sosnoff of Atalanta poodle fame have been long time concerned breeders of the Poodle and together with Tim and Yes have formed one of the most formidable and trustworthy teams of people and dogs to have been developed in the modern dogworld age. Teams like this are what help perpetuate our sport in the long run, and I am happy to say that the “Sadie team” falls into a similar category as the team developed through the “Yes” relationship.

Sadie is now the second Scottish Terrier to join the club, both bitches, and of course has set her mark both nationally and internationally. Competently and ably conditioned and handled by Gabriel Rangel she is an outstanding show animal whose presence is expected to be continued in the near future for sure.

Gabriel of course has matured into one of the most respected and consulted terrier men in America, if not the world, whose opinion of a dog is solicited near and far. Combine this with the acknowledged breeding talents of Anstamm Kennels and Mary O’Neal (Anstamm of course being the team of Cindy Cooke and Buffie Stamm) and you have magical results insofar as the breeding of Scotties are concerned. And on the subject of magical of course are Sadie’s owners, the Mussers, Amelia and Dan. To say that they are two of the nicest people in the sport is to understate the situation; but of interest, of course, is the background of Mr. Musser whose uncle George Hartman was one of the most respected judges in America in the ‘40s and a director of AKC as well.

Considering the backgrounds of these dogs, their owners and their breeders all of which and whom are steeped in the long term values and traditions of our sport one would have to conclude that not only is our conformation world growing stronger by encouraging dog show competitions but that the dogs and teams of people associated with them are adding allure and strengthening the foundation of the sport itself. Welcome “Yes” and “Sadie” to the 100 Club!

exhibits to become a 100 Club member. Of particular interest in the case of Ch. Cookieland Seasyde Hollyberry, now the top winning Sporting dog of all time in terms of Bests, is the comparatively short period of time she had been campaigned in order to achieve this amazing accomplishment. Holly as she is called began her show career in late 2007 and was not campaigned in earnest until March of 2008. This is probably the shortest time period in our history for an exhibit to have gained this monumental honor. And candidly up until the AKC/Eukanuba National Event she had never been flown to compete in a dog show! Imagine an American dog not only winning close to 90 shows in one year but also competing to become the number two exhibit all-breed without having earned one advantage mile for the handlers Michael and Michelle Scott until the

The 100 Club

last month of the year. That’s got to tell you the regard with which Holly has been held by the American judging community.

Watching Holly in action in the show ring is a very special experience as she never has for one moment let handler Mike Scott down. But as importantly is her attitude out of the show arena. Pointers do not have the reputation for being the steadiest of animals in crowded social situations. As a former owner of the breed I feel safe in making that generalized kind of statement. But I can tell you without hesitation this is not the case with Holly. After her glorious, well-earned and deserved National win she was introduced to the throngs of people celebrating the two-day event at the after show party. To the great credit of her breeders Cheryl Laduc, A. Cantor & A. Walker and of course her owners Sean and Tammy McCarthy and Helyne Medeiros, she walked into this buzzing room, took one look around and owned the place! Visiting table after table and one celebrant after the other as though they were long lost friends, while totally off her leash, she made friends of everyone. If ever one doubted a dog’s ability to captivate and mesmerize a roomful of over 200 partying people just keep in mind the story of Holly on that night.

When I wrote in the 2007 ‘D’ “100 Club” article that many exhibits were on the threshold of entering the elusive “100 Club”, the toy poodle Ch. Smash JP Win a Victory with “only” 38 all-breed bests in show in 2006, was not high in my mind as a likely entrant.

But Vikki, as she is called, defied all odds by winning 67—yes, that’s right, 67!—all breed bests in 2007, becoming the 23rd exhibit in AKC history to earn this coveted distinction. Furthermore, she is the first and only exhibit to achieve this distinction since 2005. She now has a total of 105 all breed bests as we go to press. And guess what… this incredible show animal and truly great toy poodle is still going strong! Of interest to many people, of course, is that AKC did not officially award the Best in Show rib-

bon until 1925, so that the span is over an actual period of 82 years in which, including Vikki’s award, only a total of 22 other exhibits have earned such a distinction.

Personally, I am particularly pleased with her achievements, since I spotted her in the classes as a mere puppy and immediately asked Kaz Hosaka, her handler, about her. The rest, of course, is history. Bred in Japan by the most successful of breeders, Yukiko Omura of Smash Kennels, whose toy poodles are internationally acclaimed. She is an unstoppable show dog with an exquisite attitude. Her very presence demands your attention, and to deny her is indeed a most difficult task. Of course, Vikki is handled by one of the master handlers and craftsmen of our time, the aforementioned Kaz Hosaka. Originally mentored by Annie and Jim Clark, Kaz has earned the role of mentor himself! Today Kaz helps set the world standard in the presentation and exhibition of all poodles—toy, miniature, and standard. He is a unique, loving caretaker of all his dogs, and in my opinion, one of the leaders within the professional handling community.

