D MAGAZINE EDITIORIAL 2015 Welcome to D Magazine’s 20th Annual issue celebrating dogs in general and the people who enjoy and love them. This once a year coffee table presentation about the international world of dogs is usually long on history and the people and organizations that have done so much to further and continue the relationships between man and his best friend the dog.

THIS GIANT SHIFT in priorities in man’s relationships with his dogs is no better illustrated in our law schools where today over 70 of them teach courses in animal law! Indeed seminars throughout the country have been and are continuing to be held to discuss the relationship between man as a dog’s owner or guardian as to the older concept of the dog being mere chattel to his/her owner. Figures continue to roll in showing that Americans spend $2 to $3 billion more on their dogs (excluding food) than they do on their children!!! What does that tell you about the American financial mentality when it comes to their dogs? Add to that the moral standards they extend to the dogs and one finds a mind-set among many dog owners that is both unsettling and mind-boggling. tionships are healthy and happy situations which mutually benefit all involved but taken to the extreme over indulgence and over humanization can be as questionable as a downright abusive situation in which some dogs find themselves. The Conformation World is in our opinion a happy medium and is unique in that most people who travel the circuit treat their charges in various ways. The show dog is a pet, it is a worker and it is a companion all at the same time. It is the single pet owner who tends to fall into the trap of over humanizing the pet and who wittingly or not encourages the extremists within the animal rights movement. One of the problems today is that many of these extreme movements within the animal rights contingencies seem to have become magnets for monied activists who mistakenly believe they are supporting the “good cause” when the fact is the exact opposite. We must positively and aggressively get our message out to the public at large and encourage them to join us in our endeavors to promote not only the health and welfare of our dogs but the right to breed them and own them as well. ON A MORE PERSONAL NOTE D and DOG NEWS are excited and proud to welcome the Westminster Kennel Club as the cover supporter now for the second year in succession. This ensures a doubleheader between our operations, both of which happily call New York City our home. D is honored to have the BIG W as its cover supporter and trust this will remain the case in the years to come.

F

ew can or should want to deny the fact that when the term ‘man’s best friend’ was applied to the canis familiaris it was as a result of the dog’s work alongside man as a hunter, herder or guardian of the family. Sadly in today’s American society too many people apply the above-mentioned moniker to the dog as the result of it having become in all too many circles a companion dog only! The trick today seems to be the ability to keep the purebred dog oriented towards the work it was originally bred to do and to be a companion animal as well. Fortunately there are a large number of areas in which the original purpose of the dog has not only been preserved but expanded upon such as in guard dogs, therapy dogs, war dogs and nose work dogs. It seems today the dog’s duties are as varied and complex as our own lives can be and mirror those lives as well. However in too many an urban situation the role of the family dog as being a part of the family and the carry over of human ethical standards to the breeding of dogs expanded in a manner unvisioned by most. How to measure the differences and at the same time protect the health and well-being of our charges is one of the major problems facing breeders and owners today, as compared for instance the goals and desires of dog owners generally. How to encourage the breeding of dogs and at the same time care for and find owners for the dogs in shelters is a major problem with which to contend.

T

hese intimate relationships between dog and owner can and do give rise to a sort of canine identity crisis that overflows into society on a more general path. The values that some people place on their dogs psychologically, financially and morally extended to the point that some people consider dogs to be human or at least treat them as though they are. Now then these pages in no way are implying nor stating that all pet relationships between owners and dog or cats are suspect to over exaggeration, obviously they are not. There are and the great majority of these rela-

Miracles Moment OF THE

By David Frei Founder, Angel On A Leash GRACE AND I STOPPED OUTSIDE A ROOM on the 4th ˇoor at the VA Hospital in New York City. ìHow about this one?î I asked the nurse who accompanies us on our weekly Angel On A Leash visit to the veterans in the hospital. ìOh, no, we probably shouldnít go in there,î she said. ìHeís about 85 and is in the early stages of dementia. Anytime someone comes in the room he gets agitated and starts yelling in gibberish.î ìWell, I think thatís all the more reason for us to visit him,î I said. ìHow about it, Gracie?î I looked at Grace, she was ready, as always, and then looked again at the nurse: ìLetís do it.î ìWell, OK,î she said, ìbut donít say I didnít warn you.î We walked into the room and Anthonyís eyes got real big. And he smiled. I picked up Grace and held her at his bedside level, face to face. He reached out and put his hands on each side of her head and drew her gently to him, that big smile spreading to his eyes and his entire body language. I set her down on his bed, her head on his shoulder. He started talking in gibberish as the nurse said he would, but in a quiet conversational tone. I just responded with some general ìvisiting talkî: ìYes, she is beautiful, isnít she? Her

name is Grace, sheís a Brittany. Sheís been visiting here for almost three years now and she loves it. And everyone loves her, too. I am so proud of her.î We went back and forth like this for a minute or two. I took a quick glance at our nurse. She was totally transˇxed, apparently not believing what she was seeing. She was shedding a few tears, and I had to ˇght the urge, myself. In the meantime, Grace was doing what she always does: generating smiles, conversation (gibberish counts!), and getting someone to think about something other than the challenges they were facing. And, of course, getting pets and hugs from the patient. This is what we do with our dogs in our Angel On A Leash programs. Every day our teams are visiting people in need ñ veterans in VA hospitals, pediatric oncology patients and their families at Ronald McDonald Houses in New York and elsewhere, at the New York-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Childrenís Hospital, and other places around the country. Whether it is a delighted child smiling and talking to the dogs, a veteran talking about his own dog from his past or his military dog in Vietnam, an exhausted or frightened cancer patient smiling, or a parent saying to me, ìThat is the ˇrst time that he has smiled this week,î this is what it is all about. Itís both heartwarming and heartbreaking. We meet special people and courageous warriors every day, young and old alike. Our dogs take us places with them as they change peopleís lives. Yes, maybe only for the moment, but it is ìa miracle of the moment.î For information about Angel On A Leash, please see www.angelonaleash.org

Political Correctness, Boundaries and Trust...

By Andrew Brace

W

hen I ˇrst became fascinated by the world of purebred dogs I was an eleven year-old schoolboy. I had been given my ˇrst Boxer by my parents and began attending local dog shows. When I eventually became an exhibitor (a few years later and with a Boxer bitch as my original pride and joy, bought purely as a pet, turned out to be a monorchid and so never saw the inside of a show ring) I was a rank novice, trying to learn and mixing mainly with other total greenhorns who were as ignorant as I was, if not as obsessively enthusiastic about the magical world I had stumbled into. I donít think itís a question of distance lending enchantment because I have observed how society at large has changed outside the microcosm of the dog fancy, but in those days we humble exhibitors had huge respect for the older breeders and consistently successful exhibitors, and possibly even more for the judges who were treated with the same kind of reverence as ˇlm stars. These celebrities were to be observed from afar and never spoken to, unless one was actually spo- ken to ˇrst, and if that were the case a brief encounter with a superstar was something to be dined out on for weeks! Basic manners have changed in my lifetime. Not only is it a rarity to see a man offering his seat to a lady on a crowded train, doors are seldom opened and ìpleaseî and ìthank youî are becoming a thing of the past. In truth the latter statement is probably far less applicable in the USA than in Britain and Europe, as in your service industries I always ˇnd employees helpful and well-mannered in the extreme, and I refuse to let the cynic in me believe that this is purely in the interests of the anticipated tip in a gratuity-oriented culture. As I started off in the dog world at such a young age I gradually found myself having a circle of friends who were considerably older than myself. To me my school friends

ìAll they were interested in was getting drunk and pulling what were referred to in the sixties as ìbirdsî.

were immature and shallow. All they were interested in was getting drunk and pulling what were referred to in the sixties as ìbirdsî. As you can imagine, one of these activities held little attraction for me. While my schoolmates were putting notches on their bedposts I was off at committee meetings held in smoky back rooms in run-down pubs as from a young age I had become involved with several local dog clubs; to them having such a young enthusiast was I dare say something of a novelty. Having been brought up the way I had been, it went rather against the grain to refer to someone who was old enough to be my grandparent by their Christian name. (I hope the use of that expression doesnít offend anyone by the way, but in our multi-belief world it seems that some have become overly sensitive about what some of us merely regard as traditional values.) However eventually I was worn down and I acquired several close friends who were mainly women of my motherís age, leading her to actually accusing me (in the preenlightened days) of being a gigolo! But I digress Ö the truth is that there was much greater respect for our elders and betters in those days. Today it is not uncommon for relative newcomers to address the old die-hards in their breed, and also leading judges, by their ˇrst names, without having been invited to do so, and make it patently obvious that they believe they know more than their seniors do! They think nothing of telling judges what they thought of their opinion (provided it didnít coincide with their own of course) and then in the post-show aftermath take to their keyboards with gusto as they proceed to decimate not only the poor judge who failed to recognise the merits in their selfacclaimed superstar, but the poor creatures whose misfortune it was to beat it. Social media has a lot to answer for ñ could you actually imagine some of the BS you read online ever being submitted as a ìLetter to the Editorî? There are basic good manners which should be preserved at all costs in terms of behaviour and sportsmanship, and then there is political correctness which is the scourge of our CONTINUED ON PAGE 42

No-Kill Shelters Save Millions Of Unwanted Pets... But Not All Of Them ITíS BEEN 20 YEARS since San Francisco helped start a revolution: It became the first U.S. community to guarantee a home to every adoptable dog and cat. Since then, the no-kill movement, as itís called, has been credited with greatly reducing the number of dogs and cats that are euthanized, from some 20 million down to about 3 million each year.

By Greg Allen, Courtesy of NPR But like any movement, this one has had its disagreements ó including what the term ìno-killî actually means. While some shelters indeed put no animals down, shelters are allowed to euthanize a percentage of their animals and still keep the no-kill designation. And some animal advocates say trying to place every animal in a home isnít advisable. ìAt some point, you begin to adopt out animals that have serious health issues or serious temperament issues that you should not.î - Patti Strand, director, National Animal Interest Alliance There are an estimated 14,000 shelters and pet rescue groups in the U.S., taking in nearly 8 million animals each year. Most are small groups, like Paws 4 You, founded 7 years ago in Miami by Carol Caridad. At any given time, she says, the shelter has between 80 and 95 dogs. Paws 4 You works to ˇnd homes for dogs the group pulls from MiamiDade Animal Services, the county-run shelter. And some dogs are easier to place than others.

I DID NOT KNOW BILL STIFEL when I started this article. However, I had a wonderful opportunity to speak with him (as well as Carolyn and she is indeed charming!) on the telephone. Then I started asking people who were around during his time at AKC and the picture came into focus. Bill Stifel had quite a bit of impact on the American Kennel Club and some of his initiatives leave an imprint down to this day. Bill Stifel was born in Toledo, Ohio in June, 1922. During World War II he served in the US Coast Guard. In 1957 he married Carolyn Graham, and they had two daughters. As a young man, Bill studied art for a time. This led to a stint in Paris to pursue his artistic inclination. He also studied at Western Reserve University and Harvard. ìHe was a literary type,î Edd Bivin told me recently. ìHe and Jim Crowley are cut from the same cloththeyíre good people. Irene (Bivin) used to work for Bill.î Edd continued, ìIn his younger years he had set out to write the Great American Novel.î The Great American Novel never appeared, but a phenomenal publication titled The

Bill and the Clarkís became close friends.î Jim Crowley added, ìBill was best man at their wedding!î So, Bill arrived on the doorstep of the AKC in 1957 needing a job and was hired as a part-time typist. Little did he realize in just 20 years he would be heading the organization. Within three weeks, he was granted full-time employment. Eventually, he would become Supervisor of the Show Plans and Show Records Departments, and would have a young James P. Crowley working for him. Crowley was hired by Norm Furber. In 1964, he was elected Executive Secretary. From 1969 to 1977 he served as Chairman of the Beagle Advisory Committee. In 1976, he became Executive Vice-President of AKC. He followed this up with being elected to the Board of Directors in 1977 and was elected President of AKC in 1978. Stifel had a very active involvement in the dog world.

Check Up The veterinary profession is undergoing a whirlwind of changes ñ where will it all land?

By Denise Flaim o say that the purebred dog fancy is in the middle of a swelling sea change is kind of like saying it’s nice to go Best in Show at the Garden. Everything we have taken for granted about the sport of dogs is being upended, from society’s perception of dog breeding to the longterm viability of dog shows. If it’s any consolation, the veterinary profession is in just as much turmoil. Economic, demographic and generational forces are reshaping what was once a genial, guaranteed career choice into a brave new world where all the conventional wisdom is now up for grabs. Sound familiar?

T

The More, The Not So Merrier Arguably, it’s never been easier to become a veterinarian: Accredited schools are being added at a rate not seen since the 1970s, and they are turning out ever-larger graduating classes. A half-century ago, veterinary-school graduates were almost all men; today, that statistic

has been turned on its head, with women representing 80 percent of newly minted veterinarians. Fully half of all practicing veterinarians are now women, a number that is expected to balloon to more than 70 percent by 2030. Regardless of gender, most of those new graduates find jobs: At 3.4 percent, the unemployment rate among veterinarians is enviably low and far below the national average. But there is a persistent sense that the nation’s 100,000 veterinarians are eventually going to discover that their supply exceeds demand. While veterinarians are finding jobs, an increasing number are finding themselves underuti-

lized. A 2012 workforce study by the American Veterinary Medical Association found that 12.5 percent of veterinarians’ capacity to provide services was going unused: It’s hard to spend time with patients when their owners haven’t booked an appointment. (That number is even higher in equine practices, because the sheer expense of keeping horses has caused a dramatic downturn in ownership.) At its economic summit in October, the AVMA announced that the underutilization number had dropped to less than 10 percent and was expected to stay that way in the foreseeable future, thanks to the recent economic upturn. Still, more and more veterinarians are segueing into careers outside of veterinary practices. Only about two-thirds of veterinarians in the United States are working in traditional practices. The rest have found niches for themselves in government and industry research, for-profit corporations and academia.

And those who do stay in private practice might not be interesting in owning one. When DVM Newsmagazine asked nonowning veterinarians “Is practice ownership one of your aspirations?” 70 percent of respondents said no. In a related question, respondents to the 2012 survey said that a lack of balance between their professional and personal lives was their greatest professional fear. And ownership was seen as one way to up that risk. The older generation of veterinarians “… loved being the goto guy 24-7, the whole ‘jumping into the car to save the day’ lifestyle,” one veterinarian told the magazine. “The profession has changed since then – slowly, over decades – and today we have part-time jobs, job sharing, specialists and emergency hospitals for overnight care. Veterinarians still have a good quality of life, not so much because of the excitement of years past, but because we balance our life and work and family time and are nicer to ourselves – we’re still awesome, but maybe emotionally healthier.”

five years. During that same period, vet visits for feline patients were down 13.5 percent.) Though modern pet ownership has increasingly led to the concept of dogs as members of the family, as deserving of a Christmas stocking and birthday cake as you are, that same parity doesn’t extend to health care, a point driven home during the economic downturn. “We’ve learned that the veterinary profession and the demand for veterinary services are heavily influenced by the economy, as we took a large hit during the recent recession,” said Dr. Michael Dicks, AVMA director of veterinary economics, at the group’s economic summit this fall. “We learned that for every $1,000 drop in personal disposable income, veterinarians see a nearly $1,700 drop in their practice income. Veterinary care spending, particularly for pets, is discretionary spending, and the recent recession provided added evidence of that.”

stagnating for years. While the Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges estimates that the cost of out-of-state tuition, fees and living expenses is up 35 percent in the last decade (to the tune of about $63,000 a year), starting salaries have decreased by about 13 percent in the same period, to $45,575 a year, according to the American Veterinary Medical Association. It’s interesting to consider whether the burgeoning gender imbalance within veterinary medicine has exacerbated these stubbornly low salaries: A 2011 report from the AVMA found that female veterinarians in private practice had a median income of $88,000, compared to $112,000 for their male peers — a more than 20 percent difference in income. The median salaries in public and corporate practices — $112,00 and $136,000, respectively — were only marginally better, with male vets still making 17 percent more than their female colleagues.

Show Me The Money (Plus Interest) Student debt for veterinary students is shockingly high by anyone’s standards, with a median of $160,000 in 2013. (Ten percent of students report having no debt at all.) Some veterinary experts have described the huge debt load as predatory lending that is camouflaged by the fact that income-based repayment policies spread the financial burden over decades. At the same time, repaying that debt grows increasingly difficult: The average debt of veterinary-school graduates is three times their starting salary, and those paychecks have been

Is That You, Mom and Pop? Though the Amazonification of our culture has led to a rapid consolidation in many industries, the majority of veterinary practices – 60 to 65 percent – are still small ones, with one or two doctors. That said, these mom-and-pop operations have been declining in number over time, though it has been a very slow process.

Where’s Fido?

Whether because of tightening purse strings, more hectic lifestyles or the success of spayneuter campaigns, Americans are keeping fewer companion animals: From 2006 to 2011, the number of dogs in the country dropped to 70 million from 72 million – the first time dog ownership has experienced a decline, even if it is a relatively small one, according to a survey by the American Veterinary Medical Association. (Cat ownership is in far worse shape, with a little over 36 million households owning cats in 2011, a decline of 6 percent in

S A TEACHER OF SPECIAL NEEDS children by profession, Nancy Lind routinely performed many tasks for her students such as putting on their boots and mittens. Typically, the children at the beginning of line had taken their boots and mittens off by the time she got to the children at the end of it. So, she had to start all over again. As a long time dog owner and trainer involved with therapy dog work, one day, it occurred to her that she could motivate the children to do these things for themselves by making a game of it with her dog. After handing a mitten to a child for example, she told him her dog would pull it off if he put it on. Soon, the youngsters were

rushing to put on their mittens. The idea worked so well, it led Lind to devise other dog assisted activities to motivate her students to develop the skills needed to perform other self-help tasks. When those activities succeeded as well, she began to think about how the underlying concept could be used to help children on a larger scale. That, in turn, led her to found Rainbow Animal Assisted Therapy, Inc. in 1987. Itís an organization where specially trained therapy dogs participate in programs that help develop or restore essential skills through the use of animal assisted activities. In addition to being its founder, Lind is the nonproˇt organizationís current President and Executive Director.

Animal Assisted Activities Since its inception, Rainbow has developed therapeutic programs for children and adults who have cognitive, behavioral and physical issues. At present, it serves the city of Chicago and the 5 surrounding counties with 270 therapy dog and handler teams who provide 155 different programs that reach more than 1000 children each month. Rainbow dog and handler teams visit 23 hospitals, 35 schools (with more than 100 classrooms seen) and pediatric residential facilities. In addition to the above, the organization offers therapy dog reading pro-

grams in more than 30 libraries and schools. It has a canine Crisis Response Unit as well and does presentations for people who are afraid of dogs and about dog safety. Rainbow uses dogs to help children and adults gain or regain a variety of different skills at the request of the various facilities its teams visit. The activities the dogs perform are aimed at helping them develop the skills needed to accomplish goals in a wide variety of areas: motor, behavioral, emotional, selfhelp, language, cognitive and social. ìFor example, Rainbow uses the dogs to help developmentally disabled children develop the motor skills needed to feed themselves. To do this, we might have a child spear pieces of cooked vegetables with a fork and then feed them to the dog,î Susan Burrows says. She is Rainbowís Program Coordinator, a member of its Board of Directors and one of its Animal Assisted Therapy Instructors. ìThe dogs also are used to teach developmentally disabled children the skills needed to dress themselves. In this instance, the child might practice putting a skirt on the dog and zipping it up or putting a shirt on the dog and buttoning it. The child also practices putting headbands and necklaces on the dog and clipping barrettes in its fur. Clipping barrettes in the dogís fur also is beneˇcial for stroke patients in rehab who are trying to regain movement in an affected hand.î

Rainbowís hospital pediatric programs are geared toward providing comfort, helping to reduce pain, improving patient morale, and humanizing the complexity of medical treatments. Rainbow Therapy Dogs, Abbey and Ridley, are two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels owned by Susan Burrows.

