Kronfeld Conclusion GODDARD GRANT HEYDE HUNDLEY MILLER YIPS YAPS2 POMERANIAN REVIEWIvPRESIDENTSMESSAGEBy DARRELL W. BAKER 20 Shirleen Drive Seabrook, Texas 77586Warm weather has come to Texas, and probably to our good Pom people up East and North also. Were glad you are finally thawing and we continue to be amazed at your endurance. Southerners cannot relate to such cold weather. Most of you know the Millers Ken and Eleanor well-known Pomeranian people from up in Ohio. We are always amused when Eleanor screams about the horrible cold weather, ice, snow, etc., etc. and proclaims, I WILL NEVER SPEND ANOTHER WINTER IN THIS . . . NEVER AGAIN . . . THIS TIME I MEAN IT WERE MOVING SOUTH Then comes the thaw and she melts a little until the next big winter. We keep hoping she will finally really do it We strongly suspect this is the shared feelings of many of the people up in the cold North country.While this probably isnt the correct place for this news, it does however seem to be something interesting to all of you ... in Houston in September starting September 6th of this year there will be a big 4-shows-in-one-place type event at the Astro Hall at the Astrodome, with several clubs participating to provide an event similar to the big Denver-4-show weekend held several years ago. Houstons specialty show Pom will be on September 6th with other big all-breed shows to follow the next three days. Then another all-breed show will be just down the road on Sunday, resulting in 5 DOG SHOWS IN 5 DAYS. Sounds great, doesnt it You will find an ad in this issue of theReview with particulars and an address to which you can write for Premium Lists and information. Youve plenty of time now, so make your plans to come to Texas Houston in September. Hurricane season is just about over then . . . kidding, of course We hope to plan some more special fun for the Pomeranian people and feel this might be a super-nice vacation for just about ANYONE. Till next time, thanks for your support.COVER STORYBy RANDALL FRECHMy thats a nice brood bitch. Yes, we have all heard that comment with the under current being But really too large to show. My cover story hopefully shows that a nice brood bitch can be a winner too Fancy Lady weighs a solid six pounds and finished her championship in record time. She is beautifully coated in a rich orange color with good bone, lovely head and sound movement. Proving she can do it all, she free whelped 'two lovely show quality puppies and is currently expecting a new litter. Fancy Lady is sired by Randys Jolly Wee Tuffy who is the sire of Ch. Randys Jolly Wee Peppi and out of Randys Pride and of Duke who was sired by Ch. Randys Duke of Dragonfly. She is my ideal of what a Pom bitch should be. I am so proud that the judges recognized her quality and potential. Girls like this are rare and wonderful. I am striving to produce more like her. They will surely benefit the breed by being truly dual purpose to the point where comments like, Thats a nice brood bitch. will be the finest compliment one can receive.COVERThe October Cover has been sold.

Photo by Ritter.DEADLINE FOR OCTOBER AUGUST 20thThe Bay Colony Pomeranian Club Specialy was held on April 15, 1978, in conjunction with the South Shore Kennel Club, Inc. Due to some scheduling changes it was necessary to use this earlier date, rather than our usual time in late June or July.We were very lucky in that with changing the date, we were still able to draw 33 entries, to make this a very nice Specialty.In the 6-9 Month Puppy Dog Class, Nancy Vayos Donayo Matchless Enchanter took the First Place. This was a very nice Puppy, with a very full coat. Next, was the Bred-By-Exhibitor Class and this was won by My-Pats Northern Spy, owned by Dr. P. Scelso and Michael Meyer. This is an extremely nice dog, with an excellent Front and Rear. Moving on to the Open Dog Class, AOAC, the ribbon was taken by Jafcos Mr. Peepers of Tiny-Tykes owned by Ina Kniffen. This dog continued on to win Winners Dog, with Reserve going to Jabils Jiminy Cricket, owned by Virginia and Robert Claar.In the Puppy Bitches, 6-9 Month, Holland Honds Sensation, owned by Harriet Oinkosky took First Place. A red puppy and very sound. In the Bred-By- Exhibitor, the ribbon again went to Dr. P. Scelso and Michael Meyer for their My-Pats Phanciphul Phoebe, a very nice bitch. Next the American Bred Class saw Anne Knowles, Waks Golden Diamond Girl take the First Place. The Open Class presented some very nice Bitches and I know that our Judge, Mr. 'George Fowler had a hard time making the decision. When he did, it went to Topaze Mary Friskie, owned by Francis Casey. This is a very, very nice Sable with a beautiful coat. Mary Friskie went on to take Winners Bitch and Best of Winners.Next, came the Specials, all groomed to perfection and looking very proud.

A very nice dog.After the Best of Breed, we were fortunate to have two Braces in the ring. This class was won by Anne Knowles and her Ch. Waks little Robin of Hadleigh and Waks Golden Diamond Girl.Immediately after the Judging, we had a Buffet. This is an annual item, with the food being donated by the members. Each year this is handled by Carmen Eckman and her daughter Ruth, who always do an outstanding job of getting everything together and making it come out right.With our earlier date, we missed seeing some of our friends from different parts of the country, but hopefully next year we will be able to get a later date.As with any show or Specialty everyone works hard and I feel that it goes without saying that all of the Bay Colony members thank everyone who was involved in making our Specialty so enjoyable. Thanks.BABY LOVE LOVES BABIESBy Lennis Rainesi. JDale nurses while Chip looks on.JChipgets his face washed while Dale peeks out to see what is going on.Baby Love was my first Pom. I bought her from Mrs. Tankesley of Dixieland Kennels. She will be 7 years old this June. She is one of the most devoted Poms Ive ever seen. I havent bred her for the past two years, as I am so fond of her and Im afraid something might happen to her.About 8 months ago, one of my bitches gave birth to 7 puppies. Needless to say, she didnt have enough milk for all of them. I noticed Baby running to the nursery door and crying. Well, the first thing I knew she had so much milk it was dripping out. I gave her two pups out of the litter and she took them and they flourished on her milk until the age of 8 weeks.Recently the local power company cut down a tree and a litter of 3 squirrels fell out. One was killed in the fall, but the other two were brought to me to raise. Needless to say, I dont have time to feed baby squirrels, but Baby began crying and I gave them to her. She quickly washed their faces and curled up around them and they began nursing. She developed milk and is taking excellent care of them. Im sure if they were with their natural mother they would be weaned by now as they have teeth. But they are very gentle with Baby and she with them and there is a great love affair going on between them. I think Baby is a most unusual Pom and I wanted to share this with our readers.POMERANIAN REVIEW 17Ck ridcendoCongratulates . . .Jessie and Barbara Young and all their gorgeous Jabil PomsFriends we love to see on our trips to New England.We have recently finished two Canadian champions.

