MESSAGE FROMTHE PUBLISHER HAPPY NEWYEAR

AJ ARAPOVIC

Dear Friends, The end of a year and the beginning of a new one seems a natural time to draw upon lessons learned and reflect on all the things for which we are grateful. Last month, as we gathered with family and friends, we took time to appreciate the people in our lives whom we cherish most. I too have been taking time to give thanks for those whom I’ve been blessed to work with and come to know over the past year. Since becoming an owner of SHOWSIGHT MAGAZINE, I’ve personally made thousands of phone calls and sent countless emails to connect with our clients and readers. It’s been important for me to listen to what the most devoted fanciers have had to say so that we could take our publication to another level — which we have. Our followers and readership went up by over 30 percent in the last eight months! There are many people to thank for this, most importantly our clients who are supporting us month in and month out, and our employees who work day and night to bring you a publication as wonderful as SHOWSIGHT. Whenever I connect in person or via phone, I try to make every single person smile as much as possible. I understand that no two people are alike and that our clients and readers come from vari- ous cultures and every corner of the country — and the world. I’ve learned that what unites all of us is our love for dogs and the community created by SHOWSIGHT’s clients and readers. This is an immense responsibility and one that I know every member of the SHOWSIGHT family takes very seriously. We understand that we will always have further to go before we fully reach your expecta- tions and our own ambitions as a publication. We thank you for your confidence in us. Personally, it is a privilege to work for you, the dog show community. I promise that I will forever be grateful to you for taking me in as a young kid and helping to transform me into the family man I am today. I hope that you see the efforts our SHOWSIGHT team members have been making to ensure every client feels valued and supported. Above all, I hope that you know the sense of privilege we feel in serving you. Happy New Year to you, your family and friends. May 2018 be your best yet! See you soon. Yours truly,

FROM THE EXECUTIVE EDITOR EMERITUS Joseph Neil McGinnis III AKC NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP BREAKS ALL RECORDS

It is with great pride that I posed for this photo with Dennis B. Sprung, President & CEO of The American Kennel Club and Show Chairman for the AKC National Championship. To say that his work on this behalf is legion is an understatement; my admiration for him and his team knows no bounds. And it was with great pleasure that I attended my seventeenth such event, one for each year since its inception. I’ve watched this show grow from a great idea to a monumental addition to the sport of dogs, and I’m gratified to have been able to be there, ring- side, each step of the way.

Photo: Daniel J. Cartier

Everyone in attendance was stunned at the vast array of breed booths boasting of and celebrating purebred dogs. I could fill every page of this issue myself with thoughts on this show that ended a calendar year and set a new example for the future; fortunately we have many more voices and visions to share. Enjoy our coverage in addition to our regular, wonderful content. ShowSight’s eyes and ears were all over AKCNC. I do, though, want to say one more thing... Perhaps what’s most unique about this event is that it is our show. Each one of us who owns a purebred dog is a de facto member of the show-giving club. You don’t have to be a Delegate or a Board Member or an actual employee of AKC to derive pride and pleasure in this, our annual con- vention. This show can be compared to none other, and only has itself to top. I have no doubt it will continue to do so. As a guy who’s spent going on fifty years in this sport, from fledgling breeder/exhibitor to seasoned breeder/owner/handler to retired dog-magazine publisher to now AKC judge, I can only say that my enthusiasm hasn’t dimmed and my hopes for our future remain shining bright. I personally thank Mr. Sprung and all involved for their service to our world. And I wish you the very best of New Years as we enter a new calendar year full of dreams to be fulfilled and fun to be had with our dogs and our fellow fanciers. I’ve had fun all along the way,

