MEET THE BREEDS The more than 30,000 cat and dog lovers who attended Meet the Breeds at the Javits Center in New York City this past weekend were greeted by Indian Summer like weather. In the past this event was held in November and the drop in attendance this year may be attributed to the glorious weather which encouraged outdoor rather than indoor activities for families in particular which of course are the predominate attendees at this kind of an event. Javits was unavailable for the dates of the past and management there has the reputation for being difficult to work with as they have had a virtual monopoly as “the” convention site for NYC. This may change slightly due to the new great Auditorium in Brooklyn which is attracting such international attention. Called the Barclays Center it certainly is reputed to be giving Madison Square Garden a run for its bookings and is offering great rental reductions to lure events there. Perhaps both Westminster and AKC should consider, if they have not done so already, talking to management at Barclays in the possibility the space in Brooklyn fills the needs of either organization’s events. Nonetheless the crowds at Javits were large and appreciative of the opportunity to see pets they want to possibly own to say nothing of the varied concessionaires with all sorts of dog and cat paraphernalia to see and buy. Of course without the support of Pet Partners, AKC’s pet insurance firm and partner, it would be just that much more difficult to present this sort of affair with which to begin. It should be noted as well that Pet Partners is also underwriting the dinner at the Theatre Party given at Westminster time but now associated with the AKC’s Humane Fund instead of the Museum of the Dog in St. Louis. There is no denying the positive effect in legislative circles this event provides for AKC to say nothing of encouraging people in the Tri-State area to own an AKC registered dog. This Meet the Breeds is a great triumph for AKC and was conceived and implemented and broadened through the auspices of the hard work of its President Dennis Sprung with the strongest of support from the Board at AKC as well. RACHEL RAY’S MISGUIDED ‘GOOD’ INTENTIONS It is reported that Rachel Ray, the “tv” chef, has started giving away the dog food Nutrish from a food truck and along with Best Friends Animal Society, a Rachael Ray partner, with two local rescue organizations will have puppies available for adoption at the truck site. These truck food operations are questionable enough health ways for human consumption but now we have Ms. Ray not only giving her food away from a truck she will be offering dogs for adoption at these sites to boot!! Totally unacceptable is the reaction here to these reports that’s for sure. Nutrish is manufactured by the family owned Ainsworth Pet Nutrition Company in Meadville, PA. It is said that Ms. Ray donates a portion of her end of her profits from this product to animal welfare organizations. Reads good on paper but which organizations one must ask are so benefiting. And now she is adding adoption sites to food truck giveaways for dogs! Nutrish claimed a 2.8 per cent share, $22.6 million of the $823 million in dry dog food sales in grocery stores in the four 10 Dog News
weeks ending September 29th and was according to the Nielsen report the fastest growing brand in the six-week period ending September 29th. Good luck to them is our attitude but no good luck if they are operating an adoption impulse dog ownership operation next to its food truck giving away food. That’s the worst kind of appeal and propaganda for the long term ownership of a dog these pages have heard of in years. Sounds like PETA or HSUS promotions to sell or adopt more dogs in a period of time by giving away money to do this. OOPS guess what the goal of the Rachael Ray $100K Challenge is. Together with the ASPCA it will give away monies to the 50 animal shelters which attempt to save at least 300 more dogs and cats from August to October--great goal. The incentive is that the most successful shelter will win $100,000 with other shelters winning lesser amounts. And what will be the interest of these shelters in the adoption procedures one must ask? You guessed right in our opinion if you thought it’s in winning the 100 grand. Seeing to it that the dogs and cats go to the best homes or winning these prize monies. Shame on you Ms. Ray, and the ASPCA and Nutrish as well!
THE COO No official word yet on a selection to replace John Lyons. Should the position be filled at all is one of the questions reported to be raised as some people seem to believe it is a totally redundant job with which to begin. And these people may be correct but the gut feel here is that just as the position of Vice President in Charge of Judging Operations needs to be filled so does the job of the COO. Particularly is this true with the offices divided between New York and North Carolina as there must be a presence certainly in North Carolina of someone to whom to report. Else the confusion perceived by those in the Fancy unhappy with aspects of the new judging approval formulas could further extend to all aspects of matters AKC. Now then there are people who would like to see AKC’s offices reunited as one again. Some people believe New York should be closed others believe equally as strong in closing North Carolina and returning headquarters to NYC. Unfortunately and sadly too in the opinion of these pages the search for the new COO is part and parcel tied into the problems AKC has in operating as a corporation in these times. AKC is neither fish nor fowl-not a traditional not-for-profit organization nor a traditional for profit either. Its constitution and by-laws prevent it from moving head-on into the 21st century as the social age of communicating is bypassing AKC on a daily basis. Until an enlightened Delegate Body permits a radical change in AKC’s business operations filling a position such as COO, which should be a comparatively easy thing to accomplish, will remain a major hurdle within the sphere of this type of undefined organization. YES IT IS CONFUSING The new judges approval processes for applicants with long time successful careers in the sport of the competitive dog can be befuddled by the latest ‘invitational’ processes. These pages are not too certain where the idea of encouraging people to write in letters suggesting rapid advancement for certain individuals came from but there is no doubt it is confusing many within the sport. Intended to help distinguish the wheat from the chafe--and it has in certain instances been very successful-- too many people do not understand who it is who should be writing letters to advance individuals. It would appear that anyone can do this but on what sort of basis. Solicited or unsolicited and how many of these letters are necessary to gain recognition and who is it who makes the decision to accept or reject the recommendation. Can the average applicant just walk up to any judge and request such a letter be sent in or must the person sending the letter act on his or her own knowledge of an applicant’s intent? That seems to be the major hurdle to answer and overcome these days or in any event that’s what these pages are hearing in the field when we attend various dog show events. THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK The new song heard in the Fancy these days follows the theme of “Fly Me To the Moon”-have you ever seen more flying around on the same weekends? Really now the next thing one will hear of is being in Shanghai to compete in a World Show on Friday and in California on Saturday and back to Shanghai for Sunday. Come on if the authorities can’t or won’t step in and stop this sort of thing how about some good old common sense. When is enough enough?

INSIDE The Sport
AUTUMN CLASSIC Judging at the recent Catonsville Kennel Club was like a trip down Memory Lane for me, thanks to Alice Watkins, Danny Seymour and a few others with whom one could reminisce when the day was done. Along with its partner show in my youth-the Rock Creek Kennel Club- Catonsville was once amongst the last outdoor shows of the year and could usually be counted on to draw a nice entry in my breed-the Norwegian Elkhound.
BY PAT TROTTER
T
hose were the days when Art and Ruth Benhoff were the movers and shakers in the Catonsville Club along with Mel Downing and Leon Seligman. Mel served as club president for years. The beloved Benhoffs were the breeders of some of the great ASCOB Cocker Spaniels of the 1950s and sixties, including the multi-BIS top winner Ch. Artru’s Hot Rod, the dog that propelled young handler Everett Dean to stardom. Speedy and Everett would bring huge smiles to the Benhoffs as they watched the pair glide around the ring with “Benny” acting as the Proud Poppa of both the young man and the dog! He himself handled his own Cockers well into his later years before succumbing to cancer. Mel Downing, who passed away in 2008, was a mainstay in the Maryland world of dogs as was his father before him. In 1936 Frank Downing was a founding member of the Baltimore County Kennel Club. Both father and son were highly respected all-breed judges for decades as was their fellow Marylander-the stately Carey Lindsay. The Catonsville Kennel Club was formed a few years later in 1942, and after World War II started hosting shows on a regular basis. The club was noted for having an open membership in the days when kennel club memberships were not that easy to attain. The 2012 weekend and venue were shared by the National Capital Kennel Club that once held its benched shows in downtown Washington D.C. at the National Guard Armory. Now sharing the site with Catonsville, the National Capital Kennel Club’s show chair Al Ferruggiaro also
14 Dog News
shared his club’s history with us. Between military uses of the National Guard Armory over the years, the degree of difficulty handling parking as dog handlers started utilizing large rigs and assorted other problems associated with the location of the city show, NCKC eventually came to the Howard County location where many Maryland clubs now hold their shows. Originally, dog shows held at the Howard County grounds were outside as there were no buildings on the grounds. Later the CKC helped finance improvement of the buildings now used and the CKC probably has the oldest claim to the Fairgrounds as sponsors of dog shows held there. This is a community-oriented club that purchased three guard/bomb dogs after 9/11 and donated them to the state police. Their most recent purchase-“Bella” the Bloodhound-was donated to the Baltimore County police and performed some of her skills for the public at Saturday’s show. Other worthy causes of the club include donations to horse riding therapy for needy children, sending packages to our troops in the Middle East, MakeA-Wish donations and support of the Wounded Warriors Program... Catonsville and National Capital personnel outdo themselves to be user-friendly to all with parking and unloading very accessible, spacious well-matted show rings, attention to decorative detail, hospitality for all and in general-making sure everyone has a good time. Autumn Classic decorations were setup throughout the show arena by club personnel and brought an air of celebration to the shows. These were very personable dog shows that provided three
different BIS winners in the Old English Sheepdog GCh. Whisperwood’s Wild Horse, the American Foxhound Ch. Kiarry’s Pandora’s Box, and the Affenpinscher GCh. Banana Joe V Tani Kazari. A special highlight for judges, ring stewards and club officials was provided by Western High School of Technology catering a superb gourmet luncheon under the direction of their teacher-chef Lisa Christhilf. Clad in white chef hats and white jackets, they would have done Emeril proud as these sophomores served crab soup, gourmet salads and out of this world sandwiches. All of it was topped off by absolutely divine desserts the youngsters prepared with flair and expertise as you watched-using pastry tubes to decorate and little flamers to make burnt sugar pecan praline toppings. The students take cooking classes their freshman year, then move on to catering events in their second year of high school. CKC has been utilizing their expertise now for five years. Their lunches on Friday and Saturday were so excellent, it was hard to think it could be matched on Sunday when the students don’t work–yet NCKC rose to the occasion with sliced tenderloin and crab imperial. When it comes to getting it right with crab, Maryland gourmands have the recipes and the touch. Club president Helen Prince even knows how to make bread pudding with crab! Club officials are rightly proud of the fine dining experiences enjoyed by all. The use of high school students here and elsewhere by kennel clubs is perhaps an untapped source for bringing newcomers into dogs by utilizing various ways of connecting with youngsters. While our fancy struggles to welcome more prospective fanciers into our midst, we often overlook potential areas that could be productive. After all, many of our most dedicated dog people fell in love with dogs in their childhood and never looked back. This is an area I plan to investigate more in the future. And many thanks to those of you who continue to give me feedback, especially over expanded AKC activities. Your thoughts and concerns are vital to the well being of our sport and will continue to be addressed in this column.

nbreeding (or what we in dogs call linebreeding in its less intense form) is a favorite whipping boy of the critics of purebred dogs – and some within our own ranks, too. But it seems it is always the theorists – the animal rightists, the academics-steeped professors, the theriogenologically challenged veterinarians – who most vocally criticize breeders, without ever having stepped into a whelping box themselves. Would that everyone who writes an article, films a documentary or posts on Facebook

about how breeders should breed be required to plan, whelp, rear and follow a dozen litters – not just one or two, as that does not give the breeding gods adequate time to deliver their cruel curveballs. Indeed, rarely it is the long-term and successful breeder (the two adjectives are not mutually inclusive) who gets on the bully pulpit about the perils of linebreeding. The more accomplished the breeder, the fewer absolutes he or she dispenses. Continued on page 46

Have you been solicited to write a letter to AKC suggesting that a judge be given more breeds than presently permitted by AKC--if not solicited have you voluntarily done this-How do you determine which breeds to recommend to AKC? Do you send the person a copy of your letter and to whom is your letter addressed? I raise this question due to the confusion many people have about the implementation of this new approval system.

