As of 2005, there are 149 National breed clubs participating in the program.Heres how the PPCP Program works Pro Club members redeem weight circles from bags of participating Purinabrand dog foods. Purina tracks these weight circle submissions, and for every 100 of qualifying weight circle pointsearned by Pro Club members, Purina donates 10 to the participating national parent breed club.Points are accumulated throughout a calendar year, and in February, a check representing 10 percent of the value ofthe submitted weight circles for the year is evenly split between the participating national parent breed club and theAKC Canine Health Foundation. The donation that goes to the AKC Canine Health Foundation is eligible to bematched up to 100 percent by the Canine Health Foundation if it meets the Foundations funding guidelines.Jane LehtinenActing PresidentWith the ink just drying on the last pages of the catalog westarted the process over again planning next years specialty.Next year we hope to have a bigger and better specialty withthe National moving to the Clarion Hotel across town. Thisnew hotel has enough room to keep even the mostclaustrophobic person happy with 22,000 square feet ofroom to hold our specialty. We will not be lacking room here. The dates for next years National are March 9,10 and 11, 2009.I would like to thank some of those that I missed at the banquet for the wonderful help we had this year. Wewould not be able to hold our National each year if it were not for those who take time out of their busyschedules and volunteer their time to put on the nationals year after year. I would like to thank Vicky Palmer forher time and effort in choosing those wonderful trophies that we enjoyed this year. With her planning we hadlittle left over. Thanks to Judy Smith who sat all three days, giving Marge a breather so she could watch theshow for a change, at the table handing out catalogs and tickets. Special thanks to Bob Fiddick for the fun headds to the auctions each year. Donna Riehm and Marilynn Heestand deserve a big thank you for running ourWays and Means table that helps raise money needed to put on our show each year. Without these people wecould not do it. This club is a club of volunteers and we can always use more.This year we selected two new life members Marge Kransfelder and Fred Basset who have given a lot of theirtime to making this club work. They join a select group of members that we honor.We welcome Carol Leemhuis to the board as Dana has had to step down due to health issues.

V r. 1T5vPIHD. O Q -v434 - APC POMERANIAN REVIEW Annette Davis, CNA sk Us AnythingOur question for this issue is What can I do about my Poms doggie breathThe main cause of bad doggie breath is dental disease.Following are some suggestions to help1 Give puppies toys early. If they get in the habit of chewing on toys, they will keep their teeth much cleaner. Make sure anytoys given do not have small pieces that could be chewed off and choked on.2 Feed a premium dry food as much as possible. Canned food, low quality foods that contain sugar, and many commerciallyprepared doggie treats promote tooth decay. If you want to give treats, you can boil liver or beef heart, cut it into smallpieces and keep it in a zip lock baggie in the freezer. Your liver or beef heart will last several months in a freezer baggie. Youcan also give small bits of cheese as treats.3 Give marrowbones often beef femur cut into 1" slices at the butcher. Be sure there are no sharp edges and boil toeliminate germs before giving. You can also offer things like chew toys, chew hooves, rawhide chews, and pig ears.4 If your Poms teeth have scale that cannot be removed at home, you should have them professionally cleaned by yourveterinarian. After a professional cleaning, you can scale them yourself every month or so to keep them clean. Some peoplelike to use a doggie toothbrush and toothpaste to clean their dogs teeth each day. Other alternatives to a toothbrush are gauzeor a finger brush. Dental instruments for scaling, and dog toothbrushestoothpaste are available from most pet supplycatalogues.Poor gut health can also cause bad breath. In a healthy person or animal, beneficial microorganisms outnumber pathogenicmicroorganisms creating a state of intestinal balance. Disease, medications such as antibiotics, and even chronic stress killsbeneficial microorganisms allowing pathogenic microorganisms to multiply unchecked. Pathogenic microorganisms producefoul smelling waste, which results in bad breath. Along with proper dental care, probiotic beneficial bacteria supplements,digestive enzymes, and green supplements such as spirulina can quickly improve your dogs breath.Health problems such as kidney disease and lung disease can also cause bad breath. Your veterinarian should be consulted ifthe problem persists.Our next question is What can I do to help my Pom lose weightYou may direct new questions or answers to these questions toAnnette Davis, 391 N.

Who wouldhave thought that at the YOUNG age of 51 I would begetting ready to enjoy the pleasure of my first hipreplacement I have taken a break from showing sincelast November due to my hip and will receive my newhip on March 17, and with rehab will hopefully beshowing again in May.Looking back over the past 15 years of showing dogsand limited dog breeding experience, I have to behonest and admit that I actually stumbled into theaddictive sport of showing dogs. I feel blessed to havemade so many wonderful friends through this sport soyou will hear about them throughout my article,although some of them may not admit to knowing mein publicMy partner Darryl and I were given our first champion from a wonderful friend of mine, Fran Terhune. WinstonCh. Seajoys Sir Winston Deloy was a beautiful 2-year-old fawn male pug. The only stipulation that Franplaced on us was that I continue to show Winston. This was a challenge that I thought might be something Icould take on and would enjoy as a new learning experience. Of course, being a total novice, and told that all Ineeded to do was attend a few handling classes to show a dog, I accepted the challenge.Well, it did not take me long to realize that I was learning this hobby backwards by starting out with a best ofbreed special, although I totally enjoyed it. After showing for a few months I realized that I needed to get a newpuppy to show, which I did. Through the breeder I met one of my first dog show friends, Bronya Johnston.For over a year Bronya told me that I needed to switch from Pugs to Pomeranians, that I would enjoy showingthis breed much more. Well, I hate to admit it, but she was right and I felt I had now switched to the breed I wasmeant to showThrough Bronya I met many of my now longtime friends, Annette Rogers-Rister, Charlotte Creed, Tim and SueGoddard, Barbara Moore, David and Carlene Gilstrap, Cindy Boulware, Darrell and Olga Baker, Leslie Stone,Renata Richter, Carolyn Crockett and many more including the now illustrious AKC Judge, well-known to thePom world, Judge Erika Moureau.My first homebred champion was Coal, Ch. Davins Midnight Eclipse, who was out of a lovely Tim Sue bitchCh. Tim Sues High as a Kite and sired by a Travis Ch. Finchs He Walks On Water son, Chad Ch.

Iwas encouraged by my good friends Dale and JaneMartenson to continue on with Coal as a special andhave always been thankful for their opinions.My next special was to be AmInt. Ch. Sugar Raes ImA Believer Mickey. I was so thrilled to get Mickeyto special after being referred to the breeder AngelaSemansky. Angela and I have become great friendsand after thousands of hours on the phone and tons oflaughs over the last five years. Now all we have left todo is to meet in personMickey was fantastic to show, a great mover withwonderful structure. Only a few weeks after I beganshowing Mickey he went Best of Breed at the SoonerPomeranian Club of Oklahoma City and not long afterwent Best of Breed at the DFW Pomeranian Clubunder Judge Vicki Abbott.

CLUB ii4_ n 440 - APC POMERANIAN REVIEWKennel Visit ContinuedWhile I was specialing Coal and Mickey I became verygood friends with Valerie Humbird who was specialingan incredible Brussels Griffon named Dartagnon. Atthis time I had decided it would be fun to learn anotherbreed to show, and through Valerie met Shirley Polsonof Gruffels Brussels Griffons. I love my Pomeraniansbut I have to tell you, Griffs are another wonderful Toybreed to own and show. I co-own two wonderful griffsthat I have had from about 3 months old.My first griff to finish was a male who we named RexCh. Gruffels You Take My Breath Away and about ayear later my partner and I received a cute little femalegriff, which we named Jade Ch. Gruffels ImperialJade. I loved showing the griffs and wouldrecommend them to anyone as a second breed, BUTthey are a handful when it comes to grooming Now Ireally really admire all the handlers who show anybreed that requires hand stripping I will probablyshow and finish a few more griffs down the road, and itwas a fun learning experience, but after finishing twogriffs I was ready to get back to my PomsThis is where I return to my good friend AngelaSemansky. I had let Angela breed to Coal and from thelitter he sired she had kept an adorable black boy thatlooked just like Coal. After showing him for a shorttime in her area she decided to send him to me tofinish. I could not believe how much he looked likeCoal so I had a good feeling about him finishingquickly and he did just that. Pie, Ch. Sugar Raes Pie inthe Sky. Not only did he finish quickly, but he finishedwith his second major and went best of breed at SoonerPomeranian Club of Oklahoma City under JudgeNorman Patton. What a thrill it was to call Angela andgive her the news.I was really looking forward to another great showcoming up, the Reliant Series of Dog Shows inHouston, Texas.

