Benefits of Registering your Chinook with the American Kennel Club (AKC)
Recognition of Breed Standard: The AKC establishes and maintains breed standards for dog breeds, including the Chinook. Registering your dog with the AKC ensures that your Chinook meets the criteria set for the breed, contributing to the preservation and integrity of the breed standard.
Participation in AKC Events: Registering with the AKC allows your Chinook to participate in various AKC events and competitions, such as conformation shows, obedience trials, agility competitions, and more. This provides opportunities for your dog to showcase its abilities and skills while also allowing you to connect with other dog enthusiasts.
Pedigree Documentation: The AKC provides a pedigree for registered dogs, documenting the lineage and ancestry of your Chinook. This information can be valuable for breeders and helpful if you decide to breed your dog in the future.
Breeders' Network: Registering your Chinook with the AKC connects you to a network of responsible breeders and enthusiasts who share a common interest in the breed. This network can be a valuable resource for information, advice, and support related to your Chinook's care, training, and health.
Health Monitoring: The AKC actively promotes responsible breeding practices and encourages breeders to prioritize the health and well-being of dogs. By registering your Chinook with the AKC, you contribute to the overall health monitoring efforts for the breed.
Titles and Awards: Participation in AKC events allows your Chinook to earn titles and awards based on its performance in various competitions. These titles can be a testament to your dog's abilities and a source of pride for you as an owner.
It's important to note that while AKC registration offers these benefits, it's not a guarantee of the quality or health of an individual dog. Responsible breeding practices, regular veterinary care, proper training, and a loving environment are crucial factors in ensuring the well-being of your Chinook, regardless of registration status.
Chinooks Shine at Westminster Kennel Club: Rarer
By: Kathleen Riley
The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show is renowned for showcasing the finest breeds and the most exceptional canines Amidst the pomp and pedigree, an extraordinary occurrence unfolded: five Chinooks, one of the rarest dog breeds in the world, made their grand appearance. These magnificent dogs, often said to be "rarer than unicorns," added a unique charm to this year's event.
A Brief History of the Chinook
Chinooks are known for their strength, endurance, and gentle disposition, making them exceptional working dogs and loyal companions The Chinook breed, derived from a single ancestor, originated in the early 20th century in New Hampshire, USA Chinook was born on Arthur Treadwell Walden's Wonalancet, New Hampshire farm in 1917 He was one of three pups born to a "Northern Husky" female, sired by one of Robert Edwin Peary Sr's North Pole team dogs. Chinook's sire was a large, mixedbreed dog. Chinook was a "sport," a phenomenon of nature, not resembling either of his parents. Chinook was an outstanding sled dog and accompanied Admiral Byrd's South Pole expedition in 1927.
Chinook's offspring inherited his coloring, size, and general characteristics and were bred to combine the strength of large freighting dogs with the speed of the smaller racing sled dogs. In the early 1900s, Chinooks set records for distance covered, loads carried, and running time Walden developed the breed to be the ultimate sled dog His vision for Chinooks was to pull heavy loads quickly over long distances. This breed has been preserved through the years by a small number of dedicated fanciers.
Than Unicorns
However, their numbers have dwindled drastically over the decades. In 1965, the Guinness Book of World Records recorded the Chinook for the first time as the "Rarest Dog in the World," with only a hundred twenty-five living, and the number dropping rapidly. The breed was on the brink of extinction at one point, with only 11 breeding individuals left in the 1980s. Thanks to dedicated breed enthusiasts and conservation efforts, the Chinook population has slowly increased but remains exceedingly rare.
2024 Westminster
This year's Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show marked a significant milestone for the Chinook breed. Seeing five Chinooks at such a prestigious event was nothing short of extraordinary Each dog exemplified the breed's distinctive characteristics: a robust build, a tawny coat, and an expressive face exuding intelligence and warmth.