I believe the person is highly qualified to fast track and we have few of this ilk. No specific breeds were mentioned in my letter and it was addressed to the committee in charge of this process.

chuck winslow I have been solicited to write a letter for two people but I chose not to do so. I really believe strongly in the hard work that the committee has put into this new system, not only in an effort to advance judges that have proven their ability to evaluate breeding stock but even more in the need to stop judges who haven’t a clue and make no effort or have no interest in improving. Therefore, I could not in good faith recommend these judges.

DOUG Holloway I have not been solicited by anyone to suggest that the AKC should give them more breeds. I haven’t given much thought to who I would recommend to further their judges’ career (I’m having enough trouble blowing my own horn to tell them why I deserve more breeds, never mind other people). If I were to recommend a person to the AKC, I would have to had known the person to be a student of any breed and the dog game for a lengthy matter of time. There are quite a few out there that have made a career being students and being involved in the dog game that deserve to have breeds
Bob Stein Have not been solicited and have not done so voluntarily. Desi Murphy I have not been solicited by anyone to write a letter for them. Also I have not written a letter recommending anyone and would not know who I would write it to. Not having applied for any additional breeds for over 13 years I am not an expert on the approval process. From what I have gathered the new system does use some common sense. I hear it has been knocked by some people but no system will be popular by all. I am sure the new system will be refined in the months ahead and it certainly is an improvement from what preceded it. Already we have seen the positive results on how it is improving the judging community as a whole. Helen Lee James Yes, I was solicited to write a letter to AKC regarding the capabilities of an individual who was a new applicant. I had known this person for at least 20 years and I had no problem recommending this applicant. My recommendations were based upon numerous positive observations of the breeds applied for both during my years as a Field Rep and as a judge of those breeds. And, yes, I did send a copy of my letter to AKC and to the individual. I have not voluntarily done this but would do so if my observations from the past strongly supported someone’s ability to contribute their knowledge and experience to our sport and needed encouragement. I have also refused to recommend an individual in whom I have had no factual positive knowledge. Dog News 23

American Kennel Club DELeGATE COORDINATTING COMMITTEE meeting Minutes ED. NOTE: In continuing our efforts to keep the general Fancy aware of the inner workings of the AKC the following is the AKC Delegate Meeting Minutes for the September 2012 Meeting. You may wish to confer with your Club’s Delegate and find out where they stand on the proposals to be both “Read” and/ or Voted upon at that meeting.
September 10, 2012 – Newark, NJ The meeting was called to order at 5:00pm by the Chair, David Hopkins. The following Committee members were present and introduced themselves: Ann Wallin, All-Breed Clubs; Judith V. Daniels, Bylaws Committee; Susan LaCroix Hamil, Canine Health; Daniel J. Smyth, Esq., Delegate Advocacy and Advancement; Cynthia A. Miller, Dog Show Rules; David H. Hopkins, Field Trial and Hunting Test Clubs; Robert LaBerge, Herding, Earthdog, and Coursing Events; Ruth Crumb, Obedience, Tracking, and Agility; and Patricia W. Laurans, Parent Clubs. Also present: Alan Kalter, AKC Chairman of the Board and AKC Board of Directors Liaison; Dennis Sprung, AKC President and CEO; and John Lyons, AKC COO.
I
t was moved (Laurans), seconded (Miller), and unanimously voted that the Minutes of the meeting of June 11, 2012 be accepted as written. Alan Kalter summarized the results of a meeting that was held on the prior day (September 9) and which lasted about three and a half hours with the Coordinating Committee and with Dennis Sprung and John Lyons. Alan said that this was the first of many meetings that would be held and that it gave those attending the opportunity to discuss issues that are of importance to all, and in a more relaxed atmosphere, and address some issues that we think we can move forward. Most importantly we came to agreement that we are all in the same situation and we all need to work together, recognizing that we all have the same interest – dogs – and we all face the same challenges and we need to work together to overcome those challenges. We have begun a process of innovation at AKC and we are going to continue and redouble those efforts and we welcome any new innovative ideas that will enhance our sport. We will communicate a lot more than ever before. Dennis Sprung spoke about Alan’s idea of holding a Breeder’s Seminar at the 2013 AKC/Eukanuba National Championship Show. While specific plans are not yet
final, preliminary plans include holding a day long Symposium on both Saturday and Sunday with six speakers each day and a roundtable discussion at the end of the day. The six speakers would repeat Saturday’s presentation on Sunday but in reverse order so as to facilitate anyone who wishes to attend. The concept is for experienced breeders to be able to share their expertise with you and to do so at a level that we will understand as opposed to a highly sophisticated scientific conference. Admission will be free and open to all. Any input is welcomed and in particular the Parent Club Committee and the Canine Health Committee are invited to submit suggestions. John Lyons expressed a note of optimism. He commented that the refreshing and constructive theme that was set in the meeting yesterday of “we are all in this together,” was evident in the Committee meetings that he attended today. David Hopkins talked about how the AKC could reach out to the legal community more effectively than it ever has in the past.

By Roz Kramer choosing the best judges
T
he greatest terrier weekend in the world should have the best terrier judges. Exhibitors and breeders deserve no less! The judges at Montgomery County by and large have been chosen by the breed clubs and as such have passed at least muster in their ability to judge terriers. The level of judging the other 3 shows should be no less. Years ago that used to be the norm. However in recent years that has not been the case. Take for instance the most recent Devon dog show-a show that the great and respected Isabelle Robson used to run. In its day it was one of the most respected dog shows in this country. Since her passing the show has dwindled almost to the point of irrelevancy. If there is one show to skip during the “full Monty”, it is Devon. How Mrs. Robson must be rolling over in her grave. For starters why can’t Hatboro and Devon communicate and share judges-or for that matter groundsHatboro has lovely grounds, with manicured grass and plenty of room for parking, set up etc. NOT the case with Devon! Other than possible contractual obligations what reason does Devon have for its grounds being an hour away from the other show sites? And heaven forbid if it should rain; call out the tow trucks immediately. But location isn’t the sole reason for Devon’s decline. This year’s show was a slap in the face to each and 30 Dog News
every exhibitor, breeder, handler and even a judge. Granted, the show initially assigned one of the top breeder judges for Soft Coated Wheaton terriers to judge that breed. Unfortunately, this judge over drew, and Devon reassigned some of her breeds in a haphazard manner. Breeders, exhibitors, handlers had all worked on their dogs for a year in preparation for this weekend. Yet the show chair took her own breed away from her-an entry of approximately 70! How can this be construed as anything other than a lack of respect for the exhibitors, much less the judge herself? It gets worse. Another terrier breed had been reassigned to a judge who apologized to her exhibitors, as she felt she “was not experienced enough to judge”; then she told the exhibitors “the show chair insisted I judge the breed”. Moving on, in one of the short legged terrier breeds all of the exhibitors PULLED their class bitches and specials after the judging in the dog classes was completed. I am not saying that we all have to agree on the exact placements or BOB or BOS---but we must be at least close. Not on opposite sides of the spectrum! How can all of this occur? Could it possibly be “tradition be damned” and self-interest takes precedence? Or is it simply getting judges who will take the assignment at the lowest rate? In the end it doesn’t matter
why. What does matter is that a once prominent show is selfdestructing. Unfortunately it’s breeders, exhibitors and the numerous foreign visitors who must bear the brunt. When confronted, the show chair’s only comment was--”well it is all about numbers”. Shouldn’t it be about respect for each individual breed? The dogs, the breeders, exhibitors and handlers who work day after day throughout the year preparing their dogs for this great event. People are there to see potential breeding stock; show off their own dogs and in many cases to teach people. Plus, there’s the many aspiring judges seeking mentoring during this weekend who are perplexed. This needn’t continue. I certainly hope Devon is managed better in the future in order to return respect back to the dogs and all those behind them. Isn’t that why we are all here? FOR THE DOGS!!!

THE DEL VALLE EXPERIENCE, THE NEW COO...
s most all of you know AKC is looking for someone to replace John Lyons as COO in the North Carolina offices. The "Triangle area" in Raleigh is one of the hottest IT places to work in the country which makes it quite difficult for AKC to compete not only on the IT level but on any high ranking salaried position since there are so many plum jobs in Raleigh and environs. Add to this the fact that AKC no longer offers contracts to employees and that certain officers including the COO can only be hired for a oneyear term and the replacing of retiring people and most serious positions becomes more and more difficult to achieve. Of course if the Board did not have to under its out-dated Constitution and By-laws approve people annually some of these hiring problems could possibly be overcome. And to add to the confusion of the situation is the thinking in some quarters that the COO is a redundant position which truly should not be continued and the situation is further compounded. I am told that the Board did not name a new COO at its last Meeting--in any event there is no announcement of one forthcoming as even if they had appointed someone negotiations for the job would still be necessary so that an immediate announcement of who the new person is probably will not be forthcoming for awhile. I don't know about you but I am just tired of certain Delegate and Delegate Committees acting as though they are concurrent Board's of AKC. Once and for all could the Delegate Advocacy and Advancement Committee not report as though they are on equal terms with the Board. They have one charge and one charge only but its Minutes read as though they are operating the firm!!!

2012 Greater Swiss Mountain Dog National Specialty
The Rocky T
he week began with the Western Regional Specialty hosted by the GSMD Club of the Rockies. Sweepstakes were judged by Terry Brown of Golden, CO. Terry selected Painted Mt’s Reconnaissance as Best Puppy and Seneca Roman Candle Reigns Vesta as Best of Opposite. His Best Veteran was Ch. Riverwalk’s Lunar Diademe and Best of Opp Veteran was awarded to Ch. Park Place Alpinez Barkley. I had the great pleasure of judging the Western Regional Specialty. I have to marvel at the tremendous improvement that has been made in this breed in the past two decades. The breeders in this breed have been doing a tremendous job and should give themselves a huge pat on the back. As a breeder myself, I have a great appreciation for a beautiful bitch and my bitches were outstanding. My Best of Breed, GCh. Painted Mtn’s Over the Legal Limit, was a stunner. My BOS was her littermate, GCh. Painted Mtn Oliver Twist of Fate. My selects were GCh Derby’s X Marks the Spot and GCh. Seneca’s Collective Soul. Awards of Merit went to GCh. Nox’s Luck of the Irish CD RE and GCh. Land’s End’s Penzance of Kismet. My only regret was that I did not have more ribbons as many deserving dogs walked away without acknowledgment.

MOUNTAIN
Round -Up From September 10th-14th Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs from across the USA gathered in Loveland, CO for the 18th annual Greater Swiss Mountain Dog National Specialty. Alison Burns, Sandi Snyder and the Greater Swiss Mountain Dog Club of the Rockies were the work force behind this event filled week.
This was Alison and Sandi’s third go around as Specialty chairs and they now have perfected every detail! The Embassy Suites in Loveland was the perfect venue for a Specialty. The rooms were spacious, the ballroom was huge and the staff was cheerful and accommodating.