Box 1259 Canada, B2N 5N218 POMERANIAN REVIEWMY VIEWS OF CRUFTS 1978By NORMAN JEROMEAs I had never attended Crufts dog show in England, I decided this had to be the year. This was to he the last show held at Olympia, for the building is to be razed. The show will be held at a new site beginning next year, Earls Court. I have attended several shows in England and in my opinion I would not consider Crufts my favorite for several reasons, the main one being the sheer vastness of the show and the crowds of people. It is totally impossible to take everything in, in one day. However, I would not have missed going to this show for anything. Would I go again Definitely yes.The show was held Feb. 10 and Sat. Feb. 11th. To give an idea of the size there were 5,098 dogs entered the first day and 4,918 the second for a total of 10,016 dogs of 142 breeds with 100 judges deciding the best. Afghans led the entries with 285.The first days judging was Toys, Working and Utility equivalent to our Non Sporting. There were 32 rings being utilized on this day. It might be mentioned at this point, prior to the show a world conference of Kennel Clubs was held in London representatives of thirty countries were present. Mr. William Stifel represented the U.S.A. One of the main topics was the problem of standardizing the standards for all breeds throughout the world.There was an entry of sixty-seven Poms from forty-four exhibitors. Mrs. Rosaland Bemey Smith had the task of sorting out the best. Mrs. Smith is a life-long breeder of Poms, with the prefix of Arum. There were four classes here for dogs and four for bitches, however these classes were huge, there were six Champions entered in the classes also the English system is somewhat different from ours inasmuch as Champions compete in the open class.The first place winners in all the classes then compete as here for the coveted Challenge Certificate points. A dog must have won three C.C.s before it can be crowned a Champion. It is rather more difficult in England to make a Champion up than in America.On this day the winners were Dog C.C. Ch. Majada Sunny Boy at Katula, Reserve C.C. Hadleigh Stardust. Bitch C.C and Best of Breed Ch. Cynpegs Oriole, Reserve C.C. Ch. Ringlands Gaity Girl at Rosskear.Oriole owned by Cynthia Harper, is a very tiny orange sable with the sweetest of expressions.The Toy Group was judged by Mr. Robert Flavell, the renowned breeder- judge who heads the house of Wilmscote Pomeranians. In a hotly contested group the nod was given to the great Yorkie, Oh. Blairsville Royal Seal who then went on to Reserve Best in Show. Oh. Cynpegs Oriole was judged Reserve Winner in the Toy Group. B.I.S. judged by Mrs. Gwen Broadley, was awarded to the four year old Wire Hair Fox Terrier, owner bred and handled, Ch. Harrow Hill Huntsman.It was my pleasure to meet Jean Schroll and a friend over for Crufts, we had a nice chat at ringside and I understand Jean was interested in purchasing a top Pom.I was most delighted to be the 'guest of Mr. Mrs. Gerald Winter of Rosskear Poms, and Andrew Brace after the show in the lovely Wales countryside. Andrew had a grand win with his young Peke. R.C.C. Mellifont Ladybug of Tragband. It was a beautiful ending to a great show adventure, and the huge home, hospitality, gorgeous dogs, and friendship in Wales will not soon be forgotten.For other views of Crufts, see Pacific Northwest News Views, Page 76.POMERANIAN REVIEW 19OYER THE RIVER AND THROUGH THE WOODSTO GRANDMOTHERS HOUSE WE GOSaysQue Sera Samson of La RitaSired by Jabils Xtra SpecialSamson", Best Puppy and Best in Match, at the Puget Sound Pomeranian Club Sanction B Match, April 16, 1978, and his sister Que Sera Delilah of La Rita, want to send their love toGrandma Champion Varneys Jabil Dream GirlGrandpa Champion abils Dandy Lion C.

The kennel is used for grooming and boarding only. The Boms and Shih Tzu are house dogs. This can be a bit heotic at times, but with a sense of humor and the proper discipline, the Youngs think that this is the best way to raise dogs.Jabil Kennel is located in rural New Hampshire, outside the state capital of Concord. There are 30 acres of -land adjoining the kennel, with the house being the highest house in the county. On a clear day there is a 100 mile view. The name Jabil was coined by a Doberman breeder by combining Jessies nickname Jay and her husbands Bill Jay Bill.sFront view of house with hoarding-grooming kennel on the right. Jessie and some of the Poms are in the yard in front of the house. A one-acre grass yard and paddock is behind the house.In 1948 Jessie bought her first puppy, a Collie. There have been Collies at Jabil ever since, along with Dobermans, Dal- mati-ons, Poodles, a German Shepherd, Beagle and a Great Dane. At present there is only one Collie left, a beautiful blue merle by the name of Faerie Dean Jabils Blu Zircoon. Teddy is now 5 years old and has matured into a large, maginficent adult. Right now he is being shown by his breeder and has 6 Canadian Points plus 1 American point. Also in residence are two Shih Tzu, Lotus and Pebbles, plus an assortment of cats one being 18 years old. Cats and dogs mix in well together.Barbaras interest in dogs came about by being raised with them. Jessie also has two -sons, George and Drew.

The combination of Marys guidance and gentle prodding, plus a knowledge of genetics already -obtained from the Collie breeding and a large helping of good luck has led to the success Jabil has had in just a few brief years.

They are also very grateful to Marys husband Case for his grooming lessons and demonstrations, which they still refer to.The year 1970 saw the first Pom arrive at Jabil, a lovely linebred Thelcolynn and Scotia bitch. She is Jabil Petite Delilah, CD and is the backbone of the Jabil line. Delilahs full sister Adkins Star of Band Box. was the second dog at Jabil and that was the beginning of the Jabil Poms.which resulted in one male puppy, Group winning Am, Can. Oh. Jabils Dandy Lion, CD. Next, Delilahs sister was bred to Denny which also resulted in one male puppy Ch. Jabils Chester P. Honeyhugger. All 'the Jabil Poms are linebred to Ch.

' a-- .Jessie and Poms at play in the front Pom yard.It was about this time 1972 that Barbara suggested that she and her Mother combine their interest and knowledge in dogs into a vocation. The carriage house which had held 12-15 Collies was converted into a grooming and boarding kennel. It is 24 hour work, but it enables them to always be just a few feet and seconds away from the Boms. The business has flourished and last year they were able to double the kennel size. Also last year a large exercise yard was added on, for the 20 plus Poms and Shih Tzu. It is directly attached to the house. Its entrance is via the living room door and can always be observed from 3 rooms of the house, as well as from the kennel.Mary Casey had had good results with Scotia bitches bred to her Am., Can., Bda. Ch. Nanjo Interlude. With that hi mind, Delilah was bred to Denny,1 1ma"JS5Jessie Ch. Jabils Chester P. Honeyhugger in front of trophies displayed in the living room. The picture is of three of the Jabil studs. Used on January 1978 cover, this picture will be seen in color in the Anniversary issue.All puppies are bom next to Jessies bed. When they are old enough they are moved to playpens in the living room. There they are handled often and adjust to the different sounds and people. Older puppies spend a lot of time in the kitchen. All the dogs learn to bait while watching human and canine food being prepared. At the beginning of this visit, I mentioned that all 'the Jabil dogs are house dogs, and that they are Whenever Barb and Jessie move about the downstairs, there is a horde of Poms of assorted sizes and colors plus the Shih Tzu following them. The dogs know that several times a day they will each get their turn of being picked up and loved. Needless to say the dogs in their own way return the love. Visitors at thePOMERANIAN REVIEW 23house always receive a noisy welcome and as soon as they are settled they usually find a friendly Pom or two or three on their laps or bringing them toys to play with. Theres no such thing as an unfriendly or unsociable dog at Jabil.HJJessie and Am. Can. Ch. Jabils Simply Smashing Dog beds like the one in nse under the table are throughout the house.2afeIAll of the Poms join in for practice in baiting.In addition to raising her family and managing the kennel, Jessie has found time for many other things. One of her favorite hobbies, which she never seems to have enough time for is painting. Several fine examples of her talent hang in the house. She is also co-founder of The New Hampshire Collie Club and of The New Hampshire Obedience Club.She is the current President of The Bay Colony Pomeranian Club.One of Barbaras favorite pasttimes is writing. She writes The American Pomeranian club column in The A.K.C. Gazette. She has just become Editor of The Lakes Region Kennel Club Newsletter. Another hobby is photography. She also finds time to do some gardening. Horses have long been one of her favorite animals, even before dogs. Barbara tries to attend horse shows whenever possible and maybe might consider showing horses.'Puppies are born in Jessies bedroom. This is Ch. Varneys Jabil Dream Girl with her new children.In January of this year, the Youngs battled the elements of a New England blizzard and the flu bug to bring two Poms and two Shah Tzu to a scheduled live TV appearance in Boston. The normally IV2-2 hour trip took 4 hours Then on top of all that all they got was less than five minutes of show time. This show of dedication on their part resulted in both of them being hit by pneumonia. Then before either one of them was fully recuperated, it was on to New York City for The APC Specialty where Jessie was Show Chairman and Barbara was Show Secretary. Once there, they overcame almost insurmountable obstacles brought on by the Blizzard of 78 to do an outstanding job.Continued on Page 4824 POMERANIAN REVIEWSILVER MEADOWS FARMWritten May 10th Its Springtime and were expecting Inquiries invited re the following matings all due in June.1 S.M.