Different Kinds of Therapy Dog Work Therapy dog visitation programs are the basis for all therapy dog interactions: dog and handler teams visit patients or residents in hospitals and nursing homes where the handler chats with them while they pet the dog. There also are specially trained therapy dogs like Rainbowís that perform animal assisted activities as a goal-directed intervention in a therapeutic environment that becomes part of the treatment process. (Animal assisted activities provide the same beneˇts of therapy dog visitation programs, i.e., interacting with the dog still positively impacts the participantís psychological and physiological well-being by reducing his stress and blood pressure levels, etc.) ìWe utilize the relationship between people and animals to fulˇll therapeutic goals,î says Burrows. ìAt Shrinerís Hospital for Children in Chicago, where Rainbow dogs visit regularly for example, there are many children hospitalized for orthopedic conditions or spinal cord injuries that require surgery. Oftentimes, the children donít want to do physical therapy after surgery because it is very painful. As a result, the therapistís efforts to get them to walk meet with no success.î When a dog is added to the equation however, the dynamic changes dramatically. ìIf I tell a child my dog, Abbey, needs to go for a walk and then ask him if he wants to hold the leash and take the dog for a walk CONTINUED ON PAGE 202

Feeding vegetables to a dog with a fork helps children with disabilities develop the motor skills they need to feed themselves.

In order to be used therapeutically, Rainbow therapy dogs must know how to do a lot of activities, i.e., playing basketball or bowling can motivate children or adults to accomplish therapeutic goals.

Survey Says...

Surveys Yield Conˇicting Trends In U.S. Pet Ownership Counts Of Dogs & Cats Differ By Millions

By Jim Downing and Edie Lau mericans own 70 million dogs and 74 million cats, and pet ownership is waning. Or no, wait. Itís 83 million dogs and 96 million cats, and pet ownership is at a record high. These contradictory messages come from two organizations that separately track the population of pets in U.S. households and are cited equally as authoritative sources. Dog and cat counts by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the American Pet Products Association (APPA) never have matched exactly in 17 years of their asking similar questions in pet ownership surveys of American households. But the gaps in their most recent tallies yawn wider than ever. The dog counts diverge by 13 million; the cat counts, 22 million. Thatís as many cats as the AVMA estimates live in California, Texas, Florida and New York households combined. The inconsistent numbers yield opposite conclusions about pet ownership in America. The AVMA reported in 2012 that pet ownership had declined, reversing a trend the professional association said had lasted at least 20 years. Six months later, in early 2013, the trade organization APPA said its latest surveyshowed pet ownership at an alltime high. The number of pets in American households and prospects for population growth or decline matter to a range of industries, sectors and interest groups, including the veterinary profession and businesses that support veterinary medicine; animal-welfare organizations; local governments with aniCONTINUED ON PAGE 208

generation in my opinion. This results in the dumbing down of so many aspects of our sport, whilst at the same time weakening the backbone of society itself. Freedom of expression is discouraged by the very establishments that were founded by very colourful individuals. They prefer to be kept in power by grey suits who never rock any boats and nod when asked to. Rebels become outcasts and anyone with new ideas that challenge the way things have been done for generations by the establishment is viewed with great suspicion and even disdain. It is assumed these days that people donít know how to behave, have no ethics or scruples, as we ˇnd more and more ìCodes of Conductî being published to rigidly govern all manner of levels of the sport. Are people really widespread morons? Some of the guidelines and regulations suggest that they must be. When you are a rank beginner everything is crystal clear. Life in dogs is very much a ìthemî and ìusî situation and demarcation lines are totally apparent. However, if you then stick with it and achieve a modicum of success the waters become somewhat muddied. With achievement will come further opportunities ñ to become involved with clubs, and to maybe begin judging your own breed. As your involvement deepens so do the chances of your every move being misinterpreted increase. Ever since I can remember one of the most frequently heard complaints at dog shows is that of judges ìputting up their friendsî, and of course the complaint will always come from those who were standing down at the wrong end of the line that day. I have had occasion to point out many times to those who are thus complaining that when anyone ˇrst comes into the sport, they have no friends. Logically they will gravitate towards people in the same breed who are showing the same type of dog they are, possibly with similar breeding, and oftentimes friendships will develop based on nothing more than the fact that they see the breed through similar eyes and appreciate the same ìtypeî ñ even though in those early days they may not really fully understand what the word means. As time goes on they may use each otherís stud dogs, exchange puppies or whatever, as their vision of the breed continues to coincide. There will come a day when that ˇrst judging invitation arrives Ö what to do? Should their friends show under them? There seem to be so many different attitudes towards who should show what to whom these days. I must say that I have found few people who believe that it is perfectly in order for a dog to be shown to its breeder in the breed classes (as was at one time

permissible in the UK, provided the dog had been out of its breederís ownership for a minimum period of twelve months). That scenario I always felt was a question of ìdamned if you do, damned if you donítî. Put up a dog that you bred and you are demonstrating nepotism and crookery. Put down a dog that you bred and you are publicly declaring a very low opinion of the stock you breed yourself. It really was the road to nowhere. Strangely, in the UK it is still allowed to judge a dog you bred if it comes through to you at group level, however I cannot remember a case yet when this has actually happened as the usual course of action has been, when the group judge is the breeder of a BOB winner, to perform what we Brits love Ö ìa lap of honourî Ö before retiring to tumultuous applause. So as your career progresses, as exhibitor, breeder, show ofˇcial, judge or whatever so does your role change and the number of hats you wear increases. There is now an overlap when you cease to be ˇsh nor fowl. I well remember some dear American friends visiting the UK many years ago and being horriˇed at the fact that so many of our major Championship shows held dinner dances at which judges and exhibitors mingled freely. I pointed out that we actually trusted our judges to judge the dogs regardless of who they were drinking with the previous night. I was then reminded of propriety and how important it is that things should be seen to be correct. The mischievous side of me asked if it was preferable and acceptable to host a private dinner party behind closed doors! The whole question of perception and propriety can get very cloudy in the dog world and in my opinion far too many people get too hung up on what things look like rather than what really matters. Yes, common sense should always play its part but quite frankly I am more concerned with what happens in the ring as regards the merits of the dogs competing than any relationships, real or imagined, between judges and handlers. I am always puzzled when I hear of close ìfriendsî falling out forever because THE DOG NEWS ANNUAL • 42

they didnít do as well as expected when one showed to the other. Surely friendships develop gradually over a period of time based on, as I pointed out earlier, seeing a breed through similar eyes. With friendship comes a level of genuine affection but also respect; respect for opinions and respect for integrity. Over half a century in the sport I have discovered that genuine friends who are worthy of the name accept each other, warts and all. Their acceptance of their friends also reˇects the attitude they adopt when they come to judge dogs ñ they appreciate their virtues yet see their failings in perspective, fully aware that no one is perfect. Some of my friends have what are, to me, strange ideas about who should or who should not show to them. Surely provided no rules are broken everyone is free to take dogs to whoever they like. Many I know do not like ìfriendsî showing to them as they get embarrassed ñ preferring not to put them up, but not wanting to put them down. Surely if embarrassing easily is your problem, then the centre of the dog ring is not for you! It can be the loneliest place and requires the thickest of skins. Judging dogs is not for the sensitive or faint hearted. I have no problem with watching a specialist judge awarding most of the major prizes to dogs that are sired by their stud dogs if - and itís a very big IF ñ they are the best and deserving of the awards. It stands to reason that if they own dominant stud dogs they should produce the type that judge most admires. What riles me is watching someone rewarding mediocre family relations whilst robbing superior dogs that are not connected with their breeding. That clearly indicates one of two things ñ ignorance or dishonesty. I recently had occasion CONTINUED ON PAGE 62

Babbling THE FATHER, THE SON or….

By Geir Flyckt-Pedersen

...Maybe just doing it your own way When we were still very much in the thick of things, breeding and showing dogs with all the enthusiasm and ambition in the world, discussions with fellow breeders exchanging experiences or picking their brains to get some new ideas are aspects of this hobby that I personally miss.

And by re ection: So many useful thoughts, but many absolutely silly ideas seemed to be accepted. It might seem like something from the Stone Ages, though I suppose you all heard the theory that if a pure bred bitch ever had a “mixed marriage,” she could never produce pure bred dogs again!!! I think there were people who actually believed that. But more seriously :One advice I got from a very experienced breeder early on was: If you see a male you want to use for breeding, try his sire! I could never understand that way of thinking, as all my early mentors stressed unanimously the importance of a strong bitch line, a theory I think we in this household have found is working! I must admit that in one of my breeds I never paid much attention to pedigrees, unless I knew they were really authentic, as I was aware there were lots going on behind the scene. In this breed we had a lot of success by just doing complimentary breeding, based on looks plus temperament and showmanship. To pursue this method successfully you of course have to look at your own dogs without any sentimentality- and also judge other breeders’ dogs objectively! Not always so easy! In other breeds, where the paperwork was more trustworthy, we seriously studied pedigrees when planning new combinations. And again with a fair amount of success. Traveling through the UK during our annual crusades it was always exciting to spend time with other, often famous, breeders. Listen to their philosophy and how they had achieved what they had achieved, plus anything from how to select your stud dogs to how and when to make your pick of the litter, how to train and socialize them and also at what age the bitch should be when bred for the rst time. The answers varied from breeder to breeder, but what was wonderful in those days was of course that it was up to the breeders to THE DOG NEWS ANNUAL • 50

make such decisions. And they were and are naturally the ones with most competence and knowledge in this eld. I nd it so sad and disturbing that in many countries there are rules and regulations that make it impossible for breeders to follow their own head or intuition. I think in most European countries today, a bitch of any breed has to reach the age of two years before any romantic liaison can take place. For some breeds this must be rather tragic, as I know that due to special breed features, the earlier they were bred the better for the dog and the owner. We have had many famous breeders of various Spaniel breeds among our friends- and it was very common to have a litter from a bitch early, normally ok if she were over a year old, before starting campaigning her on a serious level. For a variety of reasons. One being that if she “took off” in a big way and the owner decided to keep her in the ring for a few years, it very often seemed to affect the reproductive side of life! And how many Top Winning bitches of many breeds haven’t we witnessed never producing anything worthwhile, if anything at all? My favorite mentor aka my English Mum was the one and only Ada Bishop of Laund Collie fame. Her father of course the one and only W.W. Stans eld who bred the only Rough Collie to so far win Westminster- a couple of years ago - 1929 I think. And who supplied the Belhaven Kennels over here with a number of well-known dogs.

Example: A short history of unplanned success within one of my own breeds: Mr. X comes to Miss H to breed his bitch to her famous Crufts winner. Miss H did not consider the bitch a worthy partner for her superstar, but lets him use one of his ìunderstudiesî, a son. Result: One very plain, but well built male, who eventually becomes an English Champion. Then Mrs. Y who lives in London plans to breed her pet bitch and she has been recommended a very suitable male in Yorkshire. The snow sets in and her husband gets involved: Stupid to go all the way to Yorkshire in this weather when there is a champion male just down the road. The plans were changed and the above-mentioned local male had a visit. A year later an extremely handsome animal from the litter appears in the ring, some handler gets his hands on him and they have the most fantastic couple of years together. The dog making himself and his owners rather famous- and was eventually sold to the US for record ˇgures according to reliable rumoursÖ But for those of us who for years had tried so hard to come up with the perfect animal it was of course more like a tragedyÖThese people achieved in their ˇrst litter what we had been aiming for a lifetime! Sadly there is no next chapter to this story as the chance bred dog never reproduced anything near his own superior quality-and the owners/breeders whose impression of themselves as extremely talented ñ eventually woke up when no more miracles happened in their world. Probably believed that their lack of continued success was based totally on envy and corruption so lost all interest in this game. To brighten the story a little: Another dog sired by Mr. Xís plain champion also happened to end up in the US and can be found in thousands of pedigrees all over the world. Could it be that the importance of an excellent bitch line actually had some truth, even if the girl in question was in no way a superstar? I happen to think so! So whether you choose The Father or The Son, I donít think they can create lasting miracles without some helpÖ

to have stern words with someone who is young and enthusiastic, showing dogs successfully and now starting off on the judging path. Given guidance this young man could have a future as he has obvious talent and a good eye for a dog. It was therefore disheartening and disappointing to hear that he had approached a friend of mine and told him that he would be showing to him in the near future. What was the point of that? In any event I told the young offender in no uncertain terms that he had made a huge error of judgement that had not been appreciated by my friend who, thankfully, is not the kind to allow any level of inappropriate behaviour to blind him to a deserving dog. I went on to explain that when I was showing dogs I never, ever, told a judge that I would be showing under them. I merely got the dogs looking as good as possible, turned up and took my chance. This applied to total strangers and good friends alike. Eventually he took my point and I would like to think he wonít make the same mistake twice. If we have respect for our friends we must respect their judgement, whether we are watching from inside the ring or from ringside. If we show to them we take our wins or losses, hopefully knowing that they were made honestly and with knowledge. Another perplexing trait of some judges I know very well is the need they feel to apologise to someone who has shown dogs to them and who hasnít done as well as the judge would have liked to do them, based purely on their friendship. Why would anyone ever feel they should apologise for doing the best job they could? That is what they were there to do and that is what any friend should expect them to do. Some years ago a very close friend of mine was judging a breed speciality and another good friend of his showed a dog that was in search of the third Challenge Certiˇcate that would make it a Champion. My friend was aware of this fact but on the day preferred another dog so the hopeful Champion returned home with the Reserve CC. I was horriˇed to discover in the coming months that my friend who had judged had sent a case of wine to the disappointed owner of the Reserve CC winner by way of an apology! We had harsh words and he vowed to never apologise again for anything he did in the ring.

Those of us who have spent virtually a lifetime in dogs have many friends and acquaintances with whom we socialise from time to time. Some of us are judges, some of us are breeders and or exhibitors and some of us are handlers. Contrary to what some rather sad minds might conclude, when we do get together the talk never gets round to who is handling what, when and where as there is a mutual respect that would outlaw such talk. Only last year I had a situation where I was entertaining a good friend from overseas at dinner as he was in the UK to judge a breed specialty. The meal took place because most of the committee wanted to show under someone whose opinion they greatly valued; it was no big secret and was publicised on Facebook for all the world to see. Weeks later I was judging in my friendís own country and he appeared in the ring. I dare say some of his competitors would have seen those Facebook pictures and may have been thinking this gave him some kind of advantage. Thankfully I was mentored at a very young age by Nigel Aubrey-Jones in the art of judging dogs cold and ignoring all the extraneous rubbish that can ˇood into the brain and cloud it. Did I give undue attention to the fact that my friend was in the ring? Not really, I liked his bitch up to a point, fully aware of her winning record, but in my opinion there was a superior male that I had never seen before with a handler I had never seen who beat her in three convincing areas and so he won the Breed whilst she was Opposite. Did my friend throw a hissy ˇt? Did he blank me when we spoke hours later? No. He could see the merits in the dog that beat his and we remain good friends. Most of our judges regularly get to judge dogs that are shown by handlers who are friends, acquaintances or possibly even past employees. Sometimes they win, sometimes they lose, it all depends on the quality of the dog they happen to be handling and the level of competition they meet. Judging dogs is not rocket science Ö if you concentrate on what matters. At judging seminars the attendees sometimes are visibly horriˇed when I admit to them that nothing gives me greater pleasure than being able to put up a friend when they have the best dog. That is not a crime. Putting up a friend when you are robbing a superior dog in the process is. Ownership does not affect any dogís merits. What matters above all else in the sport is that all dogs are judged on a level playing ˇeld, evaluated without fear or favour, and the best dogs suitably rewarded. Whatever dog wins you can be sure that the chuntering classes will be guaranteed to ˇnd a reason why. It was ever thus and I daresay always will be.

of mine who happens to live within a mile of a sanitary landfill and thus is in a continual state of all-out war against rats contends that his Miniature Schnauzer is a whole lot more effective at rat control than any cat he has ever owned. Despite his proximity to a veritable rat factory and having growing soybeans or oats and barley as his primary farming activity, his loss to rodents is minimal thanks largely, he says, to the diligence with which his dog pursues the “enemy.” He figures the word is out in the rat colony that his farm is not rat-friendly and each new rat generation is warned about the extreme peril of being found in his farmyard. He says he began keeping a count of the rat corpses when his dog was only six months old and he started seeing a LOT of dead rats around his grain bins.

ful not to over train or over proof. They don’t like to be drilled on any exercise. So, if they get it right, I move on to something else. If they don’t get it right, I still move on but then come back to it later. You don’t want this breed to start questioning whether they are right or wrong. The new sport of barn hunt has been a delight. The dog does most of the work purely on instinct and your job as handler is mainly to watch and guide. It’s a sport that requires more practice than training and for that reason, it is a refreshing sort of fun for both the dog and I.” “The Miniature Schnauzer is in the terrier group but many of us believe they should be in the working group,” said Pat Heinzelman, who owns Raja (U-UD Ch OTCH MACH Mythago’s Moonlight Mirage UDX2 OM2), the first Ch/OTCH in the breed. “They love to work and they can do anything. They excel in agility and obedience. Because of their keen sense of smell, they are also very good at nosework, barn hunt, earthdog and tracking.” “Miniature Schnauzers are smart, they like to be with people and they are willing to do whatever it takes to be with people. They do have a mind

of their own but generally, once they know what you want, they are willing to try. They are really lively little guys and very good natured. My biggest problem with Reagan (U-Ch Ch Intl Ch Aristos’ the GREAT Communicator for Okaye CD BN PCD RE OA NAJ NF CGCA TSAD TG3 RATN RATI SPJ AMSC-VA) was when we moved from rally novice to advanced and went off lead and then again in agility. He sees the world as his oyster and he is interested in everything. As a result, he’d lose focus in these activities in the beginning. In fact, when he got off lead in rally, he left the ring a couple of times to go visit with dogs playing outside the ring and we had the same issues in agility. I ultimately had to figure out what the triggers were that would make him want to go out and visit. Then we worked to avoid them and I rewarded him for staying with me and not giving in to temptation. I had to be willing to be embarrassed a few times until we could work through

these issues. While this meant we spent a long time in rally advanced, he did qualify for the first ever rally championship and he finished 16th in that event. So, it was worth the trouble. There haven’t been any problems in barn hunt and nose work. Like many Miniature Schnauzers, he took to these activities instinctively and did not need much training to be successful although I realize that if we go on to the higher levels in these sports, we’re probably going to have to get a bit more serious about training. One thing about this breed is that they don’t tolerate a lot of drilling on the same exercise. About the third time I ask one of mine to do the same thing, when they have done it correctly, they look at me like I’m crazy and put a new, and usually not favorable, twist in the exercise,” said Kaye Kirk. Baitinger said her problems in performance activities had little to do with her dogs and a lot to do with her own misconceptions. “When I started, I wanted the ‘recipe.’ I wanted to know the steps I had to take to make my dog learn and be perfect. Alas, dog training in and of itself is very subjective.

jeopardy as litter registrations have plummeted in the past few years. More and more puppy buyers want natural ears but even more seek mixed breeds or rescue dogs. Many breeders have simply become tired of the hassle they get from city and county governments and mandatory spay/neuter laws that are mainly the result of lobbying by AR groups.” Santure agreed. She said, “Animal rights agendas that want to ban or restrict dog breeding are the greatest challenge we face. Their political activities in behalf of laws that threaten to take away our rights as dog breeders, exhibitors and owners of purebred dogs along with the political correctness push that the right way to dog ownership is adoption and rescue rather than buying a purebred dog from a reputable breeder are serious threats not just for Miniature Schnauzer people but for every breed. Specifically for my breed, it is the issue of anti-dock and crop laws. But, overall, and I speak not only to the Miniature Schnauzer community here but rather to the entire purebred dog fancy, we simply need to be much more proactive in protecting our sport.”

