FROM THE EXECUTIVE EDITOR EMERITUS Joseph Neil McGinnis III

A VERY BRIGHT START TO A PROMISING YEAR

PHOTO BY SHARON CARVALHO L

JUST THINK ABOUT IT: diving headlong into 2018 with my annual trip to the shows in Palm Springs, followed by the blockbuster circuit in Brooksville (FL), and then on to Westminster in New York. I’m not sure I could’ve envisioned a better itinerary to see great people, stellar dogs and cities I love. So, a few words about each... The Kennel Club of Palm Springs has long been a favorite of mine; every single thing this club does, it does first class. Held at the stunning Empire Polo Grounds in Indio, and commanding a huge entry every single time (this year we topped 3500) this extremely well-run show is a thrill to attend and a bigger thrill to work. I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve attended but my memories are crystal clear; this is a four-day cluster (two days of Specialties, two all-breed shows) that is unlike any other in the coun- try. Even the wonderful photos we have in this issue fail to fully capture the ambience and attitude that surrounds KCPS; it is truly tremendous. My hat is off to Show Chair Darryl Vice and the entire team for giving us such an incredible event. (I had the plea- sure of watching Darryl judge a Dobe Specialty while I was there—his expertise in the ring equals his abili- ty to put on a show.) Even when the weather’s iffy— as it can be in the Desert in January—it’s wonderful, but this year the conditions were postcard-perfect. What an absolute treat. My hat is off, as always, to the guardians of this great club. And speaking of kudos, I want to send out a huge thank you and get well to Barbara (BJ) Andrews who in this magazine’s twenty-five year history has never missed a dead- line...except today. The wonderful BJ has unfortu- nately broken her arm and although her brain’s working at its usual fevered pace, her typing skills are down for the count. She’ll be back with us next month. Heal fast, my friend!

The fourteen days that comprise the Florida

January Circuit, in Brooksville, is an exhausting but

thrilling experience for all. This year the chamber of commerce would prefer to forget; it was cold with tem- peratures dipping into the twenties. That’s very unusual for the

BJ ANDREWS

area, of course, but regulars are used to the capricious climate and dress for the occasion. Many breeds had bigger entries than we’ve seen in years so ringside was packed and the rings

themselves filled with quality and quantity befitting our sport. With what I saw, it promises to be a very challenging, exciting year of dog shows. And last but not least, Westminster in my wonderful ex-home: Manhattan. This will be my thirty-ninth consecutive trip to the Garden and I look forward to it just as much as I did my first. I hope to see you there, and if not there, here. ShowSight continues to strive to be the very best that we can be, and the entire team here sends our best Valentine’s Day wishes to everyone in dogs. Next month we’ll bring news from New York and everywhere else where dogs reign supreme. Which is, as far as I’m concerned,

everywhere, period. See you in March.Till then, remember... ShowSight Magazine wishes you ALL THE BEST!

THE HOME OF PUREBRED DOGS MESSAGE FROM THE PUBLISHER

AJ ARAPOVIC

Dear Friends,

It’s the beginning of the year and all of us are still trying to figure out what we want to accomplish in 2018. At Aramedia, we’re busy preparing the launch of our new Spring offerings, and we know that you’ve been busy too. So, I just want to take a moment to thank all the kennel clubs for their commitment to the promotion of purebred dogs in their communities. Although they work tirelessly all year long, they don’t often get as much positive publicity as they deserve. I think that should change. Their members’ hard work should receive as much of the credit for promoting purebred dogs as everyone else. (It’s a real accomplishment to put on a successful dog show these days!) The dedication of club members who spend countless hours, month after month, putting on our shows is the real reason we can all gather together as one big dog-loving family. Our clubs are the real HOME OF PUREBRED DOGS. As we were preparing our January and February issues of SHOWSIGHT, we took the time to speak with hundreds of clients about the kennel clubs that hosted shows at the beginning of this year. I’m happy to report that the reviews were extremely positive. So, to the participating clubs of the Brooksville Circuit, Palm Springs, Portland and all the other localities, I just want to say “hats off” for your tremendous achievements. It is so refreshing to hear all the positive news about you and your shows. Your success bodes well for the coming year. Aramedia has also been working hard to make improvements on behalf of purebred dogs. We’ve achieved most of the goals we set for last year and we’re looking to do the same in 2018. It is our duty to continue to improve our performance by becoming a greater asset to the sport. As a community, we want to maintain your trust in us by providing you with the finest service for the benefit of you, your dogs and the sport we all love. So, as the new year shifts into high gear, I’d like to thank you for your commitment to the sport and for allowing us to help you celebrate your hard work and dedication. To those of you with a dog that’s just beginning its career, we wish you the very best. And to those who are retiring a beloved champion at the Garden, we hope that you make memories that you’ll cherish forever.