The five Chinooks at Westminster were:
CH Desert Sol Cole Illahee CGC – Best of Breed
CH Forever Greene Fly Me To The Moon – Best of Opposite
GCH CH Forever Greene Iglaak Perry
RI FDC CAA BCAT RATM CZ8B DN
CGCA TKE ATT – Select Dog
GCH CH Forever Greene Nahla VCD1
CDX BN RE CGC TKN – Select Bitch
CH Forever Greene Ilamaaq CGC TKN
– Award of Merit
Rarer Than Unicorns
Chinooks are often said to be "rarer than unicorns." While the phrase is metaphorical, it underscores the breed's scarcity. Unlike unicorns, which are mythical creatures, Chinooks are very real but exceptionally rare There are only about 1,000 Chinooks worldwide, making every sighting a significant event for dog enthusiasts and breeders alike
Why Chinooks Matter
The appearance of Chinooks at Westminster is more than just a celebration of their rarity; it is a testament to the resilience of the breed and the dedication of those who strive to preserve it. Each Chinook carries the legacy of Arthur Treadwell Walden's vision and the collective efforts of breed enthusiasts who have worked tirelessly to save them from extinction. Chinooks are not only treasured for their rarity but also for their outstanding qualities. They are intelligent, affectionate, and versatile, making them excellent family pets and working dogs. Their participation in Westminster highlights the importance of preserving rare breeds and the diverse heritage of the canine world.
Conclusion
The sight of five Chinooks at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show was a rare and delightful spectacle, reminding us of the beauty and diversity within the dog kingdom As these "unicorns" paraded with grace and poise, they represented their breed, the success of conservation efforts, and the enduring bond between humans and their four-legged friends. In a world where unicorns remain a fantasy, the Chinook is a natural and remarkable testament to nature's wonders.

Our Journey to Westminster
Our journey to Westminster started with a simple desire to connect with other Chinook owners and quickly became a dream come true. I reached out to a fellow Chinook owner on a Facebook group because I noticed that she lived locally in Washington. I reached out to her because Chinooks are so rare, and I wanted to connect sometime and have some Chinook camaraderie. Her response was, “Please tell me you show your dog!” Anastasia Logan with Platform Chinooks was the one who got me hooked on showing
We have always watched the dog shows on national television, particularly the one shown on Thanksgiving, and always wondered why there was never a Chinook represented My response would always be jokingly saying, “Guess I will have to do it one day.” That little dream lay dormant until 2022 when Logan offered to show me my Chinook “Coulee” if I didn’t. Honestly, I thought she was crazy to believe Coulee could mind his manners in a setting such as a dog show, but her tenacity rubbed off on me and gave me the courage to start learning. We are so thankful for her and the community she introduced us to. They welcomed us into the ring with sincere encouragement and shared their tips and tricks, making all the difference
When first starting, we began attending obedience training and conformation classes once a week. The first conformation class we attended, I left with leash burns on my hands and tears in my eyes. In another class, I started gaiting, and my hotdog bait flew out of my treat
pouch and all over the training center. Coulee, the other dogs, and their handlers went crazy, and I left with my tail between my legs. As overwhelmed and embarrassed as I was at times, Coulee was always happy to train, so we kept at it. That time I spent with my dog, where we were both learning together, created an incredible bond I will forever cherish. It has allowed us to see his working dog demeanor and has given him a chance to shine.

Attending the Westminster Dog Show was a grand experience I couldn’t have imagined Shelly Londer reached out and offered personal training videos and advice She has always made us feel that a win for any Chinook is a win for ALL Chinooks. She guided booking hotels early in New York, filling out the entry forms, and checking statistics. Patti Richards was another wonderful help, offering her advice on wardrobe and the crate spaces where she welcomed us with open arms. We were kindly gifted a unicorn brooch by Kirsten Ludwig, which we all proudly wore, representing our rare breed. We felt incredibly supported by the Chinook community from all over the country!
We chose to fly into Philadelphia and make the two-hour drive up to Flushing, New York We stayed at the Four Points by Sheraton, and Coulee learned how to go to the bathroom on turf It felt so special to enter the show grounds at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, yet it was so familiar because it was still just a dog show. The nerves about flying and just making it to the show subsided, and all that was left was excitement about being there with my dog and partner, Steve. Our family from Pennsylvania also joined us, as did our breeder Kristy Jolly, which was so comforting and memorable. When the time came, we just went out there and had fun with our new Chinook friends.