This having been said, my not yet mentioning the owner of Vikki until now is done for a particular reason. The owner, of course, is Ron Scott. The reason I wanted to write about Vikki and Kaz first was to emphasize the dog aspect of the “100 Club.” The human and practical side involves one of the great (and I use the word “great” deliberately) owner-handler teams of our time. You know as well as I that it takes more than just money to put a dog over. How many people do we all know who have attempted to buy their way into our sport, only to fall flat on their you know what?

Ron Scott has been involved for years and has remained committed to both dogs and to Kaz for what seems an eternity. This team has developed an unusual rapport and a friendship grounded in a loyalty hard to find in most client-handler relationships. Ron and Kaz stand out as a team for us all to admire and respect.

“D” Magazine warmly welcomes Vikki, Kaz, and Ron to the prestigious “100 Club!”

English and American Champion Yakee If Only, earned the distinct honor of becoming a member of the 100 Club! The years 2004 & 2006 saw no new entrants, but in 2005, Jeffrey, as this exhibit is called, racked up his 124th All-Breed Best in Show, to the delight of his owner, Kit Woodruff, and his handler, David Fitzpatrick.

Lest one wonder about this dog’s credentials, keep in mind that he was number one exhibit All-Breed for the year 2005 and became the first Toy exhibit in history to defeat over 100,000 other exhibits in one year.

Watching

Holly in action in the show ring is a very special experience as she never has for one moment let handler Mike Scott down.

102 Dog News

In 2004, Jeffrey was number 2 All-Breed but had the most All-Breed Bests for the calendar year, with 58. His 64 All-Breed Bests in 2005 set a new record for Toy Dogs in a single year. And, yes, I failed to point out that these feats were accomplished in less than a two-year time period.

His first show was late in January of ’04, when, of course, he was awarded Best, and this past January Jeffrey just turned four years of age! Those are some pretty incredible figures to appreciate, but his lineage is equally as dazzling to every respectable breeder. This is particularly true

In2003,

was fearful that in America he would not be understood because he was “too Pekey and too typey.” As far as David was concerned, this dog had nothing generic about him, but was, in fact, the perfect representative of what makes a Peke “different than any other dog.” He was delightedly surprised and happy to be wrong in these fears, as quite obviously, the American judges took to Jeffrey as one of their own. Welcome to the 100 Club, Jeffrey, David and Kit! In 2003, Ch. Yakee Leaving Me Breathless At Franshaw won his 100th All-Breed Best in Show award in an amazing 17-month period of time. “Les,” as this British import is called, is truly a storybook dog. Since his “breathless” debut in February 2002 in New York, where he was awarded Best of Breed at the Garden, he became the first Pekingese to break a 45-year-old record held by the famous Ch. Chik T’Sun of Caversham for the most All-Breed Best in Shows to be awarded a Pekingese. As of this writing, Les has a total of 113 All-Breed Bests. Interestingly, his breeders, A. Easdon and P. Martin, showed and breed the Crufts 2002 Best in Show winner as well. The Yakee Kennel prefix is known worldwide as one of the most respected breeding programs ever designed. Les has only added to this reputation as the cognoscenti as well as the lay individual continue to recognize this exhibit’s outstanding attribute.

by Hiram Stewart, this team of individuals combines to make one of the most formidable owner/handler teams in America today. Under Hiram’s expert guidance and conditioning, Les’s rapid rise was eagerly anticipated. That this exhibit succeeded in reaching the pinnacle of success it did came as no surprise to those of us in the dog world who recognize quality on both ends of the leash.

Without too much fear of being contradicted, I think it is safe to say that the additions that achieved membership in the coveted DOG NEWS 100 Club in the year 2002 are two of the best-known exhibits to have ever competed on the American dog show circuit. Both were the Top Winning dog of the year in terms of points accumulated—the Bichon Frise in 2000 and the Kerry Blue terrier in 2001. I refer, of course, to Ch. Special Times Just Right, the Westminster and AKC/Eukanuba 2001 victor, and Ch. Torum’s Scarf Michael, the Crufts 2000 and Montgomery 2001 victor. Both dogs were and remain internationally recognized and have had myriad American followers both within and outside of the Fancy. With the growth of the sport being encouraged by continuously growing TV coverage in many homes, both “JR”—the Bichon—and “Mick”—the Kerry—have become as familiar as sports or movie star names.

Let’s start with JR. When he was awarded Best at Westminster it, was his 98th all-breed achievement. He was exhibited three more times and won his 100th Best at the

Ch. Yakee Leaving Me Breathless At Franshaw won his 100th All-Breed Best in Show award in an amazing 17-month period of time.

The 100 Club

in these days of the so-called “designer dogs,” whose breeders are attempting to pass off their own creations as purebreds, when, in fact, anyone involved in any form of animal husbandry is aware that these dogs are purely of a mixed-breed lineage.

Let’s talk a little about Jeffrey and the fact that his sire, Eng. Ch. Yakee Dangerous Liaisons, was the Crufts 2003 Best in Show winner, and that his kennelmate, Ch. Yakee Leaving Me Breathless (Les, as he was called), broke into the 100 Club in 2003 as well. And if you were wondering whether there is a common denominator in both of these dogs’ pedigrees, the answer is a resounding yes.