In most cases, the poisonous substance is an alkaloid and the treatment is supportive rather than specific. Puppies, with their constant curiosity and tendency to chew anything and everything, are the usual victims.

It was well supported by both exhibitors and visitors, with a genuine interest in the Pomeranian. The trophy table was beautiful. Most of the trophies were donated by Maryanne Melville. Most of the long time breeders will remember Maryanne. The table was adorned with a beautiful summer bouquet provided by Sylvia Harbin. She also provided a corsage for our judge.Our judge was Jane Bennett Jane has conducted many handling classes in this area and is a licensed judge for Dobermans. Jane made it a real thrill for our visitors as well as the exhibitors by giving a complete critique and inviting questions at any time during her judging. Truly a day to remember.It was a real thrill for Erin Hundley, taking Best in Match from the 4-6 mo. Puppy Class, with Samson, a dog of her own breeding. Other winners were Tigres Final Fling, Irene Harbin owner breeder, 6-9 Mo. bitch class. Lady Faustine owned by Rene Ken Rotta, with a double entry, 9-12 Mo.

These two did very well for 5 Mo. old, and so did Erin. We included an Exhibitors Class Only. This was a class for Pointed Poms. It was the largest class entry. They were not in competition with the others. Each handler gave a resume of the dogs achievements and breeding, for the benefit of our visitors. Last but far from Least was The Parade of Champions.

They played from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. without a break.The Hundleys and the Harbins did better at the show. Hundleys Dolly took Winners Bitch both days and also Best Puppy with Que Sera GiGi of Golden Glow. The Harbins took WD and BOB both days.

There are many puppy matches coming up and I hope everyone has someone to show.It has been a rough winter outside and it hasnt been easy in the whelping box lately either. I received the following letter from Mrs. Ruth DoctorIn your column in the Pom Review in January, 1978, you stated it was a poor year for puppies. Ive raised Poms for 28 years and never, never had such poor luck. I only raised 1 pup out of three females. One female stopped labor I was not positive her breeding took as I never felt or saw a pup move. I normally have to watch her weight. I thought she was having a false pregnancy she started to labor stopped and was contented like it was all over. The next a.m. I saw a little footthe pup started down the wrong horn I lost 3 pups and the mother the Vet said it wasnt my fault she stopped labor as pup did not press against her pelvic bone. I lost another pup for no reason at all came 63rd day was lovely pup. She had no trouble but pup was dead.The last female had 3 pups on 57th day, 2 oz. - 2 oz. and other one was approximately 2 oz. was malformed I tube fed 2 oz one for a week wouldnt nurse but it never gained more than Vi -oz. The other pup is 7 weeks old and beautiful. Out of 11 females only 3 came in heat last spring. I watched them real close and vet said other animals were not normal this last year.I did have Shell strips in Kennel and have disposed of them. Our Poms are so small thought they strips might be the cause.I thought it might be mold in the food but vet didnt feel this could be thecause as it is processed and would kill mold germ. He did tell me to make a dog abort -they give them -ergotmoldy wheat germso I wonder. If you have any ideas from any one please have them write me as its really a puzzle to me what went wrong.P.S. I used different males so he is not at fault. If anyone has any ideas, you can send them to Ruth at 6914 Wayne Trace, Et. Wayne, Ind. 46816. And thanks for your letter, Ruth its nice to know someone is reading my articleThe following is a letter that was read at the Cleveland All-Breed Training Club, Inc.

R. 1AMERICUS, KS. 66835 Ph. 316-884-515744 POMERANIAN REVIEWFEEDING FOR BREEDINGBy DR. DAVID S. KRONFELD Ph.D., D.Sc., MVSc.ConclusionFEEDING MANAGEMENTPoor feeding management, I am convinced, is responsible for more complaints in dogs faulty diets. The two most common problems are under-or- over-feeding, and abrupt changes in type of food.Any diet rich in animal fat and protein is going to be very palatable and should not be fed free choice. A study conducted in 1925 is often cited to support the idea that dogs instinctively eat only the right amount of food. The diets in that study were not particularly palatable, and the proposition seems to hold only with the least palatable cereal products which are designed for use free-choice. I recommend that you should feed by hand and eye, starting with the average intake from Table 1, then adjusting every second week, a little up or down, until your animal reaches the desired body weight.Avoid any sudden changes in amounts or types of food, e.g. from carbohydrates to fat and protein or vice versa. Both the dogs digestive secretions and the population of microorganisms in Sts large intestine must adapt to new substances delivered to them. This takes time, at least a few days, possibly two weeks. Signs of poor adaption are loose stools or diarrhea and flatulence, perhaps bad breath. Hold still or back off slightly entirely abandoning the new food may be a bigger change than persisting with 'it, so dont panic. Also, when changing foods, make sure not to overfeed, better to underfeed slightly.Carnivores do not eat well when threatened even slightly. Allay fears by feeding in a safe familiar place and avoiding any distractions. Adhere to routine.BEFORE BREEDINGOnce you decide to breed a bitch, make sure she is healthy. Examine her for worms and treat as required. Check her vaccination record and make good any deficiencies. Feed her to reach the desired body weight. If you and I were to look at a series of dogs, perhaps only 5 out of 100 of you would like them to be as thin as I do. Use Table 1 as an initial guide. Let us say she is 40 lbs. and you want her to be 35 lbs. in 3 months time. Looking at the Table, select a slightly lower body weight than that desired, e.g. 33 lbs. Now an average sedentary healthy adult of 33 lbs. would require 10 oz. of dry food about 2M to 4 cupfuls depending on the degree or puff of the cereal or about 2 cans. You can choose a combination, say 5 oz. dry food and 1 can a day. Then try cutting down to 4 oz. Many dogs start begging when underfed. Splitting the daily ration into 2 feeds will usually diminish begging, and it is quite a good practice in a brood bitch even at this stage.About three or four weeks before you want to mate her, start to build her diet up a little. This is a practice called flushing in livestock. A positive nutritional balance does bring on estrus sooner and lead to higher conception rates. The mechanism appears to involve pituitary hormones. After mating, she should be returned to maintenance.GESTATIONSome recommend increasing food energy intake by about 20 two or three weeks after mating. Others delay the increase until five or six weeks. In a Beagle, each fetus weighs about 15 grams at 40 days, 90 g at 50 days, and about 300 g at birth. Obviously, the last two weeks are crucial. At this time, many factors tend to diminish food intake, especially if the bitch is too fat. That is one of the reasons why I prefer to make any additions in the form of meat and fat or a canned meat based product. The conceptus usurps abdomiPOMERANIAN REVIEW 4MIDAS POMERANIANS A Star is BomOn Christmas Eve, we were presented with Midas Christmas Star, a sable son of Ch. Bonners Kristin Starmist.