Every Chinook in that ring was stunning, and the owner-handlers showed the world our breed. We are thankful that everyone invited made the journey to be a part of this show Being told we were “Best of Breed” was just the cherry on top. Coulee was able to obtain his Grand Championship at the Westminster Dog Show. Shelly offered to assist me in the staging area, for which we are eternally grateful. She hyped Coulee and me up while also keeping me calm and collected. Once we got to “Groups,” seeing that yellow box that said “Chinook” fulfilled my wildest dream of representing Chinooks at a National Show. We couldn’t be more proud of him, and we hope that others can take our story and feel welcomed, inspired, and confident that they can do it, too!

Westminster 2024
The annual Westminster Kennel Club (WKC) Dog Show is the premier AKC event and should be experienced at least once by anyone who raises or shows their dogs. The WKC always goes above and beyond to host a top-notch event, which this year was held at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens, New York. This was our fifth time at Westminster and the fourth time as an invited entry We were privileged to have all five of the Chinooks that WKC invited there, and I am proud that we were the breeder of four of them. Perry and I were there to show Nahla, and it was also extra special because he was there to share this experience with us! Perry and I enjoyed seeing the Forever Greene dogs Perry, llamaaq, and Serenade (along with their people!) and meeting Ashley, Steve, and their dog, Coulee,
from Washington State We were also able to meet Coulee's breeder, Kristy It was a pleasure to get reacquainted with our pups and owners and to get to know Ashley, Steve, Kristy, and Coulee.
We all had a good time, and Coulee won the Breed judging to represent the Chinook in the group judging at Arthur Ashe Stadium later that night It was an extra special win for Coulee because he finished his Grand Championship! Ashley did a wonderful job showing him and representing the Chinook breed in the Working Group ring. I hope that we will again have Chinooks at Westminster; it truly is a great experience!

Chinook History
Chinook has a cast of human characters that deserve a spotlight along the trail, starting with the breed's founder, Arthur Walden, and his wife, Katherine "Kate" Sleeper.
Arthur Walden was an explorer, and his wife Katherine Sleeper was a community builder. Although quite different, they were very much in love and had a fascinating life together.
One of their favorite activities was to snowshoe and cross-country ski up to a wee warming hut halfway up Whiteface towards Blueberry Ledges as a respite from running the Wonalancet Inn.
Walden learned about sled dogs when he went to the Klondike during the 1896 Gold Rush. Walden's dog, Chinook, is the foundation sire of the Chinook breed. All known dogs of this breed descend from Chinook. The breed is known for pulling heavy loads quickly over long distances. Chinook and 16 of his descendants accompanied Walden and Admiral Richard Byrd to Antarctica in 1928. Chinook was very popular in the press during the Antarctic expedition. When he disappeared during the trip to the South Pole, the newspapers were full of stories about this faithful and unique dog.
Kate Sleeper (1862 – 1949)
Katherine "Kate" Sleeper was born near Boston in 1862, the only child of Charles F Sleeper and Zilpha Thomas Her grandfather, John Sherburne Sleeper, spent 22 years in the merchant marine service, making captain by age 25. After retiring from the sea, he became the editor of the Boston Journal, mayor of Roxbury, and state senator.
Although her mother died when she was ten, Kate Sleeper was raised in a setting rich in education and community involvement. After her mother's death, she moved with her father to her grandfather's Roxbury, New Hampshire home. She had frequented the Chocorua area of Tamworth during vacations, visiting friends and family for many years She was enamored with the place and decided to go into business for herself during one of these visits by moving to the area and opening an inn
In 1890, while visiting Tamworth, she searched for a good location. During her earlier scouting trips, she fell in love with Birch Intervale (which was later renamed Wonalancet) and decided to settle there. She bought a 600-acre farm and renamed it "Wonalancet Farm " Wonalancet Farm began to take form, rising to regional prominence and hosting tourists, outdoor enthusiasts, and members of society into the 1930s
Continued on Page 13
Antler House
Kate was young, charming, energetic, friendly, sincere, and determined. She possessed a rare quality of inspiring others to want what she wanted. One of the things she wanted was help running her farm. She asked her 19-year-old friend and relative by marriage, Arthur Walden, to help her with the farm portion. The pair married in 1902 after living and working together for 12 years.
