MAYES 1574 Camp Linden Road West Chester, PA 19380 215-793-1912Roberta has put together another fine issue of the Review. Although the April issue went in the mail a little late, I think we should all be proud that our American Pomeranian Club can send such an interesting and excellent quality publication to all licensed Pom judges as well as the regular members and subscribers. Thank you, Roberta.Three cheers for Sally Baugniet Her article on the SIZE of show specimens should give us all much food for thought. Please try to follow her excellent advice to break the vicious circle of exhibitors showing only their smaller Poms because judges only seem to put up the little ones which may be because only the under five- pounders are taken into the ring.We have seen the quality of the Yorkies go down, down, down as the breeders show mostly their tiny, toy-type animals. Of necessity, larger bitches are kept for breeding. Do we want this in our breed To have a champion bitch able to free whelp a litter and to appear on the pedigree of future champions this surely should be among the achievable goals for Pom breeders.I. personally, was very glad to see the Code of Ethics reprinted. All members have signed it, most abide by it most of the time. We have had some complaints from time to time, many of which originated through misunderstanding rather than a deliberate failure to abide by the Code. Breeders are reminded of No. 6. allowing a 48-hour period for purchasers to have their Pom checked by THEIR OWN veterinarian.I would also like to talk a little bit about No. 9. "I will price my puppies within the breed range. There was a time when this paragraph applied to more UNDERSELLING than to OVERPRICING. This is no longer the case. Anyone can with some diligence buy a pet quality, AKC registered German Shepherd for 75, but to the best of myknowledge, 75 Pomeranians are a thing of the past. This is good.Poms have been in the limelight in recent vears several have been campaigned to Top Tov status and many have achieved Group I and Best in Show wins. Again, good Although we certainly dont want our breed to be in the top 4-5 most popular breeds, with all the problems resulting, neither do we want to sink way down the list to the seldom seen. But lets face it. Very few of ANY breed can make it to the very top, and there is bound to be a fairly big gap in quality between the Best in Show Poms and the pets. If we continue to increase prices for our Pet Quality Poms, we will soon price ourselves out of the market as far as the average pet buyer is concerned. Make no mistake, it is John Q. Public buying his cherished pet who will mark the success or failure of our breed to maintain its present position as a desirable and affordable Toy breed.A Top Show Prospect is worth a lot of monev. Experienced breeders can usually evaluate their puppies very well by the time thev are ready to be sold. Those which look like Future Champions are usually held until they are old enough for the early promise to be realized. But there are a few examples of either kennel-blindness or just plain greed which have been much talked about in our area in the past year. It seems to me that very, very few puppies less than six months old should be sold for a four figure price as Show Prospects. Some of these "Show Prospects can certainly be finished especially if campaigned by one of the top Pom handlers. But several of these high-priced puppies have barely managed to finish, and once finished, have disappeared from the scene completely. Meanwhile, the breeders who sold them at too voung an age for full evaluation to be made are the subject of some very scornful remarksSo, Breeders, please be more careful in your evaluations. If the puppy looks great at three months, keep him until he is old enough for you to be SURE of quality. Cherish your good reputations. It costs very little to feed and maintain a Pomeranian for a few extra months.Now about those pets. Pet prices will vary considerably from one area to another, so no exact figures can possibly be given. But when breeders DOUBLE and TRIPLE the usual pet prices for their own area in sellingPOMERANIAN REVIEWtheir pets, I feel that something is not quite right. Why should their PETS be worth so much more than the pets of other local breeders To paraphrase Gertrude Stein, "A Pet is a Pet is a Pet. To be sure, all are not created equal, quality among pets will vary, but I question why Breeder A should charge TWICE AS MUCH as Breeder B for a Pet Pom which might well be inferior to the lower-priced animal. Again, cherish your reputations. With some, it is "Here today, gone tomorrow, and five years from now the Pomeranian fancy will not even remember the names of some of these "Get Rich Quick breeders.To change the subject With the increase in dues ana Review subscriptions, our Clubis once more operating in the black.