That’s because being in the trenches has a way of humbling you. The theoretical gives way to Mother Nature, who is as ruthless and stealthy in getting her way as a pickpocket on the F train. All this is not to say that linebreeding won’t reveal deleterious genes: It can, and it will. In the short term, that is a blow to everyone – the owner, the breeder and not least of all the affected dog. But the alternative – outcrossing to avoid doubling up on common ancestors – can have an even more devastating, albeit delayed outcome, as the problematic gene goes undetected and seeds itself in the breed population, creating a morass for unsuspecting breeders several generations down the line. There is no shame in uncovering or producing a genetic problem in a breed – only in not dealing with it when it arises. And the truth is, any act of procreation – whether of a protozoa or a Pomeranian – leaves the door ajar to peril. We humans “breed” and produce genetic defects all the time. Genes recombine, reModern-day cessives line up, mutations Wistar rat. emerge. Breeders are just Photo: Janet , more acutely aware of the via Wikimedia hazards of embarking on Commons a new generation because we are proactively engineering these pairings, noting their outcomes, and immortalizing them in our pedigrees. Inbreeding is simply a tool. Like a hammer or a chainsaw, it can be used deftly, or with calamitous results. Geneticists like Jerold Bell, DVM (himself a Gordon Setter breeder) have shown that having islands of linebred families – all of which are linebreeding on different dogs, a key point – maintains as much genetic diversity in a given breed as constant outcrosses. Linebreeding is a system routinely employed in other domesticated species, from pigeons to pigs. (While working on a story, I once visited a crusty breeder of homing pigeons in his grottolike garage under an underpass in Queens; he had to linebreed, he told me, pointing to his most recent downy-feathered clutch, to get and keep the correct length of wing feathers to give his birds endurance and speed for those long-distance flights.) But the use of linebreeding in dogs is clouded by our insistent anthropomorphism: The more we as a culture consider dogs to be human surrogates, the more uncomfortable we are made by “incestuous” pairings that are taboo in most modern societies. (And ancient ones, too. See: Oedipus.) 46 Dog News
This taboo likely arose from pragmatic reasons as much as moral ones: Some species are just more tolerant of inbreeding than others (the same is true of individuals or lines within a given species or breed), and humans aren’t one of them. When we “double up,” disaster often befalls. Charles Darwin, the father of evolutionary biology, was steadfastly against “consanguinity” – literally, “blood relation” – because he saw the direct effects of it in his own family: He and wife Emma Wedgwood (yes, those Wedgwoods of porcelain fame) were first cousins, and Darwin’s mother, Susannah Wedgwood, was the daughter of third cousins. Of the Darwins’ 10 children, three died at early ages and three were never able to have children of their own. Inbreeding depression? No way to say for sure, but it sounds like it. “The consequences of close inbreeding carried on for too long a time are, as is generally believed, loss of size, constitutional vigor and fertility, sometimes accompanied by a tendency to malformation,” Darwin wrote in 1878. “That any evil directly follows from the closest inbreeding has been denied by many persons, but rarely by an practical breeder and never, as far as I know, by one who has largely bred animals which propagate their kind quickly.” But four decades after Darwin’s death, an American biologist named Helen Dean King challenged those strongly held beliefs about close breeding – with a world-famous strain of albino laboratory rats. A brilliant woman in a decidedly man’s world, King was a Vassar and Bryn Mawr graduate whose work at the Wistar Institute of Anatomy and Biology in Philadelphia in the early 1900s led to the development of the “Wistar rat.” Characterized by its wide head and long ears, this heavily inbred white rat soon was in great demand for laboratory research all over the world – and today about half of the world’s lab rats are believed to descend from this Philly-raised family. The rats all came from a colony that King bred, in brother to sister pairings – the closest form of inbreeding possible – over and over, for some 30 generations. Local newspapers had a field day with King’s not-somousy demeanor: “Women Afraid of Rats? Here’s One Who Raises ’Em” dished a 1922 headline on a profile of King in the Philadelphia Evening Public Ledger. But King’s research, spanning some 40 years, was as meticulous as it was groundbreaking. In her 1918 book “Studies on Inbreeding,” King wasted no time in evoking Darwin to illustrate what she called “the almost universal prejudice against inbreeding” – he is quoted on the book’s very first page. King pointed out that many wild-animal species do perfectly Continued on page 50

well in small, isolated communities with a high level of inbreeding. But in her austere lab, it looked like Darwin’s doom-mongering was on target: As King detailed how she started her inbred rat line – using four rats to create two parallel lines – she described what sounded like a classic case of inbreeding depression. “In the earlier generations the inbred rats exhibited all of the defects which are popularly supposed to appear in any closely inbred stock,” she wrote. “Many females in both series were sterile, and those that did breed usually produced only one or two litters which were generally of small size. A considerable proportion of the rats were dwarfed, or stunted in their growth, and many of them developed malformations, particularly deformed teeth.” The rats also showed “a steady decline in vitality in succeeding generations, and usually died at a relatively early age.” Had King discontinued the experiments at that point, Darwin’s opinion would have been upheld. But King observed that many of the other rats in her general colony, which were not inbred, were showing the same characteristics. Something other than genetics was to blame, she surmised, and she soon discovered what it was. “The rats were fed chiefly on bread soaked in milk and on corn; meat and vegetables were given only once a week,” she wrote in her book. A “radical” change was made to the rats’ unbalanced feeding regimen that better reflected their scavenger nature: “Milk and fresh bread were eliminated from the diet, and ‘scrap’ food, consisting of carefully sorted table refuse, was fed once each day.” After the improved nutrition, the change in the rats was startling. “The animals gained in size and in weight, sterility almost disappeared, and the average number of young in the litters was increased,” King wrote. The problem with malformed teeth also virtually vanished. And so, with a simple change of diet, King remediated the “dire effects of inbreeding,” which did not reappear even after she bred 28 more generations of brother-to-sister crosses. With an emphasis on selective inbreeding, King chose only the most vigorous and largest offspring to produce the next generation of Wistar rats. As a result, later generations of the rats were heavier than earlier ones, despite being more inbred. King theorized that “the use
50 Dog News
of only the most vigorous animals for breeding purposes has seemingly overcome any tendency that inbreeding might have to shorten the life of the individuals.” And the inbred rats of later generations grew into slightly heavier adults than the non-inbred rats King used as controls.
B
ecause of her interest in sex determination, King also made some breeding decisions based on gender ratios in the rat litters. In her A line – what she called her “male line” – she only bred from litters that contained an excess of males; conversely, in her B line, or “female line,” she discarded any litters that did not have a large number of females. Her results showed that sex ratio of offspring was genetically influenced to some degree, though other factors also came into play – including season of the year and age of the mother. Turning away from her rarified white rodents, King also studied the effects of domestication by breeding 25 generations of wild gray Norway rats; her six foundation breeding pairs were trapped in the Philadelphia streets. In addition to noting that later generations grew more quickly and much larger than their wild forbearers, King theorized that domestication contributed to an increase in genetic mutations: When the breeding was controlled by humans and not the vagaries of nature, older animals were permitted to breed, at an age where their genome was arguably less stable and more susceptible to mutations. Like many of her colleagues in the study of genetics in the 1920s and ’30s, King embraced the eugenics movement – the belief that some people are genetically superior to others, and that breeding for “super humans” is possible and even desirable. We all know where this unfortunate line of thinking led us in 1930s and ’40s Germany. However, “a rat is not a pig is a dog is a boy,” to paraphrase that quote from PETA founder Ingrid Newkirk, and one need not advocate genetic “purity” in humans to appreciate the solid science King left behind for animal breeders. The misconceptions of her generation aside, King’s work with Rattus norvegicus has dramatic implications for those of us tooling around in Canis familiaris gene pools: It offers the promise that we can create healthy, fertile families of closely related dogs with selective inbreeding – emphasis on the word “selective.” It demonstrates the importance of environment – the “nurture” part of the nature-versus-nurture equation – in particular that of a biologically appropriate diet. It explains patterns that breeders note in the dogs – such as the fact that some bitches tend to “throw” a preponderance of either males or females, in defiance of the law of averages. And perhaps most important, it reminds that those in the trenches – those doing the breedings, meticulously logging the results, and selecting the most sound, vigorous and fertile stock to go forward – are those best suited to pass judgment on the vice and virtues of any breeding system.

Staffordshire Bull Terriers
T
By Ann Lettis
his is the fourth year that I have chaired the Supported Entry shows at Hatboro on Fri, Devon on Sat., a Specialty on Sun. at Montgomery for the Staffordshire Bull Terrier Club of American and it always an honor. Rather then be redundant I’ll simply refer to these shows by day. Fridays Sweeps for puppy and veterans was judged by Mrs. Barbara Pessina, who unfortunately had to leave for home that day as I enjoyed talking dog with her and have no doubt she will be an excellent judge for our breed. Tom Parrotti took over for the classes and his calm, confident demeanor put everyone at ease. Sat. the sweeps judge was Pamela Wilson and it was rewarding to see and hear how interested she is in obtaining knowledge about my breed. Kathi Brown

judged the classes and although she is a lady who definitely knows what she wants, her soft voice and gentle manner makes it a pleasure to show to her. Sweeps on Sun. was judged by Bob Eisele, a working judge who did a good job for his very first time in the terrier ring. Bob and his wife Dawn had never been to Montgomery and they seemed to totally enjoy the entire experience. Rodney Herner was our judge for the classes. Rodney has stewarded so often for my breed MCKC weekend that it was truly an honor to have him judge Staffords knowing he has always shown an interest and affection for them. In my opinion he did an excellent job and was extremely consistent with his choices. Regressing a little I’d like to say I have a deep respect for MCKC and felt that although my breed is small in numbers there should be a way to highlight it in a significant way at this show. I could think of no better way then to introduce for the very first time at any show, a Stafford Parade of Title Holders at the most prestigious terrier show in the world. It was a fun time and I was so happy to be able to not only give recognition to the conformation champions but those who have their performance titles and a few with titles before and after their name. The past four years Stafford bitches have gone BOB three out of four times not only at Montgom-
ery, but each day of this famous weekend. This year the stunning bitch GCH Tartans Miss Bindi-Sue owned by her breeder Karen Fava kept the Girl Power going. Bindi had produced a beautiful litter just twelve weeks prior to these shows and had not seen her good friend and handler Kim Rudzik in seventeen months until the Thurs. Hatboro show. One couldn’t help but see how glad Bindi and Kim were to be together again, they definitely did the happy dance on the way to BOB all four days. I have been attending this weekend twenty-one years missing only one year due to having a litter at home. However, since Tracy Dineley seemed to be a fixture at these shows, I decided to ask her how long she has been attending. Tracy told me she has been coming down from Canada for 26 years missing only three years! This year she breeder/owner/handled two of her Staffords, Clandara Invision LucyinTheSky, who went WB at Devon for a major, and CH Clandara’s Axel Foley who went BBVSW Fri., and Sun. then went on to prove that the older you get the better you get as he was awarded BOS. Axel is a Canadian GCH and has more titles then there is space to write, I was thrilled that Tracy brought him once again. Tracy’s husband Steve handled another Canadian Stafford owned by Sylvia Barkey, Rolona’s Revolutionary Road, who became an AKC CH at the Thurs. show by going BOW and BOS from the classes and received an AOM on Sun. Now back in MA after living a few years in Alaska was Amanda Shea Ashmore who handled Redbull’s Red Eyed Hell, a pretty pied bitch for Matthew Ashmore and took WB on Thurs. Joann Adams is the breeder of the handsome GCH MajDragonquest Dirty Harry, who received a Select on Thurs. and Sun. additionally being awarded BOS on Fri. and Sat. Joann is also the proud owner/handler of Bonnair’s & Maj Wicked Twister Sister the BOSSW on Fri. Speaking of Bonnair this is the prefix for Jenn Irwin and she breeder/ owner/handled CH Bonnair’s Busta Wicked Rhyme, who received Select each day of the weekend, no doubt soon to be a GCH, then went on to BSW on Fri and BOSSW on Sun. Jenn is also the owner/handler for Fridays’ WD Nazan’s I’m In Like Flynn and BSW on Sat. Debra Roseman is a seasoned competitor in performance events but relatively new to the conformation ring. However there is definitely a new team in town. Debra showed her Elivid’s Shaken Not Stirred, RN, CN a/k/a Bonnie, to two major wins, one on Fri. where she went BOW and the other on Sun. going WB. Do have to say that all of us are extremely proud of Bonnie’s accomplishments and the time Debra devotes to all areas of the Fancy. Another successful breeder/owner/handler is Dianna Caulk. Dianna handled her DJ’s Midnight Caviar to BOW
at both the Sat. and Sun. shows, taking majors to achieve his Championship and a/k/a Oliver also went BSW on Sun. Dianna is also the breeder/owner of CH DJ’s A Taste of Caviar, who I have shown since he was a puppy and a/k/a Tigger went Select on both Fri. and Sat. to become a GCH, Sun. he received an AOM. On a personal note this was very special to me as he is the great grand get down from line as were five other Staffords who were entered and did very well. The prefix may change through the years but nevertheless it is always rewarding to see the generations from one’s line. I’m thankful that although I am no longer breeding those who I interacted with years ago have tried their best to continue what I had once set out to achieve. I can never end an article about MCKC weekend without expressing my appreciation to those who without their kindness, help and friendly attitude I would never be able to nor would want to chair these special shows. So this is my shout out to Bob Black and Kathy Ferris at Hatboro, additionally Carol Carlson and Bruce Schwartz at Montgomery, the four of you ROCK.