Itwas so much fun showing Pie, the son of my firstspecial Coal. When it was time to send Pie home Idecided to take a short break from showing.Of course, it was not long before Angela called andtold me she had two boys and she thought I might likeone to show for myself. Both boys were so cute I washaving a hard time deciding which boy to go with, so Iasked her when they were born. Well, that answeredmy question, when I found out the one I was to nameSonny had been born on my birthday he had to be theone So, Angela sent me yet another beautiful Pom tofinish and Sonny would become AmInt.Ch. SugarRaes I Got You Babe.

Evidence of this isconfirmed by the fact of the vast number of dogs and bitches that made theinitial and subsequent cuts throughout the judging.Thus I began the task of sorting out a very large class of wonderful 6-9 monthpuppy dogs.There were some very nice youngsters in the 9-12 month group to include a STAR, POWER POMS HIGH PERFORMANCE.He was an easy Reserve Winners Dog. I predict a great future for this little fella.The 12-18 month class was a real challenge in that first and second could have gone either way as both had different qualities to offer.The only class that I was not totally thrilled with was bred-by exhibitor. However, it brought forth one outstanding red young male,279 MOUNTAIN CREST U DONT OWN ME. He is a perfect size, stands well up on 4 great legs that move flawlessly fromevery angle. His coat is profuse and of good texture which will only improve with age. He very proudly led the final line up to goWINNERS DOG and subsequently BEST OF WINNERS.The bitch entry, though less in number, was almost on a par with the dogs quality-wise. A lovely sable youngster who caught myeye and heart immediately from the 12-18 month class prevailed to capture Winners Bitch. 156 STARFIRES TROUBLE INPARADISE completed her championship with this win. Reserve went to the stunning winner of the BBE Class, 96 CARLEEZON THE CATWALK.I loved my Veterans one and all. The Best Veteran, 130 CH. JANESAS RED HEADED VIXEN, an almost 10-year-old bitch,was in beautiful condition, sound as a dollar. The years have been kind to this old girl.The Specials Class of 64, with minimal absentees, was, as the young people would say, TOTALLY AWESOME, which necessitatedmy having to make several cuts. Finally, after much deliberation and consideration BEST OF BREED was awarded to CH.VELOCITYS SHAKE UR BON BON and BEST OF OPPOSITE SEX 106 CH. GAYELS DESTINYS CHILD. The award ofmerits were as follows 319 CH. RAZZLE DAZZLE HEAVENLY CHOIR dog, 110 CH. STARFIRES MAMACITA bitch,186 CH. JOLVIN REGAL RISK bitch, 111 CH. TIM SUES TRICK OR TREAT dog, 181 CH. STARFIRES HERECOMES TROUBLE dog. My only regret is that I didnt have at least 10 more AOM to award.With regard to the Awards of Merit, Dog 97 CANTON BRAVESTAR was a strong contender for the breed from the get-go.Somehow his number did not get transferred from my cut card to my stewards card and he was not called in for the final minutesof judging. It was an unintentional, unfortunate incident. However the very fact that he remained at the head of the line throughoutthe lions portion of the judging supports my appreciation of his excellence and intentions of a possible placement.BEST PUPPY was the Reserve Winners Dog POWER POMS HIGH PERFORMANCE. BEST BRED-BY was the Winners bitchand new CH. 156 STARFIRES TROUBLE IN PARADISE.The overall quality at his National was such that, in my opinion, it was the most outstanding assembly of Pomeranians that I willever hope to see. It was a thrill and a privilege to judge them.2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM49i i i invtm Ia1 --S 7w . i Jw 4r''VT14 3tImyw r4 4Fi r. n y'l J tAwW A. wi.50 - APC POMERANIAN REVIEWCH.

JANESAS SCARLETT LIVES ON IN TARA ownedby Marcia Cox and in first was CH. JANESAS RHETT HEADEDVIXEN owned by Marcia Cox. I found out these were litter sistersand it explained why I had such a hard time deciding between the twoof them. They both were very nice sized girls with lovely huge coatsand wonderful head type It was a tough choice.My Best Veteran in Sweepstakes went to CH.HEARTLANDS TOO TOUGH TO TOP. He won on presence andshowmanship. Best Of Opposite To Best Veteran went to CH.JANESAS SCARLETT LIVES ON IN TARA who was still solidand going strongI just wanted to give a few comments on how I decided myjudging. I must admit showmanship was at the top of my list. Profilesand the maintaining of those profiles during movement were next. Coatwas not wanting so was not really a factor except for the over groomingand lack of grooming on very few. There were a few placements thatmay have had a slight change because of this. But it did not affect thetop winners. Head types are so varied and I appreciate so many differenttypes that unless a dog was course I rarely faulted this. Bites, I do drawmy line in the sand here I wont use an undershot dog. Im pleased tosay I found less than a handful so it really wasnt a big consideration.Rears in general were good and fronts could use improvement. Therewere great tail sets out there Bravo Overall a striking bunch ofsuperb puppies were presented to me.I was so thrilled to see that Mrs. Michele Billings chose for her WinnersDog and Winners Bitch my Best Senior and Best of Opposite to BestSenior And what a lovely breed dog she chose.Thanks again for this privilege of judging these amazing dogsIt will definitely be one of the most memorable moments in my dogshowing years2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM54i i i in44rt-6I JS mifiy9PBt R...ai V JAPC POMERANIAN REVIEW - 55Sweepstakes 6 months and under 9 months, Dogs.1st JAN-SHARS LOUIE VUITTON, Owner Sharon Hanson.2nd LT CHERUBS CHASING A DREAM AT SUNSET, OwnerDarlene Davis Donald Wickham Sharon Wheeler.3rd HORIZON ANIMATION MIGHTY MOUSE, Owner LorindaVasuta Laurie Otis.4th GEEBEARS SHUT YOUR MOUTH, Owner Gina Williams Linda Pelz.Sweepstakes 9 months and under 12 months, Dogs.1st JOLVIN REGAL REPETITION, Owner Joan Melvin Beech Susan Popescu.2nd IF EVER RICKYS MOONLIGHT DANCE, Owner Jeanne R.Heger Judy Mehciz.3rd JAN-SHARS CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD, Owner SharonHanson.4th POWERPOM ROLLER COASTER, Owner Pongsakorn Pongsak.Sweepstakes 12 months and under 18 months, Dogs.1st Mountain Crest U Dont Own Me, Owner David Carlene Gilstrap2nd POMHAVENS THE HEAT IS ON, Owner Sandra Beisel Colleen Beland.3rd FOXWORTH FIVE CARD STUD, Owner Pamela Dodsworth Larry Fox.4th POMHAVENS U GOTTA HAVE FUN, Owner LeeAnn Lambert.Sweepstakes 6 months and under 9 months, Bitches.1st PEPERIE PETUNIA, Owner Peter Pettersen Victoria Oelerich.2nd ROBCARYS SOFTLY UPON MY HEART, Owner Caryl FennellScrimpsher.3rd STARFIRES WICKED WANDA, Owner Jose Cabrera FabianArienti.4th HONEYKIST ROCKN FANTASY OF PRUSSIA, Owner SallyHestle.Sweepstakes 9 months and under 12 months, Bitches.1st CH.