Kate initiated the first church service held in Wonalancet Chapel. Reverend Walden, Rector at St. Paul's Cathedral in Boston, and Arthur Walden's father was a guest at the Inn when Kate asked if he wanted to hold a sermon in the chapel.
Kate loved the outdoors and formed the Wonalancet Out Door Club (WODC). In the summer of 1891, she had the four-time Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) president Charles E. Fay and Councillor William Ladd as guests at the Inn. She thought that Birch Intervale would become more attractive to visitors if they made Wonalancet an easy access point.
Kate was the first postmaster in Wonalancet when a post office was established in 1893. The post office was originally in the Antlers Tea Room early in the century. Kate Sleeper and friends sorted and distributed mail. Kate also brought in the first telephone to Wonalancet.
In 1914, Kate secured 3,000 acres of forest around "the Bowl" north of Wonalancet to become part of White Mountain National Forest (WMNF) instead of being clear-cut and logged. She organized a big parade in Wonalancet to celebrate this event. Around the same time, she was recognized by the French Government and decorated for running an operation and making surgical dressings and clothing for suffering people in Europe.
The conjunction of the great depression of the 1930s and World War II resulted in financial hardships for innkeepers. The Waldens retired to "Brookwalden," leasing Wonalancet Farm to others. March 26, 1947, "Brookwalden" burned. Arthur rescued Kate from the flames, but he died while fighting the fire. His death was a significant loss to the community and for Kate. Sometime later, Kate remarked, "He went as he would have liked to go in the glory of flame. " Kate and Arthur are buried side-by-side a few yards east of the Wonalancet Chapel.

An Open Letter to the Chinook Community
March 2024
Please let me start by saying that these are my own personal views, based on my own observations and from being around the Chinook breed for most of my life. I apologize in advance for the length of the letter, but I feel it's time to express my thoughts on the Chinooks and recent developments that I feel could potentially affect the very future of the breed itself
My great-grandfather was Perry Greene, and my earliest memories are from when my parents, my sister, and I lived in what had been the guest house on the grounds of the Perry Greene Kennels; I would have been about three years old We spent a lot of time around the Chinooks; they were such gentle and intelligent souls, and we loved being around them I was intrigued at a young age by their tawny color, black markings over their eyes, and demeanor Our family moved out of the guest house in 1967. We relocated to an area in Waldoboro called Winslow's Mills, where we lived until 1970. In 1970, we moved back to the kennel property, this time into the main house. My first job as an 8-year-old was going out and making sure the yard was kept clean from canine "deposits" from our house dog Kima Later, I had the additional daily duties of watering the dogs in the kennel and cleaning their runs
There was a storehouse of my great-grandfather's notes and scrapbooks in the house's attic at the time. I spent many hours poring through the clippings from articles about him and the dogs, old Chinook News issues, his correspondence, and pictures of dogs throughout the years. From all of this, I learned a great deal about Arthur Walden, my greatgrandfather, and the Chinook breed. There was a fence around the kennel with informational signs about the Chinooks where passers-by could stop by and view the dogs I recall reading those signs while playing on the path. When I was a little older, I would greet the visitors to the kennel, answer their questions, and share some of the information I gleaned
Working full-time while caring for their growing family (there were five of us by then) influenced my parents' decision to sell the Chinooks in 1979 The dogs were housed at Sukee German Shepherd Kennel in Warren for the next few years, after which they were distributed across the country by Kathy Adams, the Wolperts, and the Abrahams
Fast forwarding to 1985, I married Patti While we were dating, she saw the oil paintings of Riki and Bering at my parents' house and inquired about the Chinooks She met some of the Chinooks at Tamworth a few years after that and was hooked My first impression of most of those dogs we met in Tamworth that day was that they weren't quite as large as the ones we had at the kennel during my childhood. However, they still had that engaging demeanor and quiet intelligence We were around the Chinook community for several years after that initial contact, attending gatherings and visiting with various individuals and their Chinooks. There were few breeders then and only a few hundred dogs Still, we were struck by the level of dedication and the emphasis many of the breeders were placing on trying to get the breed back to where it had been.
