President’s Message

W“hen we reflect on August 2024, we will remember a number of achievements in our dog world.

There were events throughout the State but here’s just a few I would like to highlight.

Firstly, the success of the 2024 Brisbane Royal Show. The “Ekka” was well supported by exhibitors and I’d like to extend my congratulations to those who were successful in the various competitions. We need to acknowledge the workers who not only work for nine long days to bring the competitions together, but for 12 months in the lead up to the event.

It was also a fantastic opportunity to bring our dog world to the public. Thanks to all those who attended the Dogs Queensland stand each day. Our staff and volunteers did a brilliant job talking to the public and helping answer questions. Huge pats were given to so many of our beautiful dogs and many won the hearts of those who shared their love of dogs with them.

We also saw the Queensland final of the Junior Handler competition. Congratulations to the overall winner, Chloe Keast and the runner up Lara Christensen. Our Committee lead by Duncan McAllister, is now looking forward to hosting the National Final on 12 October, 2024. Special mention to everybody who supported our juniors

from the wonderful sponsors to those supplying dogs to be used in the competition. Our committee and office staff have done an excellent job, but special mention to Ian Rasmussen for his ongoing commitment of our juniors. It was lovely to see our judge Emma Marshall return from the United States to judge the competition for us. An accomplished handler herself, Emma provided an additional layer of professionalism with a Master Class for handlers. We are indeed lucky to have had this opportunity and I’m sure many benefited from her expertise.

Our Conformation Judges Committee hosted their annual practical exams this month. Huge congratulations to all those successful candidates. Special mention to our new ALL BREEDS JUDGE, Anthea Adamopoulos who completed her final group at championship level. For those who have been through the judging system will confirm, it takes years of hard work, study and dedication to achieve this level. We also need to acknowledge all those who provide assistance throughout the year by providing dogs for field nights and practical exams, and our dedicated group co-ordinators who are committed and passionate about the education of our judges. I’m sure Vicki Schnieder, Chair of the CJC, is very proud of you all!!

At the end of the month, the Border Collie National was held. Who would have thought that holding a National in winter would require the implementation of the Extreme Weather Policy? Thank you to all who worked hard to bring together the event and for the sensible decisions made to ensure the welfare of dogs, exhibitors and competitors were considered. Well done to the winners and congratulations to the Border Collie Club of Queensland for hosting the event.

RULES FOR THE CONDUCT OF A SCENT WORK TRIALS – AMENDMENTS

Scent Work Rule Clarification AmendmentEffective 1 August 2024

Important change made: The National Scent Work Committee have issued

a clarification around failure to call ‘Finish’ in the Excellent Containers, Exterior and Vehicles Classes where the number of hides is known. The amendment to the regulations requires competitors in all Excellent classes to call “Finish” when all hides have been located for the search area or, for Excellent Interior where the number is unknown, when the handler believes that all hides have been located. The handler must call “Finish” within the allotted search time (including each area in multiple area searches), or they will incur a Non-Qualifying Fault. This amendment brings all Excellent classes in line with Masters and Ultimate for the finish call requirement.

BASENJI

When in an aristocratic pose the Basenji is a beauty to admire. Basenjis are highly intelligent, which makes them natural problem solvers with an insatiable curiosity about the world. The breed is a sight and scent hound that is versatile, independent, adaptable, and is known to have an endearing sense of humour.

Basenji – The All

Round Hound

ORIGINS

The ancient Egyptians owned Basenjis and these dogs were considered special to the Pharaohs. Basenji dogs are immortalised in ancient drawings, and rock engravings about 3000 BC. The Egyptians were known to be explorers and traders and most likely travelled to Sudan, and Central Africa and brought back Basenjis to Egypt.

Let’s move forward in time to the mid 19th Century in the Belgian Congo. Imagine the roar and crackle of flames and terrified animals rushing out from the advancing flames: antelope, bush pig, wild fowl, snakes. Bodies gleaming with sweat, shouting and gesticulating. Flintlock pistols discharging ear splitting bangs, and arrows flying everywhere. To add to the excitement, little red dogs are darting in and out and around. Basenjis will follow wounded game for kilometres, and pull it down, holding it until a hunter catches up. They wear wooden bells, tied round their necks or loins, which rattle so their masters can follow them through the tall elephant grass.

The Basenji is a hunting dog from Southern Sudan and north-eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo). Basenjis are sight and scent hounds, that is, they are hunting dogs that rely on both senses.