For some reason I am a self inflicting sap. Alwaysenjoy a good girly movie with love and laughter mixed with tears. Isuppose that is one of the things that draws us to rescue. The happysadness, the mixed emotions, the ups the downs, and the fabulous foreverhappy endings.It was February 2008 when a post came across the rescue messageboards POMS IN NEED.As a foster, of up to 8 or 9 Pomeranians at a time, I know better than tohit the read key.Yet, more often than not, I find myself waiting as the computer loads themost recent crisis for these sweet dear Pommies.This e-mail was announcing they were able to remove 20 of the 200Pomeranians found in trailer, in Southern Indiana. The dogs were beingdisbursed to rescue groups this very evening, and transport was goingfrom Bedford Indiana up through Ft. Wayne.Gee, Ft Wayne, is only 45 minutes from our home. I suppose we couldtake just one or two to help. Ten hours later we were loading six newdogs into our van and heading to our groomers home at 1000 PM atnight to begin to evaluate what was needed for each little raggedy soul.One little Pom was so covered in feces and urine we were told it was afemale, but after the shave down we discovered she was a HE - n intactHESoon, we took him to the vet and he was neutered, given a dental,wormed, vaccinated, micro-chipped, the works as we refer to it. He thenKasperby Joanne Norrislearned to wear a collar, walk on a leash, use the correct potty facilities and to trust people to give him unconditional love andaffection. Still, being un-socialized for several years he was not the first guy we would receive applications on and with his new hairdo he looked like a baby Harp Seal more than a Pomeranian.One woman, a kind hearted lady, who spends her days caring for others as a home aid for the Guardian Angels Hospice Agency, hadstarted her search for a new dog to adopt. She had adopted a Pom who had lost an eye and she thought her little UNO would enjoyhaving a fur sibling. She wanted another Pom because she was just crazy about Uno.In her own wordsI just thought Kasper was so cute and his story was sad because he hadnt had anyone to love him. Then I e-mailed Smaller Paws Pomeranian Rescue about fostering to adopt him. The day I met him, he was so scared and I knew we were moving so I couldnt takehim yet. Leslie said she would foster him until I was ready. We moved into an unfinished house earlier than we planned because myolder son was moving into our current house. Well, Leslies mom was in the hospital so she needed me to take him before I was quiteready. I dont remember which came first, Kasper or the toilet The yard wasnt fenced yet, so we were walking our three dogs outsideon leashes. Now Kas made four a mastiff, a bassett, and two wiley little Poms - quite a workout.But I am so glad I got Kasper He is just precious. His name means treasurer andhe is my treasure. He is such a baby. He is constantly on my lap and if Im notholding him he is patty-pawing on my knees.I just feel like he deserves all the love and attention he never had, althoughsometimes I put him down and remind him to go be a doggy. He sleeps with me everynight, he likes to be under the covers until he gets too hot. He trusts me and I thinkhe makes more progress towards being a doggy all the time. He takes toys from Unosometimes but hes not sure what to do with them once he gets them. I just cantbelieve he never had a mommy who loved him because he is so specialWell, now he has a forever mom, and she is just purrrfect2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM61I I I I I i i i in4AIn'mV- ff1Ii\4 4___462 - APC POMERANIAN REVIEWI can hardly believe that another SPECTACULAR National Specialty has come and gone so quickly. There is SOMUCH time and effort put forth by so many people to make our Specialty such a grand event to all attending. Icertainly appreciate the time spent working with such truly devoted friends and members of this club.We enjoyed a very profitable fundraising event. We were blessed with so many donations of wonderful and creativeitems. I must apologize for not being in the ballroom when many of you dropped off your donations. The Boardmeeting ran longer than anticipated, and because I was not there the log in sheets that we record your donations on wasnot available to you. We tried to let everyone know during the event that we needed your names and donationdescription but I am sure we missed many. I can only thank you all and let you know how very important your supportof the club through your item donations means to us. This is our main fundraiser for the year and the proceeds helps tooff set costs of the Specialty and fund other endeavors in support of our Pomeranians.As is the past, the donations were wonderful and Buyers took home some very special items.I want to thank my friend and main support person that worked tirelessly in our booth during the show MarilynHeestand. She has traveled the last two years from California to help with our Ways and Means fundraising. Shecertainly does not get to see much of the show, but we are so thankful for the many hours she spends in support of theAPC.

