Restoring the Credibility of Purebred Dog Ownership

A Chinese Reply

The most pressing problem facing the American Kennel Club and the United Kennel Club too is to restore and build up the general faith of the American public in owning the purebred dog. For the past several decades now the advertising campaigns to adopt/buy mixed breed dogs from shelters in order to save the life of the dog have overwhelmed the media both print and electronic to the point that the value in owning a purebred dog has been downgraded almost to a second class status. The fact is that in certain circles there is a stigma attached to purebred dog ownership. This kind of attitude must be redirected such that people are encouraged to own a dog be it from a breeder or if they so choose from a shelter as well. Naturally and very strongly so do these pages support the advantages of purebred dog ownership over mixed breed animals from a shelter. The recent NAIA report indicates that adoptions from the shelter seem to be decreasing but this may be due to a basic lack of product rather than a lessening in interest in the shelter dog. AKC for sure must be the leader in encouraging purebred dog ownership and it must establish a campaign, which it has promised to do for the past several years to reestablish the public’s interest in the purebred dog. Board after Board and Staff after Staff make these promises and plans periodically and you know what? None of them have come through with anything definitive in that area. Cost be damned, without this goal being fulfilled there will be fewer and fewer breeders to fill the needs of those wanting to own a purebred and people generally will have no choice but to go to shelters. This cannot be a secondary goal for the leaders within our sport but a primary and immediate goal to help preserve the values of those who believe so strongly in the advantages and values of purebred dog ownership.

The China Kennel Union has sent out a letter explaining its position insofar as the infamous Gold Card incident in Milan is concerned. This letter is printed in the AND MORE article of this issue and is in reply to the claim of the Norwegian Kennel Club’s letter of last week. CKU claims the offer about the gold card reward came after the vote and not before. If this is true than it somewhat mitigates NKC’s claim that the offer of the three-night stay in a Shanghai hotel came before the vote although candidly it is unlikely that some of the Delegates to the FCI convention were at the least not told about the possibility of this offer being made should the 2019 show go to Shanghai. What is needed here is an independent investigation of what actually occurred in Milan, which based on the reactions of some of the officers at FCI and certainly those from the South East Asian section, is unlikely to occur. By the by whatever happened to the report of the U.S. meeting with FCI about the boycott of judges between the two organizations? This meeting took place in May and still no word! That’s a strange thing for sure! And now the AKC has announced its opposition to the Yulin Meat Festival in a statement that reads like “loving Mother and eating apple pie.” Of course AKC is against that sort of practice but nothing is stated about how this affects, if it should affect, the FCI holding its show or any show in China. It just ignores the entire controversy, which is probably the way one would expect AKC to react.

Editorial

The Houston Experience

Coming off the five-day Houston series of dog events is quite a high for the experienced dog show lover and attendee. First of all the NRG Center at NRG Park in Houston is an incredible venue that easily houses every kind of dog event plus more. Good sense dictates that at these kinds of events the officers etc. do not exhibit dogs owned or co-owned, which is the case here as opposed to some other high profile events. If you think the AKC/Eukanuba event touches every base of the dog world, which it handsomely does, so does this Houston World Series of dog events with the added proviso of luring upwards of close to 30,000 spectators if not more with the added incentive of pulling in the massive school age community with an art show devoted to the dog that is unmatched in presentation and acceptance. If ever the AKC show thinks about moving its venue these pages can think of no better site than the one in Houston. Tom and Nancy Pincus, Amiko Allen and Cathy de la Garza are but a few of the people responsible for putting on this great event and it was interesting to see Mark Dunn, Tim Thomas and Doug Ljungren there from AKC Staff as well. This is much more than the usual conformation show and is a fabulous and well appreciated contribution as an overall dog event that encourages and promotes the dog as well or better than most in this country succeed in doing. 10 Dog News

Fake Service Dogs

Here’s a little heads up for those making plans to attend the AENC or for that matter any of the Florida shows by air. A new Florida law taking effect July 1 will make it a misdemeanor to pass off an unqualified pet as a service animal. The law, proposed by state Rep. Jimmie Smith, R-Inverness, will make misrepresenting a dog as a service dog a second-degree misdemeanor. The offense is punishable with up to 60 days in jail and 30 hours of community service for an organization that services people with disabilities, to be completed in less than six months. The Americans with Disabilities Act’s website says some service dogs may wear special collars or harnesses and have certification, but no one may ask for documentation to provide services because the disabled person is unlikely to have it with them. Well the disabled person has to have documentation to fly so why shouldn’t the airlines have the right to see the dog’s certification as well? But the website further says a person may ask the dog’s handler whether it is required because of a disability and what tasks the dog has been trained to do. Well that’s something but watch out those of you going to Florida.

Thought For The Week

These pages hear that the concept of two shows in a day is catching on with some of the smaller shows but at the Long Island shows held recently the very thing the Board and Staff cautioned against reoccurred for the second year in a row as it was reported to these pages there were instances where some of the toy breeds showed in both shows before showing in the group in the first show! AKC has said that one show should be completely over before showing in the second show. How many hours in the day were the dogs--forget about the people-- at the show and then taken to yet another site for two more days of shows? When is enough enough?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

For many years, living in Sweden or Norway, to me that meant spending summers in England, Scotland and Wales, traveling from kennel to kennel in between some of these wonderful summer all breed championship shows, spiced up by a few breed shows plus as many agricultural and open shows as possible. By Geir Flyckt-Pedersen

ven after we moved to England I missed our summer holidays in the country.… People were much nicer to you when they knew they would get rid of you after a couple of weeks than when you tried to compete with them in the ring! Those pub evenings at a time when drink/driving was only considered a sin if you were involved in an accident were so much more relaxed than it is nowadays- and of course the “Holy Spirit” in a bottle loosened a few tongues which could make conversations very entertaining and interesting- although not of an always particularly intellectual nature! Our very first Greyhound was a dog bred by the very special and knowledgeable Ralph Parsons of the world famous RP Greyhounds and for a few years we made his hometown Wadebridge, Cornwall one of our stops- and at the same time attending the Paignton show. Ralph had a head full of interesting information and knowledge- and listening to his observations and comments about the dogs in the ring, at times including their owners, could be an hilarious experience. Ralph and his lovely wife Barbara had this “hang-up”: for some reason they would never kill a spider-his main job was as a postman, but he was a trained cobbler. His shop window was covered in cobwebs- as these little creatures were entitled to a life! For some reason, I thought it might have to do with belief in reincarnation, but I never found the

real reason. Or I might have forgotten. What I have not forgotten was his comment about a nice young lady showing a few very nice looking large grey hounds. (I think the breed is generally considered the largest of all breeds of dogs, but if I told you the name of the breed you might too easily identify the person concerned.) “See that young lady over there. She has taken Dog Madness to a whole new level. Would show her dogs every day of the week if at all possible- and she is virtually newly wed. Has only been married for a couple of years. The locals have named her husband Captain Birdseye- as he so far during his marriage has never had the pleasure of a home-cooked meal! Some people think she feeds him dog food.” (I don’t know if Captain Birdseye exists in the US, but in the UK it is a very common ready made, I think frozen, food label.) Could have been a joke, of course, but knowing quite a selection of dog mad women, I don’t think his fate in this respect was rare. In any case, eventually they split up and this exhibitor made a huge name for herself as a breeder and a judge. Then remarried a super guy who shared her allabsorbing interests. Good to know there is a “bottom” for every chair! And I think they lived happily ever after…until, sadly, death did them part. Dog Worlds Simon Parsons just told me he had problems at time identifying who the people were that I referred to. I just wonder if this one was too easy??? We always tried to make the Windsor show. In those days ruled by Cathy & Beefy Sutton- and attended by crowds of overseas visitors- the majority I think Americans- and the Windsor Dinner in a marquee at the showground with Windsor Castle as backdrop was always on the list. One lovely memory from a Windsor Continued on page 60

The M Word Where are all the mentors?