law courses. The question is how can the AKC reach out in some fashion to the law schools and others in the legal community, such as by developing a position paper that could be made available to students with respect to due process. Other possibilities could be in developing model laws and in work that could be done to aid the AKC Humane Fund in its assistance grants to domestic violence women’s shelters, etc. Perhaps a task force could be created consisting of members from the Board, Staff, and the Delegate body to focus on what makes sense in this area. Alan Kalter commented that we should also investigate areas such as estate planning with respect to dogs. Ruth Crumb suggested that the Coordinating Committee start its meeting five minutes after the end of the Delegate Caucus or not later than 5:00pm. The Committee was unanimous in its approval. The Delegate Committee Chairs gave the following reports: All-Breed Clubs (Wallin) (i) Heard a report from the subcommittee on ways to develop protocols for Clubs and Show Chairs to follow in the event a show is canceled. Included are items such as insurance, contracts, superintendents, hotels, vendors, etc. Referred to onepage form that is on the AKC website in the event of a cancellation of an AKC-licensed event; (ii) Talked about developing more successful programs and initiatives that have proven successful to various Clubs and input to the on the on-line All-Breed Club Library on the AKC website; (iii) Talked about the Opt-In program and ongoing discussions with John Lyons and Connie Pearcy to update and fine tune the program. Will also be sending out another invitation notice to the eLists. Of over 3,000 eligible Clubs only 950 have Opted In; (iv) Discussed the proposed Amendment concerning the territorial issue; (v) welcomed John Lyons as the Staff Liaison to the Committee; (vi) Discussed the updated Board decision regarding grooming space; (vii) Discussed the procedure for award of Reserve BIS; (viii) Discussed the Juniors Master class; (ix) Talked about the new Family Dog program and that the CGC suffix will be part of that program; (x) Reviewed the prior day’s meeting of the Coordinating Committee with the Chairman of the Board and the CEO and COO; and (xi) Introduced candidates for the election to the All-Breed Committee. Bylaws (Daniels) (i) Introduced and welcomed Gina DiNardo as the Staff Liaison; (ii) Candidates for election to the Committee were introduced; (iii) Heard
54 Dog News
a briefing of the prior day’s Coordinating Committee meeting with Alan Kalter and the Senior Staff; (iv) Discussed the proposed Amendment regarding Delegate Eligibility. Many questions ensued especially the issue of whether Delegate Judges are eligible to charge a fee. The proposal was sent back to Subcommittee for additional work; (v) Reported on the Board’s response to the issue of grooming space; (vi) Introduced the question of whether Agility Clubs should become member clubs – there are 84 clubs currently eligible to enter the process. The issue of the impact on Obedience Clubs should be considered; (vii) Heard an update of the Board’s consideration of a Bylaws amendment concerning past employees’ eligibility for the Board; and (viii) Judi Daniels announced she had stepped down as Chair of the Committee. Canine Health (Hamil) (i) Over 78,000 CHIC certificates have been issued; (ii) Shila Nordone (CHF) presented new initiatives on performance health issues and on bloat. Over 90 percent of those attending the meeting had experience with bloat; (iii) Discussed interest from Parent Clubs on reproductive issues. A questionnaire to Clubs is forthcoming; (iv) Continued discussion of global health issues; (v) Discussed several communications received by John Lyons’ office concerning the spread of diseases at dog shows which he questioned whether by Judges going from dog to dog to examine bites might be spreading these diseases. Dr. Richard Ford, a specialist in vaccines at NC State, stated that this examination practice, in effect for over 100 years, has not been a problem. Rather it could be a result of the emergence of so many cluster shows where the same dogs are in the same quarters, using the same grass and exercise areas that could be the cause of the spread of diseases. An article for Perspectives or the Gazette will be written. (vi) Dr. Ford also indicated that there is no “new” Parvo. Also discussed were kennel cough and canine influenza. The Committee voted to recommend no change in the procedure of Judges’ examination of dogs; (vii) The Subcommittee met with the Parent Club Subcommittee on the Breeder of Merit program and any recommendations will be brought before the Committee; and (viii) The Veterinary Outreach program has been revived and AKC Staff assignments have been made. Delegate Advocacy and Advancement (Smyth) (i) Discussed the new Delegate orientation program which is now being handled by this Committee.

Jim Crowley conducting the organizational part of the program and Charlie Garvin will represent the Board; (ii) Discussed the new Delegate’s mentoring program. It is very well organized and has many Delegate volunteers to serve as mentors; (iii) Had a lengthy discussion of the Subcommittee report concerning the three day Delegate meeting proposal. This will be presented to the Board this month with a Delegate vote in either March or September; (iv) the Subcommittee on Delegate Relationships reported that they received an amazing 42% return of their survey. One item worth noting is the importance of the Delegate, or some Club volunteer, to have access to a computer; and (v) Discussed how the Committee can encourage the participation of Club members in donating to the PAC. Dog Show Rules (Miller) (i) Discussed Chapter 7, Section 1, of Dog Show Rules concerning Judges’ Eligibility and Judging conflict. Much work still needs to be done so after a lengthy discussion it was decided to table the topic until the December meeting; (ii) Discussed the Special Attraction (but not to be counted as the one now required) for Juniors (Pre-Novice and Sub-Novice for 5-9 year olds). The paper will be forwarded to the AKC Board for their consideration; (iii) Discussed the paid grooming space and procedure for submission of the layout form with the Show application; (iv) Discussed procedure for reinstatement of dogs that have been disqualified and will work to update the form now in use for application for reinstatement; (v) Discussed the procedure for selection of Reserve BIS. Will work with Staff and the Board to clarify the Rule; (vi) Heard a Subcommittee report on the cancellation of an event; and (vii) Discussed that exhibitor addresses will be shown in Show catalogs. Field Trial and Hunting Tests (Hopkins) (i) Welcomed the return of Doug Ljungren as Staff Liaison; (ii) No elections to the Committee will be held; however, one individual, Judy Tighe, volunteered to assume the two-year term; (iii) statistics indicate entries as follows: Pointing Breeds - up 2 percent; Retrievers - up 6 percent; Spaniels - up 7 percent; and Hounds are flat; (iv) Received a report concerning the possibility that at the request of Clubs the AKC could send out to new owners information regarding that particular club and events in that area. Details are being worked out; (v) Focused on the Triathlon as a new Event. While the Committee was positive about the Event, it was less so if the Event becomes a Titled event, particularly since so many Clubs already have Versatility awards that are very
difficult to attain; (vi) Passed a motion regarding a second study by Prof. Lauenroth, who completed his original study sponsored by the AKC and CHF concerning the Mean Seeds Prevalence. One remaining question is how long the seeds last. For example, if new seeds going into the ground could be stopped, would you be out of the woods in five or ten years, or a hundred years. The Committee will work with Prof. Lauenroth toward pursuing an Acorn grant; (vii) Held a very lengthy discussion on the proposal to hold three Delegate meetings per year instead of the current four. A straw vote by the Committee was a unanimous negative. Herding, Earthdog, and Coursing Events (LaBerge) (i) Started with welcoming back Doug Ljungren to the meeting. (ii) Statistics provided by Doug indicated that Herding is up 15 percent, Lure Coursing is down 10 percent but the Coursing Ability Test (CAT) up 259 percent. Predictions are that if not by next year then at least the following year the CAT entries will exceed the Coursing entries. Earthdog is up 3 percent; (ii) Discussed budget goals for 2014 for Performance Events. Had a lengthy discussion on ways the Delegate body could assist in achieving this goal. Doug outlined three ways this could be done: [1] by extending the existing event, e.g., Earthdog with the endurance dog title, [2] partnering with other organizations for title recognition, e.g., Flyball with TDI, and [3] developing programs like CAT; (iii) Bragged about Committee member Dominic Carota yesterday winning the AKC’s Lure Coursing Championship. (iv) Discussed the meeting of the Coordinating Committee and especially the Family Dog program and the events that can be done that will help subsidize Performance Events that will at least bring them to a breakeven status; and (v) Had a lengthy discussion on the scheduled September 2013 Forum covering this Committee’s events. Obedience, Tracking, and Agility (Crumb) (i) January through July 2012 (rounded) statistics show that Entries have increased 73,800, +12 percent, with Events increasing 270, +7 percent.