No-Kill Shelters...

have been with her for more than 3 years. ìThey may react and get loud when they ˇrst see someone new,î she says, ìbut they are all extremely loving.î If the dogs had not been taken from the county shelter, they likely would have been euthanized years ago. Paws 4 You, like most pet rescue groups, operates a no-kill shelter. But the term means different things to different people. Caridad saves all her dogs ó including one or two that arenít that friendly and may never be adopted. But shelters can euthanize up to 10 percent of their animals for reasons of health and temperament, and still be considered ìnokill.î ìThe no-kill concept will be a constantly debated question among a lot of animal lovers, as to whether we are there or whether we are still working on getting to the goal,î says Richard Avanzino, former head of San Francisco SPCA, which kick-started the nokill movement in 1994. Avanzino is now president of Maddieís Fund, a group that works to promote the no-kill movement. He says about 700,000 of the 3 million dogs killed each year are, as he calls it, ìlegitimate euthanizationsî ó animals that are unadoptable because of health or behavior. But not all dog lovers embrace the no-kill philosophy. Patti Strand, director of the National Animal Interest Alliance, an organization that represents the American Kennel Club and other dog

breeders, says ìthe word ëno-killí has become, really, a marketing term.î Like just about all in the dog world, Strand supports shelters and adoptions. But she says the phrase no-kill is misleading. Unlike government-run, ìopen-accessî shelters that take all the animals that come in, most nokill shelters limit the number and types of dogs and cats they accept. For open-access shelters, Strand says the goal of adopting out 90 percent of the dogs taken in may not be practical ó or safe. Of particular concern, she says, are shelters in rural areas and the South, which take in large numbers of strays and unwanted dogs. ìAt some point, you begin to adopt out animals that have serious health issues or serious temperament issues that you should not,î she says. Strand says that in Portland, Ore., where she works with the American Kennel Club chapter, most of the calls to the groupís help line come from people who have adopted dogs that turn out to have unexpected problems. The no-kill movement has taken hold strongest in Northern states, from New England to the West Coast. In other states, like Florida, the supply of unwanted dogs still outstrips the demand ó and euthanizations are still very much a fact of life. In Miami, the county-run animal shelter takes in more than 15,000 dogs and 13,000 cats each year. In 2012, the county adopted a resolution that its shelter, the largest in Florida, would become a no-kill facility.

Alex Munoz, director of the Animal Services Department, says theyíre making progress toward that goal. ìOver the past few years weíve increased our overall save rate from less than 50 percent to over 80 percent for both dogs and cats,î he says. But that still means Miamiís animal shelter, while embracing the no-kill philosophy, euthanizes thousands of dogs and cats each year. Itís a fact that upsets many rescue groups, some of whom have been critical of the county agency. But Munoz says it all comes down to numbers. ìThe shelter is not an inˇnite space. There are 222 cages, and on any given day, thereís more than 300 dogs.î Munoz says the agency is stepping up its spay and neuter program and holding more adoption events in the community, and hopes to get Miami close to the 90 percent no-kill goal within the next year.

Just about everyone loves puppies. But around the country, thereís heated disagreement about where, and from whom, people can get one. While the large national pet store chains donít sell dogs, other chains and shops do. But in several states, including Florida, cities are passing laws that ban puppy sales in pet stores. At the Petland store in Plantation, Fla., a suburb of Ft. Lauderdale, customers come in all day long to look at and play with the puppies. At this store, in fact, doggie accessories and puppies are all that owner Vicki Siegel sells. ìMaltese, cavalier King Charles, Yorkies, Chihuahuas, dachshunds ó one of my favorites,î Siegel lists off. Even at her larger, full-service pet store in the nearby town of Davie, Siegel says, puppies and puppy products account for 85 percent of her sales. ìSo the puppies are the ones that pay the bills,î she says.

SwedishKennel The American Kennel Club Museum of the Dog and known internationally in the dog art world and beyond THERE ARE A FEW other collections around the world open to the public, each playing a role in our understanding of the development of breeds, dogs in society and showing the myriad of ways in which dogs come into our lives. The Swedish Kennel Club Museum is one of the hidden gems. Established in 1992 in rooms made available in the clubís new premises, it was the idea of a group of enthusiasts, including well known international judge, RenÈe Sporre-Willes, who acted as curator for two decades and is a member of the Swedish Cynological Academy, which now looks after the collection. The museumís aim is in some ways unique, concentrating as it does primarily on collecting Swedish and Nordic art and introducing Scandinavian artists to a wider public. In the short time since the museum was founded, through fortunate ˇnds, selective buying and generous legacies from judges and breeders of the past, the museum has been able to extend its holding quite substantially. The chief testators have been Ulla Segerstrˆm and her husband, Bertil Sted Gren, who left their assets in a substantial legacy to the Swedish Kennel Club. They entertained lavishly their many friends in dogs, hence the decision to relocate their dining room to the museum as a show room and a reminder to many of pleasant times past.

THE NEXT TIME youĂ­re sipping a succulent Sonoma Chardonnay or a complex Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, you just may have to thank a dog. Dogs are not only responsible for keeping vintners company while they work the land and fruit is fermenting, they also greet customers in tasting rooms, tag along on winery tours and protect vineyards from vermin that can decimate crops. They also helped save countless acres of prime vineyards from an insidious pest that was costing vintners millions of dollars a year and posed a serious threat to the multi-billion dollar California wine industry.

Winery Dogs have Clos Du Val long been escorting winemakers through all Winery Dogs steps of the process, hanging around to provide comfort and a homey feel, but vintners in Napa and Sonoma counties had to employ ìSniffer Dogsî to detect the female mealybug pheromone that was threatening to destroy their businesses along with their vines.

William F . Stifel The Best in Show presentation at the Centennial Show. The line-up was really a who’s who in dogs at the time. From left to right the individuals are: Charles O’Neill, AKC Executive VP and Show Chairman for the Centennial Show; Bill Stifel, AKC President; Dr. Richard Meen, President, Canadian Kennel Club; William Kendrick, BIS judge; James Moses, handler of the BIS, Ch Covy Tucker Hills Manhattan; William Rockefeller, AKC Board Chairman; and J.A. MacDougall, Chairman of The Kennel Club (the UK).

Kennel Club, Westchester Kennel Club, and the Greater St. Louis Training Club. He served as Delegate from the San Francisco Dog Training Club, then later was Delegate for the Greater St. Louis Dog Training Club. He also was the AKC Delegate for the Westminster Kennel Club. Mari-Beth OíNeillís father, Charles A.T. OíNeill, worked closely with Bill. Mari-Beth recalled, ìBill was always even tempered. He was a wonderful gentleman with an interesting career at AKC. He enjoyed doing research and was truly dedicated to history.î She continued, ìBill was always at the top of the ramp at Westminster, along with other WKC members, welcoming the exhibitors.î What did Stifel do that left such an impact on the AKC? In a few short years he accomplished some major things that affected the sport and the organization ñ

some of which are still with us today. Jim Crowley gave me a list: ï 5/79-For the ˇrst time Obedience judges were required to undergo provisional status just like conformation judges, before being granted regular status. ï 1/80-Applicants could get up to a group at a time. However, it would take two applications to get the Working Group (this was three years before the Herding breeds were removed from Working to create the herding Group). The one-for-one system in what an applicant could get was established. An applicant had to do 5 assignments in his/ her approved breeds before an application could be submitted for additional breeds. ï 8/81-The Board review committee no longer made the ˇnal decision on judging applicants, with that ˇnal decision to be made by the full Board.

THE DOG NEWS ANNUAL • 98

ï 9/82-Bill Stifel announced a plan to develop a system of judgesí education, based upon input from the breed clubs. The program was to include more effective testing, better interview procedures, and improved ways to conduct observations. This led to the in ring observer program in 2/83. ï 12/82 ñ Details were given to the Delegates on a new three-phase program to bring parent Clubs into the judging approval process and to place more emphasis on education. The signiˇcant changes instituted in the judgeís approval process led in part to Stifelís receiving the FIDO Award as Man of the Year in 1982. According to Dogs-The First 125 Years of the American Kennel Club, ìThe citation singled out his work in lifting the American Kennel Club to ëgreater heights than ever beforeí and, speciˇcally, ëhis direction in bringing about major changes in the judge selection process and the standards for judges.íî I asked Bill about CONTINUED ON PAGE 99

William F . Stifel CONTINUED FROM PAGE 98

the judgeís approval changes. He told me, ìIt seemed like judgeís approval standards got changed every 5 years. Itís still like that.î He chuckled, ìJudgeís approval standards are like breed standards. Everybody goes too far in one direction then they change and go back in the other direction. I donít know if it will ever be any different.î Jim Crowley recounted a few more of the things that occurred during Stifelís tenure as President. He wrote to me, ìOther 1978-1987 achievements while Bill was President included, but are certainly not limited to: ï 1/78-AKC discontinued licensing handlers ï 1983-as previously indicated we went from 6 to 7 Variety Groups ï 1/81-The GAZETTE was split into separate GAZETTE and Show Awards magazines. ï In 1978 the $.25 recording fee was reinstituted. It was in the rules , but had not been collected since 1954. ï In 1983, the recording fee was raised to $.50.î In amongst all the organizational changes, Stifel also represented AKC at the First World Conference of Kennel Clubs (London, 1978), the Second World Congress of Kennel Clubs (Edinburgh, 1981), and he was Chairman of the Third World Congress of Kennel Clubs hosted by AKC in Philadelphia in 1984. He was also founding President of the American Kennel Club Foundation, which established the Dog

Museum of America in 1980. The AKC Centennial Show was held in 1984, during his tenure as President. Regarding that show, The New York Times published an article on November 12, 1984. Stifel was quoted saying this: ìDogs have seen man at his best and worst; his kindest and cruelest and still they are loyal. A dog is happy for what he gets and never asks anything of you. Now imagine if mankind met a higher life form. Weíd be asking for this and that and the other thing.íí Bill retired as President in 1987. He remained on the Board for a couple of years. Jim Crowley commented: ìNow, after I do the draft minutes of Board meetings, I send it to the whole Board for corrections before publishing the ˇnal version. The Boardís conˇdence in Bill was such, however, that when my predecessor did the draft it only had to be approved or amended by Bill before being published. Bill undertook that responsibility with the understanding that he would have the ˇnal say. The rest of the board agreed to that without dissent. Bill stayed on the Board until, after two years, a majority of the Board did not reelect Billís successor, Ken Marden, as President. Bill resigned right after that.î One interesting honor has been reserved for Stifel. Crowley told me, ìJust an aside regard-

ing something unique accorded Bill that has not been extended to any other former AKC ofˇcer or Board member. When we moved into the current NY headquarters in 1998, there was an area where the current Board members have their private lockers. The brass name plates are changed out as Board members come and go. Bill spent so much time doing research in the AKC Library, that he was given his own locker with his name plate on it. While he has not visited the Library for at least the last 6-7 years, his locker with the brass plate carrying his name remains. I donít think anyone would have the temerity to remove it.î These days, Bill Stifel at 92 is not active in dogs. However, he continues to enjoy his art and recently had a showing of his pen and ink drawings (ìLife Lines,î Irvington, NY, Public Library). One can easily access some photos of his drawings on his Facebook page (www.facebook. com/william.stifel) Occasionally, David Frei will ring him up to ask a question. ìHeís my go-to guy on details. I have always been amazed at his recollection of details,î David told me recently. As I researched this article, my reference point is the sport of dogs as I know it today. It intrigued me to know the roots of many of the things I know related to the AKC. What struck me especially was the enormously high regard for Bill Stifel mentioned by everyone I interviewed. I often could hear a pleasant tone in the voices of people as they spoke about him. I have had the opportunity to read Mr. Stifelís marvelous book The Dog Show, and gained a greater insight into the Westminster Kennel Club along with its impact and inˇuence on the sport of purebred dogs. We today are beneˇtted greatly by the contributions Mr. Stifel has made through many years of work with the American Kennel Club and the Westminster Kennel Club.

The real hurt is on at rural practices. In line with national population trends, most veterinary-college graduates want to live in urban and suburban communities, and James Herriot hopefuls who have a calling to treat all animals, great and small, in what’s called a “mixed” practice are in short supply. “There are fewer people out there who want to do large-animal medicine,” says Karen E. Felsted, CPA, MS, DVM, CVPM, a veterinary-management consultant in Dallas, Texas, who is both a veterinarian and a certified public accountant. “They don’t want to go out at night and see colicking horses.” Instead, modern-day veterinarians find themselves needing to channel their energy toward such previously uncharted territories as marketing. “I think practices are better run than they used to be, and they have to pay more attention, because clients are pickier about what they want,” Felsted says. “More and more veterinarians are looking at branching out and doing things they didn’t do before, like laser therapy or acupuncture.” When Jim Guenther, DVM, of Strategic Veterinary Consulting in Asheville, North Carolina, graduated from vet school in 1970, the business model was pretty straightforward: “Hang a shingle up, and they shall come.” “It was a trusted profession, and there was in essence a shortage of practicing vets,” he says. “Right now what I think is happening is that it’s getting harder to start a practice because a lot of new graduates want to live in metropolitan areas, and it’s getting crowded. “The biggest challenge, and I’m not sure everybody agrees with this,” he continues, “is if the animal population of companion dogs and cats is decreasing in size, and we have new vet schools opening up, are we going to get to a point where we have more vets than animals?” On top of that, Guenther says, “we know most practices are doing less surgery because we have spay/neuter clinics doing so many.” Simi-

larly, specialty practices that offer board-certified surgeons have siphoned off business for more complex procedures. “If you don’t use your surgery room, you’re down to wellness, and that’s going to be vaccines and preventatives. If that’s the case, you’re diminishing the number of services you’re going to offer.” The antidote to that shift, Guenther says, is “finding your niche” – offering boarding, grooming, holistic modalities like acupuncture and chiropractic – along with a very client-centric approach. “It can’t be a typical vet practice, with white walls, somewhat sterile but cluttered environment, bring them in and out they go.” Instead, veterinarians are investing in soothing wall colors, quality time with clients and pets, and, in Guenther’s words, “creating a bond.”

But Do You Really Love Me? That approach isn’t just warm and fuzzy: It’s good business. At the American Animal Hospital Association’s 2014 State of the Industry address, the group’s executives focused on why some veterinary practices grew their business in challenging economic conditions. According to the data analyzed by AAHA, the average annual revenue growth for animal hospitals was 5.5 percent. But AAHA identified 23 percent of hospitals, which it dubbed “Outgrowers,” that accomplished annual growth of 10 percent. Fifty percent of hospitals grew from zero to 10 percent (“Growers”), and 27 percent had negative growth (“Decliners”). AAHA also identified a fourth group, which it dubbed “Consistent Outgrowers,” that grew their revenue more than 10 percent two years in a row. Their secret? A focus on four important bonds: between pet and owner, between the vet practice and the owner, the practice and the animal patient, and the veterinarian and the staff. Consistent Outgrowers nurtured all these bonds, describing their clients as “partners in providing the best care possible for their pets,” investing in community events to build their local CONTINUED ON PAGE 126

The Six Flags Holiday Inn provided a wonderful venue for banquets, auctions and housed most of the participants. This is the third time that ABdFC has visited this site. The staff members in both locations were friendly, accommodating and welcoming. The show committee chaired by Bronwyn Bauer and assisted by Susan Upcraft ensured that every detail was perfect. We appreciate all their work as well as the contributions of the entire committee, Marilyn Adams, Scott and Penny Anderson, Shelley Bowman, Susan Costanzo, Frank Dreyfus, Nancy Eilks, June Guido, Mo HieronimusDiMercurio, Denise Hunse, Patte Klecan, Jean Nocilly, Nereyda Pederson, Mary Poineal, Ann and Kate Schallert, Nancy Swenson, Cynthia Thames and Christa Townsend.

here will be shows that made history in our canine world and without any doubt, this WDS held by the Finnish Kennel Club is absolutely one of them. Never ever has the standard for a show been that high. In every aspect the Finnish Kennel Club has surprised us all. The Finnish Kennel Club had proposed its candidature for the WDS 2014 in order to celebrate its 125th anniversary and without any objection or concurrence their candidature was accepted. They showed already their potential and skills during the previous times that they welcomed the cynological world. Their previous WDS was in 1998, while no longer ago than 2006, they organized the European section show. Already months before the closing date, the entries proved that it would become a very big show and ad the end 21,200 individuals dogs were entered. Paris was bigger, but CONTINUED ON PAGE 118

keep in mind that France is localized in the centre of Europe while Helsinki is a long way from countries like Greece, Italy, Spain. On the other hand it was to be expected that Finlandís neighbor Russia would lead the list of foreign countries. Finland had 10,838 entries, which is amazing, taken into account that the population of Finland is about 5 million. Russia follows by 4,127 entries, then comes Sweden with 1,764, Norway with 696 and after that comes Italy with no less than 472 dogs, a really high number. Itís hard to tell if there is a connection with Italy taking over the FCI ˇag as next yearís organizer, but itís very well possible. 68 Competitors came from the UK, but the USA had more entries, 73. There were even 22 entries from Kazakhstan. In total were 60 countries were represented and itís hard to ˇnd a show where so many different breeds were shown, 360 in total. No less than 124 judges from 35 different countries were invited. The Obedience competition was held during the days prior to the World Dog Show, about 15km from Helsinki. Obedience had 100 competitors from 20 countries. Heelwork To Music and Freestyle had 50 participants from nine different countries. Junior Handling was open for anyone between 10 and 17 years old on Friday and Saturday. On Sunday the winners of Friday and Saturday had to compete against the national winners. No less than 353 competitors showed up from 28 different countries. Finns are very fond of dogs. The Kennel Club registers every year about 50,000 dogs and of all the dogs about 75% are pure bred.

sport too. That explains why the Public Relations did not miss its effect. On Sunday, during the ˇnals it was announced that over 52,000 visitors passed the entrance and the stands in the arena were sold out on Sunday for the ˇnals. The halls are very convenient, huge and very big, big enough to hold all these dogs and masters within lines drawn on the ˇoor, indicating areas where they

signs and other facilities, etc. If there is no frustration from the start, people will more easily keep up the good mood, be more supportive and happy with their results and critiques. It was remarkable that I heard almost no people complaining about the judging. They started all in a good mood and could probably stand much more than on some other shows where frustration leads to intolerance from the start on.

the show, but also before and after the show the Finnish Kennel Club is a pioneer in ˇnding new ways to improvement. It starts with one of the best websites on a World or European Section Show so far. The site is so intuitive and covers every aspect of the show in a logical way without getting lost. During the show there was live streaming directly via the site. For the ˇrst time ever, the results were immediately available via the social media as in every ring was a tablet with direct connection to the internet and if you were there or thousands of kilometers from there, you could have the results of the ring of your breed right away. New was also the Finnish Kennel Clubís museum, an interesting initiative that made other Kennel Clubs turn green with envy. A very unusual but nice looking stand attracted the attention and invited you to satisfy your curiosity. There were very interesting pieces on display, including a 2000 yearold Chinese terracotta statue of a molossian type dog, bought by Kari Jarvinen at an auction and offered to the Kennel Club. The rings were posed behind the trade stands so that exhibitors and visitors had to pass by them before they could reach the rings. This is the best commercial option alike at Crufts.