As a tiny pup, he stunned us with his attitude, his correctness and his extraordinary look Years of doing this had, however, seasoned us to watch, hope and be prepared sometimes for not-so-happy outcomes, for one reason or another. This time it just didnt happen-NOTHING went afoul and Ivan developed in every respect to be just what we planned him to be.Gingerly, we hauled him to New York with us in February, at six months of age, and watched him perform for both the Sweeps judge. Nadine Hersil, and the Class judge, Michelle Billings, like a super-star. This was the biggie-wow NATIONAL SPECIALTY and he did everything right again Such a KID, too Barely six months old.From there, second dog show Best of Winners big major, tough competition-- from Puppy Class always.Third clog show Again Best of Winners.Fourth dog show Best of Breed over four really FINE Specials, some top winners, and GROUP FIRST We countecf FIVE Best in Show dogs in THAT Group.Still a little thunderstruck, we flew out to West Texas shows three shows in three days, where Ivan finished Championship ateight months of age, from Puppy Class still, and also won BACK-TO-BACK GROUP FIRSTS INCREDIBLE Three Bests oi Breed-three Group FirstsHis Bests of Breed have in every case been over multi-Special Poms, which adds the excitement and value. We add that, in spite of encouragement from EVERYONE, we refrained from showing Ivan pas1 championship points required and earned, in spite of his potential Group and Best in Show possibilities, due to our most vehement policy of NOT EVER TAKING POINTS FROM ANOTHER DOG WHEN YOU DONT NEED THEM Some years ago we did the same thing when Champion Corns Duke Dragonfly completed championship-withdrew his exhibition when we were secure in number of points for championship. Weve never been sorry and we are crusaders for that philosophy and consider it wholesome and ethical.Ivan is winning, expecting litters and pleasing us completely. He is bred as a tremendous composite of DUKE DRAGONFLY bloodlines see pedigree in "Behind the New Champions and he reflects the planning. We sincerely hope that Ivan will continue to be wnat the judges, the Pomeranian world and the BAKERS want him to be.THE NEXT AVAILABLE COVER IS JANUARYPOMERANIAN REVIEWCH.

MayesThe Collier Kennel, owned and operated by Lula Mae and Royal Collier, is located just a few miles north of a small, industrious town named New Braunfels and is only about thirty miles from San Antonio, Texas. Although Lu is a native Texan, she didnt get to live in Texas very much after she married Royal because he was a career Air Force man. As is usually the case, the Air Force transferred them all over the World. Their last overseas assignment was in 1952 1953 in England, after which Royal came back to the States to retire. They settled only briefly in San Marcos, Texas, until 1955, but Royal got a Civil Service job with the Air Force at Plattsburgh Air Force Base so they moved to Plattsburgh, Pa. Thev lived in Plattsburgh until 1969 when Roval retired again, this time from Civil Service, and they made the move to their present location.It wasnt until 1953 that Lu became the owner of a Pomeranian and that was just by chance. Her daughter purchased a male Pom for a pet from Gladys Schoenberg Aristic Kennels in the summer of 1953, but had to leave it with Lu when she went off to school. They knew absolutely nothing about the breed at that time, but Lu now thinks that he could have been shown. He was a very nice size with a short, cobby bodv and a lovely coat. However, when they moved from San Marcos to Plattsburgh in 1955. their daughter, who was then living in Dallas, Texas, kept the dog. It was then that they decided they couldnt do without a Pom.n - w. ,rI m.. t s Penny Sue-Sue Golden Mist relaxes in the house.On a visit back to Dallas in 1956, Lu decided to get a bitch from Jewel Ellis Shady Grove Kennels in Grand Prairie, Texas. This bitch was Red Rosette of Shady Grove and was the foundation bitch of Lus kennel. They took her back to Plattsburgh and in 1957 her first litter of Poms was produced. It was only one male, Rosettes Golden Sunday, sired by Golden Sheik of Gavtime who was the get from Ch. Little Tims Sunburst and Dixielands Gold Sallie.From that time