gestions of programs that could be added to the Family Dog program; (viii) Had preliminary discussions on the Triathlon Title; (ix) discussed staying in Optional Titling classes indefinitely; and (x) Discussed the recommended increase in the number of Agility Trials that can be held each year. Parent Clubs (Laurans) (i) Reported that the Parent Club Conference eList now has over 750 members with almost 14,000 posts. Thought it would be beneficial to extend this to FSS breeds and to officers of Parent Clubs in various stages of the pipeline. A letter of invitation will be composed and sent to the AKC so that distribution can be made to those who are eligible to join the eList; (ii) Discussed the Parent Clubs of Excellence project which will be presented to the Board at their September meeting. If this project does come to fruition it was felt that it project could be a template for Clubs other than Parent Clubs; (iii) Talked about the 3-point Major Reserve; (iv) Happy to have John Lyons back participating in the meeting; (iv) Had an update on the suffix title CGC; (v) Heard an update on grooming space; (vi) Had an update on the moratorium on jump heights and a Club that had its application in simultaneously with the decision on the moratorium; (vii) Heard an update on the need for more Parent Clubs to get involved with their information for The Complete Dog Book with write-ups as well as pictures; (viii) Discussed the Judges Education Institutes and the tests that are given at them; (ix) Introduced the candidates for the Parent Club Committee; (x) Had a presentation by John Lyons on Meet the Breeds; fifty some Clubs have not yet signed up for Javits; (xi) Discussion about Continuing Judges Education seminars when Judging and hope that will be revisited concerning Judging on a weekend as well as presenting a Seminar; (xii) Tom Powers presented information on the End of Year reports. Information on what exists and the process for use by those who do not subscribe to the service will be sent to the Parent Club eList and the Parent Club Conference eList; and (xiii) Discussed the Breeders Conference to be held in 2013. Forum The Forum tomorrow morning will be on the use of Social Media. It should be of interest to all Delegates particularly in the area of ways social media can assist Clubs to grow. A possible topic for next June is the development of estate trusts, bequests, and pet trusts. It is felt that if a generic form could be developed that could be posted on the AKC website and that would be relevant to the entire country, such a Forum topic would be worthwhile. The September 2013 Forum will be a presentation by the Herding, Earthdog, and Coursing Committee. The suggestion was made by Judi Daniels that Candidates for the AKC Board appear before the December Legislative Caucus. After discussion it was the consensus that any legislative questions should be presented to the Candidates at the Forum where the most Delegates will be present. 62 Dog News
Delegate Committee Meeting Times Because of the new Staff Liaison assignments, a new Meeting Schedule was developed by Dave Hopkins, and approved by the Committee. Basically it consists of two independent rotation systems: six Committees will be coordinated over a block of four Meetings and three Committees will have their own independent rotation. These three Committees are all served by one (Doug Ljungren) Staff Liaison and he will be able to divide his time between two Committees at each Meeting and meet full time with the third Committee. It was moved (Daniels), seconded (Laurans), and unanimously voted on to approve the new Delegates Committees – Meetings Rotation schedule, dated August 24, 2012, a copy of which is attached to these Minutes. Cycle I will be in effect for the December 2012 Meeting, as follows: 9:00am to 11:30am • All-Breed Clubs • Bylaws • Canine Health • Field Trials 1:00pm to 3:30pm • Delegate Advocacy and Advancement • Dog Show Rules • Herding, Earthdog, and Coursing • Obedience, Tracking, and Agility • Parent Clubs 5:00pm to 6:30pm (OR START FIVE MINUTES AFTER THE CLOSE OF THE DELEGATE CAUCUS, whichever occurs first • Coordinating Committee Charge The Dog Show Rules Committee voted to recommend a change to their charge. The proposed change is as follows: “Review and make recommendations on proposed amendments to the Rules Applying to Dog Shows and review and make recommendations to Rules Applying to Registration”. After considerable discussion, it was moved (Miller), seconded (Daniels), and unanimously voted to move the proposal forward for due diligence. September 2013 Forum Bob LaBerge inquired as to the need for Committee approval for any required Staff time and/or expenditures for preparation for the Forum. Assuming there would not be a huge amount of Staff time required for the effort, the request for approval was not needed. It was moved (Hamil), seconded (Wallin), and approved to adjourn the meeting was 6:20pm. Respectfully submitted, Ruth Crumb, Secretary

DINATES THE NEW DELEGATE ORIENTATION AND MENTORING. That's it in a nutshell-they should concentrate on changing Delegate eligibility requirements and open the Delegate Body to all or perhaps even think of dis-banning the present Delegate Body in the altogether and come up with new ideas as to how to run the Delegate Body in the 21st Century.

s for Del Valle it's been three or four years since I've been there and for sure it is one of the more difficult shows to work for anyone with a string of varied breeds. The Almeda County Fairgrounds are spread out the length of California itself, or so it seems, and the cleverest of people use wheels of every sort imaginable. If you are lucky and have only one breed or better still one group such as terrier toy or non-sporting the chore of multi-breeds is not unbearable. But getting to and fro to certain rings say from the "Orchard" to the "Rose Garden" more than once a day is a herculean task similar to a major days workout regime. Nonetheless the entries make for some of the largest shows in California--certainly Northern California with the Sunday show having close to 2,600 entered. Saturday is Specialties while Thursday and Friday which is Skyline and Sunday and Monday Del Valle of Livermore. Certainly the rings themselves are spacious and located in both outdoor and indoor venues. Weather was East Coast changeable with Thursday in the high 90's, Friday more comfortable in the crisp 80's, Saturday and Sunday low 70's if not high 60's and rain for the Monday morning classes, which did necessitate moving some classes indoors. Saw a bunch of impressive dogs throughout the days I was there although did not spend too much time at the Specialities. Fascinating class Shiba with a temperament which made you want to steal her from the owner/breeder--and within reason I did try--not that hard though. Followed Chows and Frenchies which seemed very competitive, also Beagle classes looked strong. Terriers basically left me rather cold in that I saw nothing new which caught my eye although the Group winning Lakie which I saw Montgomery weekend is a real comer I would think--some nice Whippets and Rhodesians although in all too many instances the RR's were too big for my taste particularly the class dogs. Bests as I recall was a new Bulldog to me on Monday. The standard poodle bitch who is in full coat and has matured so nicely the Sunday night. While the Black Afghan on Friday and the Peke on Thursday were those winners. No one dog dominated Best as you can see and the groups were pretty well divided as well. The Hound Group was extremely strong as was surprisingly two or three Non-sporting groups. One thing we could do without however is this flying off to other parts of the country for one day and returning the next. It is getting out of control and must be redirected for sure. Take the Lead had a very successful dinner party on Saturday evening which was well attended as well. All in all Betty-Anne, Len and Florence with Sandra all put on a top end show. Perhaps I would change Group proceedings a bit but the reality is that if it ain't broke why try and fix it! And believe me these shows are way, way above the ordinary which is one of the reasons they draw so nicely.

Sunday was a fun hunt test for beagles that have never hunted before. They got their nose to the ground and had a fun time. Obedience and Rally was held with another strong entry. In obedience the only class with qualifying scores was Novice B and the winner was Someday’s Darling Darcy BN RN. Rally saw more dogs qualifying in those classes. Junior showmanship was judged by Mrs. Jaimie Mulvey. The winner was Emily Goldstein, who does a wonderful job with any beagle she puts her hands on. Emily is currently the #1 beagle, #1 hound and #4 overall junior handler in the country. Monday was a picture perfect day for Ms. Terri Giannetti to judge sweepstakes. She entered the ring with a big smile on her face that lasted all day. Judge Giannetti had command of the ring and was very efficient and pleasant to all exhibitors. The veterans took to the ring first. Winning the 15” division was Ch. Springfield N Skline’s Big Shot and Best of Opposite was Ch. MACH PACH Shaws On Tap At Top Shelf MX MXJ MJP MXP NF PAX. Winning the 13” division was GCH. Roidan Lanbur Motor City and Best Of Opposite was Ch. Brushyrun Felty’s Keepsake. Next Ms. Giannetti had the task of judging the puppy sweepstakes. It is always fun to watch these puppies strut their stuff . The Best in Sweeps for the 15” division was Bartag Carmen and Best of Opposite was Lanbur Life is Good At Argyle. Sweeps winners for the 13” division was Merry Music Feelin’ The Love and Best of Opposite was Lochnaw Black Tie Affair. The overall Best In Sweepstakes winner was Bartag Carmen. Tuesday’s weather could not have been any different than Mondays. The rain started Monday night and continued throughout
the day. Mrs. Barbara C. SchererKidwell had the undaunting task of judging in the rain and then the mud when the ring got saturated. Mrs. Scherer-Kidwell had her rain gear on and her beagle wellies to help her get through the catalog entry of 159 beagles. She had a smile on her face that everyone could see despite the rain. Veterans again went first and her choice for 15” was Ch. Springfield N Sklines Big Shot. This dog has been a Best of Breed winner at Aldie before. Moving on to the younger dogs judge Scherer-Kidwell chose Onre One Don’t Mess With Texas as her winners dog from the Bred by Exhibitor class and Milroc Quest To Be Best for reserve winners dog also from the Bred by Exhibitor class. As the ring got muddier Mrs. SchererKidwell asked to move the ring to higher ground. Caretaker Douglas Fitzmaurice did a great job setting up a new ring in the big turnout pasture. The rain kept coming down but at least the ground wasn’t muddy. Winners bitch was awarded to Eardle Barb Dwyer from the open bitch class and reserve went to Riordan’s Crystal Dixie Chick from the 12 -18 class. Best of Variety drew a large number of beautiful beagles. Winning Best of Variety was GCH. Bridgehill’s Mr. Mason’s Misbehavin’ and Best of Opposite was Ch. Tastins Lookin For Trouble. Select dog was the veteran Ch. Sprinfield N Skline’s Big Shot and Select bitch was GCH. K-Run Lanbur The Truth All Around.
A
fter judging was over I asked judge SchererKidwell to give me her first impression on judging. Mrs. Scherer-Kidwell said ”Tuesday morning when I got to the show site, I decided to accept the rain and do what I’d waited so long for, judge the 125th anniversary of the National Beagle Club show! Looking around the ring and seeing so many longtime successful breeders and many new faces just made me so very proud to be part of the beagle family and so honored to have such a beautiful
entry to judge.” Tuesday night was the BRFOA Auction benefiting beagle rescue. A total of $7,000 was raised. Wednesday’s judging was still held in the upper ring and without the rain. Mrs. Scherer-Kidwell had a catalog entry of 80 13” beagles to judge. Her Best Veteran was GCH. Lanbur Carson City. Taking winners dog was Lanbur Party Like A Rock Star coming from the Bred By Exhibitor class and reserve winners dog was Van-Mar Man O’War from the 6-9 puppy class. Winners bitch was Carmela de Suarias, a repeat winner from last year from the open bitch class and Reserve winners bitch went to Merry Music Feelin’ The Love from the 6-9 puppy class. Best of Variety was another group of beautiful beagles. The winner was GCH. Bougain’e Naughty-N-Lovely Alvin and Best of Opposite Sex was Ch. Skyline’s Dream Big. Select dog was Ch. Encore’s Rerun of Roirdan and Select bitch was GCH. SaraNan’s Sweet Sensation. For Best of Breed the winner was GCH. Bridgehill’s Mr. Mason’s Misbehavin’ and Best of Opposite Sex was Ch. Tashtins Lookin For Trouble, both 15”s. Following Best of Breed was the parade of Top Twenty dogs. Although not a true Top Twenty event it allowed everyone to see these beautiful representatives of this great breed. Champagne was served and goodbyes were said for some. The event ended with an awards banquet. Being this writer’s first time at Aldie was truly a great experience. Driving up to Institute Farms you get a feeling of history. Mandy Bobbitt took her pack of hounds for a hunt one afternoon and to watch those beagles go into the woods was breathtaking. Yes the weather could have been better, and god knows the stink bugs could have stayed away, but I will pack my car with rain gear and anti-stink bug spray and head down south again in 5 years!