Tibetan Terrier Ti La Shu United Magic Colours, om. Rauhut Sabine + Katja, GERMANY was the one with the Kennel Clubís numerous merchandizing items. The logo for this World Dog Show was by the hand of Timo Lemmetti and was worldwide appreciated of its style and originality. Numerous items were available and most of them were sold out or almost sold out after the show. The main ring was very nice with a big LED screen as background and a cine screen on top. There was one big podium so that the dogs were not afraid and posed more natural. It was only two small steps high. The background music was played by the Kennel Clubs House band. Jimmy Cola assisted for this occasion by a string ensemble. Jussi Mikkola even composed a theme song, ìPaws & Tailsî. There was not too much distraction in the main ring except for a kidsí band performing a kind of acrobatic musical act and a very stylish strange ballet act. ìI didnít want it to turn the main ring into a circus act,î as Mr. Jarvinen said to me and indeed the dose was perfect. The trophies were made by glass artist Tarmo Maaronen. During the day there were many demonstrations in the main ring, but also in Hall 6 there was a ìDog Activitiesî ring with more interactive activities. And every day Animagi, the Veterinary Clinic Chain, gave demonstrations

on how to clean dogsí ears, cut nails and clean teeth, while in the conference rooms there were lectures, some in English, some in Finnish. Groups 2, 4 and 8 were on term on Friday. Group 2 had amazing numbers like 206 Bernese Mountain Dogs, 168 Dobermans, 141 Bulldogs and 138 Cane Corsos. A surprising number of 215 Miniature Pinschers draws the attention as well as the 460 Miniature Schnauzers (all colours) and the 211 Medium Schnauzers. Group 4 are Dachshunds only but imagine to see 831 together ...in one word, amazing. Group 8 had CONTINUED ON PAGE 122

also nice numbers; 187 English and 123 American Cockers, 151 English Springer Spaniels, 177 Flat Coated Retrievers, 274 Golden and 291 Labrador Retrievers and a nice number of 146 Lagotto Romagnolos. Saturday was the busiest day with no less than 8,151 dogs to be judged. The Terriers were on term with 197 American Staffordshires, 192 Staffordshire Bull Terriers and 188 Jack - and 120 Parson Russell Terriers. And also the Yorkshire Terriers were numerous, 171 in total. There were also two Ratonero Bodeguero Andaluz Terriers from Spain, looking like Brazilian Terriers. In Group 5 we ˇnd many Finnish Native breeds. The Finnish Lapphund is the record holder of the show with 526 specimen. The Laponian Herder had 234 specimen, and the Finnish Spitz was represented by 165 specimen and the Karelian Dog by 103. But that group had also 167 Pomeranians, 143 Samojeds and 176 Siberian Huskies. In Group 6 we ˇnd another Finnish Breed, the Finnish Hound. Finns are hunters and this explains that the Finnish Hound is very popular, compared to national hounds in other countries. The Finnish hound counted 161 specimen. The Beagle and the Rhodesian Ridgebacks are two other breeds with high entries, 170 and 191 respectively. The Dalmatian belongs also to this group, 129 were here. In this group we ˇnd rare breeds like the Briquet Griffon VendÈen, the Estonian Hound, the Dunker Hound, Kope, Plott and Montenegrin Mountain Hound, the Russian Hound, Shiller and Smaland Hound. Saturday had also the Sighthound group scheduled including 143 Salukis, 166 Whippets, 137 Barzois and 127 Afghan Hounds, dazzling numbers. But it didnít stop as Sunday had Group 1 with 145 Australian Shepherds, 149 Shelties, 156 Rough Collies and 238 Welsh Corgis. The Swiss White Shepherd is becoming another big challenger with 118 entries. The Irish Red Setter was the most numerous of Group 7 with 127 entries. This Group also has some rare breeds in this show like the Blue Picardy Spaniel,

the Braque de líAriËge, the Pudelpointer and the Burgos Pointing Dog. In Group 9 we ˇnd 406 Chihuahuas, 200 Chinese Crested Dogs, 189 French Bulldogs, 180 Pugs and 128 Boston Terriers. Seven Russian Tsvetnaja Bolonkas were exhibited, a Russian variety on the Bolognese. But as if this was not enough, we had every evening in the main ring an amazing number of Breeders groups. On Saturday and Sunday they were all lined up and occupied almost the whole large main ring. I have no exact number but the Finnish Kennel Club broke another record entering the most breed groups on a World- or European Section Show. Best In Show judge was Hans Lehtinen, Finlandís World Famous judge. He had 10 absolutely top dogs to chose from, but only four were placed. ìPbjís Back in Blackî came from Denmarkt to take away the 4th place and trophy. This American Cocker Spaniel is owned by Kristensen Michael & Pruitt BeautÈ & Pruitt Jamie. Belgium saw its top winning Fox Terrier ìKingarthur Van Foliny Homeî go to the 3rd place. This wire fox is bred and owned by Rony De Munter & Viktor Malzoni, Jr & Dieny Uiterwijk Winkel and won the Terrier special held on Wednesday. The 2nd place went to Italy. ìCinecittaí Sasha Baron Colen,î a Maltese , was the lucky dog, owned by the lucky owner Franco Prosperi. The ˇrst place was to many no surprise. Seeing ìTricky Ricky From Yarrow-Hi Techî move around the ring, small as he was, was a pleasure for the eye and many could not hide their smile when this little monkey dog or Affenpinsher took a ˇerce look around as if he knew he could not but win this show. He takes back the BIS trophy to Indonesia along with Jongkie Budiman & Mieke Cooijmans & None None his housemates. Yet another World Dog Show is over and Finland has set the standard again one step higher, or maybe two. It will for sure not be Finlandís last World or European Section show. And if the other countries will lose track again, there will always be Finland to show them again how it should be done.

reputation, offering payment plans, and following up after appointments by phone or email. Owners are in unambiguous agreement. Last year, another AAHA survey of clients of Colorado veterinary hospitals showed that relationship was far more important than other factors, including price, convenience or even hygiene when it came to client satisfaction. The most important factor (with a score of 74 percent) was a veterinarian who was “interested in the well-being of my pet,” followed closely by a veterinarian with “excellent medical knowledge” (68 percent). Third on the list (at 42 percent) was a veterinarian who “explains things thoroughly.” “Services are reasonably priced” was a distant fourth (29 percent), followed closely by a vet who was “comforting to my pet” (28 percent). Rounding out the rest of the list were “location” and “friendly staff” (21 percent each), “hours of operation” (12 percent), “exceptionally clean hospital” (7 percent) and “prompt service” coming in dead last (6 percent).

some non-Banfield practices scoffed at the idea of “care credits” like these, despite the fact that consumer surveys indicated they favored the idea of monthly wellness plans. And now those skeptics, forced to focus more on preventive care in their own practices, are offering plans of their own. Founded in 1986 under the name Veterinary Centers of America, VCA is another corporate veterinary model. Publicly traded on NASDAQ under the symbol WOOF, the company has grown steadily by acquisition, with more than 600 practices in its orbit. It is now called VCA Antech Inc., a nod to the fact that it owns one of the country’s largest diagnostic laboratories, which provide services to more than 14,000 independent hospitals nationwide. VCA also owns Sound-Eklin, a supplier of diagnosticimaging equipment and practice-management software, and Vetstreet, an online marketing and client-communication service. Despite its many-tentacled approach, VCA is selective about the practices it acquires, preferring larger suburban and urban outposts.

Company’s Here Today, large, corporate-owned practices are in the distinct minority, with less than 10 percent of the market share. But if graduating veterinarians continue the trend of wanting to be employees rather than employers, these numbers might continue to climb. And, like neighborhood hardware and grocery stories, privately owned veterinary storefronts might eventually be crowded out by corporate conglomerates, though admittedly that scenario is nowhere in the near future. Different veterinary chains employ different business models. Banfield, for example, is a franchise, with most practices located in PetSmart stores. Franchise owners pay a fee and have to meet certain goals, somewhat limiting their independence. That said, Banfield was way ahead of the curve in consumer-friendly services like in-house wellness plans, where preventive-care services are “bundled” and spread across monthly payments. Felsted says

A Breeder? What’s That?

As breeders know from personal experiences, veterinary practices that cater to their needs are in the distinct minority. Most have to be cultivated by proactive breeders who forge a good relationship with a sympathetic vet. Guenther points out that the most important ingredient – interest on the part of the veterinarian – is also the most difficult to find these days. As a practicing veterinarian, Guenther sees this firsthand. “My business partner is 77 – how many more years can he do ear crops?” he asks rhetorically. “It’s hard to try to find someone young who wants to learn, especially when it’s beaten into their heads that it’s cosmetic surgery.” Whether we’re talking about purebred fanciers or veterinary professionals, the one thing that’s clear is that change is here to stay – and it’s nowhere near over yet.

FINAL 2014 YEAR-END STATS

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 77

year on Friday many more specialties were held and two Open Shows for the Miscellaneous and F.S.S. Breeds. I judged an Open Show Friday morning and was so pleased to see a lot of depth of quality in some of the Miscellaneous breeds. I can see that some of these breeds will be very competitive when they are fully recognized. It was difˇcult in judging the F.S.S. breeds in that most of

the breeds were so unfamiliar to me. An example was the Swedish/Danish Farm dogs. I had never seen one before and all six looked totally different. In the next few years quite a few breeds will be fully recognized, but they were not shown hardly ever in the miscellaneous classes. The Veterans Class was featured for the ˇrst time this year. I have to admit when it was ˇrst announced I just thought another competition added to two very

long days. Before the show I became more enthused when I heard some great Veterans were coming out of retirement for the show. One of the few specialties I did get to see the end of was the Brussels Griffons. Ch. Cashins Walk The Line became the breed winner. On Sunday the legendary Smooth Fox, Ch Jcobe Kemosabe Vigilante Justice, ìDodgerî, won a highly competitive breed. Just a few years ago in 2010 he was number one dog all-breeds in America and in 2011 number one in Brazil. On Saturday afternoon when the Veteran Toy, which was the ˇrst of the Veterans groups, entered the ring I could not get over the depth of quality. Immediately I saw Rita Holloway had a very challenging assignment. Some extremely top quality dogs were not able to be placed. Here again, the Brussels Griffon became the victor. So often when top dogs are retired people forget about them and they are used less frequently at stud. Out of sight, out of mind, as they say. I think bringing these Veterans back out reminds breeders what they have to offer and they reincorporate them into breeding programs. There is something to be said for dogs that last so greatly into their senior years. Several people commented that they thought ìDodgerî looked better than when he was being campaigned. Also many top dogs are retired when they are just coming into their prime. Hopefully several years from now we will enjoy seeing the likes of ìMatisseî or ìSwaggerî in the Veterans circle. There are many who feel that having shows are too much, but it does give one a chance to see more of the different breeds being judged. I never got to see as many breeds as I would have liked to. I just wish the all-breed shows can come up with a method that will enable the shows to ˇnish much earlier. On Tuesday it was 8:30 PM by the time BIS was awarded. This starts the long six days off by putting people in a tiring mood. Even for spectators this meant not arriving at any restaurant before 9 PM. Hopefully the clubs will address this issue, but it was also the same when the shows were even much smaller in Long Beach. Most handlers and many exhibitors are up by 5 AM so this makes for a 15 ½ hour day before even thinking about dinner. The Miscellaneous class had 95 dogs competing under judge David A. Ojalvo of Argentina. David had to replace Dinky Santos, who had originally been assigned. When the World Challenge moved to the same day in Amsterdam, Dinky had to be present at the World CONTINUED ON PAGE 131

Challenge. David was an excellent choice, having judged these breeds in foreign lands. The entry was surprisingly good in several of the breeds. Berger Picards ñ 14, Grand Basset Griffon Vendeen -11, Miniature American Shepherds ñ 25, Peruvian Inca Orchid ñ 8 and Pumi ñ 9. These numbers give one a chance to see an idea of what the breed should look like. There were 124 Juniors competing this year. In order to compete each junior has to have had great success in the ring and also has to have academic achievement. The winning handler now gets to represent the US at Crufts along with all the top Juniors of so many different countries. Although the winning handler was awarded a $2,000 scholarship they do not receive any ˇnances to help cover the cost of the trip, which will run several thousands of dollars. I imagine that many other countries help with the ˇnancial needs for the Juniors to represent their countries. I am surprised that the AKC/ Eukanuba has not come up with a way to help ˇnance the cost for the winner. I am happy to report that some of the show will later be seen on TV. The time and date has not been conˇrmed yet. This is a major breakthrough to have it seen again by the American public. We only have today two shows that the public can watch on TV.: The Philadelphia National Championship, which is seen on NBC right after the Macyís Thanksgiving Day Parade - a perfect time slot in that millions and millions of young people see our sport; the other show is Westminster ,which is aired live. We probably do not realize just how many people came into the sport by seeing a dog show on TV. This might be a large reason we are seeing fewer and fewer new people coming into the sport. We have fewer inner city shows being held any longer. Detroit, Philadelphia, Eastern and others can no longer afford to hold shows in the major cities of the US. Also the gate is down quite dramatically at nearly all shows. This coming year, the Santa Barbara Kennel Club is not going to charge a gate. Although Santa Barbara is one of the most afˇuent areas of the US, the feeling is people are always attracted to something for free. Hopefully it will attract more people to come see the show, which is held in such a beautiful setting and will show the public what a genteel family sport showing dogs can be. Hopefully more people attending the show will also increase the sales of the vendors. The entry year by year has continued to grow and this is in a time when most of our larger shows have dropped in entries. In 2003, the Best Bred By competition was initiated. This turned the show

into a showcase for the American breeders. It has been a major factor in drawing the large entries that have made the show what it is today. Roger Hartinger had the honor this year of judging the Best Bred By in show. Roger and his wife Paula started in the sport as breeders of Standard Schnauzers before becoming handlers. This year the Bouvier, Ch. Quicheís Luck Be A Lady, bred by Elaine & Louise Paquette became Best Bred By in Show. This Canadian kennel has produced so many big winning Bouviers for as long as I can remember. In 2008 this kennel won the Herding Bred By with Ch. Quicheís Demetrius, which did such big winning on both sides of the border. Each year seven outstanding breeders are honored representing each group. These seven represent hundreds of years of breeding and have been the backbone of the sport. This year Gwen THE DOG NEWS ANNUAL • 131

DeMilta and daughter, Carissa DeMilta Shimpeno, of Alisaton Dobermans were named Breeder of the Year, 2014. Seeing both Gwen and Carissa week after week handling many top dogs, it sometimes overshadows our vision of the great breeders that they are. Ron Menaker had the honor of judging BIS this year. How ˇtting since it was Ron that made this show a reality and developed it and was Show Chair for so many of those years. Ron also has been show chair for Westminster and Tuxedo Park Kennel Clubs. The AKC beneˇted greatly from his years as Chairman of the Board. Combining a great business sense with a great understanding of the sport, his leadership has greatly enhanced the sport in so many areas. The lineup for BIS was certainly a very challenging assignment when looking at the records of the seven different dogs competing. The Field Spaniel, Portuguese Water Dog, Skye Terrier and Old English Sheepdog are all the top winning dogs of their breeds in history. The Portie, OES and Skye were the number one, two and three dogs in America for 2014. The Bloodhound was number one hound. Just up until October 31st, the seven group winners had accounted for 268 BISís and 107 Reserve Bests. The Standard Poodle, Ch. Afterglow Maverick Sabre, which now resides in Peru, won the entire World Challenge in 2013 and BIS at Crufts in 2014. Just getting out of the breed this dog had to reign over the Non Sporting dog and the winner of PCA and Westminster. I am sure Ron would agree this had to be one of the most, if not the most, challenging assignments ever. I am not sure anyone can see that any of these dogs is better than the others. It really comes down to the performance on the evening and personal priorities. One mistake on the part of the dog or handler can eliminate the entry from gaining the top spot or even reserve. All seven dogs and handlers were at the top of their form making the decision even harder. The Skye Terrier, Ch. Cragsmoor Good Time Charlie, needed to put on a stellar performance. ìCharlieî is an extremely great representative of the breed, but he has to be the most consistent show dog that the breed has ever seen. Having been interested in the breed for 50 years, he is the most consistent in the show ring I have ever seen. Earlier in the week, I mentioned to Larry, his handler, how great CharCONTINUED ON PAGE 132

lie was showing and he replied that he liked the carpeting. Twice last spring, I had awarded him BIS and on those days it was on lumpy grass footing and he still performed greatly. One has to realize that Skye Terriers are not generally show machines like most Terriers are. Being a long, low breed if they are not totally on, it can cause their topline to sag a bit even when standing still. Larry Cornelius has to be congratulated on keeping Charlie showing better than any Skye in over 50 years. Charlie just recently broke the record set by Ch. Cragsmoor Buddy Goodman. ìBuddyî had just two years ago broken the record held by Ch. Jacinthe de Ricelaine and her record was set in the mid sixties. This unforgettable bitch produced ìSusie,î Ch. Glamoor Good News, which went BIS at Westminster in 1969. This was the year of the terrible blizzard and Walter Goodman had to carry ìSusieî to the Garden since no cars were moving in New York City. This victory at AKC/ Eukanuba came much easier for Larry than it did Walter. I remember when Matt and Gene got their ˇrst Skye from Walter. I am conˇdent even they never dreamed they would build an empire of the breed. Many people believed nobody could do what Walter accomplished with this rare breed. Walter won 99 BIS and Matt and Gene are just

a few shy of this record. How ˇtting it was that they were the AKC Terrier Breeders of the Year. Walter would be so proud that his legendary breeding is being continued that his mother, Adele, started in 1935. So now 80 years later, the breeding line continues. Victor Malzoni, Jr. has to be credited with being a sponsor of both Charlie and Buddy. Without his support these campaigns would not have been possible. It is interesting to note that three of the placements in the Terrier group were dogs co-owned or owned by Victor. He also co-owns the Smooth, Dodger, who was third and had just won Best Veteran in Show. Fourth went to his Cairn, Ch. Hjohooís Save Hjour Love for Me. This Cairn bitch, ìLexiî, has built a great record considering she had to take a back seat in 2013 to her kennel mate ìSkyî the legendary Wire Fox, also co-owned by Victor. Karen Wilson, who judged the group, comes from Cairns so she must have been pleased to place a Cairn. Several other good breeders of Skye Terriers also started in the breed from Glamoor stock. Reserve Best went to the Portie, ìMatisseî. Words cannot express the achievements of this great machine of a dog, including Best at this show last year. This dog has given so much pleasure for two years to the entire sport. Just several days before Eukanuba, I was judging and in the ˇnal lineup as I turned to walk up to examine Matisse, he had struck a pose. I stood a little longer and even walked up to him a bit slower than normal. I only wished I could have pulled out my phone and taken a picture. I am sure the Field Rep would have come running into the ring asking if I had lost my mind. Michael Scott, his handler, and his breeders and owners have to be con-

gratulated and thanked for the great pleasure Matisse has given the sport. How wonderful it is that Matisse has already made his mark as a great sire. His puppies clearly dominated the National this past year. I have a hard time realizing that several of the handlers in the BIS lineup have become our senior handlers. I am referring to Michael Scott, Larry Cornelius and Luke Ehricht. I have known all these handlers since they were teenagers just starting out in the sport. Now they are all considered old timers in the handling ranks. The other three handlers, Elizabeth Nelson, daughter of Laurie and Larry Fenner, Heather Helmer and Colton Johnson, even though so young to the ranks, have become our leading handlers today. Colton and Heather are also the co-breeders of the dogs they won the group with. It is so rewarding that some of the younger handlers have become top breeders as well. Luke also is the breeder of the Shih Tzu. By the time this is being read, the panel for 2015 will have been announced. This show continues to grow year after year and I am conˇdent 2015 will be bigger and better than ever. There will be some changes next year that will make it more enjoyable for all. It is the only large show in the States where the entry continues to grow. Most of our largest shows have seen a decline in entries. Even the magniˇcent Palm Springs show saw about a 10% decline this year. Hopefully some of our larger shows can continue to hold the large numbers. This year the AKC/Eukanuba saw 806 competing in the Owner Handler Series ˇnal. This was way up from last year. Most people never realize just how much detail goes into organizing a show of this magnitude. First and foremost, Eukanuba has to be thanked for their generous sponsorship. Vickie Seiler and Jason Taylor work on this project day in and day out to bring it all together. Each year Michael Canalizo keeps the show improving with new innovations. The AKC and Eukanuba work closely with the all breed clubs preceding the show. The unsung hero is Paula Spector. To many of us she is known as Saint Paula. Nobody can comprehend the hours of coordination she puts into organizing the Delegates Meeting and booking all the hotel rooms for hundreds and hundreds of people. Just alone dealing with several different hotels is not easy task. I hope everyone will mark their calendars for the AENC next year, which will be held December 12th and 13th, 2015.

