“
There has been lots happening with events in our dog world both in Queensland and interstate with a great opportunity for members to enjoy activities with their dogs.
As mentioned before, we have had great feedback about the new RNA venue for the conformation dog shows and sport events. It is a venue that compares very well with the Melbourne and Sydney venues and will no doubt improve even more come next year’s event.
I was lucky enough to attend both the Spring Fair weekend in Sydney and the Melbourne Royal and Whippet Specialty Shows in Victoria. The Whippet Association of Victoria has been the fortunate beneficiary of a sizeable bequest in the will of a late member. This club has since consciously funded a number of improvements that benefit the wider Victorian dog community and is to be commended for these initiatives.
Where the dog world has been an important part of your life, a bequest in your will to a club or dog body is an option you may like to consider.
TAKE THE LEAD
As members would know, I do like to run different concepts “up the flagpole” for feedback from members and other directors. We are a member organisation, so we do try to be all about members and their dogs. Sometimes our members fall on hard times and support can be very limited. I had one long standing dog world person who has experienced a wave of personal difficulties say that the dog world just does not care.
I know that in the case of fire and floods and other
extreme events our dog bodies and members do rise to the occasion, with financial and in-kind support being provided. I think most of our dog bodies in Australia have a budgetary allocation for such emergency events and that is certainly the case with Dogs Queensland.
I wonder though whether we could go a bit further and provide some support for members in grave difficulty. A first port of call may be for members suffering from a life- threatening or terminal illness. It’s all about dog people helping their own, and that has been a very long tradition in our dog world.
In the American context, the AKC has established “Take the Lead” with a separate endowment fund. This started in the 1980s with the Aids crisis but has evolved since then to assist members in dire straits. Their home page setting out their history and background is reproduced after my message. And by the way, I love their logo with the whippet!
I think it is important for us, as members, to have a dialogue about this, and if supported, to then look at possible models, whether at a State or National level. We will be discussing this at Board level so do provide feedback to rob@dogsqueensland.org. au and/ or provide feedback to a director. In a way it is surprising that such a trust or charity has not previously been progressed at a State or National level.
NEW RENTAL LEGISLATION
As we know, our dogs are wonderful companions and members of our families. I think it is great that the Queensland tenancy legislation has been amended with effect from 1 October 2022 to overcome a blanket ban by a property owner on a person renting from keeping a pet.
Now the person can apply to the property owner for approval to keep a pet. The property owner can only refuse the application on stated reasonable grounds. An example would be in a unit where the keeping of the pet would be a breach of the body corporate by-laws, whether it was the owner or tenant. Mind you, some of these by- laws have been successfully challenged in the courts.
If the request is not responded to within 14 days, then consent is stated to be automatic. It is all about being a responsible dog owner and it is
great that people renting will benefit from fairer processes. I enjoyed being interviewed by ABC radio on this subject this morning.
FESTIVE FIESTA
I certainly enjoyed the recent weekend of Advance Pacific International Shows. A big thank you to the office and to Waterloo Bay Kennel Club and the Judges and the myriad of volunteers who made it all happen. Having different show formats adds interest and challenges in my view.
So if you enjoyed that weekend make sure you pencil the Christmas/ New Year Festive Fiesta in your diaries. It will be even bigger and better this year. Look out for the schedule in Paw Prints.
Have a great October!
Ulla Greenwood, President Dogs Queensland
September 2022
The AIDS crisis opened our eyes to the many ruthless illnesses that were challenging us to our very core. Though we came together week in and week out to compete at shows and trials, to participate in club activities, to share knowledge and common interests, we had inadequate resources in any one place to take care of those in our community who so clearly needed our help.
Take the Lead was founded in 1993 as a not-for-profit foundation under Section 501 (c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code dedicated to provide direct services, support and care for all qualified participants in the sport of dogs who suffer from the devastating realities of life-threatening or terminal illnesses.
THE EVOLUTION OF TAKE THE LEAD
So here’s what you need to know about take the lead…
L We’ve been here to serve as a lifeline for the Fancy since 1993.
L We originally began simply; to lend the level of support to those impacted by the aids epidemic.
L The Pure Breed Dog Fancy, our grassroots community, are our main contributors and make all of this happen. Dog people helping our own. This has never changed!
Our Evolution
$ We soon realized we could do much more and expanded our mission to include assisting those with all life-threatening or terminal illnesses. These include (but are not limited to) cancer, heart disease, kidney disease, and more.
$ An endowment fund was established to ensure funds would always still be available to the Fancy far into the future.