In 1877, New York was well on its way to becoming the world’s greatest city. This was the year that a group of sporting gentlemen decided that this would be a good time to hold a dog show in Manhattan. It didn’t take long before the Westminster Kennel Club, following the lead of its home town, would be on its way to becoming the world’s greatest dog show... THE COLORFUL HISTORY OF AMERICA’S DOG SHOW WESTMINSTER KENNEL CLUB COURTESY WKC

extended to four days from its origi- nally-scheduled three, and drew this coverage from “Forest and Stream” magazine: “To say that the dog show held in the city last week was a success would but poorly convey an idea of what the result really was. It was a magnificent triumph for the dogs and for the pro- jectors of the show. We question if on any previous occasion has there ever assembled in this city such a number of people at one time, and represent- ing as much of the culture, wealth and fashion of the town.” To fully grasp the place in history of the Westminster Kennel Club and its famed annual dog show at Madison Square Garden, consider this: Westminster pre-dates the invention of the light bulb, the automobile, and the zipper; the building of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Washington Monument; and manned air flight and the establishment of the World Series. Since Westminster held its first show 127 years ago, there have been 26 men elected president and 12 states have joined the union. The dog show has outlasted three pre-

It was at one of those meetings that the members decided that they would stage a dog show so that they could compare their dogs in a setting away from the field. The First Annual New York Bench Show of Dogs, given under the auspices of the Westminster Kennel Club, was staged in 1877 at Gilmore’s Garden (the forerunner of Madison Square Garden) in New York City, drawing an entry of 1,201 dogs. The show was such a hit that it was

With its spectacular beginnings and extraordinary growth in the years to follow, the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show was quickly reflecting the growth and success of New York City. As the dog show grew every year, so did the Westminster Kennel Club’s position as the symbol of the pure- bred dog, with its influence being felt in show rings everywhere, and even- tually in millions of television homes across the country. Westminster has become America’s Dog Show. “Westminster gets its name from a long gone hotel in Manhattan. There, sporting gentlemen used to meet in the bar to drink and lie about their shooting accomplishments. Eventually they formed a club and bought a train- ing area and kennel. They kept their dogs there and hired a trainer. “They couldn’t agree on the name for their new club. But finally someone suggested that they name it after their favorite bar. The idea was unanimous- ly selected, we imagine, with the hoisting of a dozen drinking arms.” – Maxwell Riddle, from a newspaper story quoted in “The Dog Show, 125 Years of Westminster” by William Stifel

vious versions of Madison Square Garden, and is currently being staged in MSG IV. It is one of only four events to be held in all four “Gardens.” The dog show has survived power out- ages, snowstorms, a national depres- sion, two World Wars and a tugboat strike that threatened to shut down the city, in the process becoming the sec- ond longest continuously held sporting event in the country. Only the Kentucky Derby has been staged longer – but by just one year. Westminster even pre-dates the estab- lishment of the governing body of the sport, the American Kennel Club, by seven years. In fact, in 1877, members of Westminster and members of the Kennel Club of Philadelphia had togeth- er adopted a set of show rules and reg- ulations and established a Board of Appeals to oversee these rules. This was the precursor of the American Kennel Club, which was finally created in 1884. As one might imagine, the history of the club and its show is rich and colorful. In the early Westminster years, some interesting names showed up in the cat- alogs. In the first show, there were two Staghounds listed as being from the late General George Custer’s pack, and two Deerhounds that had been bred by the Queen of England. In 1889, the Czar of Russia is listed as the breeder of a Siberian Wolfhound entered, and the following year, one of the entries is a Russian Wolfhound whose listed owner was the Emperor of Germany. Philanthropist J. P. Morgan made the first of his many appearances at Westminster with his Collies in 1893. Famous American journalist Nelly Bly entered her Maltese at Westminster in 1894, some four years after she made a record-breaking trip around the world in 72 days, 6 hours and 11 minutes, rac- ing the record of Phineas Fogg in Jules Verne’s Around the World in 80 Days. The most-coveted award in the dog show world, Best In Show at Westminster, was given for the first time in 1907. That year, and for the next two years as well, it went to a Smooth Fox Terrier bitch named Ch. Warren Remedy. She remains the only dog ever to win three times. Six other dogs have won Best In Show twice, the most recent being the English Springer Spaniel, Ch. Chinoe’s Adamant James in 1971 and 1972. n