ack to normal is the theme of this yearís 100 CLUB additions as two exhibits--both males-- have achieved that very distinctive honor. Both are from breeds heretofore unrepresented on this luminous list and one not only entered the 100 Club but in fact was awarded over 200 All-breed bests in a record-breaking year. I refer of course to the number one dog in America for the year 2014 the Portuguese Water Dog GCH Claircreek Impression De Matisse, which was awarded a total of over 200 all-breeds during his career, and to the Old English Sheepdog GCH Bugabooís Picture Perfect, the number two dog point ways for 2014. After last yearís record-breaking number of ˇve additions, which of course included the Black Standard Poodle dog Ch. Jasetís Satisfaction, it is fascinating to note that the Portie is the ˇrst male exhibit to have entered the 200 Club joining Shannon the Scottie, Mystique the German Shepherd and Lacey the Wire Fox Terrier. Hereís the story about Matisse: GCh. Claircreek Impression De Matisse Sire: GCh. Pouch Cove Caribe Dam: Ch. Claircreek Femme Fatale Bred By: Donna Gottdenker Owned By: Milan Lint, Peggy Helming & Donna Gottdenker Presented By: Michael and Michelle Scott CONTINUED ON PAGE 190

Michael and Matisse kicked off their incredible journey just over two years ago, in the last couple months of 2012. Throughout 2013 Matisse garnered 94 Bests in Show, 19 Reserve Bests, 135 Group Firsts, Best in Show at the AKC Eukanuba Invitational and the very thrilling Group victory at the Garden. This propelled Matisse to 2013’s Number Two Dog All Breeds, Number One Working Dog, Number One PWD and the top winning PWD of all time. The momentum intensified in 2014, where Matisse won an incredible 134 Bests, 23 Reserve Bests and 180 Groups Firsts, including another Group win at Westminster and his second PWDCA National Specialty Best of Breed. Matisse ended 2014 as the Number One Dog All Breeds and the top winning male show dog in US history. To date Matisse has accumulated 237 Bests, 48 Reserve Bests and 333 Working Group wins. And to top it off, at the 2014 PWDCA National Specialty Matisse’s offspring won Winners Dog, Winners Bitch, Reserve Winners Dog, Reserve Winners Bitch and Best Puppy in Show. While the winning has certainly been a thrill, the reception that Matisse has generated has been extremely gratifying. And here’s the scoop about Swagger: GCh. Bugaboo’s Picture Perfect Sire GCh. Bugaboo’s Big Shot Dam Ch. Bugaboo’s Georgie Girl Bred by Colton & Heather Johnson Owned by Ron Scott and Debbie Burke and Colton & Heather Johnson Presented by Colton Johnson 2013 Number 1 Herding Dog And Number 10 Dog Among All Breeds 75 Shows with 28,954 Dogs Defeated 23 All Breed Best In Shows 17 Reserve Best In Shows 56 Group Firsts Best In Specialty Show OESCA National & Top Twenty And Regional Winner 2014 Number 1 Herding Dog & Number Two Among All Breeds 153 Shows with 118,500 Dogs Defeated 88 All Breed Best In Shows 33 Reserve Beat In Shows 147 Group Firsts Top Winning OLD ENGLISH SHEEPDOG In The History Of The Breed.

ell that’s the story about the two top winners for year 2014, both of which became members of at least the 100 CLUB. Behind the scenes however is the well known fact that as competitive as these two exhibits were the degree of sportsmanship between the two teams of owners and handlers was incredibly high and should set the standard in the future for people campaigning not only exceptionally fine exhibits such as Matisse and Swagger but as examples at every level of competition. Hats off to the records for sure--even more kudos for the manner in which these campaigns were conducted. IT IS INTERESTING TO NOTE that FIVE new exhibits, three of them bitches, have earned the distinction of having become new members of the 100 Club for the year 2013. The idea for this distinctive Club was developed by the late Sam Lawrence, who of course was the sponsor of many a top Best In Show award winner. Never before in the history of this recognition and since such records have been kept have five exhibits been so acknowledged. This year two of the winners are from breeds heretofore not represented in the past - a Miniature Pinscher and a German Wirehaired Pointer - while two of the five inductees were owned in whole or part by the same person, the GWP and the Wire Fox Terrier bitch. The victorious inductees, which accumulated 100 All Breed Best in Shows, for the year 2013, are the Top Winning Male Standard Poodle in the breed’s history, GCh. Jaset’s Satisfaction, bred by Chris Bailey and Sandra Tomkins, co-owned by Michele Molnar and Jamie Danburg and handled by Ann Rairigh; Miniature Pinscher bitch GCh Ch Marlex Classic Red Glare bred by Carole Mohr-Rio, co-owned by Leah Monte and Armando Angelbello and handled by co-owner Armando Angelbello; the number one dog All-Breeds for the year 2013 the Wire Fox Terrier bitch GCh Ch After All Painting the Sky bred by A.J. Pertuit Jr, and Betty Seaton, co-owned by Victor Malzoni, Jr., Torie Steele, Mary and Scott Olund and Diane Ryan, and handled by Gabriel and Ivonne Rangel; the number one dog all-breed for the year 2012 the German Wirehaired Pointer INT, Br. Am GCh Ch Mt. View’s Ripsnorter Silver Charm bred by Claire and Kelly Wisch and Helen Witt, handled by Phil and Amy Booth and lastly but hardly least the Standard Poodle Bitch GCh Ch Brighton Lakeridge Encore bred by L’Dyne Brennan and Debra FergusonJones owned by Martin and Toni Sosnoff’s Atalanta Kennel and handled by Timothy Brazier. Quite an impressive list of long time and devoted dog people who have played such an important role in the development and continuation of the competitive world of showing the dog and in influencing people to participate in making people more aware of the need to perpetuate the virtues of the purebred dog in America today.

T

he Black Standard Poodle, whose call name is London, was the Number One Poodle of All Varieties as well as the Number One Non Sporting Dog in 2012, and was Number Nine among all breeds in 2012 and 2013. The Min Pin whose call name is Classie -GCh Ch Marlex Classic Red Glare- first came to my attention when a prominent All-Breed judge called to tell me of her existence after she adjudicated upon it for the first time. She thence accumulated 120 all-breed bests and is only 4 years old today. Additionally she has been awarded 24 Best in Specialty Shows including National Specialty wins with 64 Bests in 2013 and 122 Group Firsts. Min Pins are considered one of the more difficult breeds to exhibit since they certainly tend to have a mind of their own but even when being “naughty” as Classie can be, her handler Armando Angelbello, who has such a long and successful background with this breed, has been able to control her and gotten her to display true Min Pin form so fittingly described in the breed standard as the King of Toys. From the moment Classie made her ring debut at the age of 6 months many judges and fanciers took notice of her. She has been a showgirl of outstanding breed type and her movement and special character took the ring and the fancy by storm as she never looked back. Her record-breaking show career has been a joy for all concerned with her and in the process she broke a 50-year-old breed record to become the top Best in Show winning Min Pin in history. Armando is quoted as saying about her, “We are told to dream Big, but Classie taught us that she could deliver even Bigger--this has been the ride of a lifetime!” The next two dogs to have earned the privilege of joining the 100 Club have as a common denominator two major factorsthe first is that both were Number One Among All-Breeds for the years 2012 and 2013 and were owned or co-owned by the same individual, Victor Malzoni, Jr. of Hampton Court in Sao Paulo, Brazil. How unusual and rare is it for anyone to own consecutive top dogs all-breed much less two different breeds exhibited by two different handlers that’s for sure. I hesitate to call this a first ever but unless Gloria and Nat Reese did so in the 50’s or 60’s or the Lawrences did so later on this is prob-

ably a first ever accomplishment, which really shows a devotion to the sport by Victor Malzoni, Jr. exhibited by few people alive today. The first of the two, the German Wirehaired Pointer whose call name is Oakley, began his show career in the US in 2011 although he finished to his American Championship at the GWPCA at 12 months in 2007. Prior to that time beginning in 2010 he was exhibited in Brazil and South America and was used in Mr. Malzoni’s breeding program for GWP’s. In June of 2011 the dog earned his first Best but like many a great show dog his spirit of independence and desire to have fun made showing him quite a challenge. His

GCh. Jaset’s Satisfaction

performances became more dependable in early 2012 and his performances in the ring drew fans for him wherever he went. By the end of 2012 he had 73 All-Breed Bests and then in early 2013 he became the 37th dog in the history of AKC to earn 100 or more Bests with the crowning glory being his 3rd National Specialty under no less of an authority than Joy Brewster. Oakley then went back to Victor in Brazil where he is retired and living the life of glory at Hampton Court. He is and was a once in a lifetime dog for all involved. Oakley was immediately followed up by Sky, the ginger Wire Bitch handled pri-

marily by Gabriel Rangel, who handles many of Mr. Malzoni’s terriers here in the States and as noted was the Number One all-breed for 2013. Her glorious career abetted by her association with long time successful WFT breeder in the States Torie Steele was topped of course by her amazing and well deserved win at the Montgomery Kennel Club this past year. Winner of 127 Bests in Show including the very prestigious AENC in 2012, her wins have been highlighted by recognized terrier breeders and exhibitors the worldwide. She was heralded by many people before she even entered the show ring and let me tell you she lived up to her advance notices and in fact outdid the raves of those who had seen her early on. The last of the achievers to be reported upon is Ally the incredible and widely acclaimed White Standard bitch. Her greatness was recognized early on as she was awarded Best in Show from the classes at the prestigious and highly respected Poodle Club of America. This is now the second time the Atalanta team of the Sosnoffs and Tim Brazier have entered the 100 Hall of Fame-the first being with the Standard Poodle Ch. Randenn Tristar Affection. Toni and Martin Sosnoff have been long time concerned breeders of Poodles and together with Tim Brazier form one of the most respected and trusted teams of dog owners and handlers the dog world has developed in the modern dog world age. Teams such as the Rangel-Malzoni and the Booth-Malzoni, Jr. and the Brazier-Sosnoff are hard to come by and develop but in a sense it is their relationships that help to keep the sport going and alive and kicking. Considering the backgrounds of the dogs involved and their owners and handlers and of course their breeders, all of whom are steeped in the long term values and traditions of our sport, one must conclude that our conformation world is growing stronger and strengthening the very foundations upon which our sport was originally founded.

INDEED THE TOTAL NUMBER of allbreeds Beckham has to his credit so far is 122 and that was with limited campaigning in 2012 to boot. The fact is that he was actively campaigned by the well known and respected husband-wife team of Linda and Michael Pitts for only two years--2012 and 2011 and six months into 2012. He has been exhibited sparingly since then but conquered all at the very prestigious 2013 Spaniel Club held in Knoxville, Tennessee to the thrill of his co-owners Bruce Van Deman, Carolee Douglas, Mary Walker, Cindy Cassidy and breeder and co-owner Linda Moore. Just to give you an idea of the background and breeding experience of this consortium of owners a total of 120 years combines the experience and devotion of these people in and to the breed of the Spaniel (Cocker) Black. What an achievement and what a history behind this dog!! Don’t you agree? And then combine that fact with an exuberant and magnificent show animal and handlers extraordinaire of this breed and variety and success is basically assured and most predictable. D Magazine warmly welcomes Beckham into this group of illustrious and famous show dogs! And now to prove how imperfect I actually am is the fact that I failed to list the achievements of the Giant Schnauzer, only the second exhibit from the Working Group--the first being the Doberman Cryptonite, as a Member of the 100 Club. I refer of course to Ch. Galilee’s Pure of Spirit a bitch which was the number one exhibit all-breed in 2008 and certainly one of the great show dogs of her time if not of the century. She earned the honor of the 100 Club membership in 2008 which was the year she was awarded the Working Group at the Big W in a performance which to this day has the aficionados in awe! The bond between this bitch and her handler Taffy McFadden was one of the all-time relationships which existed between dog and handler but who amongst us can resist the talent and charm of Taffy? I know I can’t! She was owned by Maryann Biscaglia and Mary Hayes as well as the renowned husband wife team of Carla

and Joe Sanchez in the latter part of her career. Bred by Maryann she was a one of a kind exhibit and I apologize to all for having failed to report this achievement when it first occurred. Malachy was the only exhibit to be so honored in 2011 and one has to go back to 2005 when the last Peke earned this distinction. That dog exhibited by David as well was Eng. and Am. Ch. Yakee If Only. David discovered the latest top winner from the PalaceGarden Pekes whilst judging the Ventura Pekingese Championship show in the UK in May of 2008. Unlike in America where David is occupationally ineligible to judge, the British encourage talented and experienced breeders from all over the world to judge at the shows they hold. This was a great experience for David as the entry was 117 dogs, the largest entry of the year next to Crufts! A lesson perhaps for AKC to digest as years ago professional handlers were permitted to judge Specialty shows in the US. Perhaps our own priorities in this area should be reevaluated if indeed it is the intent of those running these shows to truly find the best breeding stock instead of being so concerned with filling judging slots with less experienced breeders. Most of David’s winners at this show were PalaceGarden Pekes and when he got home he contacted the Smiths and asked them to send him a dog after carefully researching the pedigrees. He asked them if they had any stock available and in June of 2009 Malachy arrived as a five-month-old puppy sight unseen by David. The rest is of course history as this little dog so correct in type, small, compact and unadulterated, shouting Pekingese arrived at Newark Airport. To say that Malachy stole the hearts of the American dog show world is to understate the case and his Best in Show at the famed Morris and Essex Show clearly cemented him as one of the great Pekes of our time. Co-owned by Sandra Middlebrooks and Iris Love, with David, both ladies are wonderful clients with whom to work. Ever mindful of the

importance the role of handler plays in exhibiting dogs, Sandra Middlebrooks and her husband Butler rely on David’s decisions, always saying, “David, whatever you think is best-you know what you are doing.” An attitude other clients would do well to learn from as Mrs. Middlebrooks has evolved into one of the premier sponsors of the best of purebred dogs. What a team--what a Peke-- and you better believe there will be more to come--for sure. For the first time since the establishment of the 100 Club a Smooth Fox Terrier has accomplished this incredible feat. Becoming the 29th exhibit to accomplish this incredible feat GCH J’Cobe Kemosabe Vigilante Justice, affectionately called Dodger, became the 29th dog in history to achieve the esteemed honor of 100 or more Best in Shows. Indeed this dog, which was also the Number One exhibit All-Breed for the year 2010, actually recorded 105 All-Breed Bests. A grandson of the recordbreaking Ch. Broxden Rio Oso Best Dressed (Tux), his pedigree is one to simply blow you away, with some of the most outstanding show and stud dogs and dams dominating throughout. One of the things which makes Dodger’s feat all the more phenomenal is the fact that today in America the Smooth Fox Terrier breed is one of the strongest in the world as specials class after specials class are marked by unusually high quality. Certainly the highlight of any Montgomery is to watch Smooths where in 2008 Dodger finished his championship by being awarded Winners Dog and Best of Winners at the Specialty that year and was Best of Breed at Montgomery the following year, too. He broke the record for Smooth Fox Terriers in August, which was previously set at 70. But Dodger certainly could not have accomplished his incredible feats alone and fortunately for all involved a team was formed headed by Amy and Phil Booth, who formed and created his amazing career. Tux was brilliantly handled by Amy and so it was only natural for her to continue with his Grandson, which collaboration resulted in Amy as coowner and handler with Howard

THE DOG NEWS ANNUAL • 192

and Sandra Hoffen as co-owners, as they were with Tux as well. Now at just 3 1/2 years of age everyone involved is looking forward to contributing to the Broxden/J’Cobe/ Kemosabe breeding program. Bill Dalling of J’Cobe and Stacy Turner of Kemosabe Smooths, the breeders, have combined with the Hoffens and Booths to form one of the most formidable teams of owners and breeders in the sport of dogs. DOG NEWS enthusiastically welcomes Dodger and his team as members of the DOG NEWS 100 Club.

and healthily. Her owners Toni and Martin Sosnoff of Atalanta poodle fame have been long time concerned breeders of the Poodle and together with Tim and Yes have formed one of the most formidable and trustworthy teams of people and dogs to have been developed in the modern dogworld age. Teams like this are what help perpetuate our sport in the long run, and I am happy to say that the “Sadie team” falls into a similar category as the team developed through the “Yes” relationship.