The first person to provide a report on the Basenji dog in its natural habitat in Sudan is Professor Dr Georg August Schweinfurth around 1868. Dr Schweinfurth discussed the sighing of these dogs and saw them used for hunting by the Azande tribes. Basenjis are still used in DR Congo by the Azande people and the 1st Congolese people who are referred to in early literature as pygmies. Dr Schweinfurth was fascinated by the Basenji and he tried to take a female dog back to Europe, but due to the Basenji’s love of freedom, the dog jumped ship and was lost.

Basenjis in the earlier days in the Belgian Congo 1 were considered valuable and worth more than a wife. In current times, less villages are practicing hunting, and drough and food scarcity have impacted the Basenji breed.

In 1895 Mr James Garrow imported two Basenjis to England that were exhibited at Crufts, these dogs were exhibited as: “Congo Terriers”. Soon after the show the dogs contracted Distemper and died. Basenjis were also brought out from Central Africa to Berlin and Paris. Other names for the Basenji at the time were: African Bush Dog, Barkless Dog, and Jumping-up-and-down dogs.

The next attempt to establish Basenjis in England was made by Lady Helen Nutting in 1923. At the time she lived in Sudan and brought 6 Basenjis back to England. These dogs also died in quarantine in England from the effects of the Distemper injection, which at the time was in an experimental stage.

Ten years lapsed and Mrs Olivia Burn in 1929 travelled to the Belgian Congo. She kept several of these dogs while in the Congo and decided to bring some Basenjis back to England. Again most of these dogs died after being vaccinated for Distemper, one bitch survived, which was kept as a pet. In 1933 she managed to get a dog

Beverley Reid
Democratic Republic of Congo 2011

exported from the Congo to England called: Kiluba. He survived quarantine and was mated to the surviving bitch, but she died from complications.

Mrs Olivia Burn returned to the Congo and brought out Bongo of Blean, and Bokoto of Blean who was in whelp. These Basenjis made their debut at Crufts in 1937. Bongo and Bokoto formed the foundation of the Basenji breed around the world. Mrs Olivia Burn continued to import selected Basenjis. In 1937 the first Basenjis bred in England from native stock were exported to the USA.

World War 2 put a damper on importing Basenjis and dog showing in England. Crufts did not hold shows 1940 – 1947. The next trip to Sudan and the Congo was in 1959 undertaken by Veronica TudorWilliams. A Basenji called: Fula of the Congo was brought home to England on that trip. Fula made a huge contribution to Basenjis around the world. Veronica reinvigorated the breed, even providing Basenjis for a movie made in the USA called: Goodbye my Lady. Tudor-Williams was an early member of the The Basenji Club of Great Britain, which is the first Basenji breed club in the world. Veronica along with Mr K C Smith formulated the first Basenji Standard.

In 1948 Fanfare of the Congo (M) and Cocotte of the Congo (F) were the first Basenjis imported to NSW Australia. These Basenjis were 1st generation Basenjis bred in England by Veronica Tudor-Williams from native stock Basenjis.The breed almost died out in Australia between the years 1957-1960 without any litters being born at all. Then Mrs Beryl Hancock who relocated from New Zealand to Australia began importing some Basenjis from New Zealand in 1960, and so revived the interest in the breed in this country. Also Mrs Clatworthy in Queensland imported Fula Toucan of the Congo (M) from England circa 1969 that was bred from African native stock on both sides of his pedigree by Veronica Tudor-Williams.

Following the 1959 trip by Veronica TudorWilliams, no more expeditions were undertaken to DR Congo until Mr Jon Curby and Mr Michael Work from the USA took a trip to DR Congo in February 1987 bringing home seven Basenji puppies to the USA. This was the impetus for the Basenji Club of America’s Native Stock Program. A number of trips have been undertaken by Mr Jon Curby since 1987. Basenjis from the African Stock Program have been sent to England, Europe, and Australia.

GENERAL APPEARANCE

The physical appearance of a Basenji at a standstill is one of elegant poise with an inquiring alertness that is framed by a simple the of a head, and a far reaching expression in the eyes. A Basenji is even more impressive on the move presenting graceful, smooth strides, which appear effortless to the dog. One can easily imagine a Basenji running for kilometers without tiring.

Basenjis have a short coat. On touching a Basenji’s coat, it is smooth on the down stoke, and slightly coarser when stroked against the fur. Depending on the climate of where a Basenji lives, it can have a longer coat in winter months.

The skin of a Basenji is pliant and can be lifted easily. This characteristic is necessary to protect the dog during hunting, and if it is attacked by predators. The skin can be bitten and torn, but the dog can escape to safety minus parts of its skin.

The Basenji head shows expressive wrinkles, which are emphasised when the ears are alert. Some people say that a Basenji conveys a variety of expressions, which sometimes can be interpreted as humanlike, to a point that the dog looks worried.