Of course, it’s wrong to lay all the credit on the shoulders of one man; this undertaking has been a concerted, cohe- sive effort from day one. Although most of my experience with this show has been working with Mr. Sprung, Gina DiNardo, Michael Canalizo and Paula Spector, all of whose work in making AKCNC what it is today should be recog- nized by all, there are way too many to applaud and thank to mention here. Suffice it to say—and I regret that I cannot include every single name—that we all send gratitude and thanks. Should anyone question the relevance of this event, I simply say this: look at the numbers. We’re not that easy to please, so if this weren’t providing us a great deal in what- ever we look for as exhibitor, spectator, fancier, et cetera, they wouldn’t tally up the way they do. And do they ever. Numbers for each individual branch of this towering tree seem up from those previously recorded, and the newest addition to the ranks, the Puppy/Junior Stakes, blew through the predicted roof. Mrs. Kamie McHenry Eckart, President of sponsor Royal Canin, told me over dinner “We had hoped for five hundred entries. When we went over a thousand we were absolutely astounded.” With a total entry of 1229, its planners and fans have seen their vision vindi- cated, indeed. It was my distinct honor to again this year Chair the Best Booth Contest for AKC’s MEET THE BREEDS®, another event breaking records from times past and taxing the abil- ities of our stellar panel of judges. My admiration for the work of the parent and affiliated breed clubs on behalf of the dogs they favor is huge because believe me, their plan- ning and execution hours are long and enervating.

and I don’t intend to stop now. Join me. I’ll see you ringside.

Herd Mentality

Finding Inspiration from Livestock Breeders BY DAN SAYERS, Photography by Yann Arthus-Bertrand from the book Good Breeding

T he breeding of dogs for the conforma- tion show ring is rooted in the tradi- tions practiced by livestock breeders. However, unlike their farm animal counter- parts, today’s show dogs are largely produced with no greater expectation than to look the part of their ances- tors while running around a ring in hopes of garnering a

ribbon. Though many modern-day purebreds remain capable of performing their time-honored roles to some degree, the emphasis on their propagation and performance has increas- ingly strayed from their historic functions. As dogs become increasingly viewed by society as “people” instead of “pets” (or property), their very essence is being diminished. Some dogs can even appear so spoiled as to put their owners — and breeders — to shame. This is hardly the case for animals bred for the butcher, even those entered at livestock shows. After all, a cow’s conformation depends less on reach and drive and more on flank and sirloin. When it comes to pro- ducing animals intended for the dinner table, breeders must remain true to their animals’ heritage. They cannot afford to put undue emphasis on the “trimmings.” In this regard, dedi- cated dog breeders might do well to adopt a “herd” mentality and find inspiration from cattle, sheep and alpaca breeders.

Herd Mentality: Finding Inspiration from Livestock Breeders

BY DAN SAYERS continued

The ability to assess the quality of domestic animals is as old as domes- tication itself. Over millennia, shep- herds and cattle drovers improved their stock by sparing those animals capable of reproducing the quality of their wool or meat. For countless gen- erations, only the finest rams and fit- test of bulls were permitted to pass

along their desirable characteristics. This was true for ewes and cows that were also expected to be good moth- ers. Success in breeding wasn’t truly measured until those animals intended for slaughter had reached maturity, thus providing a return on the investment of fodder, labor and time. Likewise, sheep and cattle dogs did not pass

along their strength and agility simply becaused they were pretty or came when called. They too had to prove themselves by keeping their herds safe from predation. Although livestock shows came to the fore in the 19th century, they’ve actually been taking place for thousands of years. (Camels have been assessed

Herd Mentality: Finding Inspiration from Livestock Breeders

BY DAN SAYERS continued

Australian Merino Rams presented by their owners, Emilio Jorge and his wife, Susana Ferro, of Cabaña “La Adela.” (Valdés Peninsula, Chubut Province, Argentina)

on the sands of the Arabian Peninsula since Biblical times.) However, the busi- ness of breeding and showing stock didn’t switch into overdrive until the 1950s. During this period, breeders of Appaloosas and Appenzeller Sen- nenhundes—not to mention Abyssin- ian cats and Abbyssinian guinea pigs— gathered in large numbers at state fairs and town halls throughout much of Europe and America. State-sponsored events and private clubs hosted com- petitions that drew exhibitors from far and wide. Always at stake was the honor of taking home awards bestowed by expert adjudicators. Best in Show

eventually became the ultimate prize, coveted by breeders of rabbits, canar- ies and pedigreed dogs alike. Unfortu- nately, the desire to be considered “the best of the best” has resulted in compe- titions less focused on breeding stock and more focused on winning with any- body’s stock. And despite the fanfare that has become associated with many animal exhibitions held throughout the world, the desire to win at all costs has brought about a despair for some. Only the most passionate of breeders can stay the course. This is why it is so impor- tant to find inspiration from breeders of every ilk.