on, Lu and Royal were hooked on Poms and on each trip back to Texas they purchased another Pom to take back with them. On one trip, they bought from Gladys Schoenberg a bred bitch who became the Grand Dam of Lus very first champion. Am. Can. Ch. Colliers Golden Beri.Until 1957, Lu and Royal had never been to a dog show. They went to their first show, as spectators, at Lake Placid, N.Y., and to their first show as exhibitors at the Mohawk Valley Kennel Club, which was a Fun Match. Lu exhibited Golden Tina Marie and won her first show ribbons. Of course, after this they were also hooked on shows, and since they couldnt bear to part with the puppies they raised, a Pom kennel was born. During the period of time they lived in Plattsburgh, Pa., they maintained about twenty Poms in the kennel.tvLu with Poms in motor home-1-r Ch. Colliers Golden Dream On, Colliers Golden Charlene and Penny Sue-Sue Golden MistPOMERANIAN REVIEW 1'While living in Plattsburgh and exhibiting dogs, Lu became acquainted with many members of the American Pomeranian Club exhibiting in the area. Among those were Edna Girardot, Ina Kniffin, Joy and Mary Brewster, Francis and Mary Casey, Rex and Betty Bell, Bunny Sweet and many others.Their first home-bred champion, Am. Can. Ch. Colliers Golden Beri was finished in thirteen shows. He got a Group placing from the classes at one show and won a Tov Group in a Canadian show. Beri was sired by Wistful Scamp and his dam was Golden Tina Marie. Scamp was Aristic bred on both sides of his pedigree. Beri also took a Best in Match at Glens Fall, N.Y., under Judge Joseph Rowe. In. 1969, before returning to live in Texas, they also finished Golden Tammy Sue for a Canadian championship.Before returning to settle down in New Braunfels, Texas, they reduced the kennel down to thirteen Poms. However, Royal had gotten interested in Shetland Sheepdogs so there were also four Shelties to take care of. Roval had shown some of them in Obedience and earned a C.D. on one of the males. They purchased two acres of land near New Braunfels, which also had a mobile home, a big 2-car garage and a good water well. Royal converted the garage into a kennel and also constructed the outside dog runs. Since they first moved there, they have purchased a huge new mobile home, one of the double-width types. It is so elegantly furnished you really have a hard time convincing yourself that you are in a mobile home. The home and the kennel are situated under a grove of big trees and look so cool and inviting on a hot summer day.Immi. i r c.'.vKennel runs and edge of kennel building.In 1970, Lu learned quite a lot abou animal care when she worked as an assistan to a local veterinarian in New Braunfels, Dr Franklin Kriewaldt. This experience has helped her a great deal in raising and carint for her own dogs. She got on-the-joE training in just about everything including surgery.They didnt start showing in Texas untii about 1971 and had to start making new Pom friends because they didnt know many Pom people in Texas.In 1972 they purchased Maykens Misty Morn and Maykens Sun Cricket, two very nice bitches, from the Mayken Pom Kennel Kenneth and Edith Rose Mayes in San Antonio, Texas. Lu exhibited Sun Cricket in the Texas Shows and finished her for her II.S. championship and later for her International championship. Sun Cricket was one of three champion bitches finished from the same litter Aristic Pepper Pods Gorgeous x Holders Sun Crystal.l .ftkLu with a lapful of gi Granny Sun Cricket in friris, including ront.Since they started showing Poms in Texas, Lu has gotten some very nice wins at some very important shows, including a Best of Winners at the Houston Pom Specialty in 1978 and a Winners Bitch, also at the Houston Pom Specialty, in 1979. Colliers Golden Charlene Am. Can. Ch. Colliers Golden Beri x Am. Int. Ch. Maykens Sun Cricket was pointed in 1979 and was sold to another Texas exhibitor. I almost forgot to mention that in 1978 Lu finished Ch. Colliers Golden Linus, a grandson of Am. Can. Ch. Colliers Golden Beri. She also pointed Colliers Golden Angel and sold her to an exhibitor in Dallas.At the present time, they are showing a20 POMERANIAN REVIEWbeautiful male who is just nine months old Mav Morning Ali-Echo x Am.