$ In 2016, we once again reviewed and renewed our mission and added our ability to now provide temporary emergency assistance to those affected by disasters such as fires, floods, earthquakes and the like. This is accomplished through a separate and expedited application. (Both applications are available on our website).

JAPANESE SPITZ
The Japanese Spitz ... are very family-friendly and have a playful spirit and are always eager to please. They enjoy both indoors and outdoors and being wherever you are as they thrive on human companionship.
HISTORY
Shanspitz Japanese Spitz
The Japanese make claim to the origins of the Japanese Spitz, however there is evidence of white Spitz-type dogs in other countries dating back hundreds of years. There were many medium sized Spitz breeds in Europe, especially Germany and Russia, and these were predominantly white.
During the late 1800s this type of dog began making its way to America. During the early 1900s, white Spitz appeared in Japan, possibly due to the movements of armed forces and their families and pets in and out of Japan, China and Russia from America and Canada.
Today’s Japanese Spitz was developed in Japan between 1920 and 1950. The breed arrived relatively quickly in Australia. The first exports from Japan arrived in Sweden in 1973, and then the first imports into England arrived from Sweden in 1977. Breed fanciers in Australia were fortunate enough to import progeny of those early arrivals in England and as a result the breed arrived on our shores in 1979. The first litter in Australia was born in 1981.
TEMPERAMENT AND SUITABILITY
It’s not hard to see why one would love the Japanese Spitz. Apart from their striking appearance with that pure white coat and black eyes and nose, they are alert, lively, bold, eager to please, intelligent family dogs. The Japanese Spitz are prized for their wonderful temperaments.
They are very family-friendly and are known to be playful and gentle with children and make wonderful versatile pets. They enjoy both indoors and outdoors and being wherever you are as they thrive on human companionship. When you are home, they want to be with you, so they are not a breed you can just leave in the backyard as they want to be a part of the family.
They should have socialisation and training as they are known for their courage and protective nature. They will bark, surprisingly loud at strangers who enter their territory, though they will calm down when they are reassured by their owners.
Japanese Spitz are quite intelligent and respond
well to training. They don’t need a large backyard as they are an active dog that will follow you everywhere around the house. However, they do love to go for walks and beach swims. They tend to be wary of complete strangers that rush up to them without formal introduction. They prefer a gentle approach, after which you have a friend for life.
They are characterised by their great courage, affection, and devotion to their family. They are small enough to enjoy being a lap dog, but let it be said, at their discretion, for despite these qualities they are nevertheless of an independent nature with a will of their own. They can be an only dog or in a household with other dogs and pets.
They are playful and friendly from an early age and are highly adaptable and thrive in almost any living situation, from small apartments to vast acreage. These happy dogs walk with a pep in their step, equally excited for playtime and cuddly naps.
APPEARANCE
Japanese spitz dogs are playful, smart, and comedic companions who are steadfastly loyal and almost always smiling.
The Japanese Spitz is a classic medium-sized spitz covered with a thick, pristine snow-white stand-off coat, which consists of a long straight outer coat held by a profuse and soft under coat contrasted by strikingly dark expressive almond eyes lined in black, black lips and nose.
The head has an alert appearance with triangular shaped ears standing erect, pointed muzzle and a well plumed tail carried over their back. The overall quality of the body should be firm and strong, full of flexibility.
The height and weight of the Japanese Spitz is: Males 34-37 cm (13.5 – 14.5 ins) and approximately 12kgs. Females 30-34 cm (12 – 13.5 ins) and approximately 10kgs.
Despite its impressive coat, the Japanese Spitz is surprisingly easy to maintain due to the coats soft texture mud and dirt will fall off easily or can be brushed out. They require a brush once a week and a bath approximately every 4 weeks as they don’t have a doggy smell.
They shed their undercoat approximately twice a year and a trip to the groomers a couple of times during this period is recommended to get the hair out. With regular grooming you will be rewarded with a beautiful looking dog with a sparkling white coat.
HEALTH
The Japanese Spitz is a very healthy breed that is not prone to much illness. Some bloodlines may suffer from Patella Luxation (slipping knee caps). However conscious breeders strive to eliminate this from their breeding programs.
Some dogs suffer from tear staining however this is usually due to wrong eye shape (being too round) or blocked tear ducts. They have an average life span of up to 15 years old. To ensure you get a healthy Japanese Spitz make sure you purchase from an ANKC Registered Breeder that exhibits (shows) their dogs regularly.