A

s the first decade of the millennium century came to a close two more exhibits, both American bred bitches, became members of the prestigious and highly regarded 100 Club bringing the total number of dog membership to 27! Both the Standard Poodle Ch. Randenn Tristar Affirmation (whose call name is Yes) and the Scottish Terrier Ch. Roundtown Mercedes of Maryscot (whose call name is Sadie) were handled by two of the more respected and expert of professional handlers whose reputations in their breed and group are of what legends are made. Both Tim Brazier, Yes’ handler, and Gabriel Rangel, Sadie’s handler, are among the most respected dog men of our day, and it is particularly fitting that these honors have been earned and recognized by these teams of handlers and dogs. And as important and necessary as these recognitions are let us not forget the people and the history of both the breeders and owners of these two great exhibits. Yes is the fourth Standard Poodle to earn the bragging rights to be called a member of this great club preceded in time by her grandfather Ch. Lake Cove That’s My Boy and her great-great-grandfather Ch. Whisperwind On Carousel. This kind of amazing use of line breeding by her breeders Randy Garren and Dennis McCoy (and co-breeders the Laceys) is a solid example of what dog breeding should be all about – a careful selection and understanding of lines and genes which result in improving a breed carefully, selectively

S

adie is now the second Scottish Terrier to join the club, both bitches, and of course has set her mark both nationally and internationally. Competently and ably conditioned and handled by Gabriel Rangel she is an outstanding show animal whose presence is expected to be continued in the near future for sure. Gabriel of course has matured into one of the most respected and consulted terrier men in America, if not the world, whose opinion of a dog is solicited near and far. Combine this with the acknowledged breeding talents of Anstamm Kennels and Mary O’Neal (Anstamm of course being the team of Cindy Cooke and Buffie Stamm) and you have magical results insofar as the breeding of Scotties are concerned. And on the subject of magical of course are Sadie’s owners, the Mussers, Amelia and Dan. To say that they are two of the nicest people in the sport is to understate the situation; but of interest, of course, is the background of Mr. Musser whose uncle George Hartman was one of the most respected judges in America in the ‘40s and a director of AKC as well. Considering the backgrounds of these dogs, their owners and their breeders all of which and whom are steeped in the long term values and traditions of our sport one would have to conclude that not only is our conformation world growing stronger by encouraging dog show competitions but that the dogs and teams of people associated with them are adding allure and strengthening the foundation of the sport itself. Wel-

come “Yes” and “Sadie” to the 100 Club! In 2009 the first Pointer and the fourth Sporting Dog in American history joined the list of dog show exhibits to become a 100 Club member. Of particular interest in the case of Ch. Cookieland Seasyde Hollyberry, now the top winning Sporting dog of all time in terms of Bests, is the comparatively short period of time she had been campaigned in order to achieve this amazing accomplishment. Holly as she is called began her show career in late 2007 and was not campaigned in earnest until March of 2008. This is probably the shortest time period in our history for an exhibit to have gained this monumental honor. And candidly up until the AKC/ Eukanuba National Event she had never been flown to compete in a dog show! Imagine an American dog not only winning close to 90 shows in one year but also competing to become the number two exhibit all-breed without having earned one advantage mile for the handlers Michael and Michelle Scott until the last month of the year. That’s got to tell you the regard with which Holly has been held by the American judging community. Watching Holly in action in the show ring is a very special experience as she never has for one moment let handler Mike Scott down. But as importantly is her attitude out of the show arena. Pointers do not have the reputation for being the steadiest of animals in crowded social situations. As a former owner of the breed I feel safe in making that generalized kind of statement. But I can tell you without hesitation this is not the case with Holly. After her glorious, well-earned and deserved National win she was introduced to the throngs of people celebrating the two-day event at the after show party. To the great credit of her breeders Cheryl Laduc, A. Cantor & A. Walker and of course her owners Sean and Tammy McCarthy and Helyne Medeiros, she walked into this buzzing room, took one look around and owned the place! Visiting table after table and one celebrant after the other as though they were long lost friends, while totally off her leash, she made friends of everyone. If ever one doubted a dog’s ability to captivate and mesmerize a roomful of over 200 CONTINUED ON PAGE 194

partying people just keep in mind the story of Holly on that night. When I wrote in the 2007 ‘D’ “100 Club” article that many exhibits were on the threshold of entering the elusive “100 Club”, the toy poodle Ch. Smash JP Win a Victory with “only” 38 all-breed bests in show in 2006, was not high in my mind as a likely entrant. But Vikki, as she is called, defied all odds by winning 67—yes, that’s right, 67!— all breed bests in 2007, becoming the 23rd exhibit in AKC history to earn this coveted distinction. Furthermore, she is the first and only exhibit to achieve this distinction since 2005. She now has a total of 105 all breed bests as we go to press. And guess what… this incredible show animal and truly great toy poodle is still going strong! Of interest to many people, of course, is that AKC did not officially award the Best in Show ribbon until 1925, so that the span is over an actual period of 82 years in which, including Vikki’s award, only a total of 22 other exhibits have earned such a distinction. PERSONALLY, I AM PARTICULARLY PLEASED with her achievements, since I spotted her in the classes as a mere puppy and immediately asked Kaz Hosaka, her handler, about her. The rest, of course, is history. Bred in Japan by the most successful of breeders, Yukiko Omura of Smash Kennels, whose toy poodles are internationally acclaimed. She is an unstoppable show dog with an exquisite attitude. Her very presence demands your attention, and to deny her is indeed a most difficult task. Of course, Vikki is handled by one of the master handlers and craftsmen of our time, the aforementioned Kaz Hosaka. Originally mentored by Annie and Jim Clark, Kaz has earned the role of mentor himself! Today Kaz helps set the world standard in the presentation and exhibition of all poodles— toy, miniature, and standard. He is a unique, loving caretaker of all his dogs, and in my opinion, one of the leaders within the professional handling community.

his having been said, my not yet mentioning the owner of Vikki until now is done for a particular reason. The owner, of course, is Ron Scott. The reason I wanted to write about Vikki and Kaz first was to emphasize the dog aspect of the “100 Club.” The human and practical side involves one of the great (and I use the word “great” deliberately) owner-handler teams of our time. You know as well as I that it takes more than just money to put a dog over. How many people do we all know who have attempted to buy their way into our sport, only to fall flat on their you know what? Ron Scott has been involved for years and has remained committed to both dogs and to Kaz for what seems an eternity. This team has developed an unusual rapport and a friendship grounded in a loyalty hard to find in most client-handler relationships. Ron and Kaz stand out as a team for us all to admire and respect. “D” Magazine warmly welcomes Vikki, Kaz, and Ron to the prestigious “100 Club!” English and American Champion Yakee If Only, earned the distinct honor of becoming a member of the 100 Club! The years 2004 & 2006 saw no new entrants, but in 2005, Jeffrey, as this exhibit is called, racked up his 124th All-Breed Best in Show, to the delight of his owner, Kit Woodruff, and his handler, David Fitzpatrick. Lest one wonder about this dog’s credentials, keep in mind that he was number one exhibit All-Breed for the year 2005 and became the first Toy exhibit in history to defeat over 100,000 other exhibits in one year. In 2004, Jeffrey was number 2 AllBreed but had the most All-Breed Bests for the calendar year, with 58. His 64 All-Breed Bests in 2005 set a new record for Toy Dogs in a single year. And, yes, I failed to point out that these feats were accomplished in less than a two-year time period. His first show was late in January of ’04, when, of course, he was awarded Best, and this past January Jeffrey just turned four years of age! Those are some pretty incredible fig-

T

ures to appreciate, but his lineage is equally as dazzling to every respectable breeder. This is particularly true in these days of the so-called “designer dogs,” whose breeders are attempting to pass off their own creations as purebreds, when, in fact, anyone involved in any form of animal husbandry is aware that these dogs are purely of a mixed-breed lineage. Let’s talk a little about Jeffrey and the fact that his sire, Eng. Ch. Yakee Dangerous Liaisons, was the Crufts 2003 Best in Show winner, and that his kennelmate, Ch. Yakee Leaving Me Breathless (Les, as he was called), broke into the 100 Club in 2003 as well. And if you were wondering whether there is a common denominator in both of these dogs’ pedigrees, the answer is a resounding yes. The exhibit Eng. Ch. Yakee For Your Eyes Only is that individual. The success as breeders of the owners of the Yakee kennel prefix, Albert (Bert) Easdon and Phillip Martin, is world-renowned. Nigel Aubrey-Jones and Bill Taylor introduced me to Bert years and years ago at a show in the U.K. The Yakee kennel is located in Glasgow, Scotland, and the over-25 years of successfully breeding Pekingese is the hallmark of their dog life achievements. But as we all know, it takes an awful lot to put a top-winning dog over in America. Kit Woodruff, who is a native of Colorado and who presently lives outside of Houston, has been a patron and owner of Pekes (and other dogs) for more than the past 10 years. She wisely selected as her handler the longtime involved, knowledgeable and very well liked professional handler David Fitzpatrick to work with her. This was to both show Jeffrey and to develop her own breeding program. David I have known from his working days—first with Hermine Cleaver and then Mrs. Walter (Kay) Jeffords. While he started working for Hermine at the tender age of 14, it was in the Jeffords era that he fully blossomed and gained the dog knowledge for which he is so well known. With over 250 dogs of various breeds to work with at Mrs. Jeffords’ famed Chinatown Kennels (the great majority of which were Pekes), he became steeped in understanding animal husbandry to a

THE DOG NEWS ANNUAL • 194

degree few people in the dog world can lay claim to. This kind of invaluable exposure is what makes him a true dog person, entitled to at least one Group should he decide to judge, wouldn’t one think! As for Jeffrey, when David first saw him, he was fearful that in America he would not be understood because he was “too Pekey and too typey.” As far as David was concerned, this dog had nothing generic about him, but was, in fact, the perfect representative of what makes a Peke “different than any other dog.” He was delightedly surprised and happy to be wrong in these fears, as quite obviously, the American judges took to Jeffrey as one of their own. Welcome to the 100 Club, Jeffrey, David and Kit! IN 2003, Ch. Yakee Leaving Me Breathless At Franshaw won his 100th AllBreed Best in Show award in an amazing 17-month period of time. “Les,” as this British import is called, is truly a storybook dog. Since his “breathless” debut in February 2002 in New York, where he was awarded Best of Breed at the Garden, he became the first Pekingese to break a 45-year-old record held by the famous Ch. Chik T’Sun of Caversham for the most All-Breed Best in Shows to be awarded a Pekingese. As of this writing, Les has a total of 113 All-Breed Bests. Interestingly, his breeders, A. Easdon and P. Martin, showed and breed the Crufts 2002 Best in Show winner as well. The Yakee Kennel prefix is known worldwide as one of the most respected breeding programs ever designed. Les has only added to this reputation as the cognoscenti as well as the lay individual continue to recognize this exhibit’s outstanding attribute. Owned by John Shaw and Maria Francis and handled by Hiram Stewart, this team of individuals combines to make one of the most formidable owner/handler teams in America today. Under Hiram’s expert guidance and conditioning, Les’s rapid rise was eagerly anticipated. That this exhibit succeeded in reaching the pinnacle of success it did came as no surprise to those of us in the dog world who recognize quality on both ends of the leash.

ithout too much fear of being contradicted, I think it is safe to say that the additions that achieved membership in the coveted DOG NEWS 100 Club in the year 2002 are two of the bestknown exhibits to have ever competed on the American dog show circuit. Both were the Top Winning dog of the year in terms of points accumulated—the Bichon Frise in 2000 and the Kerry Blue terrier in 2001. I refer, of course, to Ch. Special Times Just Right, the Westminster and AKC/Eukanuba 2001 victor, and Ch. Torum’s Scarf Michael, the Crufts 2000 and Montgomery 2001 victor. Both dogs were and remain internationally recognized and have had myriad American followers both within and outside of the Fancy. With the growth of the sport being encouraged by continuously growing TV coverage in many homes, both “JR”— the Bichon—and “Mick”—the Kerry— have become as familiar as sports or movie star names. Let’s start with JR. When he was awarded Best at Westminster it, was his 98th all-breed achievement. He was exhibited three more times and won his 100th Best at the prestigious Long Beach June show in a fiercely fought competition against Mick. He was exhibited one more time at the first AKC/Eukanuba Invitational, where once again he prevailed. While Mick did not compete, as most of you very well know, the breed and group competition at this show was highly competitive for not only were there great “bragging” rights involved, but both the breeder and owner received monetary awards of over $25,000 each! JR was the sort of showdog who never let his handler, Scott Sommer, down in the ring. He was always up and totally reliant as a performer—indeed, some may say overly extroverted, but this was said positively. Indeed, this very attitude is strongly supported by the Bichon Frise standard itself. Eleanor McDonald, who had the good fortune to see him win the Westminster event before, sadly, passing away prior to the Invitational, bred JR. Unfortunately another co-owner, Flavio Werneck,

W

met an untimely death three months prior to the Big W. The happy news, of course, is that the third co-owner—and if truth be known, the force behind JR’s career—was the gracious and lovely Cecelia Ruggles. Ceil and Scott have formed one of the most powerful and respected owner/ handler teams within the history of our modern day sport, and JR now lives, most happily, at home with Scott in Houston. Mick, of course, is a British import who had mesmerized the dog show goers in the U.K. His victory at Crufts capped his career cross the pond. As of this writing he has 109 all-breed Best in Shows and is still being exhibited, seemingly on a somewhat random basis. He is now six years old and was first shown in the States when he was four. He captured the hearts of most American terrier people in his initial California outing and continues to captive people today. On occasion his performance may have been somewhat erratic; however, when he is on, he is tough to beat. His handler, who has done an incredible job of presenting him here in America, is Bill McFadden. When Marilu Hansen brought Mick over from England, there was some talk that Mick might not have been able to withstand the pressure of American campaigning. Obviously the British show circuit and ours is totally different, and the American circuit much more demanding. Nonetheless, and I believe through the good works of Bill, the dog basically held up 95 percent of the time. Personally, I am not too sure how successful other American handlers would have been with Mick, since I saw him in England on numerous occasions—sometimes he showed well; others not so well. And that takes nothing away from the British handler Geoff Corish, who did a great job with him, particularly since the dog was truly a housedog of breeder Ron Ramsay and his family. It’s one thing when a dog stays with the handler all of the time; another when it’s brought the day of the show or a day before for trimming. There is no doubt that JR and Mick will go down in history, both in the U.K. and in the States, as two of our greatest show dogs of all time. And perhaps even more importantly to the sport of purebred dogs is the fact that both are proving to be great sires, thereby only improving considerably the future for both the Bichon and the Kerry Blue terrier.

tioned above have now retired from handling and will now assume the role of professional judge under the American Kennel Club. We all wish them well in their new endeavors. AS OF THE ORIGINAL WRITING, only 15 exhibits have been awarded 100 or more All Breed Best in Shows in the United States. Of this number, four have actually been awarded 200 or more all-breed bests. Within the last several years and since 1990, the ranks of those dogs and bitches achieving these astronomical Best in Shows have practically doubled. Through 1990, only two exhibits had 200 or more Bests and five others had 100 or more wins. Since 1990 two more exhibits surpassed the 200 high water mark and four others went over the 100 figure! Considering the tremendous increase in the number of AllBreed championship events now being held in America—in 1994, there were 1,220 such shows—and with the ease of modern transportation, it wouldn’t be surprising to see these figures triple or even quadruple within the next decade. Certainly the astounding record of the German Shepherd bitch Ch. Altana’s Mystique is considered unbreakable today with her 275 all-breed awards. While the records of father and daughter Select Am/Can Ch. Kismet’s Sight For Sore Eyes with 101 bests and his (daughter) Ch. Kaleff’s Genuine Risk with 101 bests, both under the guidance of handler Jimmy Moses will probably never be broken either. Nonetheless, one must wonder whether any record is indeed unbreakable—just look at Lou Gehrig and Cal Ripken’s feat—and keep in mind, nothing is forever insofar as record making is concerned. Indeed, when Ch. Rock Falls Colonel, an English Setter, succeeded in the very early fifties of being awarded 100 Best in Shows, whoever would have thought that some 44 years later he would remain the only exhibit to have been handled to this feat by breeder and owner Mr. William Holt. And this was the case even though his brother (Ch. Rock Falls Racquet) actively campaigned against him through the formidable team of owner Ellsworth Howell and handler Jane Camp (Forsyth). Who says owner/handlers can’t win against the ‘”big boys?” Mr. Holt put exactly 100 Best in Shows on this dog. The next dog to achieve this number was the incredible Boxer Ch. Bangaway of Sirrah Crest, owned and bred by Dr. and Mrs. R.C. Harris. Bangaway was primarily handled by Nate Levine except when shown on the West Coast when Harry Sangster did the job. In the mid-fifties, it was more acceptable to fly only the dog coast to coast rather than the dog and its handler, which is why Bangaway basically had two handlers. To tell the truth, the practice of going

We were delighted to announce in 2001 the addition of an American Toy exhibit, Ch. Ta-Jon’s Tickle Me Silly, a Maltese, who has reached this incredible pinnacle and has now a total of 103 all-breed Best in Shows. A multiple National Specialty Show winner, Silly, as she is called, was also Winners Bitch at her National at only 14 months of age. Tammy and John Simon bred her seven years ago. Since her retirement she has whelped three litters and is the proud producer of champion get. A credit to the breeding program of Tammy and John, which started in 1989. The “Ta-Jon” prefix is established internationally as breeders of quality Maltese. Tammy personally handled this incredible bitch throughout her career. In 1998 she broke the record for Toy exhibits by amassing over 60,000 allbreed points. This record, in turn, was broken by a sharing Cross Shih Tzu two years later. Tickle Me Silly was owned and campaigned throughout her career by Samuel and Marion Lawrence. Sam and Marion now have the unheard total of four members of the DOG NEWS 100 Club!!! In addition to Silly, they owned the Doberman Pinscher Ch. Brunswig’s Cryptonite, the Wire Fox Terrier bitch Ch. Registry’s Lonesome Dove and the Black Cocker Spaniel Ch. La-Shay’s Bart Simpson. It is unlikely that this kind of ownership will ever be achieved in our dogs exhibited by lifetime again. In addition the Lawrence’s through June 13, 2001 have been awarded 707 all-breed Best in Shows with all of their dogs! What a mind-boggling accomplishment.