A Basenji’s eyes are almond shaped, medium to dark brown in colour, which are obliquely set. Sometimes a Basenji will stand and look into the distance with a far away expression in the eyes, as if they are seeing something we humans cannot see.

One of the hallmarks of a Basenji is its tail, which is high set, and gives the appear of reaching over the spine. The tail curls and sits on the hip giving a doughnut shaped appearance, and it can have a single, double, or triple curl.

Feet are similar to a cat’s foot, being small and compact, with well-arched toes. Remember the Basenji was referred to as the jumping-up-anddown-dogs, so when the foot is compact with a nice pad underneath, this will give the dog the ability to spring into the air to look over the savanah grasses, so it can see game. Some Basenji owners may have possibly experienced being banged in the face by a Basenji springing up into the air – a headbutt that really hurts, which can

break a person’s nose or dislocate a front tooth!!

In silhouette, an imaginary line can be traced from the tip of the ears flowing into a nicely creasted neck, which transitions smoothly to the topline and to the lower back. Basenjis have a more square shape than rectangle, are short backed, with a good length of forearm that enhances the elegant look, a brisket that tapers at the elbow, a visible waist tuck, and a moderately shaped shelf.

Basenji females are 40 cm (16 ins) and weigh around 9.5 kgs (21 lbs), and males are 43 cm (17 ins) and weigh around 11 kgs (24 lbs).

The visual appearance of a Basenji should look balanced. It is important to maintain the height and weigth requirements of the Basenji Standard. Overall the Basenji is one dog breed that has not deviated too far from the Standard. This has helped to maintain the original type and function of the breed worldwide.

Basenjis come in colours of: red and white; pure black and white; tricolour with a tan mask and melon pips; black, tan and white; and brindle. For a brindle the ideal background colour is a rich red.

All colours require white points on each foot, white on the chest, and white on the tail tip. While white markings on a Basenji looks attractive, in particular on the neck of the dog, some Basenjis may only have very small white points on the feet, chest, neck and tail, which still meets the Standard. There is no requirement for a Basenjis to carry white around the whole neck. And it is worth noting that white markings on a Basenji should not venture past the front of the shoulders, or to appear on the outside of the thigh.

All aspects of type for a Basenji are moderate, graceful, and elegant. Male dogs will carry more substance than female dogs, and one should be able to visually identify the difference between male and female Basenjis.

BREED CHARACTERISTICS

Once a person has a Basenji they will more than likely stay with the breed. Why is this? This could be because the breed has charm, individuality, and a great sense of humour.

Basenjis are great problem solvers, which comes about because of their natural intelligence as a breed. They have endless curiosity, which can get them into trouble. A Basenji needs to have enough mental and physical activities to occupy their mind, otherwise they will get bored and may chew up your furniture, or chew other valuable items, or find an escape route so they can go in search of more interesting things to do !!

The Basenji being an animal that is independent, can make them harder to train because with independence generally is stubbornness. Most Basenjis will need to be convinced to do what you want them to do. Despite these traits there are Basenjis that have acted in movies, excelled at

Louise Marsden

activities like Dances with Dogs, obedience, tracking, and scent work. In some cases Basenjis have even been trained to be assistance dogs. Basenjis are a versatile hound that can adapt to changing circumstances. Their adapability and intelligence has ensured this breed has survived for thousands of years largely unchanged.

Basenjis are not silent. While they cannot sustain a bark, they have a lot of other ways to communicate – yodeling, howling, chortling, screaming, grumbling, yelling, and whining. Luckily for Basenji owners most dogs spend their day being quiet.

The Basenji is immaculate, grooming its coat, like a cat. Owners of Basenjis often refer to the cat like behaviour of this breed. A Basenji will lick its paws and use them to wash and rub its face, behind its ears and its body. The Basenji is almost odourless and if there is any scent at all, it is reminiscent of clean, dry grass. Being odorless is the trait of a good hunting dog. One will often see a Basenji taking on the scent of its quarry by rubbing itself in the faeces of a bird or kangaroo or another animal.

On meeting a Basenji you may find they will possibly ignore you, or are standoffish. This does not mean they are unfriendly, it is more the case that they need to decide whether they are going to be friendly to you. Basenjis will be very bonded to their family, and in particular enjoy the company of children, but they are not slavish in their devotion, as they are very independent animals.

The Basenji is still quite a primative breed and will benefit as a puppy to be provided with opportunities to have different social interactions. For example; meeting different types of people, meeting different sized dogs, going to the shops, taking trips in a car, and going for walks.This will enable a Basenji to develop into a well balanced dog that is friendly to most people and dogs, and will cope with confidence in most circumstances.