The Regional Specialty was followed by a very competitive Weight Pull judged by Kelly Nevin. The winner was the reigning champ of the past 4 years, Bit-A-Swissy’s Bridger-Teton ACE WPDX owned and trained by Teresa Petterson DVM. After the Weight Pull everyone relaxed at the Welcome Party hosted at the Embassy Suites. The hotel sponsored a nightly happy hour complete with free cocktails and munchies. This was a very enjoyable perk!
T
uesday morning the Draft test was held at Island Grove in Greeley, CO. The judges were Todd Snyder and Karen Conant. Todd had these comments about the Draft test- “We had nine entries. One Open Team, six in Open and two in Novice. Four Open dogs passed. The Open Team should have passed, but the handler made a strategic error that left his Team no room to avoid an obstacle. Everyone watching was stunned. It was still a beautiful display of Team Drafting. The single largest predictor of success? Being able to waive the Basic Control portion of the test. Having an AKC CD title requires a level of obedience and teamwork that easily translates to Drafting. On the other side, the Narrows was the portion of the test that dealt the blow to most of the dogs that did not pass. Most dogs will do better if they are not forced to be perfectly aligned with the entrance and if they only have to pause long enough to let the handler get in front. When the handler gets stressed out, so do the dogs!” Kelly Nevin judged another competitive Weight Pull on Tuesday with Bridger once again defending his Championship title. In addition to Weight pulling with Bridger Teresa also led two Pack Hikes. She had this to share about those hikes. “The Greater Swiss Mountain Dog Club of America awards three different working pack dog titles including Novice Working Pack Dog, Working Pack Dog and Working Pack Dog Excellent. The purpose is to encourage
70 Dog News
Greater Swiss Mountain Dog (Swissy) owners to use their dog for one of the many jobs they were intended to do as working draft dogs. These titles are awarded to Swissy and nonswissy dogs greater than 18 months of age that have earned appropriate “legs” towards each title. To earn a leg, the dog must carry 20 % of its body weight on a hike that is 10 miles long, or 2 legs for 2 consecutive back to back hikes that are 8 miles long. A primitive hike that includes an overnight stay and at least 5 miles a day during 2 consecutive days also counts towards 2 legs. Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs are ideal pack dogs, and on extended trips will be able to carry 7-10 days worth of their food or supplies for their owner. “Hard to imagine that finding a trail for the Colorado, 2012 Greater Swiss Mountain Dog National Specialty pack hike would be a challenge. However, this year’s wildfire season has devastated a great deal of the forest land in the front range of Colorado. Luckily, the North Fork Trail of the Big Thompson River was left untouched and allowed for a scenic, yet shaded trail. After quickly dropping down to a
level water plane, the trail allowed for a nice stroll along the creek, but still gave glimpses of the surrounding foothills leading into Estes National Park. “Wednesday’s hike included a small but intimate group that included 4 humans, 4 Swissys, Morgen, Blumen, Bridger, Louie the lover and Finis a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon. The entire day the group was shrouded in a thick mist that kept the Swissys cool and the humans busting down the trail to stay warm and fairly dry. Although, the dense fog obscured most of the views, the dogs supplied ample entertainment during our hike. Louie started an enduring courtship with Morgen. Meanwhile, wildlife must have been scarce on the North Fork Trail because Finis only retrieved a small dead marmot, down from his usual 2-3 deer or elk legs. “The sunshine returned on day 2 and we were joined by the brave Texans and their Swissy Addison. They must have been gluttons for punishment or naive about the effects of altitude. Whichever the case, they were great troopers to come from sea level, hike at 7,800 ft and subsequently climb another Continued on page 78

s the press release put it, ‘Manchester Museum goes barking mad!’ with the launch of a major exhibition which looks at pedigree dog breeding in Britain. Housed in a magnificent neo-Gothic building which is part of Manchester University complex, the exhibition has been developed between The Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine, The Arts, Humanities and Research Council and the Manchester Museum, with more than a little help from the Kennel Club, which made its records available to the researcher and has loaned a number of exhibits. The culmination of the exhibition will be the publication of an academic book looking at dog breeding in Victorian and Edwardian Britain. It is much more than an exhibition of art but explores with the help of historical pieces, early documentation, fine paintings, beautiful sculpture, delicate porcelain and ephemera the comparative recent history of dogs, the desire for perfection and dog showing in the United Kingdom through the stories of six different breeds, each in their way

highlight something unique about British history, values and culture and each are intertwined with the social and political fabric and changes of the last century and a half. The six chosen breeds are: The Bloodhound for its traditional role in hunting and tracking, most notably attempting to track down the infamous Jack the Ripper; The Borzoi for its association with royalty, luxury, wealth and privilege; the Pekingese for its secret past in China to rapidly becoming the favourite of upper-class women in Britain, such as Dame Barbara Cartland; the Irish Wolfhound as a breed ‘manufactured’ by an Englishman and its subsequent rejection by the Irish Republicans, only to re-emerge as an icon of Irish identity; the Collie as a versatile, workmanlike dog that came to represent rural Britain and the Bulldog the embodiment of tenacity, determination and patriotism. Appropriate for the area, visitors to the exhibition are greeted with footage from Manchester Film Archive of judging at Didsbury dog show in the 1930s, now part of greater Manchester. This is the first time for many years this short film has been shown and will be of interest to Wirehaired Fox Terrier
enthusiasts in particular. Moving back in time to 1855, the first exhibit one sees is R. Marshall’s famous painting, An Early Canine Meeting at Jemmy Shaw’s Queen’s Head Tavern. This is the pivotal piece from which the exhibition develops. What follows and which leads you into the breed displays, is a collage of images from the late 19th century that focus on, amongst other things, commerce and showmanship within the fancy with Charles Cruft and American entrepreneur, James Spratt and the desire for success with some beautiful prize cards. One of the main attractions for visitors are the stuffed named dogs of each breed, an instant reminder of how breeders in some breeds have striven to retain original type, the Bloodhound for example, whilst in others they have changed them dramatically,the Pekingese for example. These are complimented by early 20th century skulls of each of the breeds. The artefacts, literature and ephemera are as diverse as the breeds themselves. Literature by Edwin Brough, 19th century animalier bronzes, early Chinese porcelain and Fabergé from the Royal collection, Captain Graham’s notebook on breeding Irish Wolfhounds, paintings by John Emms and Eugène Joseph Verboeckhoven, political, patriotic and satirical posters, an iron bit to prevent the dog biting the sheep, beautiful enamel boxes, early English porcelain, silver trophies and much, much more. Breed: The British and Their Dogs runs until 14th April 2013.

thousand feet. Louie apparently thought he had signed up for Swissy Singles.com and continued his romance with Morgen. However, Bridger decided to referee this situation by giving subtle sharks and pack bumps to remove Lou’s nose from the shade of Morgen’s tail. Spending many days a week climbing the Rocky Mountains, captain Bridger and first mate Finis tried their best to show some hospitality by allowing rest breaks along the way. On the other hand, if we stood still longer than 5 minutes, sharp barks from these commanders ushered us along at a smart march.

Both were judged by Christine Mann of Boulder, CO. Chris selected Painted Mtn’s Reconnaissance as Best Puppy in Sweeps and Ch. Snowy Mtn Eye of the Storm v Magnum as Best of Opp. Her Best Veteran was Ch. Riverwalk’s Lunar Diademe and Best of Opp was Ch. Blossom Hill’s Sturdy Aspen.

ednesday evening the Top 20 was judged by Robert Shreve, Clint Livingston and Robin Ney. From the twelve entrants the winner announced on Friday at the annual banquet was GCh Painted Mtn’s Oliver Twist of Fate bred by Lisa Simonsen and owned by Randy and Katie Markley. Oliver is handled by Arthur Favors. The People’s Choice was GCh Calypso Alex Naughty by Nature. She was bred by Terry Brown and Holly Nagler and is owned by Christa, Bev and Terry Brown and Amy Wilson. Thursday morning began with Obedience and Rally judged by Ms Patricia Maynard of Longmont, CO. High in Trial from Novice B was Sunhaven’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirl owned by Christine Knorr and Barbara Martinez and bred by Barbara. Linus also had the highest score in Rally and was also awarded the Bill Faure Memorial trophy as the highest scoring dog in Obedience with a working title. Thursday afternoon Anna Wallace of Luther, OK judged the Futurity. Best Futurity Puppy was awarded to Wildest Dream S.O. Close to the Heart and his littermate Wildest Dream S.O. Had Enough was Best of Opposite Puppy. Best Junior and Best in Futurity was Seneca Roman Candle Reign Vesta. Thursday night Dr. Dave Roberts gave a very informative seminar on splenic torsion, c-section protocol and urinary
incontinence. Dr. Roberts has been treating GSMD in the Denver metro area for many years. He was able to give first hand information on treating these conditions that are problematic in this breed.
F
riday was the big event with Dr. Wanda Spediacci officiating. All that Dr. Spediacci requested from the GSMDCA was a good steward and she had a great one. Ron Van Horn graciously offered his assistance for the entire week and ran the rings smoothly with everything coming together seamlessly. We really appreciated his help! Dr. Spediacci selected Painted Mtn’s Reconnaissance owned and bred by Lisa Simonsen and Bonnie Huett as her Winners Dog from the Bred By class. Reserve Winners Dog went to the 6-9 month puppy Wildest’s Dream S.O. Close to the Heart owned by Bob and Dawn Fralick and Tina Bailey and bred by Tina. He was also Best Puppy. Winners bitch, Best of Winners and Best Bred By was Cedar Cove’s Alarming Muse owned and bred by Carolynn Wamsley. RWB was Calypso’s Scrabble Phoenix bred by Tiffany and James Welch and Terry Brown. She is owned by Lauren Thompson and Terry and Bev Brown. Best Veteran Dog was Ch. Blossom Hill’s Sturdy Aspen bred by Karen Brown and owned
by Linda Kaminski. Best Veteran Bitch was Ch. Cordillera’s Lil Bombardier RN bred by Karen Becker and owned by Alison Burns Woods. Dr. Spediacci selected GCh. Derby’s Toast with Gusto as her Best of Breed. He was bred by Ken and Robin Toth and Kristin Kleeman. Best of Opposite was Blossom Hill’s Magnificent Magnolia bred by Karen Brown and owned by Karen and Amy Ruppert. Her selects were GCh. Painted Mtn’s Oliver Twist of Fate and GCh. Calypso Alex’s Naughty by Nature who were coincidently the Top 20 winner and People’s Choice winner. AOM’s were GCh Nox’s George Bailey’s Irish Crème owned by Nancy Kechner, Julie Comer and Colleen Robson and bred by Colleen and GCh Rivendell’s Twilight owned and bred by Randy, Robin, Shelby and Summer Ney. The day ended with the Awards Banquet and Silent Auction which benefits the GSMDCA Health Fund and the Greater Swiss Mountain Dog Rescue Foundation. A bittersweet moment at the banquet was awarding Blanche “Robbie” Roberts the “Margaret Poole Lifetime Achievement” award. Robbie passed away last summer at the age of 93. She was a long time breeder under the SeaVaRidge prefix and a great mentor to many in the breed. Melissa Jarriel was honored with the “Friend of the Swissy” as the club member who contributed the most in 2011. The “Ambassador of the Breed” was CT CH Lone Star Prairie Whisper CDX RE DD VGSX TT owned and trained by Chris Lero and bred by Lisa Mayo. Whisper is the first GSMD to earn a Champion Tracking title. The AKC Outstanding Sportsmanship was awarded to Jan Collins. The OFA Champion of Health was Ch Matterhorn WhisperingPalms Pleiades CD, RA, NAP, NJP, NFP, JHD, WPDX, DD, WWD, TT, VGS. Fury was bred by Laurie Carmody and is owned and trained by Kelly Nevin.