Fatal andcrippling diseases such as polio, whooping cough, measles, rubella German measleshave been so reduced in incidence that many people today have never seen a clinicalcase. Smallpox, once a great killer, has been practically eradicated. Our dogs also reapthe benefits of vaccination science for control of once-common diseases such asdistemper, parvo and rabies.However, in recent years, questions have arisen regarding the safety, efficacy and advisability of vaccinations for our caninefriends. Most of these concerns are based solely on anecdotal evidence. A vaccine is given, and days, weeks or months later, a healthproblem surfaces. As we search for reasons why our dog was so unlucky to develop this problem, we wonder Did the vaccine causethe health problem While it is tempting to blame the health problem of our dog on a prior vaccine, this is the logical fallacy ofcoincidental correlation. Simply because one event follows another does not mean that the first event caused the second. It is just aslogical to state that putting gas in your car causes car accidents. Medical problems that occur after immunization are often blamed onthe vaccine, but, in most cases, solid evidence is lacking.Search the Internet and you will find innumerable websites claiming that vaccines are unnecessary, even harmful. Muchresearch has been done on vaccination in humans. Despite the many wild claims about alleged dangers to humans from vaccines livercancer, autism, brain damage, etc, the studies do not support these claims. It is likely that the case for vaccine dangers in dogs hasalso been overstated.Lets examine some of these concerns about vaccinations for dogs.Vaccines dont work.Vaccines are highly effective. In several studies, vaccination against specific canine diseases is 100 effective in producingimmunity. However, there are always some individuals who will not develop immunity after vaccination. Poor response to a vaccinemay be due to the neutralizing effect of maternal antibodies circulating in very young puppies. It can also be a result of the vaccinelosing its potency when stored improperly. Poor immune response may be due to a weak vaccine challenge for example, killedvaccines are not as effective as modified live virus vaccines. Fever and impaired immune response of the host can reduce vaccineeffectiveness. Regardless of the cause, these individuals with poor response to a vaccine have the same risk of contracting a disease asnon-vaccinated dogs. It is due to the variability in response to vaccine that most veterinarians recommend a puppy series, and asecond booster vaccination for adults with unknown vaccine history.In general, live vaccines are more effective than killed vaccines, and viral vaccines are more effective than bacterial vaccines.Bacterial vaccines such as kennel cough and leptospirosis only provide immunity for a few months to a year at most. Luckily, the corevaccines are modified live viral and, in the case of rabies, killed viral vaccine, with a very high rate of successful, long-lastingimmunity. Live virus vaccines should not be given to ill or immunocompromised individuals.Vaccines are effective in preventing disease not only in individuals, but also in communities. This type of protection is calledherd immunity. Herd immunity works by decreasing the numbers of susceptible individuals. When this number drops low enough,the disease will disappear from the community because there are not enough individuals to carry on the catch-and-infect cycle.According to Ron Schultz, PhD, vaccine researcher the University of Wisconsin, although the U.S. probably vaccinates more dogsthan any other country, our coverage is only about 50 of the total canine population. With another 20-25 covered, we could, forall practical purposes, eliminate these diseases, because we would have so much better herd immunity, Schultz stated at a 2007canine health conference.2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM68I I I I I i i i inJa 1if 11v4 44APC POMERANIAN REVIEW - 69Vaccines are not safeIn truth, few things meet the definition of safe. For example, every year in the U.S., 350 people are killed in bathroom orshower-related accidents, and 200 are killed choking on food. Yet few of us regard taking a shower or eating as unsafe activities.No vaccine is 100 harmless. Almost all vaccines can cause pain, redness, or tenderness at the site of the injection. Inaddition, vaccination during the perinatal period can cause abortion, congenital anomalies, fetal death and failure to conceive. Morerarely, some individuals may develop transient immune suppression, arthritis, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, encephalitis andseizures. The distemper vaccine is also under investigation as a possible cause of hypertrophic osteodystrophy. Vaccines can alsocause fever and malaise, and extremely rarely death. It should be noted that these risks also occur with a naturally acquired infection.Allergic responses can result from serum components in the vaccine. A Banfield study done in Florida in 2001-2002 revealeda rate of severe anaphylactic reaction of 1 dog per 5000 out of a study done on 838,015 dogs.We need to understand that diseases such as distemper, parvovirus and rabies often cause permanent disabilities andfatalities. The risk of the vaccine must be weighed against the very real risk of contracting the disease.Vaccines are not necessaryIn some ways, vaccines are victims of their own success. Many dog owners today have never seen a case of distemper orparvo. As a result, they may question the continued need for vaccines. However, the disease organisms remain in the environment anda danger to every unvaccinated dog. Herd immunity is also some protection for unvaccinated dogs, but it is by no means a guaranteethat the dog will not succumb to an infectious disease.Rabies is transmissible to humans and invariably fatal consequently, rabies vaccination and re-vaccinations are legalrequirements in all states. Rabies is a killed, adjuvant vaccine with higher risk of adverse reactions. There is an ongoing rabieschallenge study at this time, to determine duration of immunity obtained from rabies vaccination. If results are as expected, this willhopefully provide a basis for lengthening the legally mandated rabies vaccine administration intervals.Some people believe that by not vaccinating, they can develop, through survival of the fittest, a strain of dogs with naturalresistance to infectious disease. To illustrate the fallacy of this sort of idea, lets consider that most deadly of zoonotic contagiousdiseases, rabies. The existence of this disease has been documented since at least 2300 B.C., and has likely existed for many millenniaprior to that. If it were possible to develop a natural resistance to rabies through non-vaccination and survival of the fittest, rabieswould have ceased to be a threat centuries ago, as the less fit, less immune animals died from the disease. Yet we humans and ourdogs remain vulnerable to rabies, and only through recent advances involving immunoglobulin administration and vaccinations havediseases like rabies become a reduced threat.While in the U.S. we have reduced risk of many infectious canine diseases, canine rabies and adenovirus infectioushepatitis have recently been found in imported dogs, so the continued threat of disease remains very real.Puppies are too young to be vaccinatedBecause young puppies have had limited exposure to diseases in the environment, they have little developed immunity andare more vulnerable than adults to contract infectious diseases. They receive protection from their mothers antibodies for severalweeks, but once that protection wears off, it could be argued that vaccination is more important for young puppies than for maturedogs.The age to begin core vaccination in puppies is a topic of much debate. AAHA 2006 guidelines suggest the earliest age innormal circumstances should be 6 weeks, but in the face of an outbreak or in a shelterrescue situation, vaccination can begin at aneven earlier age. Rabies is not recommended to be given until after age12 weeks. Studies in humans have shown that children are fullycapable of responding to vaccines in the first months of life. Studies in dogs have produced similar results.It is best not to give more than one vaccine at a time.Puppies are capable of responding to millions of different bacteria and viruses because they have billions of immunologiccells circulating in their bodies. Therefore the vaccines given in the first few month of life are literally a raindrop in the ocean of whatthe puppies immune systems successfully encounter in their environment every day. Studies on human infants show that multiplecombined vaccines are easily handled by the immune system.A Banfield study on dogs indicates that the risk of overall reactions is slightly increased with multivalent vaccines 27 per10,000 as opposed to single vaccines 7 per 10,000. However, most reactions were transitory and not clinically significant. Also,since the dogs received multiple different antigens simultaneously, a reciprocal increase in reaction rate could reasonably be expected.There was an overall reaction rate of 16 per 10,000 dogs in this study with 2 per 10,000 dogs vaccinated suffering seriousanaphylactic reactions.Vaccines cause dogs to develop autoimmune disease.Results from studies on families and twins show an important role in both genetic and environmental factors in the eventualdevelopment of autoimmune disease.The portion of the genome that codes for the genes that help us recognize self is called the MHC-the MajorHistocompatibility Complex. These genes are located very close to each other and it is rare for recombination to occur. This in effect2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM69m mf 'r ,.. r 4 470 - APC POMERANIAN REVIEWmeans that the genes from each parent are inherited intact. Remember, you inherit genes in pairs, one from each parent. If theparents are closely related, the possibility exists that they share the same genes at that site they are homozygous by descent. Itappears that susceptibility to an autoimmune disease is determined by the lack of variability in the MHC genes. Line breeding andinbreeding may result in this lack of variability. Close breeding increase susceptibility in the offspring to develop an autoimmunedisease when an environmental trigger is present.Though the tendency to autoimmunity is genetic, most autoimmune diseases are triggered by some sort of toxic assault, orviral or bacterial exposure. Scientists believe that the body reacts to small protein-like fragments of the pathogen that are similar instructure to the normal cellular components of the body. A recent study showed that vaccine contaminants may cause the dog to makeantibodies against these contaminants. Not all the vaccinated dogs in this study developed this response, and those who did were inthe same particular family group, further reinforcing the genetic basis of autoimmunity.Dogs who are genetically susceptible to the autoimmune process are at greater risk for such problems as thyroiditis,hypertrophic ostedystrophy, and autoimmune hemolytic anemia. These conditions may be provoked by vaccination andor infection.However, as noted by Dr. Schultz, vaccines may trigger autoimmune disease, but they do not cause it. And, if dogs do not receive theircore vaccines, Dr. Schultz notes, They wont go on to develop thyroiditis. Theyll die from distemper or parvo.Naked DNA vaccines are under development. These vaccines would contain solely the desired antigen, with no bovine contaminants.This would mean that when this type of vaccine is given, antibodies specific for the disease would be produced, without the high riskof allergic reactions or antibody responses to bovine components.My dog is too small to be vaccinated.Small breeds, and several specific breeds, are at higher risk of adverse vaccine reactions. A Purdue study involving more thata million dogs found that dogs 22 lbs. or less had approximately twice the risk compared to dogs weighing over 22 lbs. The onemilliliterdose volume listed on most vaccine labels is recommended only because that is the dose used for the licensing process.During testing, the issue of breed or size of dog has received no attention. Since we have research indicating a higher risk of reactionto vaccines by small dogs, hopefully some studies will be done to determine the lowest effective dose for toy breeds and breeds athigher risk of reaction such as Chihuahuas, miniature pinschers, Boston Terriers and dachshunds. According to Dr. Schultz, body sizeis less critical with biologics than pharmaceuticals, and a toy poodle is as likely to need a full dose of a vaccine as a Saint Bernard.Vaccine BasicsThe goal of a vaccination program is to develop immunity to serious diseases while minimizing risks of allergy andinappropriate immune response. Natural infection and recovery from a disease confers long-lasting immunity. A vaccine can also havethe same beneficial effect on immunity.The oldest and most common vaccine is the MLV or modified live virus vaccine. The actual disease-causing viral organismthe antigen is cultured, then altered so that it wont cause disease symptoms. Another type of live vaccine, the vector vaccineVV, is a genetically engineered vaccine, which is also very reliable and safe. Both MLV and VV are infectious vaccines. They workby producing a mild disease response in the individual. When the VV or MLV vaccine is given, the bodys immune system respondsby producing antibodies, which kill the virus. Immunologic memory allows the immune system to remember the organism to which ithas been previously been exposed. Duration of immunity is determined by the memory cells, but the only way these cells respond is ifthe individual becomes infected. Due to the live virus, which is introduced to the memory cells through use of a live vaccine, the VVMLV vaccines induce reliable and long-lasting immunity. A stressed, ill, or immunocompromised dog should not receive a livevaccine.The other type of vaccines is noninfectious vaccines, killed or subunit vaccines. The virus or bacteria is actually killedby use of radiation or a chemical, and cannot produce disease. This type of vaccine has less chance of producing disease symptoms,but may also be less effective in provoking immunity in the host. Rabies vaccine is killed, so that there is no chance of the dogdeveloping a fatal case of rabies. Manufacturers may add adjuvants or immune-boosting substances, to the killed vaccines in anattempt to improve their effectiveness. These adjuvants often produce adverse side effect such as local inflammation, allergy, and inthe case of one in ten thousand cats tumor formation at the vaccine site. Cats lack the tumor suppression gene that would act on aninjection site that is inflamed by certain vaccine adjuvants, particularly from rabies and feline leukemia vaccine. This problem in catshas prompted researchers to develop safer vaccines.Core vaccines recommended for dogs are distemper, adenovirus hepatitis, parvovirus and rabies. These are all viralvaccines, which readily provoke cellular memory and induce long-term immunity. There should be a dose of core vaccine at 14-16weeks as the final dose in the puppy series, then at age one year, then after that not more than every three years. Minimum duration ofimmunity from the core vaccines is thought to be seven to ten years. Yearly vaccination is outmoded and unnecessary, and exposes thedog to an increased risk of an adverse reaction. Those reactions are rare, but unacceptable if your dog receives something he doesntneed and consequently dies.Blood levels of antibodies can be measured. This is known as a titer test. There is no standardization between different labsand their testing methods, and testing can be costly. The presence of antibodies may indicate a level of protection against a certaindisease however, titer levels needed to infer protection from disease are not known. Therefore, it is not possible to know if a giventiter in a specific animal indicates adequate protection against disease. In the future, measurements of titers may provide a method ofdetermining intervals for re-vaccination.2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM70m i m44 4APC POMERANIAN REVIEW - 71Vaccine programs should be individualized depending on the age of the dog, the breed, and the diseases prevalent in the area.Consult the American Animal Hospital Association Canine Vaccine Guidelines 2006 for the most recent recommendationshttpwww.aahanet.orgPublicDocumentsVaccineGuidelines06Revised.pdfA bit about a sensationalistic and erroneous article.There has been a widely circulated article entitled The Science of Vaccine Damage which is filled with inaccuracies, halftruths,and scare tactics. Now I must confess, when I first read this article, I fell for it hook, line and sinker Then, my skeptical naturetook over. This article extensively references a limited Purdue study, which involved a small number of beagles. I accessed the studyand read the entire report. This study concludes that certain dogs may develop antibodies to bovine contaminants in the vaccine serum.This is certainly no evidence for vaccines causing any long-term health effects in any dogs, let alone ALL dogs, yet that is just whatthis author states in her articleI quote here from the Purdue reportThis study did not find any evidence of autoimmune disease in the vaccinated dogs.There was a marked increase of autoantibodies to the skeletal muscle proteins, myoglobin and myosin, in BOTH groups ofdogsvaccinated and non-vaccinated... this is surmised to be due to frequent blood sampling of the dogs for the study.There was no increase of antithyroglobulin antibodies in the vaccinated animals, or other evidence of thyroid dysfunction.Various autoantibodies to bovine contaminants were detected in some of the vaccinated dogs. These antibodies were notfound to react with the dogs own tissues. The long-term significance of these autoantibodies has not yet been determined. Sincebovine serum components in the vaccine may be responsible for the majority of autoantibodies, elimination of these bovinecomponents may avoid this problem... new generations of vaccines, especially naked DNA vaccines, are free of serum components,and these should not induce autoantibodies.BINGO Thank goodness for research and development. We are discovering how to make better, safer, more effectivevaccines Great news for our dogs So the next time you see that article floating around the Internet lists, just remember to read it withsome skepticism.Id like to address a few more of her faulty accusations. She states The monkey retrovirus SV40 keeps turning up in humancancer sites. Per the CDC, SV40 has been found in cancers of people who either DID or DID NOT received the polio vaccine.SV40 has not been present in any vaccine since the early 1960s. SV40 may be associated with some cancers, but the virus istransmitted to people by a mechanism other than vaccines. Lastly, SV40 has not been proven cause cancer, anymore than any othervirus, that might lie dormant in the body.She also states that allergy should be synonymous with the word vaccination, and goes on to state that vaccinessensitize render allergic this is such an inaccurate statement Actual allergies to vaccine components are rare, and the process ofimmune system activation, while perhaps sharing some similarities, is NOT the same as the allergic response process.More false statements She states The Purdue study found that the vaccinated dogs had developed autoantibodies to theirown DNA. Nowhere was this found in this study The study mentions that B cells form antibodies to the DNA of the antigendisease organism NOT their own DNA And this happens as a result all normal immune responses, not specifically vaccination, butalso from exposure to disease organisms in the environment. The study dogs were found good homes. No, they were euthanized at22 weeks so that their tissues could be examined. There are many other misquotes in this article, and faulty conclusions as well, butthe worst may well be her own conclusion, Some of us, myself included, have chosen not to vaccinate our pets at all.Lucky for her dogs, herd immunity will likely afford them some protection even if she refuses to contribute to the health ofthe community through vaccination. Once you are terrorized against vaccinating your pets, you can go to the website where she willhappily sell you untested, unproven remedies for health and wellness. For just 31 per year you can sign up for a newsletterThe article on vaccine damage is not an unbiased viewpoint, and far from scientific. We would do better to look to the realscientists and the ongoing research when formulating our health care plans.ReferencesNovak, Will, DVM, MBA Predicting the Unpredictable Vaccine Reactions Proceeding of the NAVC Congress, 2007.Schultz, Ron, PhD What Everyone Needs to Know About Canine Vaccines and Vaccination Programs AKC CHF Healthconference, St. Louis, MO, Oct 2007.Fortney, William, DVM Newest Vaccination Strategies for Sporting Dogs, North American Veterinary Conference, 2006.Thorpe-Vargas, Susan, PhD.