Parkas Penstyle Robynhood NEW ADDRESSJon Roberta Massey Racine, Wisconsin 534021209 Carlton Drive 414 639-6885nal space, so feeding twice a day allows a longer transit time, better digestion and absorption. The bitch may tend to lose her appetite just before whelping. This is no great cause for alarm. Offer her the foods she likes best among the foods she is used to, but do not force her. In the example begun above with a 35 lb. bitch, if she has been fed 10 oz. dry food, I would mix in 4 can meat- based food or comparable additions ofmilk, liver, or yeast and oil as described above. If she had been fed half cereal and half meat, I would increase both but not take the cereal above 10 oz. She would weigh between 35 and 38 lbs. immediately after whelping.LACTATIONAfter whelping, her needs will depend on the number of pups. If only two or three she will need little more than she46 POMERANIAN REVIEWwas given towards the end of pregnancy. Any bitch with four or more pups should probably he allowed to eat free-choice. She will obviously be able to consume more useful food energy if fed more fat and essential nutrients and, as a corollary, fed less starch and fiber, d.e., relatively less cereal. Note relatively she probably can continue on maintenance intake of cereal and obtain extra food needs as meat and meat byproducts.The pups should start to nibble the hitchs food at three or four weeks, depending on the precocity of the breed.It may be necessary if the pups are few to restrict her food intake. But if she has a normal size litter, she probably can contiue consuming food free-choice until ithey are weaned. She should not weigh less than 30 lb., preferably not less than 35 lb., i.e. her pre-mating weight if she has been fed as well as possible.If a hitch dries up too soon, she has probably been fed inadequately. Next time remember that dietary protein promotes milk production, and that this creates a demand for milk fat precursors. These must be provided from the diet or the bitch will have to mobilize body stores of fat.WEANINGThis is a crucial time in the emotional and metabolic development of pups.Some kennels wean at six weeks, e.g. for the AAFCO protocols or for sale. It is probably better to wait another two or three weeks for natural weaning. In either case, some effort should be made to creep feed the pups at about four weeks. The sled dogs, for example, are called out just beyond the bitohs chain three or four times a day, and are rewarded with a little highly palatable feed. In one beautifully managed Greyhound kennel, the bitch is placed in an adjacent pen, separated from her pups by a chain link fence for an hour or two. The period is gradually lengthened, until the bitch is brought to her pups only twice, then once, a day for feeding.Whatever the actual system, the principal is clear weaning should he as smooth and atraumatic as possible.This principle also applies to the food. The milk of the bitch contains about 35 protein and 40 fat on a dry matter basis. If pups are shifted abruptly to 22 protein and 5 fat, -i.e. the NRCs minimums for growth as well as maintenance, setbacks should be expected. I recommend higher contents of protein and fat, approaching the levels in hitchs milk, for pups before, during and immediately after weaning.THE STUDTwo-and-a-half words suffice for the nutrition of the stud dog Dont Overfeed.

But did you know about the problem they had with the show catalogs It seems that they were amongst the missing until almost show time. Jessie and Barbara along with several volunteers, Pom friends and Hotel workers scoured all the possible hiding places in the Hotel many times over before finally finding them. What a time They are going to give it another try next year with Jessie again being Show Chairman and Barbara Trophy Chairman.Whenever I think of or visit Jabil Kennel, my mind always goes back to an afternoon last summer as I sat with two very dear friends admiring the 100 mile view and watching hawks circle lazily in the distance. The Jabil Poms romping in the exercise yard and my two were asleep beside us. The peaceful, serene feeling that prevailed, I will cherish forever.If I were asked to give a one word description of Jabil Kennel, it would be LOVE.OBEDIENCE EXHIBITORSLets make January 1979 the BEST and BIGGEST Obedience Issue we have ever hadAdvertise your wins, send in your news.POMERANIAN REVIEWDanzig Gallant Foxgoing Group I, under Mrs. Mary Brewster, At Savannah, Georgia^ ta.-MittHe is handled fey Richard Koester.

Someone asked me, What are you using, and I thought, Gee, I thought everyone knew about that. Well, obviously not everyone does know about that great little trick of yours. Youve probably been using it for years, without even thinking about it. Or maybe it is such a good idea that you assume everybody has thought of it. But thats just not the case. So take a couple of minutes to jot down an oldie- -but-goldies and send it to me. If youre a novice, perhaps you have a fresh approach. Share it with us. Herewith some of my own oldies-but-goodies.Soft, moist cat food makes a terrific bait. It comes in foil packets that slip neatly into a pocket. It is already in Pom-size bits, and mine love it. One packet will last 2 or 3 shows, but it is cheap enough to use a fresh packet each show.An infants wash cloth also fits easily into a pocket, and is handy for wiping watery eyes. One proved invaluable the time my bitch backed up and sat in a puddle just as our class was called at the Garden.How does anyone get along without a big stock of old and therefore soft towels I cover the grooming table with one ,put one in the bottom of each travel crate, cover my lap with one at home I do all my grooming in my lap. The whelping box and puppy incubators are lined with towels. The matrons prefer them, and I think theyre more sanitary than newspapers. They also give scrabbling puppies more traction. If you have a Pom that gets carsick, or if it should rain at an outdoor show, those towels are worth their weight in purple ribbons.My husband developed the following system for transporting orphaned or sick newborn puppies to the veterinarian. Fill a one pound margarine tub with hot water and put the top on. Put it inthe bottom of a small, round styrofoam ice bucket. Set a pot holder or similar padding on top of that. Now wrap the puppy loosely in a soft cloth or towel, put in the ice bucket, and put the top on the bucket. This keeps the pup warm and secure. The weight of the water will keep the bucket steady, but if youre extra cautious, put 'it in a box and pack newspapers around it.When it is dog feeding time, I put down plastic place mats with dog pictures on them, naturally, then set the dish on top. Each dog has her own spot to eat and is trained to touch only the dish put in that place. After theyre finished, I take up dishes and place mats at the same time. The place mats keep the floor clean. Now will somebody please tell me how to keep my toddler out of the water dishesWhen you are training your dog for show, Im sure you try to use different surroundings. Try to think of the various environments he might encounter in a ring. Several of us have had problems with dogs balking when gaited toward a light-colored wall. After one of mine did this, I took her to our obedience clubs training building, which has white cinder block walls inside, and ran her into the walls. That is, I forced her to move toward the walls, then gave her a treat when she got there. Two brief sessions solved the problem.A 3 hydrogen peroxide solution will neutralize bloodstains, even dried ones, quickly and completely. It is safe and effective on fabrics, floors, and Poms. Get a fresh bottle before your brood is due to whelp it does have a limited shelf life. Of course, it is also a mild antiseptic. Editors note Test on fabric peroxide is a bleachA junior size baby food jar is just the right size for holding cotton swabs in the tack box. What are the swabs for Dip one in powder, then carefully go over eyestains with it.Pediatric medicines, gentle enough for infants, are also good for home doctoring of Poms.