Newbies starting out in dogs quickly learn that there are several things they must acquire if they are to have even a whiff of hope for success. By Denise Flaim

mong them: A typey, well-bred foundation bitch. (Good luck with that). A snazzy website to attract puppy buyers for that muchanticipated first litter. And then, that rarest of commodities, a mentor. The mentor’s origins, like most things of value, go back to ancient times – Mentor, whose name means “to think,” was a valued advisor in Homer’s “Odyssey.” And in recent decades, having a mentor has become a staple of any serious endeavor, whether in the workplace or the whelping box. “Mentor” has become shorthand for a larger-thanlife blend of therapist, guidance counselor and high priest who sits on a treasure trove of knowledge, and whose pronouncements are absolute. In some circles, “She’s my mentor” has a level of cachet that’s normally reserved for the latest Birkin. And like those six-figure Hermes handbags, mentors are both hard to find, and incredibly valuable. This insatiable thirst for mentoring presumably led to the email sent out recently by MB-F. The superintendent’s “Quick Poll on Mentoring for Newcomers and Experienced Dog Persons” shifted its questions depending on how you

18 Dog News

described your tenure in the sport of dogs. If you checked off less than two years, the survey asked if you’d like to have a mentor, and, if so, would prefer one who was “certified/verified” – in other words, had a criminal background check. And those with more than six years experience were asked if they would want to join an organization for dog mentors that charged $25 to $35 to “verify” them. Where to begin? Should a primary criterion for mentors be that they have more than six years in dogs, which is barely enough time to start to know what you don’t know? And what does the absence of a criminal record have to do with your ability to elucidate the importance of a good shoulder? This sort of linear thinking is precisely why mentors are in short supply – or why many perceive them to be. You don’t just add water and get Anne Rogers Clark: Good dog people grow the same way a good puppy does: slowly and steadily. Similarly, the kind of valuable information that mentors impart can’t be instantaneously downloaded. There isn’t a thunderbolt. Being mentored is a slow, oftentimes casual process. It’s about osmosis – the being there. It is in the ordinary things – helping the mentor clean out runs, train a puppy or watch over a litter of newborns – that

the transfer of knowledge begins. Always a trickle, never a tsunami. One of the reasons that mentoring is such a protracted process is that knowledge is acquired in layers. It takes a while to absorb the complex terms and concepts that underlie breeding theory. And if the mentor is not able to articulate the science of what she is doing (which is the case with many true maestros – they do not think, they just do), the student is left to deconstruct the art. As for that mentor, chances are she did not get where she is by suffering fools gladly. Besieged by requests for “mentoring” – which is often shorthand for “Have lunch with me at Cracker Barrel after the show and tell me everything you know” – most mentors simply do not have the time to waste on people who want everything fast. That is the thing that most newbies forget about mentorship: It’s not a freelance assignment; it’s a relationship. “Is there any money involved?” a befuddled George Costanza asks on one “Seinfeld” episode when he learns Jerry has agreed to mentor another comedian. “No,” Jerry replies. “ So what's in it for the mentor?” George persists.

Question of the week By Matthew H. Stander

What specifically would you suggest AKC do to pomote the buying of purebred dogs? Cindy Savioli Great question! We need to direct puppy buyers to responsible breeders of purebred dogs. AKC should work to make sure their website comes up as the first search site when looking for a puppy. Once on the site, AKC should design its website to link the potential buyer to a search engine that directs the buyer to the National/Regional club websites which have breeder lists. This would give the buyer access to lists of breeders that have had some vetting by a club. So often puppy buyers are lured into back yard breeders/puppy mill websites that have done little or no health and temperament screening. In Pembrokes, we are currently dealing with breeders that are combining Pembrokes with blue merle Cardigans to come up with designer Corgis. They are marketed as healthier and better temperaments forgetting the part that they are not purebred. AKC also needs to do more to educate breeders especially the ones considered to be backyard breeders and puppy mills. These puppies and adults flood our rescue programs. AKC should promote health screening of parents and screening of potential buyers. Not every person should own a dog or a particular breed! Go after the breeders that sell puppies, take no accountability for them and then let the rescue programs do the clean up. I know you can lead a horse to water but .... at least we can try! judy colan This is a complex issue. As manager of a veterinary clinic we see at least one dog per day that has been “adopted” for $400 or $500 from some place down South because the dog was going to be put to sleep. I feel there should 22 Dog News

be an expose’ on these organizations who are duping the public. They bring these dogs up by the truck load. Therefore the current mind-set is to save a dog from being put to sleep, not buy a purebred dog. When people come in with a purebred puppy they often feel guilty. “I know I should have adopted a dog who was going to be put to sleep but I really wanted a Weimaraner”. Once the public is aware of the trafficking of mixed breeds then they are ready to hear about purebred dogs. At this point it is time to stress reputable breeders who have the required health clearances on their dogs and who are there to answer questions when the owner has a problem or questions and who stand behind their puppies. Disseminate inform ation about CHF and the fact that when a puppy is registered with AKC there is FREE health insurance on their puppy for ? months. FREE is an attention getter and motivator.

Margaret Poindexter Well, I believe that anything it could do would be more than it’s doing now. AKC struggles with its image in front of the public because it focuses on its own image instead of focusing on the dogs; AKC needs to get back to making it about the dogs. AKC has spent a lot of resources promoting itself, but very little promoting purebred dogs. Those efforts and expense have garnered it a huge social media following. But I challenge you to look at its Facebook page at this moment and describe for me the point of the message, if there even is a message. It’s now time to communicate to that huge FB audience (and we have been told repeatedly what a coup it is to have that size FB following) with a message that goes beyond, “How many likes for this cute {unidentifiable breed} puppy and, by the way, can’t we sell you some random crap?” Every day should include information and messaging about a particular breed (like “National Purebred Dog Day” is doing with its impressive Facebook page), every day should include information and messaging about a

parent club, and every day should include information and messaging about dog events occurring at that moment somewhere in the country. You promote the buying of purebred dogs by creating demand for purebred dogs. People choose a dog because they feel a connection with it. You help create that feeling of connection by promoting the unique characteristics and predictable qualities of purebred dogs, and promoting opportunities for people to engage in activities with their dog, especially those activities that match the traits of the dog with the personality and interests of the owner. Susan H. Hamlin The general public is not well educated about the advantages of purebred dogs, or even where to purchase them. For the most part they want instant gratification, and are not willing to do the research to find a good purebred dog. Conscientious breeders cannot compete with puppy mills who boast AKC registered puppies, but do not offer quality or even healthy pups, and often not even honest or accurate pedigree information. With social media, mass advertising is an easy click. What to do? Stop registering dogs that come from puppy mills who make selling purebreds a business as opposed to the hobby breeder who is interested in producing quality rather than quantity? Designer breeds abound. The public loves them. For the most part in my community, the small furry designer breeds (e.g. malti-poo, cava-chon, morkie) are surely more popular than the pit-bull types available in the shelters here. I think there will always be a market for a good purebred dog, but that market is shrinking. What about an extensive marketing campaign about the advantages of a purebred dog? Cindy Meyer It does not seem that AKC is doing anything to promote purebred dogs. We are constantly seeing ads from Animal Rights Groups, but nothing from AKC. They spend all of their time and effort promoting on Facebook and the AKC website, but nothing for the person that isn’t seeking information. Perhaps the PR people need to become more active in TV and magazine ads. Not televising The AKC National Championship Show was a huge loss to the purebred dog world. I am always amazed at the numbers of people who tell me they watch the dog shows that are televised. Why not ads showcasing Canine Health and all they do to benefit all dogs? Supposedly, AKC has the best PR firm in the country representing them, but what exactly are they doing?

You Yourvet By Merry Fitzgerald, DVM.

Why is there hair growing out of my dog’s eye?

It is definitely alarming to see hairs protruding from a lump on the surface of your dog’s eyeball. The most likely cause is a dermoid cyst. This is a growth on the cornea (clear outer surface) or conjunctiva (surrounding tissue) of the eye which consists of fat, glandular tissue, hair follicles and hair. These cysts are caused by a defect in the formation of the top layer of skin, or epidermis. Dermoids are usually seen in young puppies. The condition is congenital, meaning it was present since birth. The growth, depending on its location on the eye, can be a source of severe pain. If it is on the edge of the eyelid, it will hinder the normal blinking reflex and cause the eye to become dry. The hairs can be irritating to the eye and even lead to corneal ulceration. Dermoids located directly on the cornea interfere with normal vision. Surgery is the treatment of choice. This procedure would be done by an ophthalmic specialist with an operating microscope. The dermoid mass is dissected from the normal eye tissue. It is a challenging surgery, but the outcome is generally successful. Dermoid cysts can be present anywhere on the body. They 26 Dog News

can develop on or under the skin, usually along the spine or top of the head. The hair ridge in Rhodesian ridgebacks is thought to make them more susceptible to this condition. Cutaneous dermoid cysts fill with a thick yellowish to brown fluid. These cysts can be painful and inflamed. Sometimes dogs will rupture them by licking or chewing at them. On rare occasions, dermoid cysts can be found in the nose, on the tongue and intracranially (within the skull). The intracranial cysts eventually result in neurologic disease such as weakness, staggering, seizures and hydrocephalus (fluid on the brain). Surgical removal of the dermoid cysts in the skin can be done by your regular veterinarian. Excision of the intracranial masses would require referral to a surgical specialist.