BassettJudges Education Coordinator Article - March 2008I hope that all of you had as great a time as I did at our NationalSpecialty gathering in Louisville. It was wonderful to spend so manydays among Pom fanciers and old friends, and also over 300 beautifulPoms. It was a busy time as well, with a couple of major educationalactivities and meetings to attend. As your Education Coordinator Imade a couple of proposals to the Board, which were accepted. Theyinvolve improvements to our APC Approved Mentor program, andshould be documented in the Board minutes in this issue. I will gointo more detail in the next issue of the Pom Review. The Board alsoapproved all of my revised educational materials, which were usedfor the first time during Nationals.APC hosted two educational programs which I presented including an Approved Mentor Seminar, and aJudges Education Study Group. Both were well attended, and well received by those attending. I had 19people who attended the Mentor seminar. The schedule turned out to be a difficulty for this seminar, asit was scheduled for late afternoon on Monday, following Sweepstakes judging. There was a huge entryin Sweeps this year, which was still going when we had to start the seminar. We couldnt delay it asmany folks were going to the Top 20 competition which was happening that same evening. Hopefullywe wont run in to so much overlap next time.The Judges Education Study Group took place on Tuesday morning, and had 14 prospective judgesattending. We had a very international flavor, with three of those attending coming from overseas. Ms.Elisabeth Spillman an approved FCI Judge was with us from Sweden, Mrs. Ulla Paavola from Finland,and Ms. Nika Kocjancic from Slovenia. I appreciate the time and effort that it took for all of ourattendees to be there, and particularly those who came from such a long distance. The format of ourJudges Education Study Group is what AKC officially calls a National Specialty Study Group. Itincludes the formal classroom presentation with hands-on experience with good representatives of thebreed, and also the extensive ringside mentoring time during the specialty judging. AKC awards twoeducational credits for this overall experience. Judges applying for the breed must have at least foureducational credits, so you can see how significant a good Nationals experience can be.I want to thank a number of people who helped me greatly in making these important events successful.Gregg Waters was wonderful with all of the coordination for the Hotel and Conference Room.

Before I share these specifics, I think it is time for me to review the purpose and function of the PCT. Just as greatdog people know that form structure and function are so inter-related in dogs purpose and function is likewise primarywith organizations and trusts.The PCT is a managed fund whose purpose is to serve Pomeranians in the areas regarding health, education, and welfarerescue. Its trustees govern this fund and have the capability to further designate restrict funds for the purposesexpressed by donors within these areas. The trust agreement and application for IRS non-profit status taken togetherfurther restrict how money can be allocated. For instance, health fund donations can be made directly or through othernon-profits to researchers at educational institutions working on subjects that relate to Pomeranian health, but not toveterinarians in private practice. Education of Pom fanciersenthusiasts is included because the education of the peoplethat handle Poms directly be it general public, owners, breeders, or judges will achieve the betterment of Poms themselves.The ability to distribute rescuewelfare funds is self-explanatory in purpose. However, this is one area of the Trust thatneeds to have guidelines formatted before implementation. The Trustees take this task seriously and look forward togetting this underway.There are many matters to take under consideration in order to operate the Trust legally. Bank regulations with regard toHomeland Security restrict the Trust from receiving or sending wired funds. Charitable organizations are highly regulatedfrom raising funds through raffles particularly conducted through the Internet. Our government considers this organized,interstate gambling. So it is understandable from that prospective that it is more complex than what it first might appear.The Trust safeguards money for Pomeranians. It is not a part of APC. Five years ago, the APC board realized thatPomeranians would benefit from its formation. It was the founding donor. Their relationship is symbiotic. They bothhave the goal to benefit the breed. But the ways they may accomplish this are clearly defined and different. The Trustmust reach out and serve more than just the APC membership. APC and PCT working together with a good relationshipwill maximize the benefit to Poms.Because a particular situation occurred this past year, it is also necessary to mention what the PCT cannot do. It cannothelp human individuals or the individuals Poms. There was more than one tragic occurrence to loyal, contributing APCmembers this past year. Comments have been made that the PCT should help these individuals. Maybe the charitablein its name causes confusion. But there are legal restrictions that just do not allow that to occur. One organization thatdoes have this ability is Take The Lead. That organization was formed to help people in the dog world. It isnt that thePCT trustees dont care. They are duty-bound to serve the stated purpose of the Trust and that is to help all Pomeraniansas a whole.Now, let me turn to the good news, what we have accomplished and just received. Even before the Trust became official,we promoted having an educational seminar given in conjunction with the National. We started with zero funds availableand relied on our in house talent to initiate this function. The goal was to incorporate nationally recognized speakersthat regional clubs might not be able to afford. This year was evidence that this goal was successfully achieved. PatHastings gave her wonderful Puppy Puzzle seminar emphasizing the relationship of structure to function and helping usto recognize what we see. The Trustees chose to help make it affordable for attendees. And yet staying strictly within theeducation designated funds, it was able to cover the approximate 3,000.00 cost of this presentation. Pat Hastings haspromised to donate a portion of the proceeds from her materials sold at the seminar back to the PCT. Additionally, theTrustees are pleased to be able to use Education funds to offer an amount toward APCs purchase of a projector that willfacilitate not only the Judges Education Power Point presentation during the year, but also whatever educationalMarge Kranzfelder2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM74I I I I I i i i in44 44APC POMERANIAN REVIEW - 75presentations that will occur at the National. We now look forward to setting up an equally informative seminar for nextyears National just as soon as we know its dates and location. Thank you for helping to support this important function.Most people think of the PCT or its health fund synonymous with its Alopecia X fund. It certainly was a prime motivationfactor in its formation. And it is natural to reflect the prime health concern of APC and its membership. This elusiveproblem has been a worldwide concern of Pom enthusiasts. And we are also fortunate that the Alopecia X fund has thelong-time concern and wonderful support of the PC of Canada, along with individuals from other countries. It makes somuch sense to pool our resources and work together to find answers. Specifically, the PC of Canada generously donated1,000.00 US. And an equally generous donation of 1,000.00 US was given by Luisa Leon Segura as she arrived fromPeru. Chris Heartz, once again, added great enthusiasm to our third donation in Kentucky. She designed, painted, andthen donated a Pom crate for auction. It is truly a masterpiece. In order to allow those not able to attend to participate inthis auction, we set rules to accept phone bids. It was Margo Kogas winning bid that added 2,200.00 to the PCTAlopecia X fund. This was an example of the owner of the BOB Pom giving back to the Breed in this generous way.This years contributions certainly help in creating a war chest against this troubling Pom condition. It will take bothblood and money to help find scientific answers. The breakthrough development of DNA technology gives hope to bothDr. Johnson and Dr. Leeb that finding a marker is within reach. The PCT is glad that two leading researchers are workingat finding solutions by studying DNA. But we must remind people that even if we find a DNA marker that will ideallyhelp to prevent Poms from ever being affected, funds could still be needed to study how to help those that presently dohave it. Or is there more than one marker to be found Commitment to finding answers edges us forward, but our workis far from concluded.We try utilizing as many resources as possible and facilitating effective teams. This has included the AKC-Canine HealthFoundation and the Morris Foundation. We are presently fortunate to have embarked on a joint project with MarsVeterinaryWaltham to help collect needed DNA blood samples. As stated in my previous article, they will pay for thePom donors veterinary and shipping costs. Their research coordinator, Martine Huslig, will arrange for sample kits to godirectly to your vet. These kits also contain the necessary release forms and simple health questionnaire regarding thedonors Pom. She collects these samples, forwards portions to the Mars Foundation and Dr. Leeb. She provides thenecessary security of donor confidentiality. No one connected with our breed neither in APC nor PCT are provided anyinformation concerning the donors. The new methods of DNA search require the samples to be from both affected andunaffected Poms. So please help us with this blood sample drive. Our goal is to obtain about 60 samples. The portiongoing to Mars Veterinary will benefit any of their future canine research. Each donation therefore helps more than justone particular scientist. Those attending the National were offered a nice travel coffee mug as a thoughtful reminder andthank you from MarsWaltham.