Most of our lembers and subscribers are amiliar with Bobs name and his 'oms, as he has been a regular supporter f the Review through his ads. For those ass familiar with him, we would like to let ou know that Bob has been breeding Poms or thirty years and has been a member of he Club for about twenty-five years.He started his "Model kennel with omwin and Great Elms stock, later adding he Thelcolynn line for color. He has bred bout twenty-eight champions, his favoriteprobably"ModeFbeing Ch. Models Magic Timstopper, a nice red boy. His most well-known dog was probably Ch. Models Son of Fun, who appears on many pedigrees. Son of Fun was also a Best in Show and Specialty winner, having won a N.Y. Specialty and one at the Western Pomeranian Club in Chicago. In addition he had 15 Group wins to his credit.When asked about how he feels about the Poms seen in the ring now. Bob was most enthusiastic, believing that not only has quality improved lately but showmanship as well, which he tends to believe is due to more Poms being worked in Obedience as well as in the Breed ring.POMERANIAN REVIEWINTRODUCING MY RECENT CHAMPIONS..........

In these flalionarv times it is even more difficult to ntinue breeding. The cost of everything is dog food, veterinary care, show penses and equipment along with the aring cosl of shipping our beloved girls to bred to "Mr. Spectacular. There seems be no end in sight.More and more we hear of rather routine ceding taking place, with too many girls mg bred to "Mr. Plain Pockets simply scause he is conveniently located and it ves the cost of shipping. Not enough lought is given to appearance let alone rdigree. All too often the results are more Plain Pockets" to add to the already tragic I over-population problem.Think. Breeders-it is expensive to raise a Iter properly. Also it takes a lot out of a Ich to carry and nurse a litter. Sometimes section is involved more expense whichlimits the number of litters a bitch can have in the future.Rather than breeding to the nearest or first available male, why not wail-breed fewer litters if necessary while saving for the shipping fee to send your girl to "Mr. Right. Through the Stud Register and the ads found in the Review the right stud for your girl can be found. Make your breedings count. Registration statistics bear out the fact that our breed is not going to fade out of existence if fewer mediocre Poms are bred. In the long run you will be better off as an individual breeder as you see improvement in your stock as the result of a controlled breeding program. The breed will cerlainlv be better off as fewer mediocre specimens are likely to result from more carefully planned breedings.Are YOU making the most of your breedingsThe follo wing article was published in the newsletter of the IVest Highland White Terrier Club o f treater Washington.

You will remember that I told you that these shows had the largest entry ever in any Canadian shows, and many of the top-winning dogs were exhibited, so the breeder-owner of the Best of all has every reason for special pride. The Pom who was awarded this "diamond and I use the term correctly in both usages of the word was Millamors Rock Montegram, bred by Eleanor W. Miller, and handled by Barbara Humphries. Belated congratulations from myselfI am certainly beginning to miss the part of showing I was able to participate in when I lived in a major center and didnt have to leave until EVERYTHING was over. Of course, this meant often pushing a clean-up broom and struggling over the paper work, but now that I nave to drive home many miles that include a winding mountain pass road, I just cannot stay on the last day of a show weekend. Closing a show is a lot of work, but then too, there are those extra talk sessions that take place. And I do love to talkSince Calgary, I have only been to the shows in Edmonton, and must say that I had a great time. Not because I have such terrific show wins to report for my own dogs for one day my girl got third in a class of four.but because of the camaraderie of the exhibitors and the friendliness of all the many folk who came to see the Poms either because they had one at home, or wished they had. I think everyone there with Poms was just as excited as the owner when Janet Barrett came out of the Toy Group ring with a second place ribbon for her boy, "Pomkins General Wolf, bred by herself. I wish I could report whether the next days Best of Breed Pom. "Sunbursts Tittle Prince, shown by his breeder-owner, too. placed in the group, but as usual I had to leave earlv as it was 500 miles home. The entrv at Edmonton was twelve Poms each dav. and as this is a fairly small show it might indicate that we will have competition at all the shows in 1980. Personally, as long as mv opposition have attitudes as they did at these shows. Ill take any number.Now a question for you all to think v seriously about. Have you got a fire pit Did I ever have to get mine organized ii hurrv recently when a nearby hay fie uncut for two years, joined forces witf brisk wind and a dropped