Liquiprinan acetomenophen solution, this one is more dilute than other brands, which make it easier to measure smaller doses.

Namely the summer specialty held in Kennesaw, Georgia a suburb of Atlanta. Yes, we of the southern area are hard at work making plans for the very best summer specialty ever to be held anywhere Please start making plans to join us in October. We promise a grand time to be had by all with the extra bonus of two shows that should provide 5 point majors. We are also planning a puppy sweepstakes, so start those youngsters out with an eye toward a win at the specialty. Lennis Raines has promised a special treat in entries with practically one of every color . . . chocolates, blues, beaver, chocolate and tan as well as black and tan. For those who have never seen some of these rare colors, here is your opportunity. Randy Freeh is making plans to host a grand buffet on Friday prior to the show on Saturday, and she does have the most gorgeous home and grounds to entertain all of us.I have been to quite a few shows and we had marvelous entries on the Tar Heel circuit with 4 point majors most every day. Joyce Apple piloted a lovely little deep orange male owned and bred by Ruth Beam to his championship during this circuit. He is now Ch. Great Elms Timstopper Too. Ruth couldnt believe that he finished so fast, but it isnt hard to see why as he is every inch deserving of his title.Edna Girardot finished Scotia Toby Precious Ooleen on this circuit. She took time out in the middle of showing to beoome a mama back in October. She is a very nice Pom, orange with dense coat and showmanship to envy.A lovely black -and tan bitoh shown for Dr. and Mrs. Carson by Marlene Scott also completed her title. She is Ch. Emcees Satina of Great Elms, bred by Ruth Beam.Best of Breed winners at these shows were Ch. Emcees Solid Gold Diamond, Ch. Lenniss Tequila Sunnrise, and Ch. Funfairs Binto-O Joe Dandy. Competition was very keen both in classes and in specials.Another recent champion who has been really cleaning up at the shows in our area is Jodi Hudspeths Ch. Honeycrest Razle Daz'le Dante who has already numerous group firsts and at least one best in show.As the shows move outdoors we have run into several rather wet ones. These conditions seems to separate the dogs from the pups men from the boys well anyway not too many Poms enjoy wading through puddles. I guess we should occasionally let our dogs experience greater variety in surfaces so they will not object when the going gets a bit rough.Please send me your news.

Her little Seabright Atilla The Hun-ey Murdoch to his friends was entered in the Novice Division and wasthe only Pom in the entire show. His scores in the three shows which made up the two day event, were 193, 195 and 195. Poor Debbie was suffering from a severe cold during the entire week-end. She says, I had been looking forward to the classic as a chance to meet handlers from throughout the country, but ended up spending the time I wasnt showing curled up in my folding chair. If anyone noticed Im sure they must have thought I was a terrible snob Cheer up, Debbie it looks as though you and Murdoch have a very bright future in obedience.Margaret McKee of Riohmond, Virginia tells her obedience students, About the only hard and fast rule you can make about showing a dog in obedience is expect 'the unexpected Margaret says that was brought home to her last fall when she had GEM, her tiny Pom, in a puppy novice class. She writes I was so elated to discover that he actually likes to retrieve that I entered him in four trials in Novice B. I immediately regretted it as he reallywasnt ready. He began cutting up and running away during practice sessions. However, I decided to take him anyway as since I had paid the entry fee he might as well get some ring experience. To my utter astonishment he qualified with a score of 191. The next day he repeated under a tough judge with a 192. The following week-end he polished it off with a 195 and third in a class of 46. Congratulations on a new C.D. who is full of happy surprises.All the way from Puerto Rico comes the good news from Angie Ruiz that at the Puerto Rico Dog Obedience Club Trial recently, her black female Pom, Sel-Sals Pepper of P.R. completed her third leg in Novice with a score of 194 and was high scoring dog in the show. Pepper has made her C.D. title taking first place in three consecutive trials. Now Angies two Poms, Sel-Sals Pepper of P.R. and Sel-Sals Liza of P.R. both have their C.D.s, and incidentally these are the only two female Poms who have obedience titles if Puerto Rico.We send our heartiest congratulations to our Obedience Columnist, Emma Heyde, on the near-perfect track completed by her English Cocker in earning the T.

Lynnwood, Wa 98036What is more exciting than a vacation Well it could he anything, but to Jean Schroll, Bess Pickens, and Bea George it was a trip to England to the big dog show at Crufts. These three members of the Columbia Pomeranian Club, were fortunate to go on a tour together and enjoy the sights of London and shared the dog show also. Bess asked Bea to write her impressions for our newsletter. I found their comments very interesting and persuaded Jean to add her thoughts so that I could share them with you.MY IMPRESSION OF CRUFTS By BEA GEORGEYou asked for a few of my thoughts on the trip to London and the Crufts Show. Naturally the first impression is of bigness. After all, 11,500 dogs to be shown in one building in two days, Im sure takes a lot of doing. It took place on two levels which helped. The small dogs were one the upper level which was somewhat like a mezzanine around the building. I will surely give credit to the breeders who put on a show of such magnitude, but at the same time I must say it did not compare with our own local show at the Coliseum or Expo Center for the smoothness of operation.Naturally Poms were my prime interest as I had hoped to see some very choice dogs and had anticipated bringing a bitch home with me. I was defeated on both counts inasmuch as the Japanese are still buying everything available and at prices beyond belief.During the Pom judging there were a number of Japanese at ringside taking pictures and you would hear them saying so often champion.. . . champion . . . champion. They know what they want and will pay any price. You cannot blame the breeders for getting it. We were not impressed with what was shown overall, a very few nice dogs, the rest just average. They trim their dogs all over the whole body rounding off the chest area, the pants area and all the leg feathers are cut off. This is to their liking and they feel that our way leaves the Poms skraggly. Each to his own I guess.Their judging ring left a great deal to be desired too, just benches around a small area without even a rope around it. People would even roam out across the ring during judging. Their system of scoring is much different and there were lots more classes so it was quite a long session. So, I came away from the show rather disappointed and much more appreciative of our breed as it is represented here at home.The trip itself was wonderful throughout. Every available minute spent in touring and sightseeing and trying to keep warm. It was very cold but every one was so very nice your heart was warmed whether your feet were warm or not. I could go on and on but I was asked for one page.I was very sorry we did not get to New York in time for the Pom Specialty but just a few hours late. There was a large entry and it would have been a priviledge to attend and compare with the English Poms.BESS PICKENSI too had a marvelous time at Crufts and sightseeing but do not think I care to go again. I found Pekes just as good and as poor as we have, but shown in greater numbers and overall I was disappointed at the way they were shown and the grooming was poorly done overall.