I can truly say that I have enjoyed myself each time and look forward to the next yearsspecialty as I drive home. I do wish that we could have another costume contest. It was the highlight ofmy first specialty.It was so exciting to have eighteen competitors in the obedience trial this year. Our little dogs arewonderful performance dogs and we should be very proud of them.High in Trial was earned by a spectacular little guy named Royal Tee Ball OFire with a score of 197 for1st place in the Novice B class. His ownerstrainers are Thomas and Karen Kelly. Tom and Karen alsoadvised that this was just his 3rd show and he had finished his Companion Dog title with this show. WOOHOO I look forward to seeing his progression in this sport.2nd place went to Mona Gitters Little Miss Turbo, CD, MX, MXJ, NAP with a score of 192 . 3rd placewent to Sundowns My Trend is Janesa with a score of 191, owned by Jerrie Freia. My Princess WigglesVonsnifsnif placed 4th with a score of 187.Paulette Zeccas Ch. Paughprint Endless Tradition, CD-Tyler took 1st place in the Open A class with ascore of 181. It was also his Companion Dog Excellent title. Way to go guysAll in all everyone had a great time and I hope to see everyone again at next years specialty.APC National Specialty Rally Reportby meI had thought that Lisa might report on this one, also, but she left it to me, and Im delighted to do it.It was a great honor for me to be invited to judge Rally at the National. I enjoyed designing courses toshow off our obedient Poms and in fact have used those courses for my Front and Finish column forJune. In Excellent, I wanted to show off the ability of the dog to stop without sitting, so included theMoving StandWalk Around Dog, which can be a very showy exercise for a Specialty.

In Advanced, I included the Stop and Down, again an impressive exercise, especially when welldone,and the HaltStandWalk Around Dog. I always include a walk-around exercise on every course.Unfortunately many handlers dont realize that the pause in heel position is absolutely required in theexercise description, and failure to pause sometimes causes an Incorrect Performance score, costing 10points. The point of this requirement is to demonstrate that the dog will not move just because the handlerhas returned to heel position.Placements wereNovice B 1st place went to CH Paughprint Endless Tradition CD, owned by Paulette Zecca, with a score of98. 2nd place went to Sundowns My Trend Is Janesa CD, owned by Camilla Knight, with a score of 89.Advanced B 1st place was taken by Sassy Girl Sheffield UDX RAE2, owned by Lisa Sheffield with a scoreof 100. 2nd place was Ballykin Commando Cody CDX RE, Paulette Zecca, with a 95, and 3rd place wasIdlewyld Cameo CD RN, owned by Margaret McKee, with an 83.Excellent B 1st place again went to Sassy Girl Sheffield UDX RAE2 with a 100. More about this later. 2ndplace was Ballykin commando Cody CDX RE with a score of 78.Please notea score of 100 is a perfect score. Even one perfect score is not a common occurrence, butthis time there were two 100 scores in one day, and both were by the same dog in two different classes.Sassy and Lisa were a real team, and I heard later from those watching from outside the ring that they werein awe watching these performances. I stood there with my clipboard and score sheet in hand, but the onlything I got to write on it was the comment NICE on a couple of stations. The Moving Stand and MovingDown were especially impressive, as Lisa did not even need to look at Sassy or give a signal, just theverbal Stand or Down and the dog instantly performed. I even bragged about this performance on theRally Judges e-mail list.

In order to attain this title, a dog must have earned 100 points based on placement in Open Bor Utility B with a specific number of dogs defeated. For example, in order to earn just 2 points for a 1stplace win, there must have been at least 6 dogs competing in Open or 3 competing in Utility. In order toearn 1 point for a 4th place, there must have been at least 31 dogs competing in Open, or 20 in Utility. Thedog must earn at least one 1st place in Utility and one 1st place in Open, as well as an additional 1st place ineither Open or Utility.

Ibegan showing just a short two years ago, when Ifell in love with a puppy from Mary Rosenbaumof Bi-Mar Poms. I have had Poms since I was 7years old when I first got one for my birthday.Dog showing is not something you will find in myfamily history, some of my relatives had nevereven heard of such a thing until I started. But Imhappy to tell them about what I do and show themmy accomplishmentsI live in the beautiful state of Arizona near CaveCreek, with my two brothers and parents. Whenmy mom and I are not at dog shows, you canusually find us riding quads at the Sand Dunes inSouthern California. I attend a Charter school so I am able to travel a lot without missing much school. I amplanning to graduate early and start college. Im still unsure of what I want to do with my future, but I still havetime to figure it out.My mom Kathy and I were breeding pet quality Poms off and on for about eight years, before we ever consideredshowing. Our kennel name is Sweetwater Pomeranians.When I first got my puppy Duke, neither of us knew what in the world we were doing. I found a handling classnearby, where I learned the basics and developed my techniques and personal style of showing. I still continue toattend those classes once or twice a week. I was once told if theres nothing new to learn, its no longer fun, and Itruly believe it.I have had many ups and downs with showing in both juniors and breed. In juniors I have to say sometimes thejudges dont even give you a second look when you have a toy dog. It can be frustrating but you have to learn onceyou step out of the ring to forget about what happened with the placements and focus on what you can do better forthe next time. Aside from the frustrations there are so many great times. Even if I dont place as long as my dog andme performed well, I am very happy. I love the feeling of knowing I trained him myself and although we didnt winwe did the best we could. A lot of kids have push button or top ranked dogs from handlers, I know my dog is farfrom being push button but we have a connection that some juniors and their dogs are not lucky enough have. I amvery proud to say I finished 2007 as the 4 Pomeranian Junior and qualified for the 2008 Eukanuba in less thanthree months. It will be my first year going and I am very excitedI have been so fortunate with the people I have met in this world of dog shows especially the Juniors. I met two ofmy best friends ringside, Hayden Hadley and a fellow Pom Junior handler Rebecca Silverberg. She has taught me alot of my grooming techniques, which I am very fortunate for. Without her I dont know where I would be. Its nicehaving another Pom Junior around, because we can watch each other and give one another tips on what we could dobetter and we both understand how hard it is with Poms.2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM86i i i i n4rn________ _ ___\ nA 4,M34APC POMERANIAN REVIEW - 87Along with Juniors I have had a lot of accomplishmentsin the Breed Ring.