The exhibit Eng. Ch. Yakee For Your Eyes Only is that individual. The success as breeders of the owners of the Yakee kennel prefix, Albert (Bert) Easdon and Phillip Martin, is world-renowned. Nigel Aubrey-Jones and Bill Taylor introduced me to Bert years and years ago at a show in the U.K. The Yakee kennel is located in Glasgow, Scotland, and the over-25 years of successfully breeding Pekingese is the hallmark of their dog life achievements.

But as we all know, it takes an awful lot to put a top-winning dog over in America. Kit Woodruff, who is a native of Colorado and who presently lives outside of Houston, has been a patron and owner of Pekes (and other dogs) for more than the past 10 years. She wisely selected as her handler the longtime involved, knowledgeable and very well liked professional handler David Fitzpatrick to work with her. This was to both show Jeffrey and to develop her own breeding program. David I have known from his working days—first with Hermine Cleaver and then Mrs. Walter (Kay) Jeffords. While he started working for Hermine at the tender age of 14, it was in the Jeffords era that he fully blossomed and gained the dog knowledge for which he is so well known. With over 250 dogs of various breeds to work with at Mrs. Jeffords’ famed Chinatown Kennels (the great majority of which were Pekes), he became steeped in understanding animal husbandry to a degree few people in the dog world can lay claim to. This kind of invaluable exposure is what makes him a true dog person, entitled to at least one Group should he decide to judge, wouldn’t one think!

As for Jeffrey, when David first saw him, he

is the fact that both are proving to be great sires, thereby only improving considerably the future for both the Bichon and the Kerry Blue terrier.

We were delighted to announce in 2001 the addition of an American Toy exhibit, Ch. Ta-Jon’s Tickle Me Silly, a Maltese, who has reached this incredible pinnacle and has now a total of 103 all-breed Best in Shows. A multiple National Specialty Show winner, Silly, as she is called, was also Winners Bitch at her National at only 14 months of age. Tammy and John Simon bred her seven years ago. Since her retirement she has whelped three litters and is the proud producer of champion get. A credit to the breeding program of Tammy and John, which started in 1989. The “Ta-Jon” prefix is established internationally as breeders of quality Maltese. Tammy personally handled this incredible bitch throughout her career. In 1998 she broke the record for Toy exhibits by amassing over 60,000 all-breed points.

This record, in turn, was broken by a sharing Cross Shih Tzu two years later.

Tickle Me Silly was owned and campaigned throughout her career by Samuel and Marion Lawrence. Sam and Marion now have the unheard total of four members of the DOG NEWS 100 Club!!! In addition to Silly, they owned the Doberman Pinscher Ch. Brunswig’s Cryptonite, the Wire Fox Terrier bitch Ch. Registry’s Lonesome Dove and the Black Cocker Spaniel Ch. La-Shay’s Bart Simpson. It is unlikely that this kind of ownership will ever be achieved in our dogs exhibited by lifetime again. In addition the Lawrence’s through June 13, 2001 have been awarded 707 all-breed Best in Shows with all of their dogs! What a mind-boggling accomplishment.

As a further point, three more exhibits entered the elusive 100 or more all-breed Best in Show Club since 1999. A Standard Poodle Dog, which was number one dog all breed two years in a row (1998 and 1999), Ch. Lake Cove That’s My Boy, was awarded his 169th Best, while the Lakeland Terrier Bitch. Ch. Revelry’s Awesome Blossom was awarded her 100th. Another member of the “Club” which had been retired for motherhood in 1996 was brought out in April of 1999 and increased her all-breed bests from 133 to 161. She was the Afghan Hound bitch Ch. Tryst of Grandeur. And last but not least was the incredible and great show dog Ch. Anasazi Billy The Kid. Billy is owned by Bruce Schwartz and was handled by Wood Wornall. Billy was awarded his 100th Best in January 1999

The 100 Club

prestigious Long Beach June show in a fiercely fought competition against Mick. He was exhibited one more time at the first AKC/Eukanuba Invitational, where once again he prevailed. While Mick did not compete, as most of you very well know, the breed and group competition at this show was highly competitive for not only were there great “bragging” rights involved, but both the breeder and owner received monetary awards of over $25,000 each! JR was the sort of showdog who never let his handler, Scott Sommer, down in the ring.

He was always up and totally reliant as a performer— indeed, some may say overly extroverted, but this was said positively. Indeed, this very attitude is strongly supported by the Bichon Frise standard itself. Eleanor McDonald, who had the good fortune to see him win the Westminster event before, sadly, passing away prior to the Invitational, bred JR. Unfortunately another co-owner, Flavio Werneck, met an untimely death three months prior to the Big W. The happy news, of course, is that the third coowner—and if truth be known, the force behind JR’s career—was the gracious and lovely Cecelia Ruggles.