cigarette, a burst into rapid flame, with only a half m of trees and grass between my kennel a the field, I did some fast moving. By t time the thick evergreen forest surroundi the farm was afire, I had moved thirty-o dogs into a slough that is called my frc vard during the dry times of the ye Fortunately I had cages very handy as the from the show had not been stored, t more fortunately, the fire created its oi back-draught, and turned away from us a toward the mountain. A lot of the boardi dogs were tied to trees, etc., and I was gl that leashes were hanging so handy for n As it happened, I had no vehicle to ta them away in as my son had filled our or car with shovels, pails and rakes and head into the fight. One small dog, belonging the farm owners, is very glad Lance w there, for it got trapped between two are of flame and was trying desperately to c itself into a small snowbank when he foui it.In this particular instance nothing serio was lost, nothing was burned of any gre value, for the dozers did get enough tre down to prevent the fire spreading, and nc I have some cages readily available ai strong leashes right at hand, and I am al hoping that I am not alone next time. I ha lost weight this past year, but I am still ti fat to do all that runningOn the home front, since the exciteme of the fire, we have been hard at work the house as usual. The newest developme is the removal of the old roof, and the layi of plastic for now for the wind to move it pleases, and subsequently tl organization of buckets under all tl "musical spots in the house. It has taken lot of buckets, but the new roof will be soon and then I can find something else play with besides water.Obedience is going full swing, too-a who knows, maybe the Pom I am traini this vear will actually see the ring the h one never did get there. Of course, if I g too busy traveling to all the shows that a coming up, I wont have time to train, have every hope of seeing many of you the Pom Olympics in Oregon, especial those who havent come to see me yet.

TraunerThe color brown in any of its various hades or dilutions can only appear in the oat when the right combination of inherit- d genes are all present in the individual. Hack is the dominant form of the gene for iroduction of melanin pigment, and regard- ess of the coat color you will see black pig- nent in the majority of Pomeranians, where t is present in their noses, lips, eye rims, oot pads and possibly around the anus and enitals. The dog with this dominant form of he gene cannot produce brown anywhere in its body it may have a "faded nose, but his is not a true brown or liver nose and is lue to other causes.Since the initial research on color genetics vas done in the early decades of this cen- urv by Charles C. Little, the gene for black hgment has been symbolized by geneticists vith the capital letter "B. Research proved hat brown or liver pigment was produced vhen a recessive form of the SAME gene vas present in double dose. A dog with the -ecessive, or "b, form of the gene in dou- ile dose cannot produce any black pigment invwhere on its body. While its coat color may be any shade of white, cream, orange, red or brown, it will never have a black coat. If it is a sable, the sableing will be a dark brown. If it has a mask, the mask will be chocolate. And it cannot be a blue, since blue is a dilute form of black. The orange, red or cream Pom with a liver or chocolate nose, eye rims, etc., is carrying the recessive "b gene in double dose other pairs of genes located at different points along its chromosomes are causing its coat to be of a color other than some shade of brown. Such a dog. bred to another brown-nosed Pom or to one with a brown coat, will produce puppies colored like itself or the other parent. There is one exception to this the most recessive of coat colors is the black and tan, which is really more of a coat pattern than a coat color, since the pattern can appear as blue and tan or brown and tan as well as a black and tan, and the mating of any pair of Poms can produce one or more pups with the black and tan pattern if both parents pass on a gene for this pattern.We are talking about recessive genes. These can remain hidden for any number of generations, revealing themselves ONLY when a puppy inherits a pair of such genes in a genetic environment that allows thedouble dose to become apparent. Just because a puppy has inherited a double dose of the recessive "b gene does not assure it will have a brown coat for that to happen another gene must also be present. The usual orange, cream, red or sable coat of the Pom is governed by a pair of genes called the A-locus. There are four forms this gene can have. The first allows full expression of black or brown or their dilutions in the coat, and is dominant to the other three it is symbolized as "As and only one dose is necessary for the coat color to be black or brown. The second form of the A-gene prevents any black or brown from appearing in the coat most oranges and reds fall into this category. The symbol for