She was surroundedby her family. Sue had been diagnosed with liver cancer just one month previously.Sues family and friends came together at the Goddard home a few days later to celebrate her life. Everyone brought food, aswell as pictures, cards, and mementoes to give to the family. At the gathering, each person shared stories about Sue, and thoughts onwhat she meant to them.Tim and Sue Goddard and Darrell and Olga Baker were often said to be joined at the hip. They enjoyed doing just abouteverything together from house-hunting to playing Balderdash. At the memorial, Olga shared some of the happy moments she hadenjoyed with Sue, as well as words Sue herself had expressed shortly before her death. Sue had said she was not afraid of dying shehad had a good life and been fortunate enough to do the things she had most wanted to do. These comments impressed us all deeply.John David and I reflected on the many Houston Pom Club meetings held in the Goddard home, the Christmas parties,birthday celebrations, the dinners, and the social evenings to play silly games. I loved all the great Pom stuff Sue had all over herhome. Each item was a trophy won over the years or a gift from a friend. Everything had a funny story behind it.I still remember when John David and I showed one of our dogs for the very first time in the ring and he was selected forWD. We called Sue and Olga long-distance shaking with excitement. They were just as excited as we were Another fond memoryis the time Darrell, Olga, Sue, and Tim drove out to a run-down horse arena in the country to watch our Pom compete in agility. Icouldnt believe they had made the long drive to stand out in the heat just to see our Pom run. I thought then and still think now, weare very fortunate to know such kind, thoughtful, and fun-loving people.A large number of the 30 Pom-friends gathered at the Goddard home currently own Tim Sue Poms, or have owned one inthe past. Sue not only found great homes for her puppies, she also brought the new owners into the Houston Pom Club as members,and then started them showing their new Poms. She was truly the best example of improving the breed by her own breeding program,and by the sizeable number of people she brought into the Pom community.Another wonderful example of the strong bonds shared by the Pom community was witnessed by the reunion of Tim andSues daughters, Zarena, Zanna and Timmara, with the daughters of Darrell and Olga Baker, Jeri and Toni, and Erika Moureausdaughter, Jennifer. These young ladies have grown up together going to dog shows, playing together, and later helping their parentsshow dogs. They have all inherited a life-long love of animals and appreciation for the relationships that bind dog-people together.Present at the memorial were long-time friends of Sue and Tim, many going back twenty, thirty, and even forty years. Peopletraveled from Dallas, Austin, and even greater distances to be present at the memorial celebration. Humberto Ramirez known asBeto to everyone flew in all the way from Guadalajara, Mexico. Beto spoke about his great joy in being able to work with Sue toexpand the Tim Sue line to areas of Mexico that had not previously seen such high-quality breeding. Beto is committed to continuingthe work he and Sue began together.On January 24 of this year, Tim and Sue celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary. The Houston Pom Club held acombination meeting and anniversary party in the home of Audrey and Charlie Roberts. Audrey filled her home with decorations andour members brought food, a cake, and champagne. We drank champagne punch out of a silver punch bowl, won as a challengetrophy by one of the Tim Sue Poms sometime in the past. Sue and Tims friends brought funny cards and gifts. The following day,they left for Florida for a family vacation. They were able to swim with the dolphins together with their children and grandchildren.Sue and Tim Goddard and the Tim Sue line, is well-known to Pomeranian fanciers. Both Sue and Tim have served theAmerican Pomeranian Club well. Sue is a Past-President of the APC and Tim served on the Board of Directors. They have also beenHonorary Life Members for the past several years. They have been invaluable members of the Pomeranian Club of Greater Houstonsince shortly after its conception in 1968 and Tim currently serves as Treasurer. They were charter members of the La CajunPomeranian Club of Louisiana and active members for many years. In 2006, Sue judged Sweepstakes at the APC Nationals inLouisville, Kentucky. In August 2007, Tim and Sue served as Show Chair and Secretary for the APC National Summer Specialty inHouston, Texas.The Tim Sue line began in 1962 and since that time has produced over 100 champions. CH TIM SUES HIGH LIGHTS isdistinguished by winning Best of Breed at Westminster. There are many other famous Tim Sue Poms and their progeny are still goingstrong today. Among many other accomplishments, CH TIM SUES FLYING HIGH Cosmo owners Patrick Farmer and KevinHebert won the Award of Merit at the APC Nationals in 2006 and has been on the APC Top Ten lists for the past few years.The most recent achievement in the Tim Sue line is the Award of Merit given to CH TIM SUES TRICK OR TREATGoblin owner Mary Latimer at the 2008 APC Nationals in Louisville. Goblin was also a Top Twenty Pom at the Nationals andhas many other big wins to his credit. Also recently, CH TIM SUES TRACES TRINKET Trinket was awarded the ROMdesignation. In 2007, Trinket was listed as an APC TOP TEN DAMS. Those of us in Houston knew Trinket as Sues little shadow,following her around the house and never leaving her side for a minute.In 2006, Sue made the decision to downsize her kennel in order to be able to spend more time traveling with her family. Sheturned to her long-time friends, Christine and John Heartz of Chriscendo Poms. Chris brought several of the Tim Sue Poms intoher own program in Canada and continues to do great things with them. It gave Sue a lot of pleasure to know her precious Poms hadgone to such an excellent home and outstanding program. Chris wrote the following tribute to Sue2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM89I I I I I i i i in44 4490 - APC POMERANIAN REVIEWIt took all my courage to attend Hospitality night at my first APC Specialty in 1978. At the time, the Specialty was held inNew York. As I got to the door, I searched for a friendly face, but not knowing a soul, the gentleman at the door asked if maybe I wasin the wrong room. Close to tears, I turned to leave when a beautiful young girl saw me, ran up and asked, Do you own MillamorsRock Medallion I said, Yes. And she said, Well, my Mother will want to say hi. Zannas simple act of kindness was the startof my friendship with Sue Goddard that has lasted for 30 years.Although we lived so very far apart, Sue has always been there to share in the triumphs and the tragedies we have had inPoms. Years ago we agreed to co-own a little dog that Sue fell in love with at the Specialty. She took him home and made him one ofthe greatest producing Poms in the history of the breed. Besides City Lights, we shared several other dogs back and forth over theyears, Kirby, High Lights, Hans and Denver.Tim and Sue even drove all the way up to Nova Scotia in the fifth wheel to spend time with us one summer. We had a lobsterfeast on the deck, spent a weekend in PEI, ate more lobsters and walked on the beach after the dog show. That trip will always be aspecial memory for us. I always envied Carolyn and Olga, as they got to spend so much more time with Sue than I did, but we alwaysmade the most of the time we did have and corresponded regularly.A couple of years ago, Sue felt she would like to spend more time with Tim, the girls and her grandchildren. Rather than justgive up breeding she asked John and I to take the last seven of her Pom girls. Although they have to brave the snow up here, thegirls are all happy and healthy. I am sure Sue is smiling down on us all and will be proud of their accomplishments for years tocome.Sue devoted the majority of her life to Poms and she was a very successful breeder. The TimSue dogs are behind many linestoday and Sue can certainly claim responsibility for starting a lot of people in Poms. She consistently produced top winners, yearafter year. Sue has also served in so many capacities and has given much to the breed and several regional Clubs as well as ourNational. Sue just had a way of getting people involved when she was in charge.My heart breaks for those left behind, but I only hope when the pain fades that you all remember Sue Goddard, the lady withthe million-dollar smile. Chris and John HeartzMarge Kranzfelder, Past-President of the American Pomeranian Club, and long-time friend of Tim and Sue, was unable tobe present in Houston for the memorial. However, Marge wrote a beautiful letter, which was read aloud to the gathering. Hersentiments perfectly express what Sues life-work was all aboutI consider it a privilege to know both Sue and Tim. As I reflect, I see mental snapshots. They are of her fine Pom ringpresentations with the Greats of TimSue moving out at the end of the lead. This is THE image that both helped teach me and I stillhold when mentoring others. Then there is Sue, the quiet, dignified, knowledgeable judge at the Nationalnot overshadowing thefun-loving, hospitable Sue sipping Green Beer on St Paddys Day or a Tequila Sunrise.I am so very, very happy to Highlight my memory images with both of you last August. They serve as a reminder to me tograb onto these opportunities whenever possible no one ever knows when there might not be another chance.And yes, I enjoyed seeing Goblin at the National in Kentucky. I like that dog And as I watched him in the ring, he was andstill is a favorite of mine. I knew his odds of winning the big one I had no question he would at least obtain the Award of Merit. Butknowing the health situation with Sue, his presence was sentimental and poignant as well. He represented all the great TimSue Pomsand he took on this responsibility well. Sue has rightfully earned a respected place in Pom history.But most of all, I realize and am sad that Poms and their people have lost a great one. I look forward to our paths crossingonce again.With sincere sympathy, Marge KranzfelderLong-time friend Erika Moureau and her daughter, Jennifer, were part of the group gathered at Tim and Sues house tocelebrate Sues life. Erika expressed her thoughts beautifully in the following tributeWhen you lose a very dear, long-time friend like Sue, it takes a while to cope. But I am happy that God didnt make hersuffer very long.So, I like to think about all the good times we had traveling together, all the laughter and the fun. All the wins and somelosses we shared on her dogs and mine.She contributed a great deal to the Pomeranian breed and the National Club. Sue and I had a favorite dog, Ch.Tim SuesHighlights. I am sure that High was waiting at the Gates of Heaven for Sue, along with many others. Erika K. MoureauSherry Dollar wrote the following about her long friendship with SueI was 21 years old when I met Sue and Olga. I say that because as long as I can remember, wherever there was one, not faraway was the other. Early on it didnt seem we had a lot in common because I was new and was into the partis, and of course, Sueand Olga didnt have partis or much interest in them at the time. I remember them saying someone very young needed to work withpartis because it looked like partis were going to take so many years of development.After searching around everywhere for partis to work with and not coming up with much that was acceptable, Suerecommended me to Ken and Eleanor Miller for a stud service on a parti female, litter sister of CH. PRESTIGIOUS PEE WEE PARTIto their CH. MILLAMOR MARK TRADITION, which I am now 8-9 generations down from. In recent years, Sue has lent me studservice with very complimentary pedigrees to mine. Most notable is CH. PRESTIGIOUS HIGH OCTANE out of CH. TIM SUESFANTASTIC HIGH and out of my CH. PRESTIGIOUS ROYAL HIGHNESS, first parti ever all breederownerhandler finished.