A

s a further point, three more exhibits entered the elusive 100 or more all-breed Best in Show Club since 1999. A Standard Poodle Dog, which was number one dog all breed two years in a row (1998 and 1999), Ch. Lake Cove That’s My Boy, was awarded his 169th Best, while the Lakeland Terrier Bitch. Ch. Revelry’s Awesome Blossom was awarded her 100th. Another member of the “Club” which had been retired for motherhood in 1996 was brought out in April of 1999 and increased her all-breed bests from 133 to 161. She

was the Afghan Hound bitch Ch. Tryst of Grandeur. And last but not least was the incredible and great show dog Ch. Anasazi Billy The Kid. Billy is owned by Bruce Schwartz and was handled by Wood Wornall. Billy was awarded his 100th Best in January 1999 and is the sire of three Best in Show winners, including the classy and top winning Welsh bitch owned by Bruce and campaigned by Wood, Ch. Wyndam Worth The Wait. Billy is but another example of the devotion which Lillian and Bruce Schwartz have, both toward the sport generally and the Welsh Terrier breed specifically. Blossom, who is owned by Jean Heath and Bill Cosby, had been retired to become a mother, but when the litter missed she was brought out again to join this exclusive group of show dogs. Shown expertly by Clay Coady, who in the same year retired from handling to begin a judging career, Blossom attained this coveted win early on in 1999. Tré is well-known to anyone associated with the world of the exhibition of the purebred dog. Shown by Dennis McCoy and expertly conditioned and groomed by his partner, Randy Garren, he was number one dog allbreeds for an incredible 24 consecutive months. He is attributed to be the number one non-sporting dog of all time and is owned by that dog person extraordinaire Mrs. Alan Robson. Tryst, of course, ended up top Hound in 1999, being shown only from April on. She is the top-winning hound of all time and broke the 100 in January 1996. The year before, she was the top-winning dog of all breeds. The owners, the Rechlers, father and sons, are well known breeders of Afghans, having long been associated with the Grandeur Kennels originally conceived by the late and great Sunny Shay. Michael Canalizo has been responsible for the incredible career of this bitch, as well as the presentation and promotion of the kennel and the dogs attendant thereto. It is interesting to note, of course, that all of the professional handlers associated with the three dogs men-

out of ones territory for wins was probably introduced by Mr. Holt of Rock Falls Kennel fame—little did he realize the influence this practice would have upon the showdog of today! Bangaway was awarded 121 Best in Shows. The first imported dog and the next in line to go over the 100 mark was the Pekingese Int. Ch. Chik T’Sun of Caversham, who had 127 Best in Shows. Bred by Mary de Pledge and Mrs. Herminie Lunham in England, Chik T’Sun was imported to Canada by Nigel AubryJones and R. William Taylor, and subsequently sold to Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Venable and handled in America by the beloved Clara Alford. He was the “winningest dog” of all time in America; his record maintained from 1959 until 1980, when the Standard Poodle Ch. Lo-Gin’s Kiss Me Kate returned the record to an American-bred exhibit by achieving 140 Best in Shows. Louis Duncan bred Kate, who was owned by Mr. and Mrs. Jack Phelan and Terri Myers, and in 1979 she broke Chick T’Sun’s record before hitting the 140 BIS mark in 1980. Can you believe throughout that entire time period not one exhibit, and this through a twenty-year period, won over 100 Best in Shows? Kate was handled by Bob Walberg throughout her illustrious career. NOW COMES THE EARLY and mid eighties and not only is a rush made on the 100 mark, but, miracle of miracles, the 200 mark is made and broken by two exhibits! The first, the incomparable Scottish Terrier bitch Ch. Braeburn’s Close Encounter, hit the 100 mark in 1983 and the 200 mark in 1986—records which she held until the mid nineties. Shannon, as the bitch was known to the dog world, was bred by R.E. and H.M. Gurling and first shown by George Ward for her owner, William MacInne. In 1983 her ownership was transferred to Alan and Sonny Novick, and in 1985 re-transferred to Mr. MacInne. From the time she was six months old until her death in January of 1994, she was kept by her handler, George Ward. For many years throughout this period, an intense rivalry between Shannon and another record-breaking dog—the German Shepherd Ch. Covy Tucker Hill’s Manhattan—blossomed. Manhattan broke the 100 mark in 1985 and the 200 mark in 1987. Manhattan won the Garden in that year, and Shannon won it in 1985. The two dogs, on more than one occasion, were shown against each other in Best in Show line-ups in the days when deals between handlers as when to show and when not to show were common. Deals, I might add, never entered into between Jimmy or George.

If you think competition is hot today, the rivalry between Manhattan and Shannon and George and Jimmy was unbelievable. James Moses, of course, handled Manhattan for owners Shirlee Braunstein and Jane A. Firestone. He accumulated 204 Best in Shows and was bred by Cappy Pottle and Gloria Birch. Another import, this time Wire Fox Terrier Ch. Galsul Excellence, was making his mark during this period of 1986 and 1987 as well by breaking the 1OO mark with 103 Best in Shows in 1988. Owned by Ruth Cooper and the MacKays, his career was shortened by the unhappy “MacKay affair.” Whether a dog should be penalized for the faults of an errant co-owner remains an unanswered question philosophically in our sport even today, but certainly Paddy’s career came to an early end. He was handled by Peter Green and bred by J. Galvin. Eventually he became the sole property of his then co-owner Ruth Cooper. As we entered the nineties, specifically from 1990 through 1995, nine exhibits, three bitches and six dogs would break the 100 Best in Show mark, with two of them, both bitches, going over 200. As mentioned in the beginning of this story, Ch. Altanta’s Mystique set the new record for wins with 275. A bitch who excelled at specialties as well as all-breeds, Mystique was owned by Jane A. Firestone and handled by James Moses—the same team which stood behind Manhattan. Mystique is in the Guinness Book Of World Records as the top-winning showdog ever. This formidable duo was shattered by Jane’s untimely passing in December 1994, but hers and their devotion to the sport generally, and the German Shepherd specifically, are what legends are made of. In 1991, entering this select circle of winners and record setters was the Standard Poodle Ch. Whisperwind On Carousel, owned by Dr. and Mrs. Frederick Harsock, bred by Linda Blackie and handled to perfection by Dennis McCoy and Randy Garren. “Peter” accumulated 105 Best in Shows. He basically was shown in his home territory and truly not flown throughout the country to accumulate his victories. Similarly, the English Springer spaniel shown by Mark Threlfall for breeder-owner Julia Gasow and coowner Herzig was a territorial accumulator of 103 or 104 all-breed bests. He carried the legendary Salilyn kennel prefix and was registered as Ch. Salilyn’s Condor. And lastly are the three dogs owned by Sam and Marion Lawrence, which set enviable and amazing records in the mid-nineties. First there was the Doberman Pinscher Ch. Brunswig’s Cryptonite breaking the 100 mark with ease, with a total of 123 allbreed Best in Shows. Handled by George Murray and bred by R.G. and P.K. Farrer. His career was established and guided by the firm hand of owner Sam Lawrence

and the handling of George Murray. During Cryptonite’s campaigning, the Lawerences acquired the Wire Fox Terrier bitch Ch. Registry’s Lonesome Dove, who probably exceeded even the wildest dreams of their owners as she accumulated 216 Best in Shows throughout her career. Handled by Mike Kemp again, Sam provided the course to follow, as Lacey just this past year broke Shannon’s longstanding terrier record for Best in Show wins. And to top the cake, just one month ago, the Lawrence’s Black Cocker Spaniel Ch. La-Shay’s Bart Simpson established himself as the top-winning sporting dog, beating the Springer record with 106 Best in Show awards. The handler herein was Bob Covey, but again the long and able guidance of Sam Lawrence was apparent to all. Bart’s breeder is Sherry Marley. In 1991 the Bouvier des Flandres Ch. Galbraith’s Iron Eyes achieved the win of his lifetime when he was awarded his 100th all-breed Best in Show win at the Santa Ana Valley Kennel Club. This outstanding exhibit joined the list of top winners campaigned and owned by Nat and Gloria Reese who were no strangers at all to top winners. With the handling team of Corky and Sue Vroom, the Reeses and Vrooms presented one of the most formidable top winning dogs ever to perform in the showring. Iron was bred by the Galbraith’s—David and Joan—who have long been involved in the breed and have devoted many years to producing some of the top Bouviers to be shown in America.

S

o there you have it, folks, the dogs that have set the records insofar as Best in Show wins at all-breed shows are concerned. Records no doubt meant to be broken, but these numbers, for whatever they are worth, add up to staggering successes of individual dogs over other dogs. They are imposing figures, and while some may question the value of these types of wins, since we all agree there are many fine dogs that for geographic, economic or other reasons are shown only on a limited scale, the winning competitive spirit established by these dogs and their owners, handlers and breeders not only serve the sport well but add an excitement and interest which are impossible to beat.

down the hall, the child almost always says ëYeahí and is willing to do it. We see this kind of thing happen all the time. Children and adults are willing to do things for animals because itís fun.î

each facility they visit and always are accompanied by a staff member or a specially trained hospital volunteer. ìWhen visiting pediatrics or oncology in a hospital, we might be accompanied by a child life therapist or nurse. When visiting rehab, we might be accompanied by a physical therapist,î Burrows says. The staff member or volunteer provides the handler with the information he needs to know, i.e., if the patient just had surgery, has a port on his left side, etc.

Goal Directed Intervention

Simple activities like the above and the following are used to accomplish goals in the patientís treatment plan. ìIf youngsters have motor skill issues with their hands for example, then we ask them to throw a ball for the dog to fetch or to brush the dog,î Burrows says. The goals of each individualís treatment plan determine the activities done with the dog. ìWhen I visit Advocate Childrenís Hospital in Park Ridge, I might be asked to go to the Peds Intensive Care Unit. Once there, I might be told to visit a child coming out of surgery who has intense pain. The nurse might ask me to help the child manage his pain. My dog would be able to do that because stroking and petting dogs can lower stress hormones. My dog also serves as a distraction, while providing comfort at the same time. In these situations, the child often wonít use the pain pump at all during the time my dog interacts with him.î Rainbow handlers work closely with the staff at

Part Of The Treatment Plan

The animal assisted activities performed by Rainbow dogs are written into the treatment plans of the individuals with whom they interact. At Advocate Childrenísí Hospital in Park Ridge, they become part of the childís medical record, i.e., the accompanying staff member or volunteer takes notes on the outcome of the animal assisted activities which the dog was asked to perform. For example, if Burrows was instructed to try to stop a childís crying and her dog succeeded in doing it, it would be notated in the childís medical record. Rainbow dog and handler teams may be asked to do anything from making the medical experience less scary to dealing with end-of-life issues, i.e., they might be asked to distract a child having blood drawn or an ultrasound performed or to comfort a child with terminal cancer.

Rainbowís Dog Safety presentations reach more than 3000 students annually. In the photo above, second graders at Queen of Angels School in Chicago learn how to stay safe around dogs and not be bitten.

Given all they do, itís not surprising Rainbow dog and handler teams are trained extensively. ìEveryone is required to take our Introduction to Animal Assisted Therapy Course. It meets for four, 90-minute sessions and is for both the dog and handler,î Burrow says. ìIn it, we cover a lot of different components not the least of which are making sure the handler has adequate handling skills, and their dog has an appropriate temperament for performing animal assisted activities in a therapeutic setting. ìWe begin the course by introducing some of the different activities that handlers use during therapy sessions. We do this by teaching the activity ˇrst; then, explaining how to use it in a variety of programs. For example, we teach the dogs how to bowl. This activity could be used at a preschool program for youngsters learning colors or positioning. In that event, we might ask the child to place the red pin next to the blue pin or to arrange the pins in a triangle. We also do bowling for stroke victims in rehab, who need to regain motor skills.î (The activities the dogs perf orm are designed to encourage par ticipant interaction. In the case of bowling, itís more fun to do w hen competing with the dog . When the dogs motivate the person to participate in the activity, often, the person doesnít realize heís doing therapy.) After completing the introductory course, the dog and handler team is required to take the Rainbow registration test. It is based on the American Kennel Clubís Canine Good Citizen Evaluation but includes seven additional test exercises, i.e., being comfortable around medical equipment, taking a treat gently, etc. After the dog and handler team complete the class and pass the test, CONTINUED ON PAGE 236

Rainbow teams participate in Therapy Dog Reading Programs in libraries and schools. These programs provide children with an opportunity to practice reading aloud to a non-judgmental therapy dog.

University, said both surveys are likely to produce unreliable results in part due to their use of online panels, which he said can give skewed samples of the population. ìMy suggestion would be to be really careful with these numbers,î Dillman said. Hereís why: When conducting a survey by mail, itís possible to start with a list of nearly every physical address in the nation ó provided by the U.S. Postal Service, with names removed ó and then select households to survey. Online methods, by contrast, donít reach signiˇcant chunks of the population, particularly older and low-income households. At least 15 percent of American adults do not use the Internet, according to a 2013report by the Pew Research Center. In addition, databases that correlate email addresses with physical locations are far less complete than the Postal Serviceís address list, Dillman said, so itís not possible to create a truly random sample even of all Internet-connected households. Further, he said, common problems exist with the types of volunteer online panels used for the APPA and AVMA surveys. These panels are collections of hundreds of thousands of people who have provided basic demographic information ó mailing address, age, income, gender, race, household size, marital status, education and employment ó and signed up to complete online surveys in exchange for modest rewards. Hours of survey-taking are required to earn a $10 gift card. (Anyone interested may volunteer for the Ipsos panel, the panel used by Irwin Broh, or at any of at least 20 similar websites.) ìThey have the aura of being scientiˇc because they have so many respondents,î Dillman said. ìÖ But theyíre just not good science.î The trouble with online panels, he said, is that they tend to be composed of people who have spare time and Internet access and for whom a small reward is a signiˇcant CONTINUED ON PAGE 214

Survey Says...

incentive ó and thatís not likely to be a representative slice of the national population. The two surveying companies tried to account for that. The methodology sections of the AVMA and APPA survey publications state that demographic information about panel members was used to adjust data from survey respondents to produce results that are valid for the U.S. population as a whole. For instance, if certain age groups of people are underrepresented among survey respondents, their answers are given greater weight when calculating survey results. But Dillman said dataweighting is highly reliable only when there are well-established correlations between demographic traits and the variable being surveyed. For instance, data-weighting in election-day exit polls works fairly well because the demographics of voting have been studied exhaustively. Pet ownership, he said, likely doesnít fall into that category. The upshot, Dillman said, is that both pet ownership surveys may be signiˇcantly biased. Ipsos, Irwin Broh and MySurvey.com, the panel used by Broh, did not respond to requests from the VIN News Service for more information about their techniques. Without more information, Dillman said it is impossible to assess whether one survey is more reliable than the other. ìI donít think a scientist can make anything out of it,î he said. Granskog at the AVMA acknowledged that the switch to online survey techniques may have accounted for some of the shift in its survey results. ìIt is certainly something we will be looking at as we move forward with the next survey, which will also be via an electronic sample,î she said by email.

SPECIFIC NUMBERS NOT ëGOD-GIVENí ndrew Rowan, chief scientific officer of the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and a former director of the Center for Animals and Public Policy at Tufts University Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, has followed animal population numbers for years and is highly familiar with the discrepancies. They caught his attention even before the release of the latest figures with the largest variance. In 2008, Rowan convened a workshop in Houston involving the AVMA, APPA and others in an attempt to reconcile divergent statistics. In a report he distributed afterward to participants and subsequently shared with the VIN News Service, Rowan wrote: “…it was generally accepted that the AVMA pet population estimates from their quinquennial surveys are likely to be more reliable than the biennial surveys used to produce the APPMA demographic reports. This is because the APPMA is mainly focused on a detailed analysis of pet owner behavior and purchases rather than estimating national population trends.” (The report refers to the APPA as the APPMA because at the time, the trade organization went by the name American Pet Products Manufacturers Association.) A spokeswoman for the APPA said it could not comment on the meeting, but that the group stands behind its survey “100 percent.” Despite Rowan’s understanding that the AVMA results are likely to be more reliable, the HSUS presents APPA figures on its website. Rowan said that decision was made by his organization’s companion

animal section. “I’ve talked to them about it, but they do it,” he said in a telephone interview. “I don’t feel strongly enough about it to push for a change.” Rowan explained that the APPA report appeals to HSUS staff because it is updated more frequently than the AVMA’s and includes a variety of data. “It comes out every two years in a big, professional-looking book. It’s got lots of interesting information, so they use it,” he said. (Following the interview, Rowan reported that the HSUS plans to change the website reference.) The APPA figures are useful for tracking trends in pet ownership, if not exact numbers of pets, Rowan added. In the 2008 report, he wrote: “The reason these trend data are reliable is because the methods used were broadly the same each time the survey was done. Therefore, even though the APPMA data might overestimate dog and cat populations, the method would have the same bias towards overestimation each time.” He told the VIN News Service: “You don’t want to take each number as a particularly God-given number. You want to look at the trends.” Looking at APPA and AVMA data since their surveys began in the 1980s, he said, “Both show an increase (in pet ownership). But the AVMA data is much lower than the APPA data. I suspect the APPA is quite comfortable having it be high,” he added. “It serves their purposes.”

AS FOR THE CONFLICT BETWEEN THE AVMAíS latest ˇnding that pet ownership dipped and the APPAís ˇnding that pet ownership continued to climb, Rowan suspects the AVMAís two most recent results are the problem. ìIím fairly conˇdent their 2011 number is low, and their 2006 number is high, and the real number is somewhere in between,î he said. Why? Because looking back 20 years, he said, the surveyís trend line is ìalmost exactly parallelî with the number of households in the United States. Rowan does not believe the recent economic slump drove a downturn in pet ownership. The popular perception that many Americans couldnít afford to keep pets during the bad times, Rowan said, isnít borne out by databases tracking shelter activity.

In 1986 they lost many of their dogs in a devastating ˇre at their home. Two of the successful that perished were the French Bulldog, Multi Ch. Pahling Corinthian, imported from England and who was Dog of the Year in Sweden in 1973 and the English bred Bulldog, Ch. Tygarth Lucifer, a Best in Show winner at all the major shows in the 1980s. To commemorate these dogs they commissioned Erik O. Stˆvling (born 1913) to paint their portraits and these are two from the many beautiful and historic pieces of dog art they bequeathed to the museum. Count Adolf Patrik Hamilton was the driving force behind the founding in 1889 of the Swedish Kennel Club. All were members of landed families and Swedish nobility interested in shooting over Pointers and Setters, so one of the clubís original aims was to establish a body caring for the pure-bred dog and nurture and preserve the breedsí original working ability. A link in the museum to the clubs beginning is the Countís personal writing accoutrements and other memorabilia that were donated by the Hamilton family. Two historically important pictures painted soon after the club was founded were both the work of Bruno Liljefors (1860-1939), Swedenís most inˇuential and commercially successful wildlife and animal painter from the late 19th/ early 20th century who kept a virtual private zoo of animals he used as models. One picture features the ˇrst Swedish champion made up in 1909, the Swedish Hound, Kling, owned by Captain Torstehn Kroplien. Fittingly, Kling was a descendant of Count Hamiltonís most famous hounds and the breed was re-named in 1920 the Hamiltonstˆvare in the Countís honour. This picture was one of lifeís fortunate ˇnds for an eagle-eyed observer noticed it coming up for auction in Stockholm. The other picture is of the ˇrst

two ˇeld trial winners in Sweden, both English Setters owned by Arthur Wendel. The blue belton is the English bred Ranger of Moors, winner of the ˇrst ˇeld trial in 1893 and the orange belton is Rangerís daughter, Loola, winner of the second trial in 1895 and also the 1896 and 1897 trials. It was originally loaned to the museum by Wendelís descendants to feature in an exhibition celebrating the centenary of the ˇrst ˇeld trial but in 2006 the museum was able to purchase it along with two silver cups won by Ranger and Loola. The earliest picture in the museum was bought by the club at auction as a gift to itself to celebrate the clubís centenary. A huntsman resting with three hounds, it was painted by the Swedish nobleman and portrait painter, David Klˆcker Ehrenstrahl (1628-1698), one of the most important artists of the period for his depictions of so many breeds and who was the favourite artist of the dog-loving Queen Hedvig Eleonora. It shows a huntsman resting with three hounds, the white hound is thought to be King Charles XIís favourite hound, Gallas. Carl Fredrik Kiˆrboeís (17991876) The Inundation tugs at the heartTHE DOG NEWS ANNUAL • 222

Kiˆrboe made copies of his own work, including this picture, one of which is in a museum in Gothenburg and another is said to have been purchased by the French government in 1850. The Museum acquired theirs in 2008. All though was not lost for there is a much less well-known follow-up picture (not in the museum), where they have all arrived safely at shore. Setters and Pointers were at the very root of the Swedish Kennel Clubís founding, so it is ˇtting the museum has an impressive picture of Pointers. Painted by zoologist, sportsman and artist, Gustaf Swenander (1874-1952), the dogs have been identiˇed as the artistís own.