What is uterine inertia?

The word inertia means “resistance to motion”. Uterine inertia is a condition in which the pregnant bitch is unable to deliver her puppies on her whelping date. The muscles of her uterus fail to contract and expel the puppies from the uterus. Often the bitch is bright and alert with no signs of dis-

tress, but she does not go into labor. Uterine inertia can be primary or secondary. Primary inertia is the absence of any uterine contractions. Secondary inertia occurs when the contractions stop after the delivery of one or more puppies, even though there are more puppies in the uterus. There are several causes for primary uterine inertia. Large litters in number and/or size will overstretch the uterus weakening the uterine muscles. Small litters may not stimulate the uterine wall enough to initiate contractions. Obesity and lack of exercise, infection and low blood levels of calcium and sugar can result in primary inertia. Secondary uterine inertia results when the musculature of the uterus becomes exhausted following prolonged contraction against an oversized puppy or a puppy that is stuck in the vaginal canal and unable to advance. The effort of delivering a large litter can also result in uterine exhaustion, especially when levels of blood sugar and calcium drop below the normal threshold. If your bitch has passed the date on which she should have given birth, or has delivered some but not all of her puppies and her labor has stopped completely, you should seek veterinary assistance. Examination may reveal a puppy lodged in the birth canal. Radiographs can be taken to evaluate the number and size of the fetuses. Ultrasound can help determine Continued on page 72

Raw Pet Foods Under The Microscope By Carlotta Cooper

he United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently announced that they would be collecting samples of raw pet food for dogs and cats to test them for Salmonella, Listeria, and e. Coli. If you feed your dog a raw pet food, don’t be too surprised if there are recalls in the next few weeks. Several raw pet food companies have already had recalls this summer – I and Love and You, Stella and Chewy’s, the Carnivore Meat Company, and OC Raw Dog at this time. Recalled foods can include freeze-dried raw foods, too, since freeze-drying does not kill some bacteria. Most people who feed raw diets, including raw pet food, know that the government and the AVMA have expressed concerns in the past about raw foods. According to the FDA, the agency has not yet defined raw or “minimally processed” foods for dogs and cats. Right now raw food for pets include everything from animals brought home by hunters to food that is sold at pet stores as complete and balanced. The food samples collected by the FDA in this assignment will include any pet foods labeled or advertised as “raw” and sold in retail stores. The FDA refers to peer-reviewed articles that have reported raw pet foods have contained bacterial pathogens including Salmonella, L. monocytogenes, Escherichia coli O157:H7 and non O157:H7 STEC. In one paper cited by the FDA, Salmonella was found in 80 percent of the raw chicken in the dog food diets samples (and in 30 percent of the stool samples from the dogs that ate the food). An earlier FDA/Center for Veterinary 30 Dog News

Medicine/Veterinary Laboratory Investigation and Response Network (CVM Vet-LIRN) study, in collaboration with the Food Emergency Response Network (FERN), found that in 196 samples of raw dog and cat food purchased online, 15 of the samples were positive for Salmonella (7.7%), 32 were positive for L. monocytogenes (16.3%), none were positive for E. coli O157:H7 and 10 were positive for non O157:H7 STEC (CVM, 2014). Dogs often don’t show symptoms from eating or coming in contact with Salmonella unless they are weak or have a compromised immune system, but they – and food that is contaminated – can transmit Salmonella to humans. Humans can be infected by the pathogens and are more likely to become ill from the infection. Likewise, humans can be infected by Listeria and e. Coli, even if dogs are not. The FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine makes the following statement: “FDA does not believe raw meat foods for animals are consistent with the goal of protecting the public from significant health risks, particularly when such products are brought into the home and/or used to feed domestic pets; however, we understand that some people prefer to feed these types of diets to their pets.” Obviously, lots of people prefer to feed their dogs a raw

diet, in some form, believing the food is healthier for dogs, less processed, and has fewer harmful ingredients. In some cases the food may be more like what dogs ate before kibble existed. You can find plenty of experts who will support your decision to feed a raw diet, regardless of what the FDA and AVMA may think. But the FDA is concerned not just with what is healthy for pets, but with human health. They worry about the risks of having these pathogens transmitted to people, even if your dog is unaffected. The FDA will be collecting samples of raw foods that are frozen, including mixes and grinds in the form of bites, medallions, or patties; freeze-dried raw food; and dehydrated raw food – foods that do not have to be cooked before feeding. They will not be checking canned foods or raw milk for dogs and cats. The sampling will continue until the beginning of September. If you notice some more raw foods being recalled in the next few weeks, it does not mean you should panic about feeding raw foods. It simply means that these foods are under extra scrutiny from the FDA right now. The FDA did the same thing in the summer of 2013 when they checked many pet food companies for Salmonella – and there were a lot of recalls. While this kind of investigation may shake your confidence in a few raw pet food companies, it is ultimately good to know which companies are being careful about bacterial contamination. We want pet food companies to be careful with the food they are making for our pets. If you are committed to feeding your dog a raw food diet, this investigation should not deter you. Just take note of the results and pay attention to which companies have problems. We’re not for or against a raw food diet. Everyone has their own reasons for feeding their dogs the way they do. (And my dogs certainly enjoy some raw chicken wings occasionally.) We just want you to be informed.

10 uestions Q ASKEDOF...

Ryan Wolfe

BORN: ANAHEIM, CA RESIDES: SOUTH BEND, IN MARITAL STATUS: MIGHT AS WELL BE ASTROLOGICAL SIGN: LIBRA

When did you start showing and how did that first show go? I was probably five or six when my mom (Julie Wolfe Virosteck) had me show one of her Cocker Spaniels in the Parade of Champions at a specialty show in the days when the entries were huge. I was thrilled with my first rosette!

How difficult was it to finish your championship? Well it wasn’t all that difficult for a kid. And the reason is my mother had trained the dog, conditioned it and groomed it! As the years went on I took on those duties too.

Other than your own breed, what other breeds do you like? Newfoundland.

Which dog person of the opposite sex would you be? Pat Trotter because I want to win groups at Westminster.

How do you feel about AKC’s role in our sport? It’s a tough question. For all the good they do there are so many problems they can’t seem to fix. But then, who could?

How many shows do you attend a year, and which three are your favorite ones? 180 or so. Westminster, Palm Springs and the Hoosier Tire Classic in South Bend-10 minutes from my home.

Who from dogs would you like to see on the television show “Duck Dynasty?” Larry Cornelius.

What things in the world of dogs bring you the greatest joy? Just being around the dogs.

What characteristics do you admire in others and strive to emulate? People who are hard working and honest.

If you could afford to host an elegant catered dinner party, name at least three dogs and/or people you would like to invite. My mother Julie, Paul Catterson, Nancy Martin and Joey Vergnetti.

Dog News 51

ast week, the NAIA released the findings of a study it conducted of 18 US animal shelters that contradicts reports from other national organizations that claim purebred dogs make up a large percentage – up to 25% - of those found in shelters. The NAIA’s report claims just 5% of dogs in US shelters are purebred, a number that would be reduced to 3.3% were it not for two breeds that are overrepresented, Chihuahuas and dogs described as “Pit Bulls”. The NAIA findings also acknowledge that shelter personnel aren’t breed experts and often designate short-coated brown dogs as Pit Bulls, small dogs as Chihuahuas, and blocky black dogs as Labradors so these numbers aren’t accurate. Visits to area shelters corroborate these findings. This week, the Alliance for NYC’s Animals released a progress report stating that since its founding in 2003, the Alliance has “saved” more than 275,000 cats and dogs. The Alliance was formed under Mayor Bloomberg’s reign as a non-profit charity that works with more than 150 partner rescue groups and shelters to save the lives of NYC’s homeless animals. Supported entirely by donations from foundations, corporations and individuals with no government funding, the goal of the Alliance was to transform NYC into a “no kill” community. When it was founded, the live release rate at NY Animal Care Centers was 25%. According to the latest progress report, the live release rate in 2014 is 87%, up from 85% in 2013. The