AGILITY, OBEDIENCE, DOG SPORTS AND CONFORMATION SHOWING
The Japanese Spitz is quite an intelligent breed, and they respond well to training. They thrive on being with their owners and enjoy Agility, Obedience and Conformation Showing. I have done all these sports with my dogs over the years, and found that they only need minimal training to pick up the required skills. There are many Japanese Spitz overseas doing, Agility, Fly Ball and Lure Coursing. They enjoy playing catch with a ball or frisbee in the backyard with their families.
IDEAL OWNER/S FOR THIS BREED
The Japanese Spitz is a family dog seeming to thrive on the different attention and affections from each family member. They will choose one family member as their leader and bond more closely with that person.
A young puppy (3-12months) could be a “handful” for children under the age of 5 without adult supervision. However, they are also suitable for singles or couples. If you are looking for a breed of dog to be a loyal companion that loves to be with you then the Japanese Spitz is for you.
COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER PETS
The Japanese Spitz should be familiarised with other household pets at an early age; it will then live happily with them. They can have a dominant nature and when introduced to a household with other breeds they may very quickly become “The Boss” – even over much larger breeds.
Kim Haddon – All Breeds Judge
– David Margan
For Kim Haddon, 2023 will be a very special year as she will celebrate 50 years of continuous membership of Dogs Queensland.
And it all started with horses.
“Well, my early life was spent around Arab horses that my Mother, Jill Flack, bred, but ever since I was very young, my big love was dogs. They were my best friends, and the lifelong affair began at age four with a Standard Smooth Dachshund.”
That process was accelerated when she had a few serious horse-riding accidents, especially one at age nine that was the decider;
“I was thrown and ended up with a fractured skull and I remember spending a long time lying on the couch with an enormous hematoma on my head having to keep quiet and I lost my confidence riding.”
For the family it all really started with her Mother deciding they needed a guard dog on their new farm in Toowoomba and she researched and bought a German Shepherd bitch, later selecting and mating her to a Champion sire from New Zealand.
“Through her breeding of horses, my Mother taught me the importance of form, function, type, balance, soundness and movement, so we always bought well-bred pure breed dogs.”
In 1975, I bred my first purebred litter of German Shepherds under my Mother’s Prefix “Millavale” and from this litter came one of Australia’s Top German Shepherds at the time.
Her Mum clearly knew what she was doing as Kim took that 7-month-old pup from her first litter to the 1975 Royal Ekka Show at age 15, competing against 46 German Shepherds from Interstate and 36 imported German Shepherd dogs from Germany, England and New Zealand and walked
away with Best Puppy in Show and she was hooked!
Kim bred and trialled German Shepherds for 15 years and Rottweilers for 11 years.
At age 18 she saw footage of a Bernese Mountain Dog on television and thought it was the most beautiful dog she had ever seen and so a new canine passion was born, she had to have one. To this day her first of the breed, ‘Heidi’ is her favourite;
“They have such a wonderful temperament for a large breed, they are so affectionate and sweet natured and think of their humans as god.”
So deep was her bond with this breed that along with Lyn Brand, they founded the breed in Australia and Kim has bred and showed them for 38 years, importing and exporting to many countries throughout the world.
Kim attended the World’s first Bernese Mountain Dog Health Symposium held in Langenthal, Switzerland in 2000, discussing breeding and health issues affecting the Bernese Mountain Dog Worldwide.
“I pride myself on the strict standards of soundness to which I breed, and I was named as breeding #1 and #2 Top Soundness Producing BMD Sires in Australasia, in a book written by English Author and statistician, Malcolm Willis (UK).”
As a breed the Bernese Mountain dog is not a common breed at all, so it surprised Kim when daughter Katrin announced she wanted a breed of her own because the Bernese “were so common”;
“That’s all Katrin had grown up with and so all she knew. She then went to the other extreme and wanted a Pomeranian. I couldn’t find one suitable locally, so we ended up importing one from Sweden but then … Katrins passion followed her grandmother into horses and she went overseas and did dressage events in Germany, … so there I was with an Imported Pom, fell in love with him and the rest is history.”
To improve the breed here in Australia Kim has imported Pomeranians from eight different countries for her breeding program. She was obviously very good at it, as she bred the Aust Supreme Ch /Am Gr Ch Zeigen Aurora Australis, who quickly became #4 Pomeranian in America in 2014 and subsequently was invited to compete at Westminster in 2015.

And if that wasn’t enough, Kim has also owned, bred and shown Jack Russell Terriers, thanks to her son Scott’s interest in the breed. All up, to this point in her career, Kim and her Zeigen Kennels, have bred well over 100 Champions in her chosen breeds.