Meet The Breeds 2012
T
Offthe
he fourth annual Meet the Breeds was held this past weekend at the Jacob Javits Center on the West Side of Manhattan. Sunshine cascaded through the floor to ceiling windows of the center, as over 30,000 people passed through its doors to catch a glimpse or get their hands on the 160 breeds of dogs and 46 breeds of cats that occupied booth space for the two-day event. The Westminster Kennel Club, Long Island Kennel Club and Ramapo Kennel Club were also on hand, and their representatives enlightened attendees about the wonderful world of dog shows, and more than 80 vendors were present, hawking everything from insurance to treats to collars and leashes to clothing to pet CPR to watercolor paintings to all things AKC. Presented by main sponsor PetPartners, AKC’s partner in pet insurance, the event is one if not the most important and creative ideas that the powers that be at the American Kennel Club have come up with to increase its awareness amongst the general public and to educate people on responsible dog ownership. Despite the glorious weather, there was a significant drop in attendance from the previous year, from a reported 40,000 to the 30,000 to 32,000 range, a 20% to 25% decline. Not sure what the reason for that is, as the event was certainly well organized and in New York, at least, well publicized, with representatives handing out postcards and magnets to commuters at Grand Central Station days before. Perhaps moving the date of the event from the colder month of November, when people partake in more indoor activities to an earlier date in October may have something to do with it. (The Javits Center didn’t have an open date in November this year). The location could also be a possible reason, as there’s not much parking in the vicinity and the nearest public transportation is a healthy jaunt away, and there is a significant lack of quality dining options in the immediate area. Of course, there are myriad events competing for the shrinking disposable dollar, too. Perhaps repeat customers cannot be counted on, either, as past attendees may have settled on the proper breed for their family pet and may no longer feel the need to attend. Whatever the reason, Meet the Breeds is undeniably effective in exposing generations of dog lovers and would-be dog lovers to the various breeds and opportunities available to prospective dog owners to enjoy canine companionship, from conformation shows to flyball to agility and more. Police K9 demonstrations further enlighten spectators about the unique human-canine bond and the tremendous capabilities of the dog. Teaming up with TICA, The International Cat Association, is also another stroke of genius, as prospective pet owners are allowed the opportunity to decide once and for all whether or not they are ‘cat people’ or ‘dog people’ and to determine if they could perhaps share their household with both. It seemed like an awful lot of spectators were both cat and dog owners, at least by judging the number of free bags of swag they filled with everything from food coupons to free samples of

treats and toys. As for the booths themselves, some consisted of nothing more than volunteer breeders and club members behind a bare bones folding table sharing knowledge of their breeds and representatives of the breeds themselves with an inquisitive public while others went all out with decorations and wardrobes depicting their breeds’ heritage. There were several sightings of Royal family members, albeit in cardboard cutout form. The Queen’s likeness adorned the Windsor Castle themed Pembroke Welsh Corgi booth and a life-sized image of Prince Andrew and Kate Middleton urged spectators to visit the Norfolk Terrier booth. Particularly impressive were the lengths that the Saluki club went to with full costume dress and headgear and an elaborate set reminiscent of an Egyptian theatre piece. It certainly was eye-catching, informative and inviting, as children sat beside the faux flame of a fire pit and stroked members of the ancient breed that were curled up on pillows. All club members who volunteered their time deserve recognition for their efforts and patience. Many went above and beyond the call of duty, as it’s an exhausting, demanding exercise and speaks volumes of the character, love and knowledge that these breeders and handlers are willing to share with a constant onslaught of admirers and questioners. Some of the dogs looked downright exhausted just several hours into the first day of the event — and understandably so. It’s an event unlike any they’ve been prepared for, show circuits and benched shows notwithstanding. It really is a whole different animal, but its benefits far outweigh whatever quibbles critics may make about the event. The end result of the event is that spectators come away with a better understanding of what makes pet ownership so rewarding and the dedication of responsible breeders of purebred dogs and cats. The New York City version of the ‘Meet the Breeds’ is a little different than those held elsewhere. As Anna Stromberg Franzoso, who manned the Afghan Hound booth, noted,“Everyone wants to know if these dogs would be good apartment dogs.” Indeed, it was a question heard at almost every table. Not every breed of dog was represented and of those scheduled to appear not every one showed up. Among the missing were the he Dogue de Bordeaux, Dandie Dinmont Terrier and Basenji, whose booths were all empty on Saturday afternoon, which was a disappointment to a member of my party who
was interested in seeing the ‘barkless’ Basenji up close and speaking to an expert to find out (surprise, surprise) whether or not it would make a ‘good apartment dog’. However, her disappointment quickly dissipated when she spotted the Cernico dell’Etna, which she thinks will be the dog in her future. Currently in the Miscellaneous Class, the Cernico requires minimal grooming, is friendly and affectionate with people and extremely intelligent. Though the breed has been present in Sicily for over 2,500 years, the AKC only approved its standard this past April and according to the representative on hand, it should be eligible for conformation within two years. The presence and presentation of the Cernico perfectly exemplified the purpose and importance of ‘Meet the Breeds’.
I
n addition to the opportunities to get a handson experience of what it’s like to live with these different breeds, there were exceptional opportunities to become educated about the history and purpose of the breeds. It was wonderful to see the much maligned bully breeds receiving such a warm welcome. The Bull Terrier, Staffordshire Terrier and Bulldog booths were packed to capacity, as was the beautifully adorned Bullmastiff booth. Other large breeds that seemed to be a hit amongst spectators were the Neapolitan Mastiff, the Leonberger and the Cane Corso, one of which made for the most adorable ‘lap dogs’ on hand. The dog’s handler said,“He walked from the car to the booth and that was it. He took a nap in his crate and he’s been sitting here ever since.” It was an eye-opening portrayal of the breed at rest, and a much different image of the breed than is often portrayed. Among the smaller breeds receiving many inquiries, the Boykin Spaniel, Chihuahua, Yorkshire Terrier, and Cavalier booths were all crowded as was the uniquely themed Russian Toy booth. Overall the scene provided further evidence that ‘Meet the Breeds’ is an unequivocal success in educating the public and increasing AKC’s awareness as the champion of the dog. Kudos to all for making the vision a reality. Dog News 83

ring to watch the judging of the frisky puppies, some of whom were showing for their very first time in wet grass. Puppy Sweepstakes were judged on Thursday by Douglas R. Holloway, Jr., starting with a strong class of 12 to 18 Months Dogs, from which the judge picked Garcini Rangels Concerto with Tes, bred by G.& I. Rangel & L. Garcini & J. Paquette and owned by E. Singer, and breeders, Garcini and Paquette, as his Best in Sweepstakes winner. Best of Opposite Sex to Best in Sweepstakes was Sanherpinc Cicciolina un Motive de Scandalo, bred and owned by S. Pinto. Later Thursday afternoon Breeder Judge, Rosalind Kramer, took center stage, as she carefully and thoughtfully evaluated the Regular Classes of Wire Fox Terriers. Her Winners Dog, from the 12 to 18 Month Dogs, was Steele Gareth Bale with Farmington, bred by T. Steele, J. Punzalan & B. Patenaude and owned by C. Dabbs. Reserve went to the Bred-By Dog, Random Roughrider, bred and owned by B. McFadden & P. Gyori. We all know how unpredictable Wire youngsters can be in the ring, reacting to every sound, every leaf blowing by and every new thing they see, including the huge baskets of fall mums at the end of the down and back, and the bitch puppies didn’t disappoint. One of the youngest was barely six months and one day old, but on the day of the Open Bitches class was the most competitive. Japanese-bred, Fox Creek JP I Wish, bred and owned by H. Tsuyuki, was the judge’s pick as Winners Bitch and Best of Winners, with Reserve going to W. & K. Voss’ American-Bred Bitch, Foxhaus She’s a Knockout. The number of foreign entries stood out, with nearly half of the Best of Breed entries coming from overseas. The stunning #1 Terrier, GCH Afterall Painting the Sky, took home the honors of Best of Breed, going on later in the day to win the Terrier Group under Kerry Lee from Australia and then on to win Best in Show under Neville Hodgkins, also from Australia. Sky is owned by V. Malzoni, T. Steele, M. & S. Olund, & D. Ryan and was bred by A. Pertuit & B. Seaton. Best of Opposite Sex was GCH Gordon’s Bite of the Apple, bred and owned by S. & J. Hanson, with Select Bitch and Award of Merit going to CH Fox Creek JP Isn’t She Lovely, bred by H. Tsuyuki and owned by L. Kegel. Select Dog was CH Diamant v.d. Schoenen Bergen, bred by F.W. von Schoeneberg and owned by B. McFadden.

Friday at Hatboro II was a perfect day, sunny and warm. After serving Hospitality for the American Fox Terrier Club, my friends and I settled down to watch the Wires. Doug Carlson very capably judged Puppy Sweepstakes, selecting the 12 to 18 Month Dog, Warwick After Hours, bred and owned by M. & C. Nemeth, as his Best in Sweepstakes. Best of Opposite Sex in Sweepstakes went to Sanherpinc Cicciolina un Motive de Scandalo, bred and owned by S. Pinto. Judging the AFTC Specialty later that afternoon was Desmond Murphy, who made his picks quickly and confidently. Both Winners Dog and Reserve Winners Dog came from the 12 to 18 Month class. WD and AOM winner was Warwick After Hours, bred and owned by M. & C. Nemeth, and Reserve Winners Dog was Steele Gareth Bale with Farmington, bred by T. Steele, J. Punzalan & B. Patenaude and owned by C. Dabbs. The 6 to 9 Month Bitch puppies happily discovered each other, looking as if they loved being in the ring together, but it was the Open Bitches where Murphy found his Winners Bitch and Best of Winners, Beinneins Verona, bred and owned by D. Heck. Reserve Winners Bitch, W. & K. Voss’ American-Bred Bitch, Foxhaus She’s a Knockout, repeated her win from Thursday. Veteran Dog, CH Outfoxed At The Captain’s Game, bred and owned by S. & J Thatcher, enjoyed enthusiastic applause from all. Murphy’s Best of Breed was also a repeat from Thursday, GCH Afterall Painting the Sky, owned by V. Malzoni, T. Steele, M.& S. Olund, & D. Ryan. Best of Opposite Sex was GCH Gordon’s Bite of the Apple, bred and owned by S. & J. Hanson, with Select Bitch and Award of Merit going to CH Fox Creek JP Isn’t She Lovely, bred by H.