Alliance points to those mega “adopt-a-thon” events such as Adoptapalooza, Maddie’s Pet Adoption Days and Whiskers in Wonderland and community events such as Broadway Barks as helping to generate thousands of adoptions in 2014. But further examination of the numbers in the report also raise many questions. In 2014, the ACC took in 30,278 animals – an increase of 1,217 or 4% over 2013. Yet, it claims that the live release rate for dogs and cats held steady despite the uptick in intakes at 77%, or 23,196 animals. So, is the live release rate 77% or 88%? One must wonder if these types of adopt-a-thons, which encourage impulse purchases or adoptions and require little or no background checks, attributed to the increased intake of animals in shelters. On a lunchtime stroll through Manhattan last Friday, I could just have easily returned to work

with a taco, an ice cream or a ‘pit bull’ puppy, as just beyond the food trucks on either side of Broadway there was a North Shore Animal League truck conveniently parked outside the Union Square Petco filled with crates of puppies for the taking. For the uninitiated, ignorant, lonely New Yorker on a payday, perhaps an enticing offer, but somewhere down the road reality may set in when the new dog owner discovers that dogs require a big responsibility, a change in lifestyle, a financial and lifetime commitment, constant monitoring, a training regimen, regular exercise, socialization, etc., and back to the shelter it goes. The progress report also states more than 15,000 dogs and cats, representing 50 percent of the total intake at ACC shelters, were transferred from ACC to partner shelters and rescue groups. These transfers “continue to have the greatest impact on reducing euthanasia at ACC.” Such a statement also raises many questions. Moving dogs and cats out of city shelters to suburban and rural shelters doesn’t necessarily mean they are being saved, does it? Are they just being moved? And are any of them going out of state to areas of greater demand? Are there any definitive numbers or percentages of actually placing these animals in homes and how many are put down? I posed these questions to spokesperson Blaine Bilal of LAK Public Relations, Inc., who provided the press release for the Alliance, and she promptly replied via email with the following answers: Continued on page 84

he 50th anniversary celebration of our beautiful Maltese breed was held in the Chicagoland area, at the Westin in Lombard, Illinois. The Westin has hosted many specialties. The huge ballroom, the friendly staff, the wonderful food, the beautiful rooms, the proximately to shopping, easy access to either airports, or even downtown Chicago are only some of the reasons why this venue is so great for Specialties. We had visitors from all over the World, including our Asian, European, Irish, Australian, and Canadian friends. As guests checked in we had the AMA logo spotlighted at the hotelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s registration desk.

The ballroom was decorated to the hilt. Each event had lighted ring posts with huge rosettes color coordinated to the events. Our huge banner of past winners was highlighted at the back of the room. Our vendors lined up the hallway before you entered the showroom. Maltese Mania! The week launched off with our regional Evergreen Maltese Club, judged by Ms. Sandy Bingham Porter. This regional was well supported, and also a first. We have never had a regional planned during our National before. After the event, we hosted a Chicago style dinner â&#x20AC;&#x201C;hot dogs, pizza, Italian beef- and informal gathering during the evening for everyone to mix and mingle. Continued on page 92

Show Dinner the year we moved to the UK: My wife and I were sharing a table with the then (I think) former KC Chairman Sir Dudley Forwood and his wife , the lovely Lady Mary, herself a well respected CKCS breeder. Sir Dudley had on his CV: Equerry to Lord Mountbatten during his time as Viceroy of India-and a very outspoken gentlemen, versatile and open minded, with a great sense of humor. A man with many interests – and I never got over the information afforded me through Liz Cartledge: That I was not his type! Whatever that meant? Anyway, during my conversation with Lady Mary she uttered: “I hear you purchased a property in Henley.” “Yes, that was correct.” “How many acres have you got?” “Well,” I replied, “Just over 30!” “Oh, how lovely,’” was her response. Turned away and said no more. Geir for once smelt something and asked: “And how many acres do you have?” (They had a lovely country house in the New Forest). Reply: “Well , I really don’t know”! Whereupon Sir Dudley interrupts his own conversation, turns around says, “She knows. Just over ten.”…. I suspect he got to suffer from this remark in the car on the way home to their 10 acres in New Forest. If you were a (English) Cocker enthusiast Lochnell and the inimitable Marjorie Cameron at Brockweir House was always on the map, but when you next meet John Oulton he will be able to tell you some wonderful stories… And staying with (English) Cockers-Scotland was the home of a number of great breeders and characters. Jimmy Auld of Glencora fame, The Neilsons of Noslien fame, and of course Pat Shaw of the famous Lochdenes. But I still think that many ECS people around the world, when thinking of Scottish Cocker breeders, automatically come up with the name Weirdene and Richmond Weir. Although passing away a couple of years ago there were Weirdenes winning very recently, but for most people Ch Wells Fargo of Weirdene is the name that comes to mind. A great sire from the early 60’s. Anyway -Richmond with his sister lived on a farm near Falkirk and normally had quite a number on dogs on the premises. Always something young and interesting to look at. The last time we were there we purchased a couple of dogs, neither of them had any great success, but what made this visit so memorable was that hours before our arrival one of his cows had entered the living room and totally wrecked the place. An absolutely unbelievable sight- but despite at the time having a herd of some 100 Herefords ourselves, we made the 60 Dog News

decision never to try to domesticate any of them… Unfortunately the world has changed and in my opinion, not necessarily for the better. But then “House Cows” were probably never very common. At least not the four legged version…? Then a change of scene: Those good old days when terrier handlers were allowed to make a display of their own terrier temperament is just a memory. Arguments were settled behind the bar tent – and I vividly remember two famous handlers who had a little arguments at the Belfast show and came back to England needing as well dental as medical attention. There will never be another Joe Braddon sitting in the bar close to the entrance of any major show when he could, waving you over, asking: “What do you know???” and if it was in any way sensational, he made sure it was public knowledge within a few minutesThere will never be another Jean Hopwood who parked herself by the Fox terrier ring early in the morning, stayed until the groups started. And although getting a never ending supply of G&T s (I think) during the day, any information given to her was included in the next issue of Our Dogs. There will never be another be another exchange of opinions between to terrier/ experts like Joe Cartledge and Les AtkinsonJoe writing for Dog World, Les for Our Dogs. To be able to follow their deliberations you of course had to subscribe to both papers, which many then decided to do… Well there will never be another Joe nor Les- so this informal and friendly exchange of opinion between two people who were even good friends could not possibly be recreated. And to finish on a high note, quoting the saying: “What you see is what you get” isn’t always perfectly true. A very famous breeder of Westies who lived near Cambridge and who in the late 50’s early 60’s had a very strong team of stud dogs that really made an impact on the breed for a while lived in what had been a pub in days gone by. Located by the side of a major road you would see a sign by the roadside “Fresh Farm Eggs for sale!” Well, if you kept looking you wouldn’t find a single chicken or hen on the premises- as the eggs were simply “surplus or outdated” eggs purchased as dog food at the local farmers market. Which of course made some of us wonder if she was really honest in other aspects of her life- like her pedigrees. But we will never find out.

The M Word Continued FROM page 18

“Respect, admiration, prestige.” “Pssh,” George responds dismissively. “Would the protégé pick up stuff for the mentor?” “I suppose if it was on the protégé’s way to the mentor, they might.” “Laundry? Dry cleaning?” George presses. “It's not a valet,” Jerry says in exasperation. “It's a protégé.” That, of course, is the dark side of mentoring: Instead of seeing the protégé as an equal in terms of potential – why would you waste time mentoring someone you didn’t think could soar? – the mentor sees a very hierarchical relationship. His protégé may not be assigned to pick up that cashmere sweater, but there is the expectation that the protégé will grow in the same way the mentor has, and not have any new ideas or other influences. In short, the protégé will accept the party line, forever Tonto. If protégés are to be criticized for taking a McDonald’s drive-through approach to the learning process, mentors should reflect on whether they are sharing knowledge to bring along promising new dog people – which eventually evolves letting them fledge and fly on their own – or just looking to expand their ringside posse. The whole point of mentoring is to help your protégé achieve mastery – to prepare him to surpass you. Watch any episode of “Kung Fu”– that’s how it works. Nobody aspires to stay a Grasshopper forever. Nor would any true teacher wish that. True mentoring not only takes a great deal of maturity and selfconfidence on the part of the mentor, but also great respect from the protégé. Those who stomp their feet and complain about the lack of mentors forget that mentorship is not a right – it is a privilege. The basis must always be respect for what the mentor has accomplished, and gratitude for the opportunity to learn from it. It is a fine line for a protégé to respectfully give a mentor his due and explore new ideas, but it is possible. And even in mentoring relationships that have ended in fiery train wrecks – and in dogs, too many of them do – if the mentor was worth his salt, most protégés still embrace his teachings, if not him. In her book “Forget a Mentor, Find a Sponsor,” Sylvia Ann Hewlett argues that mentors are limiting because they gravitate toward protégés who are like themselves – more of that “just be a 64 Dog News