BREED HEALTH

Overall the Basenji is considered to be a healthy breed, however they are still at risk to most diseases that other dogs can get.

The average lifespan for a Basenji is 12 – 15 years, with many Basenjis known to live beyond the expected average age.

Basenji females are good breeders, whelp easily, and make good mothers, which is important for the continuity of the breed.

There are some inherited genetic diseases that are known to affect Basenjis.

Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) night blindness is caused by a mutation of a gene,which affects the eyes. Dogs that carry both mutated genes will begin to display night blindness (vision loss under low light) that gradually progresses to complete blindness. The progression of vision loss may take a number of years and there is no treatment.

Fanconi Syndrome is an inherited disease where the kidneys do not properly reabsorb electrolytes and nutrients back into the body, but instead spill them into the urine. Dogs that carry both mutated genes for Fanconi, will experience a slow deterioration in their health, but if the disease is caught early it can be managed with treatment,

Ethel Blair

however, Fanconi Syndrome will eventually cause kidney failure.

There are DNA tests available to detect the genes responsible for PRA and Fanconi Syndrome, these tests will enable a breeder to avoid using breeding pairs that will pass on these genes to the next generation.

Persistent Pupillary Membrane (PPM) is also a common condition known to be inherited in Basenjis, which affects the eyes, however, this disease is also present in many other breeds. Unfortunately there is no DNA test to detect PPM, which means that breeders need to have their dogs checked by an Ophthalmologist and to select breeding pairs that are not seriously impacted by PPM.

EXERCISE AND SPORT

The Basenji is swift and agile and loves to chase and play rough. Watching a pack of Basenjis playing is awesome, as they are like dodgem cars banging into each other and slamming into anyone that is in the way.

Basenjis love to chase and it is natural for them to run at high speeds chasing things, which makes Lure Coursing a great way for a Basenji to release any pent-up energy, and it will also provide mental

stimulation and exercise at the same time.

While a Basenji is running, to gain speed it will use a double suspension gallop, where all four legs are off the ground at the same time.

Basenjis are good at agility and obedience, which requires them to listen to their handler and obey commands. This will help to build a strong working relationship between a Basenji and its owner. Basenjis also enjoy tracking as this sport exploits the Basenji’s natural ability of using scent to hunt.

Basenjis require a moderate amount of exercise, and regular walking for physical and mental stimulation.

LIVING WITH A BASENJI

Living with a Basenji can bring a kaleidoscope of joy, love, challenges, and humour into a person’s life. Owners testify to the Basenji’s superior intelligence, inventiveness, curiosity, and endearing sense of humour. An independent thinker, the Basenji is charming and can also be a challenge. Reared with affection as well as discipline, a Basenji makes a great companion. While Basenjis stay young at heart even into their advanced years, there is a noticable change around 3 to 4 years of age where they take on a more mature approach to life.

Basenjis around the world live in a variety of situations. Some will have a backyard and others may live in apartments, particularly in cities in England, Europe and the USA. The Basenji is quite adaptable and can live a happy life in either circumstances, as long as they are walked regularly and participate in stimulating activities.

Even though the Basenji does not bark, it can still be a silent guard dog. Just imagine a person sneaking around your yard, but unbeknown to the intruder, a little dog is quietly watching, and then it appears from nowhere and grabs the ankle of the intruder. Alternatively, some Basenjis will welcome an intruder into the house, or it will take flight and let the intruder steal the family jewels. Do not count on a Basenji as a traditional guard dog.

The grooming needs of a Basenji are low. Brushing is good for their coat and skin. A tail trim will keep them looking good. But a Basenji will never put up its paw for a bath, but despite their complaints, a bath will need to be done every now and then. While many Basenjis do not like walking on wet grass or splashing around in water, some will enjoy

a trip to the beach.

One of the fears many Basenji owners have is losing their Basenji if it gets off a lead, or the dog decides to run off and have fun without them. Owners of Basenjis need to have a good fence, or a very secure home to keep their dog safe. Letting a Basenji off the lead to run down the beach or through the forest is a fun activity, but when the dog is a Basenji, then it is important that it knows how to be recalled, as a Basenji can be impossible to catch if they do not want to come back. Even a well trained Basenji may just decide they won’t come back when you want them to.

A Basenji will need consistent leadership for an owner to stay ahead of this dog, as it will sometimes use its intelligence in manipulative ways for its own objectives. Many owners find the idiocracies of the Basenji endearing, as did Veronica Tudor-Williams one of the pioneer’s of the breed who coined this phrase:

“To see a Basenji is to admire it, but to know a Basenji is to love it”.