PRESTIGIOUS GORGEOUS GEORGE was her grandson and weagreed he is the most beautiful parti in the world aside from being 1 Parti Pom for 2007 and Top 20 All Poms. Even though Sue hadmany champions and accomplishments of her own, she was humble and not wanting to take much credit for her contributions.However, the current 1 Parti is a direct result of Sues help and participation. I am grateful she was able to witness his success andI know she was proud of him.Sue was an honest and trustworthy person. She had class and tried not to get caught up in the ugliness that can go on in thedog game. She was also a fun person who should be remembered as a role model for new people because it is always the peoplebehind the dogs who are important. Sincerely, Sherry DollarOlga Baker, Sues close friend, paid the following tribute to SueOur sweetest words about Sue came from my Darrell. All dog folks are familiar with the Rainbow Bridge that little dogscross over after they die. The dogs wait for their person to join them. Darrell said in Sues case, she wont be greeted by one littledog, she will be greeted by 200 or 300 Poms, yapping, tails wagging, and so happy to see her.I thought that was very sweet, and added, Yep, but in Sues case, guess what She was our Encyclopedia of Pomeraniansso she will know every dogs name, heritage, sire and dams name, show history, owner, and on and on and onWe miss that little girl. She will never be forgotten. Olga BakerTim and Sue were very supportive of Second Chance Pom Rescue, operated by Barbara McClatchey.

It breaks my heart to think we have unethical breederswho want to proliferate such in our beloved poms. Two thousand years ago it was written in the Bible that the LOVE OF MONEY ISTHE ROOT OF ALL EVIL. Breeders who breed designer dogs are after one thing and that is money.I can remember quite distinctly that I wrote the committee for the latest standard back in the nineties pleading with them not to allowall colors and patterns. In fact my exact words were, YOU ARE GOING TO OPEN PANDORAS BOX. Their reply back to mewas that they needed to please as many people as they could with the new standard. When is pleasing people got any earthly thing todo with writing a standard It should all be for the welfare and the preservation of our Poms.We have had such a tremendous out-cry from pom breeders against Merles and I am really encouraged that they will be disallowed inthe new standard. I would encourage each of you to write or call the members of the new standard committee and implore them toexclude Merles.Unfortunately the water is already over the day and merle poms are already in the puppy mill establishments. Can you just imaginehow many pom puppies will be born with defects only to be hit over the head with a base ball bat in order to get these new designerpoms that sell for more money.

Hewas born and educated in Tokyo, Japan and is survived by his wife of 45years, Marit, son Erik, daughter Tami and two granddaughters, Jade andRobin. He treasured every moment with his wife and children andenjoyed watching his young granddaughters grow up.LIFE WITH MEDICINE - Jim received his medical degrees inJapan and the US and a PhD degree in physiology from UCLA. Jim andMarit were pioneers in the heart lung machine and met in an operatingroom where they were doing an experimental operation on a goat inCalifornia. They finally settled in Hawaii over 40 years ago where theyraised their family. Jim specialized as a pediatric anesthesiologist savingmany children requiring surgery over his many years of practice. Hisdedication and love for medicine was inspiring and was evident every dayof his life. Here are some quotes by some of his co-workers over theyearsWhat an honor it was to have known Dr. Jim Hattori. He was aclass act I cant imagine what it would have been like to work atKapiolani Hospital without his smiling face, caring spirit, kind ways andinfectious laughter. Jim was an exceptional anesthesiologist and was most certainly a stabilizing factor in the OR, oftenfilled with a type A personalities. Oh, how he loved the babiesIt was such an honor to know and work with Dr. Hattori. I trusted him completely with the anesthesia care formy own children. Ill always remember his kindness to his patients and their families, his warm friendship and superbclinical skills. He will be missed by many.I was a traveling RN in Hawaii at Kapiolani Hospital from 89 to 93 and loved working with Dr. Hattori. I was apediatric operating room nurse from Boston Childrens Hospital and we worked so well together. The pediatric anesthesiacommunity of Hawaii has lost a great manJim was a wonderful man, good friend and colleague who provided excellent specialty services to the children ofHawaii and Pacific Islands for many years.LIFE WITH DOGS - Over the past two decades of dog involvement, the Hattoris have owned several differentbreeds standard and toy Poodles, Dobermans, Silky Terriers, Yorkshire Terriers, Labradors and most recently the HaikuKennel Pomeranians and Miniature Pinschers. They were involved in two major television series with the Dobermansand the Labradors as well as still photography work with professional Japanese Golfers promotion in Hawaii for golfcourses.Doctors are usually known to be good golfers but breaking the mold, Dr. Hattori never golfed but enjoyedshowing and breeding their dogs instead. He loved the hands on involvement with the breeding program and was anexcellent owner handler in conformation as well as obedience. I remember him handling one of his favorite Poms whosecall name was Kitsy Puppy to top pom in Hawaii one year. That was a long time ago and Kitsy is no longer alive butwas known as Kitsy Puppy until the day she died. Haiku kennels had bred two BIS poms which the Hattoris generouslyshared with other people. They are no longer active in showing dogs and have only one pet Pom left to keep Maritcompany.Traveling was a passion for the Hattoris and Jim had many experiences to share when he returned from the manytrips that he took. He and Marit loved to travel to the dog shows and I remember them taking a group of us to see a horsefarm on my very first trip to the APC Nationals in Louisville in 2003. In later years, they enjoyed cruising to exoticplaces and visited Norway Marits birthplace several times to visit some distant relatives who treated them like royalty.Genuinely gracious, he was especially appreciative of the continuous love and support provided by his family andfriends during his illness.It is with great sadness that we express our deep feelings of loss for a truly great man. His life will always beremembered with highest honor and respect. His legacy is rich with deep love for humanity, a lively spirit, devotion anddedication to his work and family, generosity and kindness for all and so much more. We will miss Dr. Hattori very muchand we will always remember him for having lived the life he loved.Dr. Jim HattoriMEMORIAL2008 MAY JUNE Pom Review.p65 4132008, 451 PM93i i i in4uHS^Iyl \K \' t j^ij6 ftiMM iTV4 4494 - APC POMERANIAN REVIEWSunshine RosesandSunshine and Roses are published free of charge.