this form is "aV. If we were to write out a formula for a brown-nosed orange Pom it would be ay-ay b - b . A black-nosed orange Pom would be ay-ayB-Bit could also beB-b.in which case it would be "carrying the recessive gene for brown and could produce a puppy with a brown nose, or a brown coat, depending on the genes the puppy inherits from the other parent.The formula for a brown-coated dog would be As - b - b. The dog MUST be carrying at least one "As form of the A-gene, but the other member of this pair could be any of the other three forms of this gene. Since there are four possibilities As-As, As-ay, As-aw, As-a. we will never know for sure what that other A-gene might be until this brown-coated dog is bred. Even then, we mav not know unless it produces a good many puppies out of an assortment of mates. To find out if the dog is As-ay, it would have to be bred to a clear orange ay- ay. To find out if it is As-aw, it would have to be bred to an orange-sable. To find out if it is AS-aL it would have to be bred to a black and tan patterned dog. We might be able to save ourselves one breeding if the orange mate or the sable mate is carrying the black and tan pattern gene, and the litter includes even one bt patterned puppy then we can know that our brown-coated dog is As-a for that pair of genes.There is one thing certain. Whenever a brown-nosed dog, or a brown-coated dog, produces, every puppy in the litter is carrying a brown gene "b regardless of the color of its nose or coat. That puppy, when it matures, will be capable ofPOMERANIAN REVIEWproducing offspring with brown noses or coats depending on the genetic contribution of its mate. The ideal mate for a brownnosed orange, cream or red would be a BLACK dog. There is a chance the black dog mav be carrying the brown gene if it is, the puppies could be as follows1 solid brown As - b - b2 solid black As - B - b3 black-nosed orange, cream, red, sable aY - ayB -b or aw - awB - b4 brown-nosed orange, cream, red, sable substitute "b for "B in the above5 black and tan or blue and tan6 brown and tan or some dilution of brown and tanSo far. we have been concerned only with the genes at just two loci locations of color genes on the chromosomes. There are important genes and their alternate forms at locations customarily symbolized as the C. I and E loci.The dominant form of each of these allows for full rich coat color their recessive forms create the various dilutions seen in Poms and other breeds. Taking the D-gene first, its recessive form "d is responsible for the dilution of black to blue also the dilution of chocolate brown or liver to beige or the so-called beaver. The Weimaraner is a BROWN dog in which the dominant "D has been replaced with the recessive "d throughout the entire breed. The same gene combination is also responsible for the color called "silver-beige in Toy and Miniature Poodles.The C-gene has at least three forms perhaps four. Each is more recessive than the one before it according to the following list "C for full rich clor "cch no effect on black, some dilution of brown dilution of red, orange, and the tan areas of the bt pattern to much lighter shades to cream or even white "ce no effect on black, dilution effect stronger than "cch this may not be a separate gene but only a stronger effect of the "cch gene due to still other factors "ca true albino, no pigment production anywhere in the body pink nose, blue eyes, ice-white coat. The lighter shades of "dead grass tan in Chesapeake Bav Retrievers are due to the actions of "cch and "ce, separately or in combination.The E-gene is more complex and has four forms. The dominant form is symbolized as "Em the "m stands for "mask and dogs possessing just one gene of this form attheir E-locus will have a non-clearing ma The mask will be black in black-nosed dc brown or chocolate in brown-nosed dc Next in order of dominance is "E, wh permits the fullest extension of color in coat. The coat of the dog which has recessive "ebr gene in double dose \ show the typical tiger-stripes of a brin coat. Like the "a1 gene black and tan p tern, the "ebr gene is basically a patt gene rather than a color controller. In a long-coated dog, it is difficult if not i possible to say with complete assurai whether an all-over sabled coat is due to 1 "aw gene for sable or the "ebr ge since both genes allow for the presence the coat of tan or orange AND either bk or chocolate. The most recessive in this s ies is indicated by the symbol "e. T gene, when present in double dose, prevei the production of black or brown in the ci and dilutes black to a dark shade of orar or red. This is the usual color-gene make- in Irish Setters and Golden Retrievers, dilution of brown is even more pronounci changing that color to orange or even ivoi From time to time, certain red or orar dogs have been known to produce a black chocolate puppy, even though bred to orange, red, cream or sable. "How can tl be, is the wondering comment, "wh everyone knows that black is dominant and neither parent shows any black in th coat.