Health Problems In Dogs

Reproduced courtesy of Dogs Australia

As with all living species, it is not uncommon to suffer from health problems. Health problems can be genetic, environmental, nutritional or caused by a combination of these factors.

As a veterinarian with 40 years of experience and Chair of the Dogs Australia Canine Health & Wellbeing Committee, we spoke with Dr Karen Hedberg BVSc about health issues in dogs and ways we can reduce their occurrence.

The Dogs Australia Canine Health & Wellbeing Committee oversees the implementation of health testing regimes in many breeds, suggesting different testing regimes which can become mandatory as agreed upon by Dogs Australia registered breeders, breed clubs and breed councils.

How common are health issues in dogs as a specie?

Like in any specie, health issues are common. Compared to other species, there is an enormous range of variation in dogs, be it size, build or type.

“They have a very big range of genetic diversity”. Dr Karen Hedberg said.

“The average human is estimated to have about seven genetic defects and most dogs will have similar figures.”

“In breeds with smaller gene pools these figures may be higher as they would be with humans too.”

Keeping gene pools as wide as possible helps to reduce occurrences of health problems. Health testing is done for the major diseases that affect that breed.

Hip and elbow schemes are common health testing regimes for many of the larger breeds. These schemes can be recognised internationally.

Genetic diseases can be caused by single enzymes that are deficient or not expressed properly.

Genetics can also be affected adverse nutritional

and environmental factors.

“An enzyme that breaks down certain things may be missing and abnormal tissues may be stored in the brain like Ceroid Lipofuscinosis in the Border Collie or Fucosidosis in the Springer Spaniel.”

DNA testing is now available for Ceroid Lipofuscinosis and Fucosidosis.

Dr Karen says DNA disease testing should be breedspecific, and it will help to prevent breeding dogs producing affected puppies.

“Health schemes aim to produce healthy dogs while retaining as much of the gene pool as possible."

Tools used for health testing

Some methods used in health testing dogs include but are not limited to:

• DNA Disease & Parentage Testing

• X-rays

• MRI scans

• Screening for heart, eyes, ears

• Blood tests

It’s important to note not all health conditions have a specific DNA test available, therefore regular checking is needed.

How can we prevent genetic related health issues?

It is important to identify the genetic diseases of concern. To reduce the occurrence of genetic

disease, DNA and other health screening testing are commonly used.

Some genetic diseases can be minor like itchy skin or more severe like blue alopecia, which is common in breeds with ‘blue’ coats. Dogs with this condition can’t grow a normal coat and can suffer from skin issues and discomfort.

“Genetic conditions that affect movement, sight, hearing, reduce working ability and life expectancy should be the main focus for breeders.”, Dr Karen said.

How can we prevent environmental-related health issues?

To a degree, environmental conditions can be controlled and maintained to help prevent health conditions. Maximising nutrition to allow proper growth, good conditions such as adequate shade, shelter will all help to minimise environmental effects. Lack airflow, high humidity, ‘hairy’ ears and wax production increase chances of ear infections. Good ventilation, trimming excess hair and cleaning waxy ears out once a month is recommended.

“I have a rule that if the ears are going well, it’s best to leave them alone.”

“If you’re over-cleaning them you can create other issues with too dry ears.”

How can we prevent nutrition-related health issues?

Similar to environmental conditions, nutrition can be controlled and maintained to prevent health issues.

Appropriate diets should be given based on a dog’s circumstances. Working dogs do better on diets with more protein and less fat. Dogs used

in strenuous sports like sledding are given higher percentages of fat and protein as they expend lots of energy.

“Too many additives can make skin itchy in some breeds, if your dog is doing well on its diet don’t change it.”

“Dalmatians do better on low purine diets, as they don’t form uric acid properly and can end up with bladder stones, it’s more common in male Dalmatians.”, Dr Karen said.

Health issues influenced by more than one factor

Instances of some health conditions like hip dysplasia can be reduced by stringent health screening. To reduce the chances of hip dysplasia, breeders have their breeding stock’s hips scored through x-rays. Breeders are advised to not use dogs that have high scores for their breed. In some breeds, there may be cut-off points prohibiting dogs over the recommended results.

A well-bred puppy whose parents have low hips scores make it less likely to develop hip dysplasia, although environmental and nutritional factors may affect the chance of that.

“Hip dysplasia has genetic, environmental and nutritional factors, the degree of inheritance, rate of growth, and strenuous exercise are all factors.”

“If you grow your puppy too fast and well above weight for age parameters, you’re more likely to see elbow problems and OCD (Osteochondritis dissecans) which is cartilage defects.”

“Normal exercise won’t cause hip dysplasia in a genetically sound dog, if you have a dog with hip dysplasia and overwork it, you can make it worse.”, she said.