Westminster I liked and will go again as often as I can.JEAN SCHROLLI want to say my trip to England was really enjoyable. It is a once in a lifetime thing. The Historical things to see are absolutely fantastic. Crufts Dog Show was the largest Ive ever seen. There was not enough time to see all the dogs one would like to see, so inasmuch as Poms were my biggest interest, we spent most of our time there. There were 67 Poms entered and as I remember off the top of my head, there were no absentees. The judging took much longer than here in America. The dogs were lovely. Several very outstanding ones. The quality of English Poms is very much like our own. I believe as a whole though they are much smaller than ours. This, I feel is bad for the breed. It was certainly strange to see a Pom with every hair on its body trimmed. It was hard to tell about the coat because of the allover trimming. The pants and bib were so short it was difficult to tell what the approximate length would be. They had very pretty but quite short muzzles.I would love to go again.v.1 c.ALONGMYWAYBy MOLLY MILLER P. O. Box 717 League City, Texas 77573Although the Pomeranian standard recognizes many colors, the average person has only seen two or three. Many of the colors have not even been seen by experienced Pom breeders yet, there seems to be a current increase in the interest in the less usual Pom colors.Last August I was surprisingly swept into the area of rare Pom colors when much to my surprise one of my orange bitches who had been bred to a black male whelped two females one black and one blue. As a result of showing and winning with this puppy, I have been asked many questions about unusually colored Poms.I realized that the interest was high, and I did not have the answers so, I turned to breeders who have studied and sought unusual colors. I found that our pleasure in a variety of Pom colors is a rather recent occurrence. My fourteen years in Poms often does not give me the scope I need.Dorothy Bonners response gave me this information.Since my adventures in breeding Pomeranians began about 1940, almost every color has appeared. At least, it seems that way when I 'think back, sort of like when I remarked to Gladys Schoenberg one day, Poms are so dear to me that I wish I owned all of them in the world. To which she replied, Sometimes it seems like I do. . . . Pepper Pod gave me most of the unusual colors during the late 50s, as he seemed to have a special talent for turning the dams orange into blues, creams, chocolates, wolf sables, and everything in between.

Because he was extra terriffic ... a wolf sable, was retained and shown to championship ... I did keep another wolf sable, a tiny boy . . . did not throw his color. From then until recently, orange has predominated in our kennel with an occasional cream. With our standard changed colorwise now, I wish that time could be reversed with some of those beautiful shades retrieved.Although breeding here has been for conformation only, temptation has recently presented itself in silver shades. In spite of comments ranging from What an unusual, lovely color, to What color would you call this, to no describable color. Dorothy has successfully shown several of these lovely "silvered Poms.Marge Gorman, after several years of seeking chocolate, remarked, Color breeding for rare colors would be simple if one could take two outstanding specimens of the desired color and breed them together. In the case of blue or chocolate, if both parents were of the desired color so would be the offspring, although the shades of color would vary. Black bred to black does not always produce black. Since one would be lucky to find two outstanding specimens of a rare color to breed together, the serious oolorbreeder must search for dogs that perhaps carry the desired genes. A dog with a chocolate dam who is black will produce chocolate if bred for the color, because he inherited one hidden recessive chocolate gene from his mother. Breeding two such individuals gives the litter a 25 chance of producing the desired color. If one parent is chocolate and the other is black but had a chocolate parent the litter should be 50 chocolate. Dogs that are chocolate or carry the gene often throw blue puppies although blue can be obtained from dogs that do not carry the chocolate genes. For years we have been color breeding for chocolate and have hadfew of the color show up while getting many more than our share of blues that we were not breeding for. Breeding rare colors is always a challenge because type and color must be considered. We have seen lovely recessive gene colors on deplorable type. The serious breeder will work for both and never sacrifice one for the other. There are also surprises in color-breeding. Last year our stock of black and sable produced black and tan.A very interesting genetic study was presented by Dolly Trauner. The brown factor, like the one for black-and-tan, is a genetic recessive. Each parent must contribute a gene for brown to the puppy in order for it to be brown-coated. As a recessive, brown can be carried hidden under other coat colors for many generations ... To keep the brown color, one must breed either to another brown or to a black which is known to carry the brown gene. Bred to another brown, one hopes that all the puppies will be brown but this is not guarantee- able, as Ill explain in a minute. Bred to a black which is carrying the brown gene, 50 of the puppies can hopefully be browns.The brown factor may be more prevalent than most people suppose every liver-nosed orange is carrying a double dose of the brown gene The reason they do not have a brown coat is due to other genetic influences. Actually, a black or a brown coat color is dominant to the genes for red, orange, cream or sable coat color but in the absence of a gene for the dominant coat color a brown- factored dog can only produce the brown pigment or black pigment in parts of its skin nose, eye-rims, lips, anus. Bred to a brown coated dog, a brown-nosed orange would produce a preponderance of brown pups unless Unless the brown coated dog was also carrying the recessive coat color gene for orange, sable, etc., in which case the chance of producing brown coated pups is cut in half. The other half would be brown-nosed oranges . . .POMERANIAN REVIEW 81CH.

Luzerne Cudahy, WI. 53110Group 11 Judge Lorraine Heichel, May 13,197882 POMERANIAN REVIEWOne thing I learned along the way is that there are breeds and the Pom is one of them in which there are two kinds of red, orange or cream coats. In each of these breeds, one kind is the most prevalent and the other kind is quite rare. But, on occasion and generally quite without the owners realizing what is taking place, one kind will be bred to the other kind of red, orange or cream . . . and some of the puppies will be black. . . . what has happened is that a pair of dogs, each with a different pair of recessive genes that have caused them to be orange or anything other than black or brown, have compensated one anothers recessives with a dominant gene. Perhaps a formula will make this more clearAA BB EE black coated dogAA bb EE brown coated dogaa BB EE black-nosed, orange, sable, red, and cream coated dogAA BB ee black-nosed dark orange or red coated dog but can also be lighter orange or cream due to other dilutionsAll dogs have BB, bb, or Bb but can only express black or brown in their coats if they have an A-gene and an E-gene If these last two in the formula were mated, the puppies would all be Aa BB Ee. And, since A, B, E, are the dominants, only one of each gene- pair is needed in order to reconstitute a black coated dog.For the B-gene, there are only two forms, or alleles B or b. But for the A-gene and the Eugene, each has several alternate forms alleles which are all recessive to the A and E required for black or brown coat color. For A-alMes, there are aw permits sabling, ay all the orange tones, down to pale cream, and at black-and-tan. For E-alleles, there are ebr brindle, in a long coated dog, this would appear to be sable same as an aw dog, and e reds and lighter shaded, from mahogany-red down to oranges and pale creams that appear to be the same color as the ay types. The only way to know, for sure, 'that adog is of the uncommon e^type of orange would be if it produced black puppies when bred to another that normally did not produce any blacks . . .A few final thoughts Brown coat color is unstable it is more prone to sunburn, and to the action of various genetic factors for dilution, than is black or any other colorLennis Raines submitted some very interesting first-hand experience in colorbreeding. My interest began when I saw my first chocolate Pom. I liked the color . . . but . . . Every chocolate I saw seemed to be of the type of Pom produced 50 years ago . . . They were excellent in color but the heads and fronts needed a lot of work. The heads were narrow, muzzles long, large ears, no head hair and no leg hair. They were close in front and most were hackie in gait. I tried several different breedings to produce the color and Improve the type. I tried breeding black to chocolate and found that black was very dominate and I rarely got a chocolate . . . The best sable male was bred to a black bitch whose background was, black, wolf- sable, blue, chocolate. The resulting litter was one orange male, one black male and one chocolate female. I kept the chocolate bitch and bred her to the chocolate male . . . The resulting litter was two chocolates and . . . the color was milk chocolate. I obtained a beautiful chocolate male . . . out of a black and a cream ... I bred this male to the chocolate bitch I kept out of the sable and black breeding. The resulting litter was two milk chocolates and one beaver . . . Also the darker the chocolate the worse the type. The lighter shades always have better heads, smaller ears, more head and leg hair. Also chocolates of any shade will fade to a copper color if left out in the sun. Chocolates as a rule are bom chocolate with chocolate noses, eye rims, lips and foot pads . . . Out of my chocolate to chocolate breedings I have produced 90 chocolate.