Livestock shows can be a great source of inspiration for the dog breed- er. Discovering “new” varieties of rabbit and poultry can do wonders for some- one no longer impressed with the sight of a Bracco Italiano or Bergamasco. And talking with breeders of goats or don- keys can remind any dog breeder that every domestic animal deserves to be protected. Dog breeders may not sup- ply food for the table or fibre to be spun into yarn, but we do provide the world with the hardest-working and most devoted companion animals on the planet. What could possibly be more inspiring than that?

Doug Ljungren Presents AKC Lifetime Achievement Awards BY LINDA AYERS TURNER KNORR

O ur AKC Delegates December meet- ings take place two days prior to the AKC National Champion- ship presented by Royal Canin. The setting in Orlando, Florida during a week of dog shows and special events is the per- fect place to honor those who have made a difference in our sport.

She has successfully bred Basset Hounds for more than 25 years under the Topsfield prefix and with her late husband, Dom, has produced over 140 champions. Topsfield Bassets have won more than 100 All-Breed Bests in Show and hold numerous Breed and All-Breed show records. The top group- winning dog and the top-producing dam in the history of the breed were bred by Topsfield and the top winning dam was sired by a Topsfield dog. Claudia was the recipient of the 2009 AKC Breeder of the Year award. Her enthusiasm for breeding is matched only by her pas- sion for teaching and working with other breeders. Her ABC’s of Dog Breeding and Practical Canine Anatomy & Movement self-study courses form part of AKC’s breed- er education program, reflecting her belief that anyone can understand the practical rules of genetics and canine structure in their quest to breed better, healthier dogs. Knowledge, coupled with integrity and honesty about health problems, are cornerstones of her breeding and teaching philosophy. Claudia has authored numerous articles and for many years chaired BHCA Judges’ and Breeders’ Education for which she developed an educational concept called Basset Hound Uni- versity, whose course designs are available for parent clubs to use as templates. She has spoken at over 150 dog clubs and AKC/CHF Breeder’s Symposia. Claudia was honored by Dog Fancy Magazine as one of the “45 people who changed the dog world” by helping to improve dog breeding and making canine genetics easier to understand. Patricia R. Krause had been in the sport for more than 50 years before her death in May. She showed Irish Setters in obedience, conformation and field events. She also earned numerous titles in obedience with her Border Collies and Champion Pomeranian. She was the Assistant Director of

Each year at the Delegates’ luncheon the winners of the American Kennel Club. Lifetime Achievement Awards are honored. AKC Executive Vice President of Sports and Events Doug Ljungren spoke about each recipient presenting them with an Revere engraved bowl. A Tiffany and Company ster- ling silver bowl engraved with the names of all honorees past and present is proudly displayed at our AKC headquarters in New York City. The Lifetime Achievement Awards are the creation of AKC President and CEO, Dennis Sprung. Recipients are selected by members of the fancy in recognition of their many years of selfless dedication, which have significantly contributed to our sport on a national level. The recipients honored at this year’s luncheon on Decem- ber 15, are Conformation, Dr. Claudia Orlando; Companion Events, Patricia R. Krause; Performance, Judy Powers. The sport mourns the loss of Patricia Krause last May. She would be so proud of her daughter, Lori Barrie, who accepted the award for her mother. It is inspirational to read about the accomplishments of these members of our sport: Dr. Claudia Orlandi, of Essex Junction, Vermont, has been in the fancy for over 50 years.

“TO YOU, ALL OF MY FRIENDS MADE ALONG THE WAY, I LOVE YOU AND ALL THE MEMORIES WE HAVE CREATED TOGETHER!”

—LINDA AYERS TURNER KNORR

Training at K-9 Obedience Training Club of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, the Director of Training for the Irish Setter Club of Milwaukee, and a pri- vate trainer at several other clubs in the Milwaukee area. Pat was an Obedience Judge for more than 40 years. She judged for 25 years before becoming the AKC Director of Obedience in 1999. In 2000, she was named AKC AVP of Companion Events. Her five years as AVP saw the growth of AKC agility and the introduction of AKC rally, which is among the most successful programs AKC’s recent his- tory. It was during this tenure that she had the privilege of accompanying the 2004/2005 USA Obedience Teams to the Crufts World Cup Competition. Pat was honored to judge the 2007 Crufts Obedience World Cup Competition.