Breed-specific health scheme’s role in making breeds healthier

Dr Karen Hedberg has been involved with German Shepherds for 40 years and in the hip and elbow scheme for the breed.

“We started from having a breed average of 20 for hips with about a third having elbow issues.”

“Now our breed average is 10 for hips and only less than five per cent experience significant elbow issues.”

“It doesn’t mean we stop health testing, it just means we have got it to a stage where it’s not as major as a problem as it used to be.”

“Through the German Shepherd Dog Council of Australia, we put on a limit on breeding with dogs with hip scores of more than eight per hip and over grade one in the elbows.”

Through the German Shepherd Dog Council of Australia haemophilia A testing scheme, this condition in German shepherds registered by Dogs Australia breeders has been successfully eradicated.

Dr Karen Hedberg praises the use of generational health testing data to help plan successful breeding’s and to reduce the incidence and severity of serious health conditions.

Dr Karen Hedberg advises puppy buyers to call breed clubs and ask what health testing is required, what are acceptable results and that they see copies of those results. The breed averages and medians for some specific health conditions can be found on ORCHID database

dog diseaseS and vaccinations

Ensuring your dog is protected at Dog Shows and Events

One of the most effective ways to safeguard dogs against various diseases at Dog Shows and Events is through vaccination. It is also a requirement of Dogs Queensland Rules that all dogs attending dogs shows and events must have a current vaccination certificate and not have been in a kennel affected with any contagious or infectious disease for three (3) months prior to the show/ event. Rules – Section 44.5 (1)

Dog and puppy vaccinations fall into two categories containing specific vaccinations. These two categories are as follows:

• Core puppy vaccines

• Non-core dog and puppy vaccines

Core Vaccinations

Core vaccines are those that all dogs should receive as these protect against potentially fatal diseases. The core vaccines for dogs are canine distemper virus, canine adenovirus and canine parvovirus also known as a C3 Vaccination.

The diseases covered by the C3 vaccination:

Canine Distemper – Highly contagious virus caused by the paramyxovirus and affects the gastrointestinal, respiratory, skin, immune, and central nervous systems. It can be spread through coughing and sneezing or contaminated food and water bowls. There is no cure for canine distemper which is why vaccinating against this disease is important.

Canine Adenovirus (canine hepatitis) – Highly contagious virus that attacks a dog’s liver, kidneys, eyes, lungs and spleen. This viral infection is unrelated to types of hepatitis that affect humans and is harmless to people. The hepatitis virus is present in the urine and in the nose and eye discharges of infected animals and, in mild cases, an affected dog may merely have a decreased appetite, appear depressed, and have a mild fever. In severe cases, usually in young puppies, along with the fever, depression, and loss of appetite, there is abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhoea and such cases are often fatal. The virus

is transmitted by direct contact with these infected materials. As with most viral infections, there is no specific treatment with vaccination being most successful at reducing the prevalence of this disease.

Canine Parvovirus – Highly contagious and dangerous virus that affects primarily young, unvaccinated dogs. The virus causes lifethreatening vomiting, diarrhea and dehydration with vaccination crucial to protecting your dog against this virus. Dogs get exposed by ingesting the virus, which is shed in the faeces of infected dogs up to two weeks before any symptoms develop, and two weeks after the signs resolve. Administering intravenous fluids and management of electrolytes are the cornerstone of treatment for parvo. Antibiotics are given to prevent secondary infections, along with medications to help relieve vomiting, nausea and pain. Survival from a parvovirus infection is possible, but depends on age, size and how sick the dog was on presentation. Most dogs will not survive without treatment.

Non-Core Vaccinations

Non-core vaccines are those that are administered depending on the risk. Non-core vaccines in Australia include those which provide protection against infections caused by canine parainfluenza virus, Bordetella bronchiseptica (these both

contribute to kennel cough) and Leptospirosis. It is recommended for dogs who attend dog shows and events and those that regularly come into contact with other dogs, such as on walks, at the park, day-care, puppy preschool, or boarding should have the C5 Vaccination which combines the core vaccines as well as Parainfluenza virus (a canine cough) and Bordetella bronchiseptica (a canine cough).

The diseases covered by non-core vaccinations:

Bordetella bronchiseptica – Highly infectious bacterial infection that is the primary cause of kennel cough, a cold or flu-like illness that causes coughing and vomiting. The main way dogs catch Bordetella is by inhaling bacterial particles. Symptoms of Bordetella infections in dogs primarily manifest as a persistent cough. Most cases of Bordetella infections will go away on their own without any additional treatment, however, veterinarians may prescribe antibiotics to help speed up recovery.