Sweden of the past is the S·mi boy sitting on a tree-trunk in an extensive landscape, his Lapland dog at his side. It was painted by Johan TirÈn (1853-1911) who captures the daily life of the S·mi people and also for their engagement in their social and political situation in society. Alongside so many works by artists who are important to the art world, the museum also displays works by lesser artists that are nevertheless equally important to the dog world. One that ˇts into this category is the ˇrst picture purchased by the Academy of two Bulldogs. It was painted by the 19th century British artist, Joshua J. Gibson and the rationale behind the purchase was to show the breed at the time of the breedís ˇrst standard in the 1870s. 20th century pictures of dogs that were important to their respective breeds include Airedale breeder and artist Richardis Sˆrvikís (1893-1975) picture of the blue roan Cocker Spaniel Ch. Valstar Craftsman; Axel Lindegrenís (1860-1933) double portrait of the Salukis, Sidi Asad Ben Gana and Sarona Sogna; the French Bulldog, Finnish Ch. Fleurette by Margit Aarni Aaltonen (1900-1980); the Irish Terrier Ch. Rowsley Betty by the American artist Gustav Muss Arnoltís (1858-1927) and the Dalmatians Int. Ch. Garrets Ice Cream Check Mate and Int. Ch. Annelunds Bessie painted by artist, actor and ˇlm director, Bror B¸gler (1908-1975), whose other work includes the Pekingese, Elise, pet of Swedenís Queen Louise and former US President, Lyndon B. Johnsonís Beagles. The Cocker was imported from England by Lilian ÷hrstrˆm in 1947 and became Swedenís most inˇuential sire of any breed; the Saluki, Ben Gana was in the ˇrst Litter of Salukis born in Sweden in 1926; Fleurette was the foundation female of Ulla Segerstrˆmís kennel; the Irish Terrier picture was one of four Muss Arnolt pictures bought by one-time Chairman of the Swedish Kennel Club, Carl-Reinhold von Essen, while serving as a Military-attachÈ in London during the Second World War and the Dalmatians were the foundation of Karin Gustavsson Annelundís kennel successes in the 1970s. In 2000 the Swedish Kennel Club commissioned Folke Bagger (born 1960) to paint a series of pictures and to com-

memorate the clubís 125th anniversary last year the artist donated to the club his portrait of the clubís founder surrounded by a group of mainly Scandinavian breeds. The most historically important three dimensional piece of art is a bronze head of a Pointer modelled on the head of Largo who was owned by William Arkwright. Attributed to Maud Earl (1863-1943), Arkwright took it with him when he went to judge at Stockholm show in 1906. There are no records of Miss Earl ever having worked in anything other than paint, so this could well be the ˇrst known sculpture by her and if so would rewrite the history books of Englandís most famous dog artist. Other three dimensional art and trophies includes a hunting group in porcelain of two riders on white horses with hounds from Italyís bestknow ceramic factory, Capodimonte; a bronze patinated bÈton (a fancy name for architectural concrete) of a Leonberger sculpted by Norwegian artist Brit Skajaa, a gift from

the Finnish Kennel Club to commemorate the Swedish Kennel Clubís 75th anniversary; an earthenware group of three Airedales by Aase CornÈer, and one of the most important and impressive dog trophies ever made. It stands nearly two feet high, is made in 22 carat gold and enamel with a cast Pointer in gold as the ˇnial to the cover and is mounted on a marble base with gold plaques applied. It was made by goldsmith K. Andersson in 1927, commissioned by Erik Akerlund and awarded to encourage young promising Pointers at ˇeld trials. If you are not fortunate enough to be able to visit the museum you can now enjoy it in its entirety in the comfort of your own home with a glass of your favourite wine via a sumptuously produced book written by RenÈe Sporre-Willes. It was published last year to celebrate of the clubís 125th jubilee. The book is priced at US $72 to include postage and is obtainable direct from the Swedish Kennel Club, details from info@skk.se. The text of the book is bilingual being in both English and Swedish.

Klinker Brick Winery Dog

Wilson Winery Dog for paraplegics and disabled people, about the possibility of training dogs to sniff out the vineyard pest. They donated $33,000 to test the theory, which began in late 2005 by training a litter of seven-weekold golden retrievers, selected because of their work with humans as guide dogs and other capacities, and for their detective work. ìThe puppies were trained to smell the mealybug pheromone,î said Honig, who called the cost ìminimalî in light of the millions of dollars in damage done to the Napa community. However, the initial group of dogs proved too clingy ó they could identify the scent of mealybugs but they wouldnít race out through the vineyard to the infected vines ó so a retriever from a line of hunting dogs was introduced and the mealybug pheromone ìsniffer dogî came into existence. ìThe dogs were very effective,î said Honig. ìWhen we discovered a certain area that had it, they were like a surgical team. They would go in and bark to announce. The big challenge was in covering the ground, because weíre dealing with hundreds of acres.î Though the dogs were effective in combating this speciˇc pest, Honig stopped using them about two years ago when an easier way to get rid of the honeydew was discovered ñ the Argentine ant, which likes the secretions and ˇghts off its predators. ìThe industry didnít know it existed at the time but that speciˇc problem has now been eradicated,î he said, in no small part to the handiwork of the dogs. Dogs have also been used to combat another costly nemesis of the wine industry: tainted cork.

By the time that honeydew is visible to the naked human eye, it can mean that entire sections of a vineyard have been infested. Vintners spent tens of millions each year trying to eradicate them, which usually involved heavy use of pesticides and herbicides, detrimental for an industry and a culture trying to move away from using chemicals, and posing a huge threat to sustainable and organic farming efforts. As one pest-control adviser told The Wall Street Journal in 2007, ìItís like the war on terror. These guys are trying to attack our way of life and we need to neutralize them.î Dogs were successfully deployed to aid in the war on terror, and once again were called upon to help in the war on terroir. Michael Honig, president of the family-owned sustainable Honig Vineyard and Winery in Napa Valley, and a group of like-minded vintners didnít want to use insecticides and knew that early detection was the key to controlling the epidemic, so they contacted the Assistance Dog Institute (now the Bergin University of Canine Studies) in Santa Rosa, CA, which trains companion dogs CONTINUED FROM PAGE 89

INCONSISTENT RESULTS AMONG SURVEYS NOT UNUSUAL

Another organization that uses AVMA and APPA data is the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the U.S. Department of Labor. In an article published last May, ìSpending on pets: ëTailsí from the Consumer Expenditure Survey,î the bureau obtained from the AVMA the proportion of American households with pets, and from the APPA, the total number of pets in the United States. Steve Henderson, chief of the information and analysis branch in the Consumer Expenditure Survey Division and author of the article, didnít recall noticing discrepancies between population ˇgures from the two sources. ìI did not use the information in a way that I needed to ˇgure out one number over the other,î he said in a telephone interview. Learning that the surveys produce inconsistent answers didnít surprise him, though. Henderson observed that surveys on household and personal spending conducted separately by his agency and by the U.S. Department of Commerce donít always yield consistent information, either. Thatís to be expected to some degree, he said, due to differences in the questions and when theyíre asked. Thinking about pets, Henderson noted that asking ìDo you have any pets COUNTING COMPANION animals appears to be difficult even now?î and ìHow many pets have you had durin a much smaller geographic region than the United States. ing the past 12 months?î could elicit different When the pet welfare advocacy organization Found Animals answers. set out to determine the population of dogs and cats in the In fact, the AVMA and APPA do ask about city and county of Los Angeles, it identified five sources of pet ownership in different ways.

IN ONE OF MY ERRANDs having to use a cab, the company sent to pick me up an elderly lady driver, this was supposed to be a short drive, and when in a taxi I like to travel in the front seat. I had no packages just my purse and an issue of the Dog News in my lap. The trafˇc was heavy and we got stacked for some time - time enough - for the driver take note of my magazine. îAha, this is a dog magazine, so

Short explanation and conversation (about dogs of course), the lady told me that she was from Uzbekistan (now this is different I thought) and that her patriotic parents had a big dog known by the locals as a Sarkangik Shepherd, (she pronounced Charkanjik), loved and pampered by the whole family.

We really had a nice talk, and needless to say that as soon as I arrived home, went to look after, and to research about the strange named breed (I had to take note of the name, as strange and rare as the breed itself). Thank you Mrs. Agnieszka (from all the names) for introducing me to the breed and consequently Uzbekistan - where ñif not for this casual conversation - I would never have gone. The Uzbek Republic, in Central Asia, is a presidential country. The capital, and largest city is Tashkent, the ofˇcial language is Uzbek (a Turkic language related to several other Central Asian languages, which are also spoken in western China). It is important to note that each country has its own dictionary, and do not believe that all of them speak the better known Russian/Slav language. Uzbekistan has an area of 447,400 square kilometers and according to the latest census the population is of 27,865,738 inhabitants. Humansí habitation in the country can be traced back from 55,000 to 70,000 years. When the 1st millennium BC arrived, Uzbekistan was already divided in powerful states. Before the Christian era old cities as Samarkand, Tashkent, and Bukhara were established, and turned into well known resting places along the great Silk Road*. The ˇrst known civilization was the Sogdian Empire conquered by Alexander the Great. Circa 150 BCE the land was occupied by nomad tribes who ended the CONTINUED ON PAGE 234

A great part of Uzbekistan is taken up by the Taklimakan desert. The climate is cruel; in the summer daytime temperatures go from 110 to over 130 degrees or above, and in the winter the temperatures drop below minus 20 degrees. The passages crossing these mountains had given a lot of problems for the courageous travelers of the past. Uzbekistan is also member of The Region Initiative (TRI). TRI is a Tri-regional Umbrella of Tourism related organizations. TRI is functioning as a link between three regions----South Asia, Central Asia and Eastern Europe. The tourists traveling to this gelid country will be amazed by its peculiar beauty, and impressive landscape. Uzbekistan, situated on the ancient Great Silk Road between Europe and Asia, invites travelers to visit the marvelous cities of Bukhara and Samarkand, famous for their architectural richness and once a trade and cultural center. The History Museum of the People of Uzbekistan is a must-stop for anyone looking for the localeís history. Khiva has the Museum of Applied Arts.

they spend time observing other dog and handler teams performing animal assisted activities in a variety of settings: a hospital, library and school. In this way, the handler gets a sense of the depth and breadth of the programs offered by Rainbow. That better enables him to choose the kind of program in which he wants to participate with his dog. Rainbow programs span everything from basic therapy dog visitation at Level I to Level V where dog and handler teams work with children with behavioral issues such as autism or are in psych programs. In the case of Level V program work, dog and handler teams must have lots of skills and know lots of activities. ìThe handler next is asked to bring his dog to different settings where we can observe how he and his dog behave as a team,î Burrows says. ìIf they work well together, then they are asked to complete a 4- to 6-month internship. The internshipís length is determined by the difˇculty of the program in which the handler is interested in participating. During the internship, the team is mentored by an experienced dog and handler team who teaches them things like how to position the dog next to a hospital patient, how to have a patient walk the dog without tripping on its leash and how to plan activities to accomplish goals. ìAny handler who wants to work in a hospital setting also is asked to complete our two-part hospital training program. The ˇrst part focuses on the handling skills needed in a hospital environment. The second part is conducted in a hospital medical training classroom, which duplicates a patient room. During the second part, the dog and handler team work on things like how to greet a hospital patient appropriately, how to get the dog on and off a bed as well as various animal activities suitable for visiting a patient in a bed.î

When working with autistic children for example, we stress activities where the children give commands to the dog when verbalization is the goal.î The total number of points the dog earns during retesting determines the level of program difˇculty in which the team may participate. ìYearly retesting is required because dogs change over time. Eventually, participating at a particular level of program difˇculty may begin to tire them. In that event, we might suggest the handlers try a different program thatís not quite as stressful for the dogs,î Burrows says. Any new skills the dog and handler learned during the past year, as a result of additional course work, also are assessed during retesting. ìIf they learned a lot of new skills, then the handler might be asked if he wants to move up to a more difˇcult program level,î Burrows says. Rainbowís all-volunteer, animal assisted activity programs are open to any breed of dog from Chihuahuas to Great Danes as long as the dog is at least one year of age. Any handler at least 18 years of age may participate as well. For more information, those interested may visit the organizationís website at http://www.rainbowaat.org/

On Wednesday evening, the ABdFC’s Top 20 event was held in the Founder’s Room at Purina. This annual event is both a celebration and recognition for the hard work and accomplishments of the breed’s top performers in the conformation and performance arenas, as well as the dedicated breeders who have produced these ne Bouviers. The evening began with the Bouviers who have risen to the top ranks of performance events including herding, agility, carting, rally and obedience, being individually presented to spectators in person and through a full color catalog including a photograph, pedigree and a biography of each dog’s accomplishments. It is especially rewarding that each year the participation of this diverse group of performance dogs increases. This year’s Top 20 Conformation Bouviers were judged by a three-person panel including Carmen Battaglia, representing All Breed Judges, Michaelanne Johnson, representing Bouvier Breeders, and Paul Catterson, as our handler judge. The 2014 Top 20 Conformation competition winner is Am/Can GCH Intl CH Zegen van Vlaanderen CGN, bred and owned by Brian R. and Owen X Gunther of Quebec, THE DOG NEWS ANNUAL ¥ 240

Always stepping up when needed, always offering to help, and always extending her hand, while for many years, working at a ‘regular’ job, developing her own well known bloodline and always maintaining her dedication to this wonderful breed. Her honesty and integrity deserve the utmost respect.” Nancy was moved by her selection and graciously accepted the award. And so it was with the 2014 National Specialty. We celebrated the dogs with the recognition that was exempli ed by many years of dedication to the breed and we enjoyed renewing old friendships and making new ones.

SARKANGIK SHEPHERD ñ U Z B E K I S TA N CONTINUED FROM PAGE 234

from predators for more than 3000 years. They never interfered with the selection or ever controlled the dogís natural breeding. Probably descending from the Alabai, the Sarkangik had also inˇuence of other breeds as for instance the Persian Mastiff, the Mongolian Shepherd, and the Russian Ovcharka. These dogs certainly enforced their resilience and courage. Other outcrosses contributed for ensuring the preservation of the best working qualities of the breed. The Sarkangik is one of the most valued dogs of the country because it has reliable temperament, is smart and intelligent, and is well-adjusted to the harsh temperatures of the locale. The Uzbekistan Shepherd Dog is separated in two types according to the duties they perform. The one called Torkuz is a heavier, enormous mastiff whose head is broad, the bones and muscles are very strong and are used as guard and defense dogs (unfortunately as ring ˇghters as well). The other type is not as tall or as heavy as the Torkuz, but is as strong and powerful as the other, and its duty is to drive and defend the herds, seldom used for ˇghting. Crosses between the two types are frequent but regardless of the differences the Uzbekistan Shepherd Dog is an impressive Mollosser, appreciated for its calm temperament and

gentle ways around people, proving themselves as excellent family partners for selected, strong and patient owners. Instinctively territorial and alert toward strangers, these enormous dogs are not vicious or aggressive, instead they are trustable and obedient, yet serious and mostly for their impressive appearance intimidating guard and watchdogs. Due to their size and temperament (also for being naturally deˇant with other dogs) early socialization and responsible handling is of great importance. This healthy and resilient breed requires a certain amount of exercise, and likes to have some task to be occupied with. The ears

and tail can be seen either cropped or in their natural state in Uzbekistan. The dog is slightly longer than tall. The ribs are well sprung and let down to, or slightly below, the elbows. The chest is broad and deep. The line of the back declines very slightly downward from broad, muscular, prominent withers to a strong, broad back with a straight upper line. The loin is short, broad, muscular and slightly arched. The croup is broad, long, muscular, and slightly sloped. Tuck-up is moderate. The skin is thick and elastic. The coat is fairly short, but very thick and densely undercoated, usually a bit longer during the winter months. Many colorings exist, but most dogs are either whitebased with patches of darker shades or mostly black, brown, grey or fawn with white markings. Average height is around 32 inches, although smaller shepherds, as well as taller mastiffs, can be found. Our dear readers can ˇnd the complete Standard at the United Kennel Club breeds section under the Central Asian Sheepdog title. *The Silk Road was a network of trade routes formally established during the Han Dynasty of China which linked the regions of the ancient world in commerce. As the Silk Road was not a single thoroughfare from east to west, the term ëSilk Routesí has become increasingly favored by historians, though ëSilk Roadí is the more common and recognized name. Both terms for this network of roads were coined by the German geographer and traveler, Ferdinand von Richthofen, in 1877 CE, who designated them ëSeidenstrasseí (silk road). The network was used regularly from 130 BCE, when the Han ofˇcially opened trade with the west, to 1453 CE, when the Ottoman Empire boycotted trade with the west and closed the routes.

cracking down on substandard commercial breeders who activists say supply the puppies that pet stores sell.”

Thatís why Siegel says she was shocked a year ago when she learned the Davie Town Council was considering a law that would ban stores from selling dogs. The ban, she says, would put her out of business. After Siegel brought her case to the council, the bill was rejected. But in at least 30 other communities in Florida, local governments have passed similar bans ó most of them in the past three years. Bans on dog sales in pet stores have also been adopted in California, New Jersey and other states. The laws are aimed at cracking down on substandard commercial breeders who activists say supply the puppies that pet stores sell. Michele Lazarow is clearly a dog lover ó she has three of her own. She has led the effort to stamp out pet store dog sales in South Florida. She says the laws are intended to encourage pet stores to follow the lead of national chains like Petsmart, Petco and Pet Supermarket. None sells dogs; instead, they promote adoptions through shelters and rescue groups. About 10 years ago, Lazarow bought a pet store puppy that developed a chronic illness. That opened her eyes about where pet stores get the puppies they sell, she says. ìAll stores ó 99 percent of them ó sell whatís called puppy mill dogs, or large-scale commercial breeder dogs,î she says. ìYes, theyíre USDA, but that means nothing, as weíve come to see.î That phrase ó puppy mill ó is loaded and controversial. Lazarow says it includes any large-scale breeding operation that places monetary value over the welfare of the animal. Itís a broad deˇnition, one often applied to any breeder who sells dogs to pet stores. Those breeders are all subject to annual Agriculture Department inspections. But animal welfare activists, like Cori Menkin of the ASPCAís Puppy Mills Campaign, say the inspections donít amount to much because federal regulations are too lax. ìThe regulation of breeders is so poor that all it really does is give consumers and the general public a false sense of security that their dogs are coming from a humane environment when theyíre not,î she says. Menkin says her group, the American Society for the Pre-

vention of Cruelty to Animals, is working to put pressure directly on breeders. It posts USDA inspection reports that show breeder violations on its website. A ban on pet store dog sales would put additional pressure on an industry that she says has been slow to change. There are many, though, who disagree, including the American Kennel Club, which opposes bans on pet store dog sales. Patti Strand, president of the National Animal Interest Alliance, a group that works closely with the AKC, says commercial breeders have improved practices in recent years ó progress that she says is ignored by activists. ìThey assume everybody who is selling dogs to pet stores and every pet store that sells them are engaged in some kind of horriˇc puppy mill kind of operation,î she says. ìThatís not only not fair, itís not true.î In Miami, the city commission recently adopted a six-month moratorium on new pet stores selling dogs while it studies a permanent ban. The future of these bans, though, may be decided not by local governments, but by the courts. Lawsuits ˇled by pet store owners are pending in Florida, Illinois and Arizona.

“They assume everybody who is selling dogs to pet stores and every pet store that sells them are engaged in some kind of horrific puppy mill kind of operation,” she says. “That’s not only not fair, it’s not true.”