younger (and non-threatening) version of me” theme. Mentors are excellent sounding boards, dispensing sound advice and hard-earned knowledge. But they often cannot – or will not – provide what their protégés want most, which is to get ahead. “Mentors give,” Hewlett explains, “whereas sponsors invest.” In this respect, sponsors are more like backers: They see a promising young talents, oftentimes with strengths and perspectives different from their own, and work to promote them, with the intent that all will benefit – and far beyond someone fetching their dry cleaning. Some of the cleverest dog people have begun to apply the syndicate concept of backing a dog – several pockets helping a show dog to go far – to breeding itself: An established, talented breeder with a valuable and recognizable family of dogs seeds “satellite” breeding programs with talented young breeders. In this scenario, everyone benefits: The breeder has his line visible and promoted, gaining depth and breadth of breeding stock along the way, and the satellite breeders have enough autonomy to try different things, which if they work are a feather in the cap of the sponsor. These days, breeding syndicates are as close as many breeders can get to the kennel system of old, with its hundreds of dogs, dedicated staff and oftentimes brutally rigorous selection. And it’s an unassailable truth that the disappearance of traditional kennels has lead to a corresponding deficit of mentors: The list of people who have spent their lives with and around great numbers of dogs grows ever shorter. But they are not the only source of mentorship in our lives as dog people. They are just the most obvious ones. In a post on his blog, www. happinessinthisworld.com, Buddhist physician Alex Lickerman, M.D., writes that mentors and protégés need never even meet. “The disciple is the one who creates the mentor-disciple relationship simply by observing the mentor, by making the mentor’s mission his or her own, and in so doing, learning from the mentor,” he says. “Nor does the length of the mentor-disciple relationship determine its impact on the disciple.” Lickerman remembers watching an attending doctor talk to an angry patient in a way that not only validated the patient’s anger, but made it dissipate,

and opened the door for the patient to feel hopeful about his prognosis. “For those five minutes, that attending was my mentor and provided me a lesson I have never forgotten, one that still informs the way I interact with patients to this day,” he says. “A mentor-disciple relationship, in other words, can come into existence over even a brief glance, or a single, quietly spoken word,” Lickerman concludes. “Everyone has something to teach us. Everyone has the power to inspire us. It's the attitude of the disciple that creates the mentordisciple relationship, not the attitude of the mentor.” Watching a talented handler use her hands in the ring, following the placements of a respected judge, talking to a breeder of pigeons or cats – all are opportunities to open yourself up to learning. All this isn’t to say that having a traditional dog mentor isn’t important: It is. But, Lickerman reminds, you should choose wisely, and ensure that the relationship has one important quality: Trust. “In feeling trust in a mentor, we open our hearts in a particularly important way: we become willing to listen to him or her in a way we aren't willing to listen to others,” he says. “When our mentor speaks, we automatically prepare ourselves to receive value. We therefore open ourselves to change. We relax our biases, our attachment to our ego, and tend to absorb even negative feedback in a constructive way, thereby opening the door to the possibility of genuine selfimprovement. Just because an email attachment lands in your inbox doesn’t mean you open it: For every wonderful inspirational quote, there is a guy from Nigeria trying to get your banking information. Similarly, just because someone offers to be a mentor – “I passed my background check!” – doesn’t mean they have anything worthwhile to give you. “The greatest benefit, in the end, to choosing a mentor is the way it opens our minds to hearing difficult truths and makes possible our growth in a way no other relationship can,” Lickerman concludes. “… We should all choose our mentors wisely. For that choice will bias us to believe what we hear from them. So what we hear from them had better be the truth.” Dog News 49

whether the fetuses are in distress. If the bitch is in good condition with normal sized puppies and no obstruction, medical treatment can be attempted to complete delivery of the puppies. Oxytocin can be given intramuscularly and repeated at 30-minute intervals for a maximum of three injections. Subcutaneous administration of oxytocin is not effective in these situations. Normal blood calcium and glucose (sugar) levels are required for strong uterine contractions. Calcium gluconate or dextrose solutions can be given if the bitch is hypocalcemic or hypoglycemic. A Caesarean section is indicated if there is no response to the oxytocin, or if the puppies are too large for a vaginal delivery. In a Caesarean section, the puppies are removed through an incision in the uterine wall. In cases where the bitch has a previous history of dystocia (trouble delivering), or in breeds that are at high risk for developing dystocia, an elective caesarean section may be scheduled for just before the due date.

My dog ate an ant trap. Is it toxic?

The Avermectin contained in most ant traps is not toxic to dogs. The bait contains other ingredients such as peanut butter, bread crumbs and sugar to attract the ants. If the ant trap is eaten, the real concern is the possibility of obstruction if the plastic container becomes lodged in the stomach or intestines. Most of the time, the traps are chewed a little but not swallowed by the dog. Not to worry. Many ant and roach traps are made from either sticky paper or chlor72 Dog News

pyrifos, which has a low level of toxicity in mammals, but is highly toxic to insects. You could see some vomiting and a little diarrhea if your dog eats these traps. Arsenic is a toxic substance that is not commonly used these days. Poisoning from arsenic can occur when very old insect traps are ingested. Since 1989, the use of arsenic in bug traps has greatly decreased, but there are still some of these traps out there. The lethal dose of arsenic is 1 to 25 mg per kilogram of body weight. Signs of poisoning include severe vomiting, diarrhea and nausea. If caught early, most dogs can be treated and recover. If treatment is delayed and the signs of illness are severe, the dog may die. If your dog has eaten an ant or insect trap, check the active ingredients on the label. If arsenic is present, call your veterinarian or the poison control hotline immediately. While ant traps are generally not toxic, slug and snail bait is another story. Metaldehyde is a common active ingredient in slug and snail poisons. It comes in multiple forms such as pellets, liquids, powders, and granules. Ingestion of metaldehyde causes rapid onset of neurological symptoms such as nervousness, tremors and seizures that begin within one to four hours. Repeated seizures can lead to severe hyperthermia (increased body temperature) with temperatures reaching 108oF. Body organs will fail and death will result without immediate treatment. Hospitalization and fluid therapy for 24 to 72 hours is required after swallowing metaldehyde. If you think your dog ate metaldehyde, call your veterinarian or poison control hotline immediately for life-saving advice.

chnauzers Start Your Engines!

THE 2015 STANDARD SCHNAUZER NATIONAL SPECIALTY "Schnauzers - Start Your Engines" was the banner headline for the 2015 Standard Schnauzer Club of America National Specialty held at the Richmond Raceway Complex June 25th through 29th. According to Liz Mohrenweiser, SSCA President, "All Standard Schnauzer engines ran at full throttle in multiple venues from Thursday through Monday. It was wonderful to see a large entry with representatives from all areas with significant quality throughout the classes," said Mohrenweiser. By Arden Holst

xhibitors and enthusiasts began arriving in Richmond, VA early in the week. Specialty activities were divided between the ballroom and hospitality suite at the Clarion Hotel and the show grounds at the Richmond International Raceway. It was a fun-packed week hosted by the Potomac Valley Standard Schnauzer Club under the experienced eye of Show Chair, Patricia White. Specialty activities kicked off Thursday morning with the PVSSC sponsored Barn Hunt. Ex76 Dog News

hibitors and their Schnauzers had a great time looking through all those hay bales to locate the hidden rats. The breed has a strong instinct and they showed it at the trial. Thursday afternoon and evening Education was at the top of the agenda. Club member Liz Hansen spoke about the status of research being completed at the University of Missouri on the functional analysis of the gene associated with Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

Following a break for dinner, we were back at the hotel to hear reproductive specialist Valeria Rickard, DVM. Topics covered were preparation of the bitch prior to breeding, care during pregnancy and how to manage whelping difficulties. Dr Rickard's clear and easy-to-understand coverage was helpful to the audience and she offered information useful to the beginner and the experienced breeder alike. Following a question and answer period everybody adjourned to a wine reception for a bit of socializing. Friday morning was the beginning of the shows at the Richmond Raceway, a short 10-minute drive from the hotel. Two Standard Schnauzer specialties, one local, one national, and two supported entry shows were held in conjunction with the Blue Crab Cluster: Southern Maryland K.C. on Friday and Saturday and Tidewater K. C. on Sunday and Monday. Schnauzer judging was centered in the same roomy hall all weekend with grooming areas located close to the rings so exhibitors could watch judging progress as they groomed their dogs. The Friday show was Potomac Valley Standard Schnauzer Club's 47th Specialty. Sweepstakes started promptly at 8:00 a.m. and included both puppy and veteran classes under breeder/judge Stavros Chryssidis from Denmark. He selected as his Best in Sweeps the Junior Puppy, Celtic Cross Hanky Panky owned by Rosemary, Kelsey & Sarah Miller from Manassas, VA. BOS was Best Senior Puppy, Arbor's Abraham Lincoln owned by Klare McNeil from Monroe, NY. In the Veteran Sweepstakes competition, GCH Morgenwald 78 Dog News

