Showsight - January 2022

SHOWSIGHT PRESENTS: ALSO IN THIS ISSUE... THE SPORTING GROUP

The Sporting Group is featured through interviews with leading Judges, including BARBARA BURNS, BETSY HORN HUMER, CIN - DY LANE, DR. NORBERT DEE, NENA DEE, MARK THRELFALL, and SID MARX. Sporting Dog Breeders share their opinions too, with LYNDA GALL, DAWN MEITH, DAN SAYERS, KATHY & SCOTT SHIFFLETT, WALTER & CAROL SOMMERFELT, and NANCY TUTHILL providing interviews that reveal their thoughts on confor - mation, performance, and field-titled dogs. In his interview with a pair of Master Breeders, ALLAN REZNIK introduces a couple who has been successfully promoting the dual pur- pose of two Sporting breeds for many years. BJ ANDREWS recalls the impact on her life—and heart—made by her very first dog, and in “Lines for Linda,” LINDA AYERS TURNER KNORR celebrates the extraordinary life of BETTY WHITE, a true champion for all dogs and animals. WALTER SOMMERFELT reviews two recent show clus - ters where he has judged, and he laments another postponement of Westminster, even as he celebrates the iconic show’s enduring legacy to the Sport of Dogs. And STEPHANIE SEABROOK HEDGEPATH continues with her series, Form Follows Function, with another insight - ful lesson, this one on how to measure proportions and find landmarks in several different breeds. As in every issue of SHOWSIGHT Magazine, you’ll find many can - did show photos taken by photographers like JEAN EDWARDS and JC PHOTOGRAPHY, and interviews with Show Chairs such as MARI - LYN PIPES of the Chisolm Trail Classic cluster in Stephenville, Texas. We hope that you enjoy reading this issue as much as we enjoyed putting it together for you.

Best Wishes Throughout 2022!