But wait there’s more!
At 20, Kim decided to again follow in her Mum’s
footsteps and take a crack at judging.
She sought advice from an old Darling Downs legend, Charlie Head, pausing he looked at her and intoned in a voice weathered by age and its values; “Go away and come back in another two years!”
“It was a time when young women weren’t encouraged in this field, and it did put me off somewhat.” said Kim
Over a decade, in fact, before Kim would try again and it took 17 years of hard slog and the interruptions of helping her two children through high school. In 2016, she finally became an AllBreeds Judge;
“It was always my ambition and when it happened it was like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders and I was absolutely exhilarated.”
The judging has taken her all over the world from Finland to China and she has only just returned
from Canada where she judged two major events, the Canadian Pomeranian National Specialty and the four-day Alberta Summer Classic.
“Canadians are very much like us, they’re very friendly, relaxed, love a laugh but I think they have a greater respect for sportsmanship in their canine world than we currently do.”
Its’ probably Kim’s greatest observation about our present;
“I do miss the old days, the respect that was shown to our judges, our President, executives and our fellow competitors. Our world is no longer a welcoming and helpful environment as it was. Once you could freely discuss each other’s dogs,
good and bad traits with fellow breeders and it was a process of sharing and a learning tool but now people take it all so personally and seem to resent anything that may be seen as critical. I do miss the respectful honesty of the past.”
Allora Kennel Club Inc Shows
As a mark of respect and in celebration of the life of Queen Elizabeth II, a minute’s silence and a Corgi guard of honour was observed at the Allora Kennel Club Show 1 on Saturday 10 September 2022. Benson (pictured left) celebrated his 5th birthday at the show. A birthday isn’t a birthday without bringing your party hat, cake and smile for your Corgi friends.

Golden Retriever Club Of Qld Inc Heart and Eye Clinic
– Carolyn Ryan
On the 21 and 22 September 2022, the Golden Retriever Club of Qld Inc, held its second Heart and Eye Clinic for 2022.
This clinic is open to all breeds. On this occasion we had 13 different breeds of dogs attend for either heart or eye appointments, many seeing both specialists.
We are truly fortunate to have the support of specialists Dr Geoffrey Nicolson BVSc (Hons) MVETSTUD Dipl. ECVIM-CA (Cardiology), Specialist Veterinary Cardiologist, and Dr Michael E Bernays BVSc(Hons) FANZCVSc(Ophthalmology) Registered Specialist in Veterinary Ophthalmology Veterinary Director,
Animal Eye Services. Without the support of these wonderful specialists, the clinics would not be possible.
We would also like to thank the members who came along with their dogs and appreciate their patience and co-operation. It’s a huge undertaking to coordinate these clinics and we do appreciate your patronage.
We are continually looking at ways to improve these clinics. Due to the high demand, we may in future, need to limit the number of dogs per individual breeder. This will give more breeders the opportunity to see the specialists in the one convenient location.
Lastly, thank you to the members of the Golden Retriever Club of Qld Inc, who happily came to help wrangle dogs, administer eye drops, and generally supported the club. We can’t do it without you!!!

Newly Appointed All Breeds Judges
Mrs Michelle HammondAfter being in the dog world for several years and having lots of success in the Conformation ring with my German Shepherds (under the Karham prefix), I decided that I would love to give something back to the dog world, so I began my judging career in the late 1990’s whilst living in Bowen, North Qld.
With a limited number of dogs and shows to judge at, I finally achieved my first group – Working Dogs – at Championship level in 2009. Gaining this first group was enough encouragement for me to continue on as a Trainee Judge, having trained in numerous systems over the years.
I thank all of my mentors, the Conformation Judges Committees, Judges all over the world, Exhibitors whose dogs I have trained on, family and friends for all of your support, guidance and knowledge.
Becoming an All Breeds Judge is not only a lot of hard work and dedication, I feel it is also an honour to have achieved such.
Mr Glenn Wilshier
I joined Dogs Queensland in 2002 and have been an active exhibitor and breeder of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels since then. I have also on occasions exhibited a Papillon, a Pug and an extremely wilful Dachshund Miniature (Smooth Haired). I have been an active member of the Kennel Association of Queensland, the Toy Dog Club of Queensland and the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club of Queensland for many years. I began judging in 2010 and have had the pleasure of judging throughout Australia and in New Zealand. I currently sit on the Conformation and Rules Sub-Committee of Dogs Queensland and enjoy being part of this team.