I have never produced a black-and-tan from chocolate to sable. I believe that sables or heavy sables carry a black-and- tan gene, or at least in my line. At birth some of my sables are black-andtan until age three weeks then orange or red hairs start appearing behind each ear and on chest. I have also gotten black- andtan out of black to sable breedings but the tan markings are never as clear as the sable to sable or black-andtan to sable breedings. I have also bred black- and-tan to black-andtan and gotten all black-and-tan puppies.Several years ago Irene Weltz received a tearful call from Alice Davis, a breeding associate, saying Oh, you are going to be mad as one pup has a lot of white. When Irene saw the baby she realized that was a parti-color. Delighted with the beautiful color on a nice Pom, Irene began plans to show and breed some part-color Poms. The first parti-color, a bitch, finished her championship in the spring of 1977. This parti-colors mother is orange and her father was cream.Irene eagerly told me of her efforts and plans. Well, we repeated the breeding and we got a male, but he is not show quality and is big and poorly marked ... I have a full litter sister to the champion but she is orange . . . I own the champions grandmother a light orange and grandfather a sable. Bred the grandmother to sires cream son and she just had one and it was a parti, but too small to survive ...

VOA IHO, CanadaWhen I was the owner of only one or two dogs, I was always teaching them tricks and showing them off to visitors. Now I have more, I stall 'show them off to visitors, but now I have more dogs I find just keeping them trained, groomed, fed, and pooper-scooped takes my time. However, I recently bought a male that has the most endearing tricks and I express my amazement to his previous owner, and his breeder. How does one teach a male to stop in the midst of his activities of preparing a female for breeding, to jump fast and give the assistant a juicy Mss Or to stop occasionally during his actual mating efforts, to bark cutely a few times at same assistant I love him even though I do usually have my mouth open when he gets me.I havent been able to learn anything from anyone about their methods of run cleaning procedures so I carried on this spring with my usual remedy for the 'Soil spreading hydrated lime over all exposed surfaces, and keeping all grass and weed growth clipped. Inside, the cages and runs got an extra special scrubbing with a creolin solution, and a bit of fresh paint. This with the judicial use of flea powder seems to keep my parasites under some control.I am finally going on a long hoped for vacation to England. With a side 'trip to Scotland to attend a championship show in Edinburgh, it sounds like a really doggy holiday.

Y.For Several years now, Poms have been a very big part of my life. I bought a beautiful male as a pet, as that was till I could afford. All my life Ive loved dogs and have tried to settle on one breed that I would enjoy raising and showing. I bought every book on Poms and have subscribed to the Pomeranian Review, as I want to learn everything I can about this terrific breed. My male isnt one of the best, as I didnt buy him from a Kennel but I can show him. Ive had him to several Match shows and he's done very well. He has great Spirit. Even though I know hell never be a Champion, Im having a lot of fun just being in the ring.Last year in June I decided to get a loan to buy a good Pom from a Kennel. I found a Kennel from your Review, that was close to me. I visited them and picked out a beautiful little bitch puppy, three months old. She gave me a 48 hour guarantee on the puppy, so the very next day, I visited my Veterinarian. I have always thought very highly of my Veterinarian, and know he always has given them the best of care in the past. The Veterinarian gave my puppy a clean bill of health. About one week later, I noticed her eyes running, so I had her checked again. She was given medication, but as each day went by, she became worse. I was visiting my Veterinarian at least every other day or calling. Finally I told them to keep her and run tests or do anything for her that would help. She was there four days and when I got her back she had lost almost all her weight. She was throwing up and was coughing, sneezing, runny eyes, and terribly congested and wouldnt eat. The Veterinarian thought it was upper respiratory infection. He gave her fluids and medication and told me to bring her back in about two days. She never made the next visit, as the next morning when I awoke, she was in convlusions. I knew then she was dying and didnt have a chance. I rushed her to the Veterinarian immediately, where he advised me to have her put to sleep. He said she was convulsing and was to weak to ever recover. If I had any doubts that she would have recovered, I couldnt have had her put to sleep, but she looked so helpless and beyond help, when she started crying. I thought I had done all I could and she deserved to go without any more pain.I cant explain how I felt. I had only had her for one month and she was everything I had worked for all these years, and I had grown very attached to her.I had an autopsy done and it was found that her intestines were deformed at birth and asshe grew older, it became .impossible for her to digest her food. From throwing up, she had become congested and nothing could have been done for her.I talked to the breeder, in hopes she would be kind enough to replace my loss, with another puppy, as I didn't want the money. The breeders has received a letter from my Veterinarian, explaining all the treatment my puppy had received and she told me she would try to help, but she didnt agree with my Veterinarian on putting her to sleep.I often wonder what she would have done if she had been in my place.This happened in June of 1977 and so far the breeder hasnt contacted me in any way. She had three beautiful litters at the time of my puppys death and has had several others, as I have seen her advertisements in the Pomeranian Review.I always thought good breeders stood behind their stock and as she knows how very much I wanted to get into Poms, and how very much this puppy meant to me. Why is she ignoring meI wanted a bitch to breed and show but not of great quality, just something to get me started, so I would have a chance. I paid 250.00 for this puppy.I am asking your help as to what I should do. Should I just forget the whole incident, as she said she would contact me, and as I dont want to be a pest, knowing she is busy Should I just start all over again and go to a different Kennel. I can't afford to just go out and buy another puppy, as I would have to make another loan. I guess I should have stuck to buying from personal owners. I would really appreciate any help you could give me.MRS. VIOLA MONSEN Cameron, Mo.Applause, Applause for Margaret McKee's letter in Yips Yaps in the April 1978 issue on poor legs. Ive got to let off some steam.I answered an ad in Pomeranian Review, in January 1978 issue, for a one year old male, lead broke but never trained or been in a show. I agreed to pay 500.00 for the dog.When I received the dog his legs were very bad and he limped. I took him to the veterinarian. The Doctor wrote a letter, saying that both knees were bad. also he could x-ray him to prove hip also was going out. He recommended not to use the dog as a stud.I sent the letter to the seller and asked for the money back. I shipped the dog back. Here comes the big steam let off. Went to three Iowa shows. To my surprise there was the dog in the Show. First day the judge told the handler the dog was limping. Second day86 POMERANIAN REVIEWthe judge put the dog reserve. The third show the judge put him second in open class.In order to better our breed, the judges will have to recognize the minor and major faults and disqualify the dogs before they become Champions.Answer to Lynn Allens letter in Yips Yaps in January 1978. Our first Pom was a male pet back lSVi years ago. He was our baby and only love for 13Vi years. Our next Pom was a show quality bitch at 10 weeks old and very good bloodline, as I wanted to raise and show poms.I joined Pom Clubs to learn. I read books and got to know some wonderful Pom people. I wrote letters to a lot of breeders, some answered back, nothing now, maybe later. I was unknown and a novice. Four years later I am still looking for that good Pom. I won't give up just because of the bad deal stated above. I know in the Pom World that good will outnumber the bad. Come on all good Pom breeders, lets better our breed, get your head out of the sand and lets recognize our faults and do something about it, Huh Go back and read the article on Page 46, in April 1978 issue.POSTSCRIPT TO A KENNEL VISIT Erin Hundley Lynnwood, Wash.A recent business trip took me to Maine for two weeks. I could not be so close to New Hampshire without driving over to visit Jabil Kennel, and Jessie and Barbara Young. The weather was unusually cold and windy, even though the sun was shining but inside all was warmth and welcomefrom Poms and people alike. I wish I could remember the names of all the lovely Poms I met that day who greeted me so enthusiastically. We shared a brief three hour visit before I had to leave. I wish it could have been longer.I was also able to spend the last night with our good friends Tom and Jess.ie Stephens in Halifax, Mass., before taking off from Boston, Mass, for home. The Stephens are settled happily with all their Poms in a lovely home next to a small park and a lake. Tom is busy converting a sun porch into a kennel and also building fences and dog runs. Jessie, when not grooming and training her Poms, works hard raising a tiny wild rabbit which she found abandoned in her garden. She dipped sugar cookies in cream and he the rabbit munched them right out of her hand. He was still so small she could hold him in one hand. He was probably about the size of a four day old Pom. She also fed me well.Thanks to the Youngs and the Stephens for entertaining me so well when I was far from home.GAYLE GRIFFIN Amity, OregonI have been away from the Show Ring for the last three years, but recently have started showing a girl which is doing very well. Seeing new Poms and new breeders, I have also seen a few cases of The proper rear trim as written in the Pomeranian Standard. If ths is what the breeders want fine, but why only a couple Poms trimmed correctlyIn no way would I trim a show Pom so the anus was sticking out like a sore thumb. If the breeders dont want this trim, then why arent they changing the Standard Im waiting for the day the rings will be full of huge coated Poms, with their anuses staring us in the face.Lets hear the opinion of some of the other breeders, and lets get the trim at the base of the tail and leave the anus covered.Editors Note We feel sure our Correspondent knows that none of our former breed standards mentioned ANY rear-end trimming at all. When the standard was revised in 1971, members felt that trimming of straggling hairs, for neatness and sanitary reasons, should be permitted around the anus. This was neyer intended to result in the very unattractive overtrimming to which you so strenously object Trimming at the base of the tail was purposely NOT PERMITTED, because of the equally unattractive amount of overtrimming then quite usual in that area many tails were shaved all the way around the base like a Poodles sometimes the thinning shears used heavily on the Poms back UNDER the tail to make it lie flat. In the East, at least, overtrimming is still very much in evidence, with skirts breechings blatantly chopped off and coats sheared away from the tail base to hopefully make the Pom look shorter. We would like to think that all exhibitors tried to be careful in their trimming efforts, to conform with the standard Trimming FOR NEATNESS ONLY and not to alter or conceal the Poms conformation.