Parainfluenza virus – Highly contagious respiratory virus that affects dogs of all ages. It is spread through contact with infected dogs, or through airborne droplets from coughing or sneezing. The virus can cause a range of symptoms and can lead to more severe respiratory infections if left untreated. Similar to Bordatella, most infections will resolve on their own with antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs given to help speed up recovery.

Leptospirosis – A bacterial disease that primarily affects the liver or kidneys. Ingestion of infected urine or rodent-contaminated garbage is the most common means of transmission with symptoms ranging from high fever and loss of appetite to lethargy, jaundice and bloody diarrhoea and vomiting. Antibiotics are reasonably effective against the acute stages of leptospirosis if started early. The leptospirosis vaccination is recommended for dogs who are in at-risk areas (coastal wet tropics of Australia from Mackay in Queensland through the Northern Territory and into Western Australia), have access to stagnant bodies of water, or have contact with livestock or rodents. Leptospirosis is also a zoonotic disease, which means animals, including dogs, can pass the disease on to humans.

Australian Dog Vaccination Schedules

How Australian vets vaccinate dogs depends on:

1. The age of the dog

2. When the dog had his or her last vaccination

3. The brand of vaccine used

Puppy Vaccination Schedules

Vaccines are given at the following ages, based on the brand chosen by your vet:

¹All puppies receive a ‘safety net’ 16 week vaccination as per 2024 guidelines for the vaccination of dogs and cats – compiled by the Vaccination Guidelines Group (VGG) of the World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA)

²These protection dates have been based on the manufacturers’ recommendations. Where unavailable two weeks have been added to the last vaccine date advised.

Puppies between 16 weeks and adulthood generally only need a single vaccine for C3 protection. These C3 or C4 vaccines are given with canine cough vaccines to immunise puppies to a C5 standard. Your vet will choose a canine cough vaccine made by the same manufacturer that is either:

1. Oral or intranasal (single dose)

2. Injected (two doses)

TAKE HOME MESSAGE

• Vaccinate your dog with the core vaccines and follow the vaccination schedule as recommended by your veterinarian.

• You should be aware of the signs of parvo, distemper, hepatitis and kennel cough as early treatment can reduce the severity of the disease.

• Selected non-core vaccines may be recommended after consideration of the dog’s lifestyle and local prevalence of vaccine-manageable diseases. A C5 Vaccination should be given to dogs that attend dog shows and events and those that regularly come into contact with other dogs, such as on walks, at the park, day-care, puppy preschool, or boarding kennels.

No Judges – No Dog Sports

We as handlers train and enter our dogs in competitions. Have you ever thought if there were no judges there would be no competitions?

To become a judge requires both study and training – the latter being mentored by our senior judges.

Once they have completed their training and

become a judge they stand out in the weather –heat, cold, wind and pouring rain. As a handler we can make the decision whether to attend a competition or not due to climatic conditions whereas a judge has a contracted obligation.

How can we assist our judges?

• First and foremost, treat them with respect.

• Should you see a bar has been knocked in Agility,

EMAIL: marellen@marellenshowribbons.com

ADDRESS: 109 Silverdale Rd Silverdale N.S.W. 2752

WEB: www.marellenshowribbons.com “ FIND US ON FACEBOOK FOR FAST COMMUNICATION ”

put it right – don’t leave it to the judges to do it

• Be ready to enter the ring when your number is called.

While these things may seem trivial they do save the time a judge is on their feet, getting wet and being cold. At the end of the day that little time would be appreciated.

It is also worth noting that many of our judges are ‘mature’ in age and as such, stand down from judging.

Our Dog Sports Presentation Lunch recognises handlers for their achievements throughout the year. Perhaps this is an opportune time to also thank our judges who volunteer their time, travel from near and far and stand for many hours – no matter the climatic conditions. For without them there is:-

No dog sports!

Thank you to each and every judge.

Dogs Queensland Shines At The 2024 Brisbane Ekka

Inclement weather didn’t stop thousands and thousands of people attending the 2024 Brisbane Ekka including the Dog Shows and Dogs Sports Trials – and to purchase the coveted DQ Show bags.

Dogs Queensland held its tradition by having a booth and breed stand this year. Volunteers and staff actively engaged with the general public about Dogs Queensland, sourcing information on breeds, showing, dog sports and overseeing the patting of our wonderful dogs on display.

The DQ Show Bags were highly sought after – staff had to replenish stock 3 times during the 9 days at the EKKA, not to mention the extra merchandise sold as well e.g. DQ caps and bags.

Thank you to everyone who volunteered this year, and we hope next year is bigger and better. Make sure to keep an eye out on how to volunteer or be a part of the breed stand next year – you are not only supporting Dogs Queensland and its work but also promoting your breed, your club and the betterment of purebred registered dogs.