Prim N Proper V Katon won Best Veteran in Sweeps. This 9-year-old bitch is owned and bred by Kathy Koehler, Penny Duffee and Connie Reidner from Bloomington Illinois. Best Opposite in Veteran Sweepstakes was GCH Stahlkrieger's Proud Spirit owned by Glovis Gualt Jr from Elkridge, MD. Roger Hartinger judged the 113-dog entry in the regular classes at the PVSSC Specialty. He selected Erregen's Little Deuce Coupe owned by Thomas & Susan Katzenstein from Italy, TX as Winners Dog and Sayermarc Asgard Bliss, owned by Georgia Sabean and Jean Gillen from Warrenton, VA as Winners Bitch and Best of Winners. The 60 plus specials were quite a sight as they filed into the ring. Hartinger chose a bitch as his Best of Breed, GCH Katon's Eye Of The Tiger v Morgenwald owned and bred by Kathy Koehler, Penny Duffee and Connie Reidner. Best Opposite was Cachet Majestic Night Storm owned by Kathlene Crist from Austin, TX. Friday afternoon was set-aside for the SSCA Judges Education Seminar held at the hotel and attended by nine judges. While the seminar was in progress, club members returning from the show gathered in the hospitality room where they could peruse the Schnauzer Art booths, pick up their hospitality bags and socialize. A barbecue dinner and the SSCA Annual Meeting finished off the day. The much-anticipated 78th SSCA National began promptly at 8:00 a.m. the next morning. The National Specialty recorded an official entry of 127 in the regular classes: 24 dogs, 35 bitches, 40 specials dogs and 28 specials bitches. In addition there were sweepstakes and non-regular classes for veterans, Brood Bitch, Stud Dog, Brace and finally The Parade of Titlists, 35 in all, taking their turn around the ring to spectator applause. Judge for regular classes was Paula Hartinger, the other half Continued on page 80

of the Hartinger team and a favorite of Schnauzer exhibitors. Judging the sweepstakes classes was Andrew Kidd, a breeder/judge all the way from Red Banks, Australia. Sweepstakes began only a few minutes ahead of regular class judging in an adjacent ring. Mr. Kidd worked his way through the entry of 23 puppies and 16 veterans and chose as his Best In Puppy Sweepstakes, Hartgersotten's Luck of the Draw owned and bred by Bob Fadick & Vivian Kurowski and Kellae Fisher from Wylie, TX. Best Opposite Sex in Sweepstakes went to the Best Junior puppy from the 6-9 month puppy dog class, Ernharts Cool Under Pressure owned by Kelly Radcliffe & Shawne Imler from Camp Hill, PA. Winner of the Veteran Sweepstakes was 11-year-old GCH Halcyon's Kipling CGC owned by Pamela Minnich of York, PA. Best Opposite in Veteran Sweeps was CH Always Keepin the Faith owned by Darlene Cornell & Pat Koller. The puppy sweepstakes had just gotten under way when Paula Hartinger began judging the regular classes. With careful timing, no one missed the ring in spite of the apparent conflict. Allowing ample time for each entry, she methodically worked her way through the large entry. From the classes she chose as Winners Dog, Argenta's Maximillian Merritt owned by Joy Roth & Valerie Yantz of Summerfield, NC. Reserve went to Jordan Kensington of Windtree owned by Sondra Lambert of Afton, MN. Winners Bitch from the open class was won by Von Rose Star of Bethlehem v Morgenwald owned by Donald Kachur from Bloomington, IL. Reserve from the Bred-by class (earning a 3-point major because of the large entry) was Himmlisch-Arjo's A Blast From the Past owned by Kathleen & Roy Dvorak from Westminster, Colorado.

Following a break, judging commenced with 68 specials filing into the ring. In the end, Best of Breed was awarded to GCH Mistic's Longfellow Serenade owned by Sally Marsh & Al DeRenzis from Baltimore, MD. This was Schweitzer's third National in a row and the win allowed his owners to retire the beautiful Peggy Smith Perpetual Trophy donated many years earlier by Sue Baines. Later in the afternoon "Schweitzer" placed second in the Working Group. Opposite Sex was won by GCH Blue Lines Asta owned by Betsy Davison from Reston, VA. Best of Winners went to the class dog, Argenta's Maximillian Merritt. Best of Breed Owner Handled was GCH Seneca- Hartgersotten's Luck Be A Lady with Bob Fadick. Select Dog was GCH Halcyon's Be The Change You Wish To See and Select Bitch, GCH Katon's Eye Of The Tiger V Morgenwald.

ally and Obedience Results were as follows: High Scoring Obedience Dog was CH OTCH Shanaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Iceman UDX4 OM7, Owners: Dr. Robert Knight and Cathryn Knight who also retired the Greenwalt Obedience Challenge Trophy. High Scoring Rally was CH Oakwood Thousand Memories UDX OM1 BN GN VER RAE AX AXJ OF CGC THDN, Owner: Marcia Dawson. That evening everybody moved back to the hotel for the SSCA Annual Awards Banquet. The 2014 SSCA Dog of the Year was the day's National Specialty BB winner, GCH Mistic's Longfellow Serenade. Receiving the Dog the the Year, Opposite Sex award was the BB winner from Friday's PVSSC Specialty, GCH Katon's Eye of the Tiger v Morgenwald. The Best Junior Handler Award went to Grace Freeman.

One of the highlights of the evening was the presentation of the Ruth Inman Service Award. The award is kept secret until the Awards Dinner so Georgia Sabean, this year's recipient was truly surprised. "I can't believe it!" She exclaimed when it was announced. It made sense to everybody else though as Sabean has been a SSCA member since 1971 and has contributed much to the club and breed as a whole. As expressed by club president, Liz Mohrenweiser, Georgia has worked consistently for the Standard Schnauzer Club of America, as well as her local PVSSC and all-breed club. Congratulations Georgia and all of our award recipients! Though the National Specialty events ended with the Awards Dinner, there were two more dog shows. Two local clubs, Knickerbocker SSC and Greater Pittsburgh SSC, supported the breed entry on Sunday and Monday with trophies, and there were two more Best of Breed winners, CH Shana's Blue Bayou on Sunday and GCH Silhouette's Dirty Harry on Monday both going on to group placements. Looking back over the shows one has the impression of a strong entry of competitive dogs. The results reflect this in that winners varied and no individual seemed to dominate the competition. For example, in the four days of competition for Breed, Opposite Sex, WD or WB, only one dog repeated a win. This is especially meaningful in that of the six regular and sweepstakes judges, five had spent a significant number of years owning/showing Standard Schnauzers. The 2015 National was most impressive. Hats off to the host club, PVSSC, and the committee who worked so hard on this event.

Helter-Shelter

Continued FROM page 52

■ These non-profit partner shelters and rescue groups only take in animals that they are able to house with the intent of having them adopted. ■ Animals are not sent to rural shelters, they are sent to shelters who have the room for them with the intent of having them adopted. ■ Again, as stated above, the animals are not just being moved, they are being transferred to not-for-profit shelters and groups who have the space with the intent of having them adopted. ■ There are occasionally participating non-profit groups or shelters in other northeastern states who have the space for adoptable animals. ■ No, there are no definitive numbers. The report reflects participating members of the Alliance for New York City’s Animals. So, while the Alliance deserves credit for its effort to rehome or save animals, many questions remain. It has successfully raised awareness about low cost and free spay/neuter services for both owned pets and the stray and feral community to reduce the euthanasia rate and has worked with over 150 different groups and shelters to promote these services and increase adoptions but the largely unregulated shelter system remains somewhat of a mystery. There is a lack of

84 Dog News

f f O e th e lsa h transparency and inadequate oversight of an unknown number of non-profit shelters in the US, which the NAIA estimates to be anywhere from 3,000 to 6,000 and Petfinder claims to be 5,000. The interstate and international trafficking of dogs continues to be a problematic issue, with well documented cases of diseased and rabid dogs entering the country, and other cases of certain breeds being moved to different areas of the country where they are in demand, while smear campaigns from some organizations attempt to place blame on reputable hobby and purebred breeders for an unwanted pet population.