In the January 2005 AKC Gazette, Pat explained how she and her staff spent four years refining AKC rally before its debut on New Year’s Eve, 2004: “We would have test sessions here in the parking lot in Raleigh. We’d bring our own dogs, set up signs, and run different exercises, trying to decide what would work and what wouldn’t. It took a long time to be satisfied we had a sport agreeable to dogs of all breeds and people of all ages.” In May 2005 Krause retired from AKC and resumed judging Obedience and Rally. In her spare time, she vol- unteered at the Northwoods’ Wildlife Rehabilitation Center as an animal/rap- tor rescuer and rehabilitator. Judy Powers, of Sheboygan, Wiscon- sin, and her husband Jim, have been training and competing with their Lab- rador Retrievers and contributing to AKC member clubs for more than 35 years. Judy is a “life member” of Wis- consin Amateur Field Trial Club for 36 years, serving as Field Trial Secretary for 32 years; “life member” of Manito- woc County Kennel Club for 36 years, serving as field trial secretary for 26 years; Women’s Field Trial Club for 16 years, serving as Board Member and Treasurer for 11 years; and is a member of the Badger Golden Retriever Club. She continues to contribute to retriev- er organizations whenever requested, including marshaling, judging, heading committees and/or working in the field. She aspires to do everything she can to ensure the continuance of this wonder- ful sport of dogs.

Judy has judged 79 major Retriever stakes, 19 minor Retriever stakes, and the 2010 National Amateur Retriever Championship. She has served on mar- shals’ committees for another eight national events. She was board member of the National Retriever Club during the 16-year term. She served as marshal, chief marshal, Vice President and Presi- dent (2002) during her board term. In 2016, Judy was elected by her peers into the Retriever Hall of Fame in Grand Junction, Tennessee, where she joins the Powers’ two-time National Amateur Retriever Champion Candle- woods Ramblin Man, inducted in 2012. She and her husband have owned and titled ten championship dogs including 2XNAF FC Candlewoods Ramblin Man. Judy has titled four Labrador Retrievers and was a finalist with FC AFC Badger State Ram Kicker in 2008 National Ama- teur Retriever Championship in Stowe, Vermont. Judy and Jim are AKC recog- nized as Breeders of Merit of Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers. With 2017 coming to an end, it is a great time of reflection for me. What a blessing that my parents Roy and Hazel Ayers chose American Kennel Club events and the sports of purebred dogs for our family hobby. Seventy years is a long time to be engaged in an activity that brings such joy. I remember each dog from all the years. My father always said, “Friends are the most wonderful part of living”. To you, all of my friends made along the way, I love you and all the memories we have created togeth- er! HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Interviews with the Partners of our Better-Known Judges, Breeders and Professional Handlers BEN THUM, HUSBAND OF BETTY-ANNE STENMARK, WHO WILL BE JUDGING BEST IN SHOW AT WESTMINSTER IN FEBRUARY 2018 by ALLAN REZNIK

What is your profession? Television producer and voice actor.

Where, when and how did the two of you meet? We met several years ago by chance via the Internet. How was it to marry into the dogs? Did you know anything about the dog show world prior to meeting Betty-Anne? Being introduced to the world of show dogs has been fascinating and quite educational. It’s a vast uni- verse rich in history, beauty and delicious gossip. How many dogs do you currently own? We have two Dandie Dinmonts and a litter of three, plus a Poodle-Bichon mix that Betty-Anne has chosen to groom in a decidedly Dandie-like fashion. Who does most of the cooking? That would be Betty-Anne. She is a great cook and a gifted baker as well. I bat clean-up and also double as her personal sommelier. Who does most of the grooming? Betty-Anne is the groomer and I am the sweeper. Does Betty-Anne indulge in any particular ritu- als before leaving to judge a show? She is a meticulous packer and rarely forgets to bring all that she needs with her. She organizes her breed standards for the upcoming weekend to review on the plane. Do you attend many dog shows? When we first met, I attended quite a few. Late- ly, I’ve become the chief dog sitter, a role I am well suited for. Have you ever exhibited a dog in the ring or wanted to become active in the sport? Not in this lifetime. My sport is handball but I love watching dog shows. How does Betty-Anne decompress when she gets home from a show? Bathing and grooming the dogs, reading novels, keeping up on world events, enjoying classical music and staying in touch with a multitude of friends via email and Facebook. What hobbies and interests do you enjoy together? Travelling with our dogs, hiking, dining out, land- scaping and decorating our new home. Is there much dog show "pillow talk," rehashing the weekend's events? Depends on the show. Lately we have been talk- ing about a soon-to-arrive Dandie puppy and my dog- related TV pilot project.