30 DOG SPORTS TITLES

Ollie, my associate register miniature poodle at 10 years old has just achieved his 30th title. He will be known as OLLIE CCD CDX ADM ADO JDM JDO(2) SPDM GDX SDX RM RAE TD TSD TKI SWA.

I say that Ollie is a 'Jack of all Trades' but in fact he has his Master titles in Agilty, Jumping, Strategic Pairs and Rally. He is still actively competing in Agility, Rally, Games, Scent Work and Tricks so we may not even stop at 30.

For 3 years running he was the winner of the City of Cairns Kennel Club trophy awarded to dogs competing in multiple dog sports.

Initially we participated in Obedience, Agility, Jumping and Tracking. Later when they became available we competed in Games, Rally and Track and Search. More recently success followed in Scent Work and Tricks. We embraced them all and have titles in every discipline we competed in.

I would like to thank the club for the opportunity

to participate in so many dog sports and to all the other members of the club who have helped me along the way. A special mention goes to the late Mal Holland from Townsville for engendering my interest in Tracking.

There has been much discussion about whether handlers and dogs should partake in multiple dog sports. I see it as a personal choice with many factors to consider eg your dog, what time you have available and what you want to achieve. If you decide to go down that path then be prepared to be busy! My journey is helped by having a clever dog, eager to learn new things – one that is often naughty, misbehaving but always entertaining and cute to boot. Ollie is Ollie and I wouldn’t have my partner any other way.

Postscript: Since the article was originally written Ollie has obtained 2 more titles - JDO (2) and SDM.

SHOW 2

'Trash Bunnies' –SprintDogTM and Lure Coursing

– Nic Mather

SprintDog™ has been very well received around the country with entries to each event filling up very quickly.

Total entries across the country in 8 trials (4 x QLD, 1 x ACT, 2 x VIC, 1 x SA) totalled 846. Queensland has had a total of 488 entries across the four trials.

Quite a number of dogs residing in QLD, NSW, ACT, VIC and SA have achieved the N.SPRD title and one dog “Chewie” obtained the SPRD title on Sunday 18 August 2024. CHEWIE CAX. SPRD was the first dog in Australia to achieve the N.SPRD title and very fitting to have achieved the first SPRD title in Australia.

ACT had a blind dog run the 100m. They used a squawker on the lure and the dog successfully completed both runs. The owners are very proactive with the dog and spend a lot of time doing off lead recalls in large paddocks so the dog is quite confident running alone. SprintDog™ is the only Dogs Australia sport in which this dog can compete in.

NT members are quite excited about the sport and are looking to bring it to the Northern Territory.

We are also seeing a rather positive increase in numbers for Lure Coursing as the result of SprintDog™. After seeing their dogs run at SprintDog™, several dogs have gone on to successfully lure course.

This year has seen the number of entries break the record multiple times and with Sunday’s Trial held by the American Staffordshire Terrier Club of QLD Inc, just a few short of 100 entries, it is currently the highest entry ever in Queensland.

Dogs Queensland and its' members have been very supportive with SprintDog™ since it’s initial inception. The Queensland team are working towards having a permanent SprintDog™ track put in parallel to the lure coursing field (the area currently roped off). The SprintDog™ Club of QLD Inc have been trying to raise funds via photos from events and will have raffles in the future, to help go towards the costs of building the track.

The first stage is earthworks to rip and level the area out so that we can estimate the amount of dirt etc needed to create the track at the right height.

Then we have approx. 300lm of 1200mm high fencing, a 25-30m x 4m sand pit for stopping which will require a small retaining wall and then of

course grass / seeding. It’s going to take a lot of work, but will be worth it in the end.

If anyone would like to contribute to the project, please email nic@pixelcedar.com.

For any clubs looking to hold SprintDog™ Trials, please email nic@pixelcedar.com or info@sprintdogqld.com

The more clubs holding trials, the more dogs will have a chance to compete.

To try to minimise the risk of burn-out with workers, the SprintDog™ Club of QLD Inc are more than happy to train people in the positions of Timing Officials, Sprint Marshall, Gate Steward, Trial Secretary and Catching Pen Steward. If you’d like to learn how to do any of these positions at upcoming trials, please get in contact.

There will be a Sprint Tryout Day on 15 September 2024 at Dogs Queensland on the Lure Coursing Field for those new to the sport or those struggling to get their dogs to run. The event is being hosted by the Queensland Sighthound Association Inc and available to enter via Show Manager showmanager.com.au/activity/2766

Until next time, Tally-Ho!