Ceil and Scott have formed one of the most powerful and respected owner/handler teams within the history of our modern day sport, and JR now lives, most happily, at home with Scott in Houston.

Mick, of course, is a British import who had mesmerized the dog show goers in the U.K. His victory at Crufts capped his career cross the pond. As of this writing he has 109 all-breed Best in Shows and is still being exhibited, seemingly on a somewhat random basis.

He is now six years old and was first shown in the States when he was four. He captured the hearts of most American terrier people in his initial California outing and continues to captive people today. On occasion his performance may have been somewhat erratic; however, when he is on, he is tough to beat. His handler, who has done an incredible job of presenting him here in America, is Bill McFadden. When Marilu Hansen brought Mick over from England, there was some talk that Mick might not have been able to withstand the pressure of American campaigning. Obviously the British show circuit and ours is totally different, and the American circuit much more demanding. Nonetheless, and I believe through the good works of Bill, the dog basically held up 95 percent of the time. Personally, I am not too sure how successful other American handlers would have been with Mick, since I saw him in England on numerous occasions—sometimes he showed well; others not so well. And that takes nothing away from the British handler Geoff Corish, who did a great job with him, particularly since the dog was truly a housedog of breeder Ron Ramsay and his family. It’s one thing when a dog stays with the handler all of the time; another when it’s brought the day of the show or a day before for trimming.

There is no doubt that JR and Mick will go down in history, both in the U.K. and in the States, as two of our greatest show dogs of all time. And perhaps even more importantly to the sport of purebred dogs

There

is no doubt that JR and Mick will go down in history, both in the U.K. and in the States, as two of our greatest show dogs of all time.

Select Am/Can Ch. Kismet’s Sight For Sore Eyes with 101 bests and his (daughter) Ch. Kaleff’s Genuine Risk with 101 bests, both under the guidance of handler Jimmy Moses will probably never be broken either. Nonetheless, one must wonder whether any record is indeed unbreakable—just look at Lou Gehrig and Cal Ripken’s feat—and keep in mind, nothing is forever insofar as record making is concerned.

Indeed, when Ch. Rock Falls Colonel, an English Setter, succeeded in the very early fifties of being awarded 100 Best in Shows, whoever would have thought that some 44 years later he would remain the only exhibit to have been handled to this feat by breeder and owner Mr. William Holt. And this was the case even though his brother (Ch. Rock Falls Racquet) actively campaigned against him through the formidable team of owner Ellsworth Howell and handler Jane Camp (Forsyth).

Who says owner/handlers can’t win against the ‘”big boys?”

Mr. Holt put exactly 100 Best in Shows on this dog. The next dog to achieve this number was the incredible Boxer Ch. Bangaway of Sirrah Crest, owned and bred by Dr. and Mrs. R.C. Harris. Bangaway was primarily handled by Nate Levine except when shown on the West Coast when Harry Sangster did the job. In the mid-fifties, it was more acceptable to fly only the dog coast to coast rather than the dog and its handler, which is why Bangaway basically had two handlers. To tell the truth, the practice of going out of ones territory for wins was probably introduced by Mr. Holt of Rock Falls Kennel fame—little did he realize the influence this practice would have upon the showdog of today! Bangaway was awarded 121 Best in Shows.

The first imported dog and the next in line to go over the 100 mark was the Pekingese Int. Ch. Chik T’Sun of Caversham, who had 127 Best in Shows. Bred by Mary de Pledge and Mrs. Herminie Lunham in England, Chik T’Sun was imported to Canada by Nigel Aubry-Jones and R. William Taylor, and subsequently sold to Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Venable and handled in America by the beloved Clara Alford. He was the “winningest dog” of all time in America; his record maintained from 1959 until 1980, when the Standard Poodle Ch. Lo-Gin’s Kiss Me Kate returned the record to an Americanbred exhibit by achieving 140 Best in Shows.

Louis Duncan bred Kate, who was owned by Mr. and Mrs. Jack Phelan and Terri Myers, and in 1979 she broke Chick T’Sun’s record before hitting the 140 BIS mark in 1980. Can you believe throughout that entire time period not one exhibit, and this through a twenty-year period, won over 100 Best in Shows? Kate was handled by Bob Walberg throughout her illustrious career.

Now comes the early and mid eighties and not only is a rush made on the 100 mark, but, miracle of miracles, the 200 mark is made and broken by two exhibits! The first, the in-

The 100 Club

and is the sire of three Best in Show winners, including the classy and top winning Welsh bitch owned by Bruce and campaigned by Wood, Ch. Wyndam Worth The Wait. Billy is but another example of the devotion which Lillian and Bruce Schwartz have, both toward the sport generally and the Welsh Terrier breed specifically.

Blossom, who is owned by Jean Heath and Bill Cosby, had been retired to become a mother, but when the litter missed she was brought out again to join this exclusive group of show dogs. Shown expertly by Clay Coady, who in the same year retired from handling to begin a judging career, Blossom attained this coveted win early on in 1999.