Everyone knows you have to arrive at the Montgomery County Kennel Club Show early Sunday morning. At 7:30 the Memorial Service takes place at the flag pole, chairs have to be set up at the Fox Terrier ring, and you have to line up to buy catalogs, as they will certainly be sold out by 10:30! Wire judging was to begin at 1:00, so I had some time to watch other breeds. I was thankful to have set my chair under the tent, as the weather turned very cold and rainy. Sunday’s Wire Breeder Judge at the AFTC Specialty Show was Dr. Al Pertuit. His pick for Winners Dog was Steele Top Hat of Ironhill, bred and owned by T. Steele, A. Wyle & M. Roma.

ntries were up again from last year and the fi rst 3 days featured perfect weather. Sunday was cold and damp, but, fortunately, not nearly as bad in either respect as had been predicted. The q uality of the entry was outstanding as one might hope. Hatboro stuck with their popular “new” layout from last year, while Devon returned to its former ring arrangement, mak ing the best of its hilly terrain.

white tents with each ring having both an outdoor arena and an even larger tented facility and monumental floral displays of long stemmed roses in every imaginable color. The attention to detail and the extravagant comfort provided for dogs, exhibitors, judges and spectators alike was truly a lesson in the “art” of planning a dog show. Bogota is the Capital and the largest city in Colombia and one of the biggest in Latin America. In 2006 it had a reported population of 8 million and is the principal political center of the country. The city is 8661 feet above sea level (1 shot of Tequila equals three at this altitude) and has become known as the “Athens of South America”. It is the most beautiful blending of the very traditional with beautifully simple, almost Bauhaus, contemporary high rise buildings that fit perfectly into the landscape. This metropolis is a wonderful example of “city planning” and the atmosphere is at once cosmopolitan yet old world with an edge. I was met at the airport by the Chief Ring Steward and tour guide extraordinaire Daniel Arquello whom I had the great pleasure of getting to know on my last trip to Colombia. We waited for my fellow judge from Dublin, Ireland Michael Leonard with whom I had communicated on Facebook. Michael is without question one of the most upbeat and positive gents I have ever met
and a top notch Dog Man on top of that. We checked into the Hotel Grand House and our rooms were duplex suites with every imaginable bell and whistle and even Direct TV in English. The following morning we met our other two judges, Pamela Bruce and Steve Dainard, both from Canada. Pam’s enthusiasm is infectious and is a died in the wool dog aficionado who showed dogs with our beloved “Bubbles” Carol Hollands and finished many of the famous Grandeur Dogs including Trist before she was ever even shown in the States. The day time finds Ms. Bruce working with the Special Victims Unit in Toronto and for me she will always be “Olivia”. Steve Dainard is a second generation Dog Man and has been in the sport of dogs since he was 13 years old. He successfully owned and handled many Top Sporting Dogs including the all time top winning Springer in Canada. Mr. Dainard is a great sport as he is such fun to pick on and he and Messr. Leonard taught me how to use my iPad.
F
riday was a day of seeing the sights and ultimately meeting up with one of my all time favorite people and Show Chairman Denys Janssen. Denys and club President Luis Alberto Martin, who can only be described as Box Office handsome and charming to the max, met us for lunch at a stylish and au currant bistro in the Santa Barbara district that served delicious Colombian food with an Italian twist. We met after our visit to the Gold Museum and the old town of Bogota. The traffic in Bogota is so intense that they have in an effort to cut down gridlock during rush hour by limiting the cars on the road between the hours of 3:30 and 7 PM to license plates ending with an even number on one day and odd on the other and by luck of the draw we ended up staying way past our limit and spending some time at a four story very high end shopping center when we were allowed to get back on the road. Saturday morning we drove to the show grounds and were scrutinized with the utmost security upon our entry to the show site. We were met at the venue by Luis Alberto looking like the Cultural Attache to Great Britain. The divine Denys, Continued on page 111

always so welcoming, plied us with the richest of Colombian coffee, explained the rules and introduced us to the exhibitors and attendees. Our individual National Anthems were played and it was time to judge dogs. We all had wonderful dogs to judge and the highlight for me was the fabulous puppy group. The enchanting Beagle puppy was irresistible but I loved the magnificent orange and white Pointer puppy bitch as well as the Bullmastiff with a head to die for. The ultimate Best in Show winner was the Pug Int. Ch. Didiel Andes Mucho con Demasiadoid from Chile chosen by Olivia or as she is know to the masses, Ms. Pamela Bruce. The following day the handsome Boxer Int Ch. Axel de Torrealbaid chosen BIS by Michael Leonard, who also provided the great pictures for this article. The Old English Sheepdog was such a standout for me, and is handled and beautifully conditioned by Stefano Trindade with his Million Dollar Smile.(Stephano’s). I was also attracted to the black masked fawn Frenchie from Russia shown by David Alexander. I adjudicated the veteran’s group with its 20 some entries and awarded Best Veteran in Show to an 11 year-old Welsh Terrier bitch owned by Ivan Sandoval. She looked fit as a fiddle, and was sired by the great “Billy the Kid,” who was owned by Lil and Bruce Schwartz. Sunday evening we had dinner at the very entertaining Andres de Carne de Res in Chia. Pamela and Steven left for home and Michael and I were picked up at noon on Monday for a trip to Denys Janssen’s, which included a delicious lunch and an afternoon of relaxation and great conversation with Magda de Kraus and her husband Manfred. Magda’s presence filled the entire lobby of our hotel and I immediately was reminded of the wonderful time I had spent with her on my last visit to Bogota.
D
enys’ house lived up to all my expectation. It is a white stucco house of beautiful proportion set perfectly on a hillside with a thatched roof and a lovely terrace that overlooks the valley that was tented for the occasion. We were greeted by Willis, a very amiable yellow lab that Denys refers to as the runt. There is no question as to the occupant of this house as it is every bit as full of charm and comfortable as is Denys. Off on the hillside there were large exercise areas with lovely pointer puppies and several handsome yellow labs. Down on the hillside was a very well maintained clay tennis court that obviously keeps Denys in such wonderful shape. We were joined by Daniel (Chief Steward) and his beautiful wife Carolina and Miguel Umana and Gretta his charming
wife. Miguel was the substitute judge for the weekend and is Editor of the Gazetta Canina. Luis Alberto, who had spent the morning catching up on chores at his Dairy Farm, was holding court with many members of the host club including Cristine Vargas the club treasurer. I had a lovely time visiting with Michael Leonard and enjoying getting to know someone who will be a longtime friend. The guests left and Denys, Willis and I sat by the fire and caught up since our last visit including discussing the Pointer National that she had recently judged, surrounded by wonderful paintings, beautiful artifacts and a very high shelf of many golf and tennis trophies all awarded to Denys. My car picked me up at 8:30 to take me to the airport for my red eye flight back to the States. This was a wonderful trip that has so many fond memories and reminds me how lucky I am to have a hobby that takes me all over the world to meet so many amazing people and to evaluate so many beautiful dogs.

Have you been solicited to write a letter to AKC suggesting that a judge be given more breeds than presently permitted by AKC--if not solicited have you voluntarily done this-How do you determine which breeds to recommend to AKC? Do you send the person a copy of your letter and to whom is your letter addressed? I raise this question due to the confusion many people have about the implementation of this new approval system.
BOB AND JANE FORSYTH No we have not been solicited by anyone. We have only suggested judges that we have known for some time, observed their work and have discussed the breeds that they are approved for along with others that they show interest in. We do not suggest breeds, only recommend that these people are worthy of rapid advancement in our opinion. CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Preserving and Protecting Our Breeds ew York, NY – In describing his 1889 trip to Idaho, Theodore Roosevelt noted “a certain half melancholy feeling as I gazed on these bison, themselves part of the last remnant of a doomed and nearly vanished race. Few, indeed, are the men who now have, or evermore shall have, the chance of seeing the mightiest of American beasts.” Roosevelt was prescient in his observation. By 1905, the number of bison in the United States had dropped from some 60,000,000 to a mere 1,000 in less than two centuries. Seeing clearly that bison were on the verge of extinction, Roosevelt – by then the 26th President of the United States - decided to do something about preserving the bison for future generations. He and William Hornaday founded the American Bison Society at the Bronx Zoo to assure the bison’s survival. That effort began with 15 bison sent by train to Oklahoma’s Wichita Mountains Wildlife Preserve to help restore the depleted bison population. Today, with some 500,000 bison in the United States, bison are no longer threatened by extinction. American Kennel Club breeders mirror Roosevelt’s preservationist instincts. Today, there are 187 recognized breeds and varieties actively being protected and preserved by AKC breeders. In addition, there are approximately two to three additional breeds being brought into the protective fold of the AKC each year. There have been instances where, like Roosevelt’s bison, a breed was on the verge of extinction. Fortunately, AKC breeders took action to change the breed’s destiny and bring it back from the brink. The original Lhasa Apso AKC foundation stock was based on only 21 dogs. The Chinese Shar-Pei Club was founded to establish the breed in the U.S. and save the breed from complete extinction. Today, most breeds are at the stage where their current status needs protection for the future. AKC Breeders, AKC Parent Clubs, and the American Kennel Club have worked together to pursue solutions in the best interest of the dogs. The opening of the AKC Stud Book to Native Stock Basenjis is a good example. The original request from the Basenji Club noted the following:
N
Letters ToThe Editor
LATE ANSWER TO THIS WEEK’S QUESTION OF THE WEEK,
“Our Club and our breed are in a unique position. We have access to Basenjis living in their native land, as they have for centuries, still working with hunters using only spears and nets and their extraordinary dogs. That these dogs continue to thrive, living in a part of the world suffering the devastating effects of poverty and war speaks to their vigor and health as well as their great character. These dogs represent a living history of our ancient breed. We cannot afford to lose them.” And they didn’t. In 1990, the Stud Book was opened to include 14 Native Stock Basenjis. The Basenji standard was changed at the same time, allowing brindle color. Without the diligence, commitment, and unwavering pursuit on behalf of the dogs by dedicated AKC breeders, the number of dog breeds the world enjoys today would be in severe decline. And the world would be diminished by that loss. Fortunately, AKC breeders will never let that happen. Their goal is to protect and preserve the type, temperament, and individual characteristics of each breed. The most visible and engaging representation of the determination of our AKC breeders to ensure the future of their breeds is the AKC Meet the Breeds ® event (now in its fourth year) that took place last weekend in New York. Some 30,000 dog-lovers came to the Javits Center to interact with 160 dog breeds, including some of the rare breeds people have only read about. The commitment of our breeders and responsible owners includes their desire to educate the public about their dogs, and about each breed’s history and unique attributes – something true preservationists innately understand. The preservation efforts started by Roosevelt 100 years ago saved the bison from extinction. Yet of the 500,000 now in existence, only a few thousand are the pure genetic descendants of the millions that once roamed North America. The work of the AKC breeder/preservationists, however, is focused on the pure genetic descendants of the beginning of each breed. By doing so they not only preserve the history of each breed, they help preserve the role of dogs with man throughout the history of the world. AKC breeders know exactly what Roosevelt meant when he said, “Far and away, the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.” As always, I appreciate your comments. Please contact me at atk@akc.org. Sincerely, Alan Kalter Chairman BELL ARTICLE RINGS TRUE enjoyed reading the article by George Bell, “Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder,” detailing a function-based rationale for judging sighthounds in the show ring. Without pinning a system of evaluation to the original intended function of a breed, it’s easy to go far astray and end up with a subjective mish-mash of extremes that effectively eliminate all traces of that breed’s original purpose. An apt analogy is to think of dog breeds as tools in a carpenter’s tool chest. Obviously, a hammer, for instance, with a shiny head and embossed-leather handle, would be more appealing to the eye than a hammer with a painted-black head and unadorned wooden handle. If the head of the fancy hammer also had that head raked forward 20 degrees or so, the overall appearance of the hammer might be even more stunning from a stylistic standpoint, but a total disaster when it came to driving nails into wood. Dog breeds are exactly as Mr. Bell indicated: tools to accomplish specific tasks. First and foremost, any tool needs to be judged on its likelihood of accomplishing the task for which it was designed. Only after functionality is assured should aesthetics be allowed to enter the equation. Charles Alexander Bellingham, WA