I love to read, and I turn to books when I want to learn something. When I venture into a new area, I begin my research by reading as much as I can on the subject. Books and periodicals are goldmines of information for those eager to learn. Of course, printed matter shouldnt be your only source of information, and it does have drawbacks. Which brings me to some more personal cliches"It isnt in the book. For some reason there are important bits of information that simply arent routine, arent second nature, for the novice. For example, Ive never read a book that describes "puppy breath, that acrid odor that puppies nave from three weeks to about eight-ten weeks. All the puppies Id ever bought were too old to have it. When it developed in my first litter, I was appalled. I thought they were sick Only when I mentioned to a breeder friend that I was going to take the puppies to the vet did I get set straight. For those as green as I was, puppy breath is completely harmless and requires no treatment.Did you know that Pom babies can get hairballs, like a cat These are very dangerous and have been known to be fatal. Try to prevent this problem by thoroughly combing the dam every day. If you suspect a pup may have one-sometimes hairballs are vomited up or stools are not normal--a warm water enema will take care of it. Some breeders also give puppies the same malt preparations given to cats.'The dog hasnt read the book. The book says bitches come in season every six months. But the girls havent read the book, so Ive got two who come in season every eleven months. And there are some who are frightfully irregular. The book says during a normal season, the first day is counted when the colored or bloody discharge continues for about a week. But Ive gotten four litters from an illiterate bitch wno has never hadany colored discharge. I have to look ft swelling.So books are a good starting point ft beginners to learn, but that must 1 supplemented by talking to other breede and to your vet, and alas, by experience How much weve all had to learn the hai wayIt frequently worries me that the peop' who need this column the most-novices probably dont subscribe to the Review Who is going to tell them about it Its up 1 you and me.

HallCarbondale, Ks. 66414724 South First 913 564-7642POMERANIAN REVIEWPOM PEOPLE ARE THE NICEST PEOPLEbyKaren S. HolderA few weeks ago on a Friday evening, as I was about to fall asleep the phone rang. It was my friend, Pauline Kanipe, who lives in Virginia. Normally I am very happy to hear from Pauline but I knew the moment she said hello that something was wrong. In my stupor I thought I heard her say that the little Pom puppy I had sold to her in-laws had been lost. As soon as those words sank in I was on my feet. Pauline went on to tell me that her mother-in-law, Doris Kanipe, was in Bavlor Hospital for tests. Her father- in-law. Jim Kanipe. and their two Poms had come to Dallas to pick Doris up as the tests were complete. Jim had checked into a motel to make himself and his Poms comfortable for the evening, after visiting his wife at Bavlor. After getting settled in their room he found that they needed something hating to leave the two little Pom-girls in the strange motel room alone, all three of them Jim and the Poms piled back into the little station wagon and went to a Skaggs Albertsons a few blocks away on the eastern edge of Dallas. Jim left the girls in the car for a minute while he ran into the store. When he returned. Sandy, his six-month old puppv. was missing. He had left the windows cracked but the doors locked. He assumed that Sandy had been stolenas it turns out she had evidently slipped out when Jim got out of the car. Jim was beside himself with grief. We can all imagine the terror he must have felt. He rushed back into Skaggs after looking everywhere for her and asked the manager for help. They called the police, who responded immediately. But no Sandy- Jim finally had to call his wife to tell her the bad news. In desperation, Doris called her daughter-in-law Pauline, who in turn called me. So here sat Pauline and I talking on the phone over a thousand miles from Dallas, wondering what we could do. I do not think I have ever felt more frustrated and helpless. I suggested that perhaps we could call all the radio and television stations in Dallas, but somehow that did not seem viable it would take too much time and we probably would not get past a receptionist. There was a special worry, too, even beyond Sandywe were also terrified for Doris, as she had had a major heart attack in January when