Tré is well-known to anyone associated with the world of the exhibition of the purebred dog. Shown by Dennis McCoy and expertly conditioned and groomed by his partner, Randy Garren, he was number one dog all-breeds for an incredible 24 consecutive months.

He is attributed to be the number one non-sporting dog of all time and is owned by that dog person extraordinaire Mrs. Alan Robson.

Tryst, of course, ended up top Hound in 1999, being shown only from April on. She is the top-winning hound of all time and broke the 100 in January 1996.

The year before, she was the top-winning dog of all breeds. The owners, the Rechlers, father and sons, are well known breeders of Afghans, having long been associated with the Grandeur Kennels originally conceived by the late and great Sunny Shay. Michael Canalizo has been responsible for the incredible career of this bitch, as well as the presentation and promotion of the kennel and the dogs attendant thereto.

It is interesting to note, of course, that all of the professional handlers associated with the three dogs mentioned above have now retired from handling and will now assume the role of professional judge under the American Kennel Club. We all wish them well in their new endeavors.

As of the original writing, only 15 exhibits have been awarded 100 or more All Breed Best in Shows in the United States. Of this number, four have actually been awarded 200 or more all-breed bests. Within the last several years and since 1990, the ranks of those dogs and bitches achieving these astronomical Best in Shows have practically doubled. Through 1990, only two exhibits had 200 or more Bests and five others had 100 or more wins. Since 1990 two more exhibits surpassed the 200 high water mark and four others went over the 100 figure! Considering the tremendous increase in the number of All-Breed championship events now being held in America— in 1994, there were 1,220 such shows—and with the ease of modern transportation, it wouldn’t be surprising to see these figures triple or even quadruple within the next decade. Certainly the astounding record of the German Shepherd bitch Ch. Altana’s Mystique is considered unbreakable today with her 275 all-breed awards. While the records of father and daughter

comparable Scottish Terrier bitch Ch. Braeburn’s Close Encounter, hit the 100 mark in 1983 and the 200 mark in 1986—records which she held until the mid nineties. Shannon, as the bitch was known to the dog world, was bred by R.E. and H.M. Gurling and first shown by George Ward for her owner, William MacInne. In 1983 her ownership was transferred to Alan and Sonny Novick, and in 1985 re-transferred to Mr. MacInne. From the time she was six months old until her death in January of 1994, she was kept by her handler, George Ward. For many years throughout this period, an intense rivalry between Shannon and another record-breaking dog—the German Shepherd Ch. Covy Tucker Hill’s Manhattan— blossomed. Manhattan broke the 100 mark in 1985 and the 200 mark in 1987. Manhattan won the Garden in that year, and Shannon won it in 1985. The two dogs, on more than one occasion, were shown against each other in Best in Show line-ups in the days when deals between handlers as when to show and when not to show were common. Deals, I might add, never entered into between Jimmy or George. If you think competition is hot today, the rivalry between Manhattan and Shannon and George and Jimmy was unbelievable. James Moses, of course, handled Manhattan for owners Shirlee Braunstein and Jane A. Firestone. He accumulated 204 Best in Shows and was bred by Cappy Pottle and Gloria Birch.

Another import, this time Wire Fox Terrier Ch. Galsul Excellence, was making his mark during this period of 1986 and 1987 as well by breaking the 1OO mark with 103 Best in Shows in 1988.

Owned by Ruth Cooper and the MacKays, his career was shortened by the unhappy “MacKay affair.” Whether a dog should be penalized for the faults of an errant co-owner remains an unanswered question philosophically in our sport even today, but certainly Paddy’s career came to an early end. He was handled by Peter Green and bred by J. Galvin. Eventually he became the sole property of his then co-owner Ruth Cooper.

As we entered the nineties, specifically from 1990 through 1995, nine exhibits, three bitches and six dogs would break the 100 Best in Show mark, with two of them, both bitches, going over 200. As mentioned in the beginning of this story, Ch. Altanta’s Mystique set the new record for wins with 275. A bitch who excelled at specialties as well as all-breeds, Mystique was owned by Jane A. Firestone and handled by James Moses—the same team which stood behind Manhattan. Mystique is in the Guinness Book Of World Records as the top-winning showdog ever. This formidable duo was shattered

by Jane’s untimely passing in December 1994, but hers and their devotion to the sport generally, and the German Shepherd specifically, are what legends are made of. In 1991, entering this select circle of winners and record setters was the Standard Poodle Ch. Whisperwind On Carousel, owned by Dr. and Mrs. Frederick Harsock, bred by Linda Blackie and handled to perfection by Dennis McCoy and Randy Garren.

“Peter” accumulated 105 Best in Shows. He basically was shown in his home territory and truly not flown throughout the country to accumulate his victories. Similarly, the English Springer spaniel shown

the Bouvier des Flandres Ch. Galbraith’s Iron Eyes achieved the win of his lifetime when he was awarded his 100th all-breed Best in Show win at the Santa Ana Valley Kennel Club.

by Mark Threlfall for breeder-owner Julia Gasow and coowner Herzig was a territorial accumulator of 103 or 104 all-breed bests. He carried the legendary Salilyn kennel prefix and was registered as Ch. Salilyn’s Condor.