In 1998, we took Raluk and Dukavik, Chinook crosses from the same litter, into our home In 2002, we welcomed Doonerak, our first purebred Chinook, into our family. Doonerak was smaller than the old dogs, but she was the epitome of the Chinook in my mind, both in her appearance and temperament. We have bred eight litters, two from Doonerak and the rest from her descendants.
During the time period where Patti and I were getting reacquainted with the Chinooks, my grandmother Freda Greene Richards (Perry Greene's only child) had written a narration she called "Requiem for the Chinook" because she felt that the large, tawny-colored, intelligent dogs she remembered were a thing of the past and not present in most of the Chinook population at that time. It broke her heart to see smaller, white, black, and multicolored dogs being labeled as Chinooks because it was the antithesis of what she remembered about them
(Continued on Page 15)
(Continued from Page 10)
However, she was overjoyed when she met Doonerak. She said that Doonerak was definitely smaller, but she had the classic appearance and temperament of Perry Greene's Chinooks She was so inspired that she wrote a poem about how Doonerak was carrying on the legacy of the breed
Looking at the current state of the Chinook, I cannot help but think that my grandmother was about 25 years too early in writing her requiem for the breed True story: a few years ago, my mom attended a UKC conformation show with Patti and me
When one of the dogs was entering the ring, she asked me, "What kind of dog is that?" When I explained that it was a Chinook (the only breed that was in that particular show), she responded that it didn't look anything like a Chinook to her As she looked around at the other participants, she mentioned that very few actually looked like the Chinooks she remembered There are more dogs and breedings than ever before. Still, we seem to be reverting back to a time where off-color, smaller dogs with temperament issues are becoming more and more prevalent Making things worse is the introduction of other breeds into the gene pool, some of which carry significant health risks that are being introduced to our beloved Chinooks. Our boy Atka, who is about the closest thing I have seen to the dogs I remember from my youth, has only produced one litter Due to members of the community who have discouraged the use of any dogs from our line, including Atka, it appears the line that produced this beautiful example of the classic Chinook will end.
It seems that the classic Chinook "type" is becoming rarer and rarer, which saddens me immensely because I've witnessed just how special the Chinook breed can be Anyone should be able to recognize a Chinook as a tawny dog with black markings and intelligent, confident demeanors; it should not be something that is read about in old magazines and history books The days of Arthur Walden and Perry Greene having exclusive control are long past, so going forward, it is imperative that ALL breeders and owners work together in preserving the legacy of Chinook and his descendants. Preserving this rich legacy needs to take precedence over any individual's prominence or desire for notoriety. As someone who has been around the Chinook breed for almost 60
years, it saddens me greatly to think that the breed as I know it appears to be on the road to extinction. Please do not let these beautiful, intelligent, tawny dogs with black markings over their eyes and muzzles disappear forever
Sincerely
Perry Greene Richards

1979 - The remaining Chinook dogs came to be kenneled at the Sukeforth (Sukee) German Sheperd Kennels in Warren, Maine. 1981 - Neil and Marra Wollpert went looking for the Chinook and found Kathy Adams working at the Sukee Kennels trying to save the breed from extinction. Only twenty-eight dogs remained, and most were elderly or neutered. The remaining eleven breedable Chinook dogs were divided between Neil and Mara Wollpert of Ohio (Singing Woods Chinooks), Kathy Adams of Maine (Alder Patch Chinooks), Peter Abrahams of California (Yokayo Chinooks)