I am especially interested in the wolf sable, so will be looking for them in particular. I will let you know about it after my return.POMERANIAN REVIEW 87THE POMERANIAN STUD DOGby Pauline B. HughesReprinted from July, 1971, IssueThe Pomeranian Stud dog should have a productive life of from ten months to twelve years provided he is strong, healthy, well cared for and no accidents occur.Conditioning of the stud begins before the puppy is born' and should involve a dam of a good bloodline, show type with very few faults and in the ideal four to five pounds category. She should also be in the pink of condition and have a normal season. She should be bred to a champion from a top producing line of show dogs. The sire should be strong in any weak points found in the dam. No dogs are without faults. I prefer the sire to be under four pounds.The bitch should be fed a rich well balanced diet with the extra pre-natal vitamins required, and whelp easily.Our future stud from this litter should be allowed to grow with other puppies rough-house, romp, and play. His expressions of sex impulses should never never be restricted. Many males have refused to service bitches because they were scolded as puppies for expressing this natural impulse. The puppy in addition must learn to associate with people and be accustomed to handling, cuddling, and playing. Any growling or biting must be stopped at the first sign. It could be cute to have a pup bite, growl and act fierce but as an adult Pom it is something else. Dogs persist in actions that were approved when they were puppies. Leach breaking and show training should be started even as young as six weeks and should be continued throughout his early months.The average Pomeranian male will be ready for service sometime after nine months. A few will show little interest until they are sixteen months. Any stud that matures later than that age is probably best sold as a pet because it is to the best interest of a breed to havevirility as a part of the genetic makeup.The first service of the young male should be carefully planned. Ideally the bitch should be quiet and experienced and the mating done in familiar surroundings. If the male knows the female it is even better. This bitch should be held and a firm footing provided for the dog. An old rug can be folded for him at the height needed. If the first try is satisfactory then it may be repeated after 36 hours. DO NOT use the male more than these two times if you want him to have a long productive life. It is recommended that he not be used for several weeks afterwards and only rarely until he is over a year old. Inasmuch as a popular stud will be used on bitches of many sizes it is necessary for him to accept help. If you are a novice, then get tips from some breeder of wide experience.Occassionaly a male will refuse to try to breed a female is anyone is looking. The only resource in this case is to have a very cooperative female and then once they are tied, sneak up and hold the bitch petting and reassuring the male during the copulation. It is too dangerous to leave the dogs to their own devices in our breed. The bitch can easily injure the male if she is exuberant he smaller. Then too, without a visible tie how can one even tell that sperm was deposited in the vaginal passage Generally after a couple of breedings the male will be willing to breed any female, and with assistance.The stud should be used wisely and not too often. Sperm is said to remain motile in the female for 36 to 48 hours so it is a waste of the male to repeat the breeding before the third day. Two services are enough one is often all that is needed. More brings on the danger of a litter with both premature and over-due puppies and all of the problems that are present in that situation.The male should be kept quiet after a service for at least an hour. Check by all means to be sure that no hair is in 'Continued on Page 9088 POMERANIAN REVIEWMAY MORNING POMERANIANSWe send our sincere sympathy to Thelma and Jim Dunn on the loss of their First Champion Dunns Little Tina Preshus.This lovely bright red girl was the dam of champions and was a much loved and pampered house pet as well as top brood.Tina was out of their Foundation Bitch May Morning Sweet Mary Ann, a Bing daughter, bred hack to her grandsire Ch.

The irritation could easily cause a serious infection.Fairness to outside hitches and their owners should he of primary ooncem to the owner of a stud. The sperm count of an overworked male will drop to the point where there is little chance of a pregnancy taking place. The owner of the bitch has the right to know how often the male has been used in the week preceding the prospective service.If I were shipping and paying a price for the service of a top dog, I would not want him used at all in 'that week or at the most only once. If two females seem to be due for service at the same time, often arrangements can be made to give only a single service to each, and the experienced breeder can often tell which one to breed a day early and which a day late. It takes 36 to 48 hours for the sperm count to build up after a service, longer if the animal is weak sick or run-down.Exercise, nutrition wisely balanced, love and good care are essential to keep the stud in the pink of condition, so that he can pass on his quality to many future Pomeranians.Complete outcross Adonis has Twelve Champion kids finished so far. Nine were complete outcrosses. One was father- daughter, two remotely related. It needs to be added that in every case the dam of those champions was an excellent bitch from a very good bloodline.L mINBREEDINGInbreeding is essential to establish a prepotent type. It is fraught with problems lethal genes, sterility, fewer puppies in a litter, and decrease in the size of the puppies. It is not to be recommended for the beginner. He is apt to give up in discouragement. Our breed with such tiny litters does not allow us the system used generally in inbreeding -that of saving the few good ones in the litter and culling the rest What rest Two puppies and are they the good ones or the cullsCh. Adonis top producer was the result of breeding two Poms both from small parents very much alike, each strong tho where the other was weak.v. - .5POMERANIAN REVIEW 91INDEX TO ADVERTISERSPageALVERS PEDIGREE SERVICE ________________________ ___________________ 27DARRELL OLGA BAKER ___________________________________________ ___ 66RUTH L.