It’s not a problem that is limited to NYC or even the USA. This week the Guardian in the UK published a report that Pugs have become the breed du jour, replacing the handbag accessory that the Chihuahua became after celebrities began toting them around and the success of the ‘Beverly Hills Chihuahua’ films. However, these handbag accessory dogs quickly fall out of fashion so the chic pet owners give them to shelters like yesterday’s legwarmers to Goodwill. Chihuahua intakes at UK shelters have increased by 120% in the last five years, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and Bichon Frises intakes have doubled. In 2004, 600 Chihuahuas were registered in the UK; in 2014 over 4,000. It’s a situation with no easy solution and worth delving into in more detail than space allows but certainly a worthwhile discussion to be having here and abroad. What’s abundantly clear is that irresponsible owners and media outlets and the unregulated shelter business are at fault, not responsible breeders of purebred dogs, and that efforts to encourage spay/neuter of non-breeding dogs and to have them permanently identified so those at large can be reunited with their rightful owners have helped reduce the number of dogs entering US shelters to an all-time low.

Maltese Turn

ur next day, besides the usual hospitality and registration, headed by Cheryl Filson and Mary Ann Archuleta, our Board Meeting was held. For our visitors and exhibitors, we had our first day of seminars. In the morning, Dr. Ellissa Kelley talked about reproduction and had a question and answer period following. Repro is always a good discussion for new and old alike. During the afternoon, people could relax or sight see. The evening’s entertainment was our American Maltese Association’s very first TOP TWENTY Competition. Daryl Martin headed this entire event. We had an entry of 33 dogs and over 160 attendees. We invited not just the Top Twenty in Breed System, but also from the All-breed System and the an Arts and Crafts seminar. For the Owner Handler System so everyone had people curious to learn how to do pet a chance to enter.

We also had a museum of In the afternoon, we had one of our own old specialties' catalogs, pictures and Maltese breeders, Janice BIngamon, do paraphernalia from the past fifty

years, compiled by Judith Geiger and Carina Rock. On Friday, our regular show began early, and I mean early, 8:00 am. The puppy sweepstakes were judged by long time breeder, Barbara Bergquist. Nothing is more fun than watching the puppies, we always have the over schooled dogs, or the ones that are just plain spoiled. Again this year we had another first, we had cut-down sweeps and veteran sweeps, judged by long time member Judith Frichter. This event was well attended too. Following the sweeps, as per every year we have a luncheon attended by most of the people, with Rescue auctioning some great items. The luncheon was chaired by Loretta Gitto and Sue Graham. Again, as every year, after the luncheon, we have our Annual membership meeting. For those who are exhausted at this point, they could relax for the evening, or for those who needed to prepare their dogs for the finale, they had all evening to do so. On Saturday, our final day, the regular classes started at 8:00 am again. Dressed in a beautiful black and white outfit, Mrs. June Penta started her assignment. Very businesslike, but very gentle, she went through her classes like clockwork. (All results for the entire weekend can be found on the AKC site or Specialtydogshows.com) Congrats to all the winners. Our trophy tables both days were absolutely beautiful, thank you trophy chairs, Angela Stanberry and Paula Bailey, and obedience Karla McCoy. The final event after the specialty was our annual awards banquet. The theme was Gatsby, and we had quite a few people dress the style. Again, we had live music, bar and great food. Our Awards for the year were announced; we had a huge auction, with tons of Maltese stuff collected by Cindy Fern-King. Our team of Clif de Raita and Tara Rowell handled the actual auction, like true auctioneers. The end, until the next time; wonder how many will be at the next 50th? Show Chair and cruise director was Sandy Bingham Porter, and while he has no official title, Steve Porter, put to bed one of the best specialties of all time, fitting to be the 50th!

Guess who!

in advance of the offer to be made? Or was the gift offer a total surprise-that’s what should be determined. And now we have according to Facebook Carla Molinari of the FCI and Portugal and Mr. Dinky Santos of the South/east Asian Federation of the FCI calling for the banning of judges to receive assignments from any FCI show should they be critical of the awarding of the 2019 show to Shanghai. That’s pretty heavy stuff and a pretty vehement denial of freedom to speak one’s mind I would think but that’s how some of these people and organizations operate I guess. Not for me thank you very much!

onnie Irving in his last DOG NEWS article refers to an American writer who called many of the exhibits at Crufts “farm dogs” due to their presentation and condition. That’s not a totally accurate quote since I am the person to whom he referred and I remember distinctly how that quote came to pass. There was a very famous and respected (in certain quarters) dogwoman in the UK whose name was Audrey Dallison. Some of you may remember her. But as famous as she was she was equally controversial and when we started DOG NEWS Mrs. Dallison was a contributor of ours since the British dog press for all

of its virtues basically boycotted her. I met Mrs. Dallison after my first year of attending Crufts and found her both forthright and knowledgeable and asked her to write for us without having any idea of her reputation in the UK. In her very first article, which was about Crufts, she ripped into the condition and presentation of many of the exhibits calling them “farm dogs”. Well of course that caused an uproar cross the pond but it was an analysis I never forgot and with which to this day I still basically agree. Indeed I think I use that terminology to this day and of course many of the Brits particularly Mr. Irving re-

spond by calling to my attention the over presentation of so many of our dogs here in the States. A fact with which I basically agree with as well. Just wanted to clear up that point for my own satisfaction. And now comes THE NEW YORK TIMES in its Science Times section of July 21 announcing that a Veterinary Record reports that at Crufts one in four dogs that placed in the top five of their class were overweight! Of course these analysis were based on photographs--sort of like mentoring over the phone--see next paragraph but that could explain both Mrs. Dallison’s and my reaction to the condition of some of the dogs exhibited at Crufts both then and now.

t was called to my attention that among the many odious and totally unacceptable provisions of the new Judging Approval Process about to go into effect is the provision permitting someone to mentor a judge in a telephone conversation!!! My god the By-Laws prohibit a Board Member to vote when ill or unable to attend a meeting by telephone and the majority on this

Board approve mentoring to judge by telephone!!! The next thing you know weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be judging dogs by computer. Can it possibly be true that the Board Member in charge of this process is someone who has been turned down three times for additional breeds due at least to the unacceptable applications submitted? No wonder this Board majority believes anyone should be able to judge any breed they want even if they have no experience with the breed and/or group. As a very well respected judge said to me the other day under this Board we will soon have green dogs and not only wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t this majority care they would not recognize the difference!

he nominating committee for the Class of 2020 has been selected by the Board of Directors of the American Kennel Club. The committee will select three delegates to fill the three open seats. The three directors whose fouryear terms are up and can run again are PATRICIA CRUZ, the delegate from the Heart of the Plains Kennel Club, WILLIAM FEENEY, the delegate from the Sir Francis Drake Kennel Club, and THOMAS POWERS, the delegate from the Kennel Club of Beverly Hills. The committee consists of the Chairman JOHN SHOEMAKER, delegate from the Redwood Empire Kennel Club, MARY MANNING-STOLZ, delegate from the Tampa Bay Kennel Club, MARY LOU OLSZEWSKI, delegate from the American Bloodhound Club,

chairman of the English Kennel Club SIMON LOXMOORE has reinstated the club’s biannual meetings for the first time in eight years. The first one will be held in November. Following that meeting, members will have high tea at the new building on Clarges Street, giving them their first look at the new home of the Kennel Club. An article in the Wall Street Journal about people renting puppies for celebratory parties. Really!? Sad news, with the passing of CORA NUNNALLY MILLER, well known and successful breeder of Whippets under the Hound Hill prefix. CORA’S original breed was Afghan hounds but she found her true calling with Whippets. Beautiful inside and out, even those exotic Afghans didn’t hold a candle

LARRY SORENSON, delegate from the Dachshund Club of America, and PEGGY WAMPOLD, delegate from the South Windsor Kennel Club. The two alternates are ANN GALLANT, delegate from the Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen Club of America, and KENNY SAENZ, delegate from the Chihuahua Club of America. Last year’s election was pretty much a slam-dunk for the three directors being reelected; this upcoming election might bring some surprises. Among the judges returning from a judging assignment from Sweden are JOYCE VANEK, PEGGY BEISEL-MCILWAINE, DICK MEEN & JOHN REEVE-NEWSON. BETH SWEIGART & PETER GREEN just returned from judging in Denmark. Spending several days in New York, SUSAN & VICTOR MALZONI, JR. and from London, JOHN SPURLING. KAREN WILSON is readying to travel, returning to Australia where she will be judging another Royal dog show. MICHAEL SHEPHERD is holidaying in Aruba. The new

to her beauty. She was a marvelous lady and great competitor. Truly one of the underrated greats in our sport. She will be missed by all who knew her. All of us at DOG NEWS send our deepest sympathies to her family and friends and especially to her longtime handler PHOEBE BOOTH. Celebrating Birthdays…PAULA NYKIEL, BOB SMITH, ELLEN COTTINGHAM and TODD CLYDE.