I have many people to thank for their assistance in helping me in my journey to “All Breeds Judge”, probably too many to name individually. I would, however, like to thank the CJC and group-coordinators for their tireless work with trainee judges. A big shout out of thanks must go to the breeders and exhibitors for making their dogs available at open shows, lectures and field days – without the dogs, it would be impossible for trainees to learn about the individual breeds.
I look forward to seeing where this journey will now take me and continuing to learn along the way.
Dogs Queensland would like to congratulate all the winners and entrants in the Canine Competition at this year’s Brisbane Ekka including our Members who took to the Show Rings to exhibit their dogs, Dog Sports participants and Junior Handlers.
The Dogs Queensland stand proved an excellent opportunity for breeders to showcase their breed to the wider canine community.

Dog Sports at the 2022 Brisbane Ekka
After a 2 year break, Dog Sports at the 2022 Ekka was once again a success and well attended by the public. The dogs excelled in their chosen discipline and thoroughly enjoyed the competition.
Held across two venues Rally, Dances With Dogs (DWD) and Trick Dog took centre stage in the Dog Pavilion where 2 rings were used at the same time, displaying plenty of action for the public to watch from nearby stands. Trick Dog was introduced for the first time this year. This new venue, which also included Dog Conformation, proved very popular with both competitors and audiences alike.
Obedience was held at Stockman’s Rest and was equally well received by competitors and those members of the public on hand to observe the skills of owners and dogs on display. After many years of competing on different days and different surfaces the Obedience was held on the first day giving the competitors the opportunity to trial on fresh grounds.
The Agility competition was also held at Stockmans Rest and attracted a very large crowd.
The competitors and Stewards enjoyed their events in the new venues and were able to show the public what we can do with our dogs.

Queensland’s premier dog show event, the ADVANCE PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL saw 3713 entries over a 4 day weekend at Durack. Exhibitors travelled from all States of Australia to what is fast becoming a “must attend” event on the Australian dog show calendar.
Run by Waterloo Bay Kennel Club and Dogs Queensland, the event featured a full international panel of judges, exceptional prize donations from sponsors, music throughout the grounds, and a pointscore recognising the most successful group winners over the weekend. Exhibitors had a wonderful weekend and the feedback was very rewarding.
Thanks to a small army of volunteers, Show Manager David Weil, and the stewards who made sure the weekend ran smoothly!

Breeder Alert –Puppy Scam Websites
Dogs Queensland has become increasingly aware of Puppy Scam Websites using legitimate Dogs Queensland Registration and Queensland Breeder Identification (BIN) Numbers to sell puppies. Dogs Queensland Registration Numbers are obtained from legitimate websites such as Dogs Queensland or DogzOnline, where they are displayed as required by the Queensland Government.
Please see the Queensland Dog Breeder Fact Sheets for regulations and guidelines for Queensland Dog Breeders.
An example of a typical scam is:
• A Dogs Queensland Membership number is lifted from current advertising on the internet.
• The scammer researches and obtains personal details of the breeder including name, suburb, prefix.
• A domain name similar to the Kennel prefix is registered on an offshore registry.
• Once the breeder has ceased advertising the litter of puppies a new website is published.
• No physical address or phone numbers are advertised on the website.
• The seller avoids permitting you to physically see the cyber puppy and only sends non genuine pictures.
• The seller insists on only accepting payment by a crypto currency or a funds transfer.
As a breeder what can you do to avoid being an unknowing victim of a Puppy Scam:
• Regularly Google search the internet for websites using a similar Domain Name as your Prefix.
• Put a warning notification in your online advertising to alert buyers to check any website they are looking at is legitimate.
• Encourage puppy buyers to verify breeder information with Dogs Queensland and make direct inperson contact with you.
• Ensure puppy buyers check communications are made with verified contact details.
• Encourage puppy buyers to meet the puppy and breeder before handing over payments.
As a buyer what can you do to avoid being a victim of a Puppy Scam:
• Verify breeder information with Dogs Queensland.
• Ensure communications are made to verified contact details.
• Meet the puppy and breeder before handing over payments.
• If paying online, use a credit card or PayPal where you have a degree of buyer protection.
• Check website is an established site with a website security certificate.
• Avoid websites without physical address or phone numbers.
• A sk for proof, including ANKC registration papers and veterinary health records for any puppy. Importantly you should report any suspect sites or advertising to the ACCC ScamWatch website. Please let us know about any suspect websites too by contacting Dogs Queensland on 3252 2661 or by email at info@dogsqueensland.org.au.