CH. WARREN REMEDY , (1905-1912), was Best in Show winner of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in 1907, 1908, and 1909. She was a Smooth-coated fox terrier owned by Winthrop

Rutherfurd, and is the only dog to have won Westminster three years in a row. Remedy was sired by Sabine Resist from Routon Dainty. She was bred by Winthrop Rutherfurd, and brought up at the Warren Kennels in Allamuchy Township, New Jersey.

The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show introduced a Best in Show com- petition in 1907, the first since the show's inception in 1877. At the age of 20 months, Warren Remedy was entered in the competition and progressed through breed and group victories into the Best in Show round. She faced off against sixteen other breeds of dogs. These included the Rough Collie Squire of Tytton, who had won the Van Schaick Cup earlier in the show, and the English Sheepdog Dolly Gray, who won the Castle Gould Cup. Ten judges preceded over the Best in Show round and awarded the title to Warren Remedy. Immediately afterwards, Remedy competed once again at the show, this time for Ballyhoo Bay Challenge Cup awarded by the Ladies Kennel Association of America. A similar lineup of dogs competed for the trophy, with the exception of Squire of Tytton being replaced with the American-bred Rough Collie Mountaineer Magistrate. Remedy was expected to win this title as well, but it was instead awarded to the English Setter Deodora Prince. Remedy retained the Best in Show title at the Westminster Kennel Club show in 1908, and afterwards was declared to be the "best dog of her kind in America". She won Westminster once again in 1909, although reports mis- takenly gave her name as "Warren Rutherford". At the 1910 Westminster Show, Remedy was beaten in what was viewed as a surprise victory in the best Smooth Fox Terrier bitch contest by Sabine Fernie. Fernie went on to be beaten by fellow Sabine Kennel's dog, Sabine Rarebit in the best overall Smooth Fox Terrier contest. Rarebit went on to win the Best in Show title, the first time it had been awarded to a dog other than Warren Remedy. Warren Remedy's death was reported by The New York Times on December 17, 1912. She died in the Warren Kennels on Winthrop Rutherfurd's farm in Allamuchy Township. Warren Remedy remains the only dog to have won Best in Show at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show on three occasions, the most victories by any single dog. Bronze statues were later crafted of Remedy's form by Ric Chashoudian. These statues were used as awards to show dog owners for a series of awards by the Westminster Kennel Club. Likewise, crystal statues were created of Warren Remedy were created for the handlers of the show dogs. n

Westminster, The One and Only New York is (Still) the Center of the Dog World BY DAN SAYERS

W hy on earth would any- one think it’s a good idea to bring a dog to midtown Man- hattan in the dead of winter? After all, a less convenient destination (and time of year) could not be considered for holding an all-breed dog show. Nevertheless, despite the pre- dictable threats from weather