And lastly are the three dogs owned by Sam and Marion Lawrence, which set enviable and amazing records in the mid-nineties. First there was the Doberman Pinscher Ch. Brunswig’s Cryptonite breaking the 100 mark with ease, with a total of 123 all-breed Best in Shows. Handled by George Murray and bred by R.G. and P.K. Farrer. His career was established and guided by the firm hand of owner Sam Lawrence and the handling of George Murray. During Cryptonite’s campaigning, the Lawerences acquired the Wire Fox Terrier bitch Ch. Registry’s Lonesome Dove, who probably exceeded even the wildest dreams of their owners as she accumulated 216 Best in Shows throughout her career. Handled by Mike Kemp again, Sam provided the course to follow, as Lacey just this past year broke Shannon’s long-standing terrier record for Best in Show wins.

And to top the cake, just one month ago, the Lawrence’s Black Cocker Spaniel Ch. La-Shay’s Bart Simpson established himself as the top-winning sporting dog, beating the Springer record with 106 Best in Show awards. The handler herein was Bob Covey, but again the long and able guidance of Sam Lawrence was apparent to all. Bart’s breeder is Sherry Marley.

In 1991 the Bouvier des Flandres Ch. Galbraith’s Iron Eyes achieved the win of his lifetime when he was awarded his 100th all-breed Best in Show win at the Santa Ana Valley Kennel Club. This outstanding exhibit joined the list of top winners campaigned and owned by Nat and Gloria Reese who were no strangers at all to top winners. With the handling team of Corky and Sue Vroom, the Reeses and Vrooms presented one of the most formidable top winning dogs ever to perform in the showring. Iron was bred by the Galbraith’s—David and Joan—who have long been involved in the breed and have devoted many years to producing some of the top Bouviers to be shown in America.

So there you have it, folks, the dogs that have set the records insofar as Best in Show wins at all-breed shows are concerned. Records no doubt meant to be broken, but these numbers, for whatever they are worth, add up to staggering successes of individual dogs over other dogs. They are imposing figures, and while some may question the value of these types of wins, since we all agree there are many fine dogs that for geographic, economic or other reasons are shown only on a limited scale, the winning competitive spirit established by these dogs and their owners, handlers and breeders not only serve the sport well but add an excitement and interest which are impossible to beat.

cue dogs over home-bred purebreds. And now AKC and we face the problem of how to counter these long placed and strongly appealing pleas favoring the rescue dog over those dogs from breeders. Were I king over at AKC, which they should thank their stars I am not, the first thing I would do would be to start a strong campaign--expensive though it may be -- pushing the advantages of home-bred purebreds. And don’t tell me the money’s not there to do it--of course it is--just switch a few priorities around even if this entails dipping into the Reserve Fund.

B

ack to New Brunswick. So well managed by Marjorie Martorella and the sister show of theirs on Sunday the Bronx KC--oops the Bronx in New Jersey too!!!!

But that’s another story isn’t it!! My biggest problem at the shows was the attire of some of the female judges who looked as though they came right out of the kennel and forgot to wash up or change clothes. That’s hard to say when at least two beauties such as Paula Nykiel and Susan St. John Brown were on the panels but really some of those other women just did not look the part at all. Hopefully they were chastised strongly for what they looked like. Some of the foreign judging was under heavy ques-

tion but I say to those who complained so bitterly to me go to the Field Reps and get them to write your feelings up in their reports. And if you don’t think that is going to work than write to the nominal head of the Judges Department, Staff members and Board members and to those infamous judges committees as well. As for results the first two nights the Portuguese Water Dog, which is already establishing quite a reputation as a top winner in a comparative short period of time, was awarded the Bests and the last night an Am Staff of stature was awarded Best. It was sort of a Bull Terrier celebration as the judge the first night used four different Bullies in the top four Terrier group placements while the same Colored bull bitch won the terrier group as the first night. I was talking to a prominent terrier judge in our country during the terrier group and she opined that perhaps this terrier group was even stronger than the one we both had seen at Crufts. She was not too far off in her opinion, I thought anyways.

Again and according to the Board Minutes the Smith Committee was to have met Tuesday the 26th, in Raleigh. The purpose per these Minutes was to amend the judging process instituted last year. Not too sure what that might have meant but hopefully we will find out soon enough. I understand some thought the term of the Committee had expired making the meeting

unnecessary if not illegal but that too may or may not come to light as well. Hopefully some clarification will be forthcoming about how those invitations to judge additional breeds come to pass. Additionally, how many people actually do vote on these extra breed give-outs? Five are in the pot to vote but I am told as few as two perhaps only one person is doing the voting. We know the COO does not vote nor is there a head of Judging to vote either--that leaves “the Judge” representative, the Field Rep representative and the judgeexhibitor-handler-everyman representative-how many of them do or do not cast a vote is the question to be answered and why if five positions were designated were they not all filled with people capable of voting on these judges? Will that be answered one must ask!