Letters to the Editor AKC PAC ACTIVITY I just wanted to update you on the latest AKC PAC activity. The attached letter went out (via email) today to all previous AKC PAC donors under the following headline: Elect Alpha Dogs (And Rehome Those That Aren’t) This is the kick-off to our annual fundraising efforts for the PAC. Happily, the new GR microsite now allows people to donate online using a credit card and to become sustaining donors with small automatic monthly donations. We can’t predict much about the 2016 elections yet, but we can be sure it will tougher and more expensive than ever. Please don’t hesitate to give me a call if you have any questions. And thanks again for all you do for our sport! Sheila Goffe Director, Government Relations Raleigh, NC

contribute to campaigns of dog-friendly challengers. Please help elect more alpha dogs by donating to the AKC PAC, today and in 2016. Better yet, use the new feature on the AKC PAC website to set up a recurring donation. Click here and scroll down, select your AKC club, click on “make donation”, and click “recurring contribution” on the donor form. A recurring contribution of $20 per month beginning June 2015 and ending May 2016 will result in a total donation of $300. That’s significant. Or you can set up a recurring contribution weekly, every two weeks, monthly, or quarterly in the amount of your choice. No matter what amount you choose to give, 100% of that money goes directly to support campaigns of candidates who share our commitment to reasonable laws that protect dogs and your rights. Thank you. Together, we WILL make a difference. Sincerely, Carl Ashby, III Chairman, AKC PAC

Dear AKC PAC Contributor: As a knowledgeable dog owner, you are an expert observer of canine behavior. One dog—a strong, confident, intelligent individual—emerges as the leader. That dog, male or female, is the alpha dog. We need more alpha dogs in Congress and in our statehouses— strong leaders who will defend the rights of dog owners and breeders, sponsor positive laws to protect dogs, and reject the ongoing barrage of nonsensical legislation promoted by extremist groups. Your past contributions to the American Kennel Club Political Action Committee (AKC PAC) helped financially support the campaigns of alpha dogs. During the 2014 election cycle, 92% of candidates supported by the AKC PAC won their races. That’s a great start. Campaigning for 2016 has already begun, and the AKC PAC is gearing up, too. We are asking for your renewed support to replenish the funds needed to keep good lawmakers in office and to

AKC CONTINUES COMMITMENT TO BREEDER EDUCATION WITH “BRED WITH H.E.A.R.T.” The American Kennel Club (AKC®) continues its long-standing commitment to advance the health and welfare of all dogs with the launch of its new program Bred with H.E.A.R.T. (Health, Education, Accountability, Responsibility and Tradition) Modeled after the successful Breeder of Merit program, Bred with H.E.A.R.T. is a new way to engage, encourage and recognize all breeders who meet specific health testing standards and who participate in continuing education. The health testing requirements for each breed are based on the recommendations of the respective Parent Club as documented in their Code of Ethics or in the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals’ Canine

Letters may be mailed to Dog News 1115 Broadway NY, NY 10010 or emailed to dognews@harris-pub.com. Health Information Center (CHIC). “This program is great because it not only requires participants to health test their breeding stock, it provides resources and education which will benefit all breeders, from beginners to experts,” says Susan LaCroix Hamil, Chair of the AKC Delegate Canine Health Committee. The AKC has partnered with famed dog author and Breeding Expert Claudia Waller Orlandi, Ph.D, to make her books, ABC’s of Dog Breeding and Practical Canine Anatomy & Movement, available in course format on www. akc.org. Orlandi has been an AKC Breeder of the Year and is also a judge and former chairman of the Breeders/ Judges Education Committee for the Bassett Hound Club of America. She also shares her vast knowledge on dog breeding at seminars and symposiums held around the world. “Knowledge is power in all phases of our lives,” Orlandi said. “The more a breeder knows about the science of breeding healthy dogs the more they can control canine genetic diseases in their breeding programs.” Breeders can study the material in both of the books at no cost on the breeder education web pages and can opt to be tested on the material and receive a certificate upon passing the examinations. The site will also include other educational materials to help educate all types of breeders (http:// education.akc.org). “Responsible breeders are always striving to improve their knowledge and the effectiveness of their breeding programs, but it can be difficult to find convenient educational opportunities on the latest breeding best practices,” said Mark Dunn, VP, Registration & Customer Development, AKC. “Bred with H.E.A.R.T. will help improve the education and capability of all breeders and ensure the happiness and health of all purebred dogs.” In order to participate in the Bred with H.E.A.R.T. program, breeders must meet the following criteria: • Have registered at least one AKC litter within the last 5 years Continued on page 125

AKC Jessica Rice D’Amato Public Relations Manager New York, NY Changes to AKC Breed Histories There has been concern expressed by fanciers in some breeds, where other registries have changed the historical country of origin. The AKC board therefore reaffirmed its own criteria for making such a change at the July 20-21, 2015 Board Meeting. Statement Release Changes to AKC Breed Histories Questions have arisen regarding modification to the history of particular breeds of purebred dogs. The AKC will make no changes to breed historical references in its records, unless there is a formal, documented and substantiated request made by the applicable AKC Parent Club. Any decision regarding the changes to historical breed references will be handled on a case-bycase basis when the request is received from a Parent Club. Jim Crowley AKC New York, NY NEW CONFORMATION JUDGING APPROVAL PROCESS Dear AKC Conformation Judges, The Judging Operations Department is writing to you to inform you that all information and forms pertaining to the new Judging Approval Process effective September 1, 2015 adopted by the Board of

Directors have now been posted on the AKC website. All information may be accessed via the Conformation Judging Resource Center page. To avoid confusion, all forms specific to the process set to expire the end of August have been removed from the website. If needed, they may be received upon request from Judging Operations. All applications for conformation judging approval received on or after September 1, 2015 must meet the criteria of the newly adopted process and must be submitted on the revised forms dated “September 1, 2015”. Please be advised the Board did approve three modifications to the process at its July 2015 meeting that would be classified as “housekeeping”. Those changes have been reflected in the updated version of the process posted on the AKC website. For your convenience, you may click on the appropriate link below to take you directly to a specific form/information. • 2015 Judging Approval Process • Frequently Asked Questions • New Breed Applicant Information And Forms •Additional Breed Applicant Information and Forms • Additional Breed Verification Forms • Requesting Regular Status • Request for a Non-Approved Individual to Judge a Specialty Show • Parent Club Recommendation that a Member be Approved on Permit Status We will also be distributing a special edition of the judges newsletter, The Standard, dedicated to the new Conformation Judging Approval Process. You should expect to receive this issue via email within the next week. It will include articles explaining individual aspects of the process and any changes from the requirements of the current and/ or previous policies. In addition to being distributed via email, current and previous issues may be found on the AKC website. We do hope this information will provide clarity and answer the questions that you may have. We are happy to answer any questions that may remain once you have reviewed the materials which may be emailed to judgingops@akc.org. Sincerely, Tim Thomas Director, Dog Show Judges

FREE LIVE STREAMING AT THE INTERNATIONAL A GILITY FESTIVAL The Kennel Club has announced that, thanks to a partnership with Working-dog.eu, all competitions held in the main ring over the four days of the International Agility Festival this August will be streamed live online and will be free to watch. All viewers need to do is go to http://de.working-dog.eu/ livestream/overview to view the live streaming in the main ring. Handlers are asked to go on the website and register information about their dog(s) and create their own personal profile at http://www.working-dog. eu/ so the live streaming company can link any runs which they stream from the main ring to that dog to be viewed afterwards. Working-dog.eu is the world’s leader in online dog information, live streaming and latest dog sport results, with over 160,000 users viewing 1.5m dogs and 150,000 videos. They also hold videos of other agility and obedience championships from all around the world for ‘Premium’ members to view. Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Secretary, commented: “The new partnership with Working-dog.eu delivers an exciting service so that viewers and handlers alike won’t miss any of the action in the main ring of the International Agility Festival this year. “This will provide an excellent opportunity for agility enthusiasts from around the world to see the main competitions at the event, even if they aren’t able to be there in person.” The Kennel Club International Agility Festival is held at Rockingham Castle from Thursday 13th – Sunday 16th August. More than 2,700 dogs of all types, sizes and experience levels will compete across 16 agility rings, with dogs jumping and weaving their way around the various courses. The festival is kindly supported by CSJ Specialist Canine Feeds. The festival is the world’s largest agility festival and sees competitors from all over the world travel to compete.