As the chief European trading post in the New World, the city was poised to become a commercial powerhouse. While Philadelphia, Baltimore and Charleston cultivated their own identities as centers of philosophy, education and civic obligation, New York was unabashedly exerting its muscle to become North America’s financial capital. From its inception, the city beckoned men in search of fame and fortune. In 1773, Alexander Hamilton arrived from his island home of Nevis by way of Boston. The man who would become America’s first Secretary of the Treasury discovered a bustling center that had become the British colonies’ political and military center. For their part, 18th century New Yorkers were beginning to resent the Crown’s control over their affairs. On November 25, 1783, after years of battles won and lost, General George Washington’s army permanently expelled the British from the city. The stage was now set to establish an independent form of government. Beginning in 1785, Congress met in New York under the Articles of the Confederation and, under the Constitution, the city became the fledgling nation’s capi- tal city. On April 30, 1789, Washington took the oath as first President of the United States. A statue now stands on Wall Street to commemorate the occasion at the northern bound- ary of the original Dutch fort. New York continued to grow as an economic center with the opening of the Erie Canal. Completed in 1825, the water- way connected the city to both its European trading partners and to the untapped riches of the continent’s interior. Grain and lumber intended for Europe soon filled barges enroute to the port city and beyond. When oil was discovered in Penn- sylvania, railways were built to replace the canal system. The Pennsylvania Railroad, established in 1846 and headquar- tered in Philadelphia, built a grand terminal in New York’s midtown. The original Pennsylvania Station was a Beaux-Arts masterpiece that occupied two city blocks. The structure was unceremoniously replaced in 1968 with a subterranean com- plex that sits directly beneath the current Madison Square Garden at 4 Pennsylvania Plaza.

forecasters and union organizers, fanciers rarely hesitate to make the February pilgrimage to New York City. For the past 142 years, exhibitors have loyally returned for a chance to compete in Madison Square Garden’s iconic arena. Their rea- sons for doing so are as varied as the exhibitors themselves, yet each return visit is inextricably linked to both the devel- opment of the sport in America and the history of our nation’s greatest metropolis. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION To begin to understand Westminster’s eternal allure, it is essential to first understand the significance of the show’s New York location. Ever since the first Europeans arrived in 1626 on what would become the island of Manhattan, the area has been a destination for fortune and adventure seek- ers. New Amsterdam, as it was originally called by the Dutch West Indies Company, was purchased from the Lenape Indi- ans for 60 guilders ($1,050 in 2015). A fur trading post was quickly established and a fort constructed to defend against curious locals and marauding Europeans. The latter proved the greater threat, since the English successfully took con- trol of the island and its surrounding lands in 1664. Renamed New York, the area was briefly regained by the Dutch before it was permanently ceded to the English in exchange for what is now the South American country of Suriname.

Westminster, The One and Only: New York is (Still) the Center of the Dog World BY DAN SAYERS continued PEERAGE AND PEDIGREE

18 variations representing 26 American cities. Smaller regions within the scope of the New York Social Register have published “blue books” of their own. The Morris Social Directory lists nota- ble residents of Morris County, New Jersey, where many Manhattan families built “country residences” with self-sus- taining farms. One such manor, Giralda Farms in Madison, New Jersey, was the estate of Geraldine Rockefeller Dodge, hostess of the original Morris and Essex Kennel Club dog show. Morris County is named for Colo- nel Lewis Morris, the Welsh-born Brit- ish Governor of New Jersey from 1738

elevated the circumstances of indus- trialist and immigrant alike. Not sur- prisingly, the descendants of the city’s original Dutch, English and Huguenot merchants that comprised the social elite were unimpressed by all the new- found wealth. The Astors, Newbolds and Van Rensselaers remained dutifully unimpressed with the nouveau riche . By the mid-nineteenth century, it had become impossible for “Knicker- bockers” to distinguish “old” money from “new.” So, in 1886, a solution was devised with the publication of a Social Register. Modeled after Burke’s Peerage in the U.K., the New York list spawned

The railroad and oil companies that funneled people and produce into New York soon made their owners very rich. The industrialist J. Edgar Thomson led the Pennsylvania Railroad to become the world’s largest business enterprise at the time. His great admirer, Andrew Carnegie, was another Pennsylvanian who made a fortune, but in steel. In New York, industrialist John D. Rock- efeller built the world’s first and larg- est multinational corporation, Standard Oil. The fortunes of these and other men ushered in The Gilded Age, a peri- od of unprecedented prosperity that

“IN THE NEW MILLENIUM, A VICTORY AT THE GARDEN LARGELY DEPENDS ON THE DEDICATION, STAMINA AND PERSEVERANCE OF THE WINNING DOG’S HANDLER. PEDIGREE STILL MATTERS, OF COURSE, BUT ONLY FOR THE DOG.”