Wonder what kind of stance will be publicly espoused aside from the inside stance which will eventually leak out for sure!!!

Just found out after reading the British papers that our own Bill McFadden judged Junior handling at Crufts. That was quite an honor and a well deserved one for Bill. Interesting to note that I spent some time with him at Crufts and he never mentioned that he was asked to do this assignment. That’s typical of Bill--quiet, laid back and extremely successful and competent, and totally unassuming. Good for him, too!

114 Dog News

From A Field-Show Breeder’s Perspective Continued FROM page 57

We were fortunate in this 43rd Grand Course to have entries representing outstanding running Irish Wolf Hounds, Afghan Hounds, Borzoi, Galgos Espanol, Ibizan Hounds, Magyar Agars and Silken Windhounds. A Galgo placed 4th in this Grand Course. After decades of Grand Course winners and top ten placements, we also find almost every top ten placing sighthound is 60 lbs or less. There are certainly no 90 -100 lb Greyhounds that we find winning in the show ring that would ever be able to qualify to run in the Grand Course. To qualify and be invited to run in the Grand Course, a hound must score at least 50 points during the current season.

The NOFCA rare-breeds known as Magyar Agar, Ibizan Hound, Galgo Espanol and a Silken Windhound.

After a half-century of organized open field competition in NOFCA, our sighthounds are more than functional and beautiful, and some of them are winning Specialties. In fact, 9 different elite Saluki NOFCA coursing champions have won a specialty Best in Show and one of them was an all-breed BIS winner who had 3 group placements at the Westminster Kennel Club show. Also a NOFCA Grand Course winning Greyhound made breed history by the only Grand Courser to win a Specialty Best in Show.

Salukis, Greyhounds and Basenjis have been proactive taking

measures to protect the possible cascade of health problems with limited gene pools by refreshing their gene pools. Basenji folks have imported African dogs from their country of origin and eventually the AKC recognizing their pedigrees. Salukis as well have been importing desert-breds for many decades and recorded critiques and pedigrees of these imports with what was eventually “the SPDBS” and as of 2002; the AKC has agreed to recognize this registry after 3 generations. The AKC has recognized the National Greyhound Association (NGA) registry of racing Greyhounds, except for a brief 11-year period since 1929. The NGA registry has a much higher standard of registration than the AKC and required in 1999 that both parents must be “dna certified” before registering pups with NGA. NGA Greyhounds are certainly purebred and go back to English Coursing Greyhounds just as the show Greyhounds do. Like the un-noticed gorilla in the room, NGA blood can save the show Greyhound with an infusion of the correct sized, athletic Greyhound descendents down from the legendary Strider. And it won’t even be necessary to breed directly to a racing dog!

However there is no substitute for genetic testing whenever possible before breeding 100 % show Greyhounds through Optigen research laboratory to provide DNA based diagnoses about inherited diseases.

Guimares and Habbi, brother and sister at this year’s Grand Course and are littermates also to Kepi, who raised eyebrows at the 2012 National Afghan Hound Specialty in Atlanta, GA., when she was best in event at the national specialty lure trial.

LettersTo The Editor Kennel Club Supports Campaign To Tackle Tick-Borne Disease In Dogs

T

he Kennel Club is supporting the tick-borne disease charity Borreliosis and Associated Diseases Awareness UK (BADA-UK) by helping to raise awareness of the growing risk to dogs of tickborne diseases.

BADA-UK, which recently teamed up with Merial Animal Health at Crufts 2013, are making education for dog owners and veterinary professionals a major focus of the charity’s annual awareness platform, Tick Bite Prevention Week, which runs this week (24th – 30th March 2013).

Wendy Fox, Founder and Chair of BADA-UK, said: “Ticks are an increasing problem for both pets and owners. Tick bites can cause allergic reactions, abscesses and transmit harmful diseases to pets which may be difficult and expensive to treat. Yet with a few simple precautions, these could be avoided.”

Nick Sutton, Health Information Officer at the Kennel Club, added: “If your dog is unfortunate enough to contract a tick-borne infection, then being aware of the warning signs will allow him to receive vital early veterinary treatment. It is important that people realise the risks that ticks can pose to both themselves and their dogs and this is why the work carried out by BADA-UK is so important.”

BADA-UK has produced a range of bite and disease prevention information resources for pet owners and health professionals, which can be found at www.tickbitepreventionweek.org and www. bada-uk.org.

The charity is also issuing a call to pet owners to help them raise awareness of tick-borne diseases and raise vital funds for BADA-UK by holding a sponsored ‘Walk ‘n’ Wagathon’ in aid of the charity during 2013.

Howard Stone Perpetual Trophy

T

he 2013 Sealyham Specialty Catalog will show a new perpetual trophy offered by Bobbi and Don and Sally. I have used the working “Sealyham motif piece” for the catalog---this will cover just about anything you come up with. We can change the wording in future years. I want to make certain that the trophy will be ready for our June shows so that members and others and maybe the AKC and Dog News will be able to see and appreciate it. Thanks, again, for doing this. Howard would be pleased.