“BEING INTRODUCED TO THE WORLD OF SHOW DOGS HAS BEEN FASCINATING AND QUITE EDUCATIONAL.”

closest open emergency clinic was an hour away by winding mountain single lane road, dark dangerous night-driving. We tried Bloating is not unusual in large breed dogs. Back in the 70s we learned with my Aki- tas what really causes bloat but when my tiny Toy Fox Terrier, a nursing mother, began to bloat up on Christmas Eve I was desperate. J Big breeds are more prone to bloat and deadly gastric tor- sion simply because they eat more grains and less meat than toy breed dogs. Even a small amount of the wrong food can produce enough gas to cause stomach distension which can lead to gastric torsion which is often fatal… Sure it’s more expensive to feed big dogs meat. Our Akitas were big eaters! We scavenged slaughter houses back in the 70s and showing Quarter Horses kept us in touch with local ranchers. But by the turn of the century things had changed. Our breed got smaller (smile) and we found a great com- mercial source for raw beef and venison. So no matter where you live or what breed you have, with a little research you can find a local slaughter house that will sell deer, sheep, or horse meat or in some cases, raw beef “not for human consumption.”

burping her but it wasn't working. Then I remembered Gas– X. It was one of those “first aid” things we had always kept for our big dogs. I began frantically searching cabinets and finally found the box! It was years out of date and it’s for people, not a 6 pound dog. No matter, I didn’t hesitate, broke a tablet into quarters, wet it and popped a piece down the back of her throat. I began burping her again, like you would a baby but with

both hands on each side of her belly, working from loin to rib cage. It helps if you have someone to steady and hold the dog upright while you burp from behind. If you have a large breed stand the dog up against the wall, a fence or a friend (!) I never heard (or smelled) her belch but in little more than a minute she began to relax. When I set her down on the floor her belly was definitely

smaller. I put her in with her puppies, they swarmed her and when she laid down to nurse them I cried with relief. We watched over her for another hour. She was fine. I was beat! I tell you this because it was a lesson to me as regards “which breeds bloat.” It also brought home why toy dogs are less likely to bloat and potentially go into gastric torsion. Large and giant breeds require more food and statistically, big dogs are fed more dry dog food . What happens when you soak dry kibble? It swells up. It does the same thing in the dog’s stomach. When absorbing moisture, grains release gases such as hydrogen, carbon dioxide and methane. The larger the breed, the more they tend to “wolf down” their food. Dogs are descended from wild carnivores and as such they are programmed to eat as much as they can as fast as they can… When dogs eat naturally they don’t nibble, they gulp down their food and in the process, they swallow air. So why don’t wild dogs bloat? The answer is simple. They don’t eat dog food. Wild carnivores eat meat, organ meats first, then large chunks of muscle meat and digested vegeta- tion in the stomach and intestines. Raw meat, even cooked meat, does not produce the gasses that cause bloat.

been raised without use of antibiotics or growth hormones. But is organic corn, rice, wheat, etc. good for your dog? No. In your search engine, type “video theater gastric torsion bloat” and see how to recognize early signs of bloat! ABOUT THE AUTHOR Barbara J. Andrews published The Akita Handbooks and instituted the Register Of Merit system for top producing sires and dams in 1974. Bill and “BJ” set multiple breed records in Rottweilers, Akitas, and Miniature Bull Terriers. She now owns 7 Toy Fox Terriers.