to 1739. Morris was the first lord of the manor of Morrisania in what is now the Bronx. His grandson, also named Lewis Morris, was a signer of the Declaration of Independence. This Morris’ granddaughter, Sabina Morris, married Robert Walter Rutherfurd, a direct descendant of Peter Stuyves- ant, the last Dutch director-general of New Netherland. The couple had four children, including a son named Lewis Morris Rutherfurd who married Marga- ret Chanler Stuyvesant. Their young- est son, Winthrop Chanler Rutherfurd, constructed a “Big House” on a private game preserve in the Skylands of War- ren County, New Jersey. Mr. Ruther- furd was a keen dog fancier who bred Smooth Fox Terriers and founded the American Fox Terrier Club, serving as its first President. In 1907, his Ch. War- ren Remedy won the first Best in Show award offered by the Westminster Ken- nel Club. The imported bitch repeated the feat the following year and again in 1909. In Rutherfurd’s day, members of the haut monde mixed more easily with industry leaders and gentlemen who enjoyed trading stories of their dogs’ accomplishments in the field. Begin- ning in the 1870s, the bar of the West- minster Hotel near Union Square was the unoffical headquarters for a group of devoted dog men. To increase local interest, they organized the Westmin- ster Breeding Association and main- tained a kennel of Pointers. In 1876, the unincorporated collective staged a dog show in Philadelphia as part of America’s Centennial celebration. The event was so well received that the

members elected to hold another show the following year in New York. The First Annual New York Bench Show of Dogs was staged at the Hippodrome at Gilmore’s Garden (future site of the “old” Madison Square Garden at East 26th Street and Madison Avenue) under the auspices of the newly renamed Westminster Kennel Club. The three- day event generated so much interest that a fourth day was added with pro- ceeds donated to the ASPCA to found a home for stray and disabled dogs. MODERN MASTERS Throughout the 20th century, West- minster’s reputation as the nation’s pre- miere dog show spread far and wide. Though members of society continued to organize show activities and main- tain strict control over club affairs, the country’s expanding middle class allowed for greater participation. Pro- fessional handlers. originally the ken- nel managers of the fabulously wealthy. inspired many newcomers. These men (and, eventually, women) secured their reputations on the ability to select, condition and present a dog capable of defeating any and all competitors. For them, a win in New York granted entrée into a rarified fraternity. The list of last century’s Westmin- ster winners includes the names of fanciers who dedicated their lives to the interests of purebred dogs. Fred- erick Henry Farwell (Sabine), Bayard Warren (Barberry Hill), H. E. Mellen- thin (My Own), Sunny Shay (Gran- deur), Margaret P. Newcombe (Penny- worth) and Julia Gasow (Salilyn) are among the celebrated breeders to have

produced a Garden winner. Among the list of owners, Halleston, Blakeen and Maridor Kennels are revered by today’s senior exhibitors, as are Puttencove and Pool Forge. Individual owners of note include Dr. Milton E. Prickett, Anne E. Snelling and Edward B. Jenner. Per- haps the only genuine New Yorker to have bred, owned and handled a Best in Show winner at Westminster was Wal- ter Goodman who did so in 1969 with Skye Terrier Ch. Glamoor Good News. In the new millenium, a victory at the Garden largely depends on the dedication, stamina and perseverance of the winning dog’s handler. Pedigree still matters, of course, but only for the dog. Modern masters who’ve managed to lead their charge to the top of the list at Westminster include many house- hold names, thanks to the proliferation of cable television. Scott Sommer, Kellie Fitzgerald, Kaz Hosaka, Bill McFadden, Michelle Scott, Gabriel Rangel, Angela Lloyd, David Fitzpatrick, Ernesto Lara, Will Alexander and Valerie Nunes- Atkinson are some of the show’s best- known winners of late. Perhaps the individual who best exemplifies the spirit of Westminster’s founding mem- bers is Kent Boyles who handled last year’s winner, the German Shepherd GCh. Lockenhaus’ Rumor Has It V Ken- lyn. As the bitch’s breeder/owner-han- dler, Kent demonstrated why exhibitors choose to return to New York year after year. His first attempt at Garden glory in 2016 wasn’t enough. Kent’s triumphant 2017 win proves that serious dog folk will always come back to the city that never sleeps for one more shot at vic- tory—no matter the weather.