Observations On Crufts

I

always enjoy Crufts as it has a character all its own. Of course it is frustrating that it’s difficult to watch more than one or two breeds from start to finish. I did enjoy watching my long-time friend Feffie Somerfield judging Large Musterlanders, a breed with which I was unfamiliar. Her retirement from judging at the end of this year will be a great loss to the dog world.

There was one aspect of the television coverage that bothered me. There were several interview “spots” filmed at Crufts that showed cross-bred dogs and seemed to put them on equal footing with purebreds. The interviews were done by the same excellent commentator that did much of the coverage of the winning dogs. I just found it disturbing to give what are basically mutts prominent coverage.

Thanks for reading.

Lydia Coleman Hutchinson Middletown, MD

The Sky Is Not Falling

I live in the “free-ist” state in the union, Massachusetts. I love living here for many reasons, most of them political, but I won’t go into that. What not to like. It is a small state, with unbelievable power in the state house in the rest of the world.

Our representers also seem to have the power to be stupid and reactionary as well.

When the NO DEBARKING law passed recently I was shocked into silence. No pun intended. Really? What idiot decided this was a good idea? Apparently it originated from a woman who rescued a pit bull who had a botched debarking job by someone other than a Veterinarian. This is what drug dealers do so that police can’t hear the dogs inside a house and are attacked when they try to serve warrants or make arrests.

Where was the AVMA on this practice? I know a good bit about this practice although I have never done it myself.

Done by a Veterinarian, the dog STILL BARKS but makes a muffled sound. Big deal! Massachusetts Federation Of Dog Clubs members and others too numerous to mention here, fought this debarking law, tooth and nail and still it passed.

These zealots are relentless.......

The penalties: With a conviction, no ownership of dogs for 10 years in this state and mandatory jail time. If they can find the Veterinarian who performed the procedure, loss of license, possible jail time and mandatory psychiatric treatment.

I am not FOR this procedure, but shouldn’t it be an option so a dog doesn’t have to get turned into a shelter, or euthanized? I guess not.

How did this happen? Where are our personal freedoms with our dogs going?

I am not wet behind the ears, it is backed by AR zealots, misinformed “children” of misguided information and lies.

Charlotte McGowan’s response to the question in the latest DN is what tipped me over. She has been complaining about this for years and I can now understand her frustration that most of us haven’t listened.

Based on the people around here, they are more interested in getting a GCH title than being proactive.

I know I need to stop this constant “preaching to the choir” and find the audience that will help us become empowered before we are all blown off the map. Think it can’t happen in the next 5 years? Wake up! What happens in Massachusetts has flow through.

Rhode Island is now trying to ban de-barking. Connecticut will be next. And on and on and so forth.

Misguided state representatives are currently trying to ban the use of box dryers at grooming shops in my state. I don’t think they even read the bills they back.

This won’t keep groomers from killing dogs, they will just put the stand dryers against the cages. Are they going to ban those too?

Yes, a dog can be killed if left in a cage for too long.

Only a numbskull would do that. Why not regulate/license the people who groom and make them learn how to care for dogs in their care, instead of just banning a useful tool.

I am just one little person, in a sea of people who are being presented on a daily basis with the public perception of the dog “industry”.......I see the look of disgust when some of my customers see my intact male whippet when he accompanies me into one of my stores.

There are six shelter dog events this year, to raise money to “help dogs in need” in Massachusetts, all of which I am expected to support. There is no need, there are no dogs here. All of them come from Perto Rico or down South.

Our own AKC, with their mission statement of being in the corner of the purebred dog is just a registry and keeps reminding us, “we can’t get involved, we are just a registry”......

Well, okay so who is in our corner?

The importation of dogs into our country continues and as far as I am concerned, is just another nail in our coffin.

We must find a way to find an audience that will listen and wants to listen.

It matters little to complain to each other about what needs to change so that we can continue to own dogs.

ALL of us need to stop being selfish and see the big picture. All of us must stand up all the time and promote the purebred dog and breeders. We are not all bad, don’t all breed too much and keep our dogs in filthy conditions.

If we are concerned about our children having to pay for our deficit, shouldn’t we also care about the qualities of their lives that matter, like having dogs in it?

On another matter: to all the dog show people who stayed at the Red Roof Inn in York, PA during the Celtic Cluster who refused to clean up after your dogs: Don’t cry like a little baby when the hotel decides not to allow dogs any longer.

The manager had a sign on the counter that threatened AKC action and banishment from the hotel for not cleaning up.

I witnessed a customer complaining about the feces all over the place, when I checked in on Wednesday. This was the first day of the event, so you can imagine how bad it got by the weekend.

Granted, this was the worst case of irresponsible behavior at a hotel I have ever seen, I was told “it is always like this”.

Not true, I stayed there last year and it wasn’t like that at all.

I asked about the sign and was told the manager witnessed a large dog make a mess in front of the hotel main door and walked away.