their old Pom died. That is when the Kanipes boughtSandy. Pauline and I feared that Do might have a similar reaction to losi Sandv, even though at my urging they d now have two Poms so that Doriss love w spread between the two of them.To get back to Pauline and mehere ^sat. me in Ohio, Pauline in Virginia, and this going on in Dallas. Suddenly it hit r that the Pom people in Dallas would he find Sandv. I got my directory and got touch with Gertrude Howell. Gertrui listened to mv choppy account of the whc storvabout how upset I was about Sam as well as how worried we were about Dor I was practically in tears. She calmed n and assured me that she would help. 1 drop everything she was doing to he complete strangers-me. as well as tl Kanipesis just incredible.Gertrude gave this account in a letter me the next week"After I received your call that Frid evening and you told me of the situatio this is what took place. I first called Bavb Hospital and talked to Doris Kanipe ar gave her comfort and a little strength 1 letting her know that I cared, understoc and wanted to help in any way I could, called Skaggs and learned that Jim Kanij was no longer there so I called the polii department, telling them that I was member of the Dallas-Fort Wort Pomeranian Club and that you had calle me from Ohio to ask if I could help. Tl police were glad to hear from me and toe mv name and phone number. I then si about arranging a search party. I called tw of the Pom Club members and was about 1 call a third when the operator cut init w the policeman who had taken the case. H wanted me to know that he had Sandy in h arms and was on his way over to the moti and Jim Kanipe. I told the policeman that had talked with Doris and he asked me fc Doriss phone number and room number. The policeman was unable to get through 1 Doris as the nurses told him it was too la for phone calls. I did not let that stop me- kept talking with nurses until I got the heE nurse and told her that I had a message f Doris which would do her more gooa tha any medication they could prescribe. Tl nurse relented and let me talk with Dori continued on page 693 POMERANIAN REVIEWIm -4. ALONG MYWAYbyMolly Miller P.O. Box 717 League City, Texas 77573I do not know if we are getting more iseases in the world or if our modern cience is just isolating and naming old nes. Fortunately, when a disease is ecognized, we are often offered some means f protection from it. This has been the case ecently with parvovirus and canine rucellosis.Last year parvovirus attacked American ogs in all segments of the country. As it is n air borne virus no dog was safe. Dogs ho never left their homes died as did well- aveled ones. The most frightening aspect f the disease to me was that there was no efense against it. Dogs that contracted arvovirus were given fluids to offset ehvdration caused by violent vomiting and iarrhea and antibiotics for secondary ifections, but the virus could not be ttacked. The mortality rate varied widely, ut it was particularly high in puppies.Now we are offered a vacine to prevent a ogs contracting parvovirus. The tests on te vaccine results look good. I see no ason not to use the vaccine. I am in the rocess of inoculating all of my dogs against te parvovirus. If a breeder has many dogs, e may find that the vaccine is not available i great quantities, and he may need to stage is inoculations. I am happy to report that have seen no side effects to the parvo loculations. Unlike the rabies inoculation hich often causes soreness, and the DHL loculation which often causes depression, le parvo inoculation seems to be forgotten soon as it is given.A few years ago there was a very little mine brucellosis in the United States ow, however, there are scattered cases iroughout the country. Unfortunately but nderstandably knowledge of these cases is Ften suppressed. We as breeders cannot revent the disease, and we cannot cure it, at we can avoid it. Recently a test has been sveloped that can be used by most vets to teck for the disease.Brucellosis can be transmitted by several forms of very close contact, but the major method of transmission is breeding. Here is our clue. If we breed only brucellosis-free dogs, we should be able to avoid the disease. Since a dog or bitch with brucellosis can seldom if ever produce a live or vital puppy, and such an animal can transmit the disease to any to whom it is bred, and it can live a normal life span, it is worth our efforts to avoid the disease.For over a year I have been requiring that bitches who come to my kennel to be bred come with a clear brucellosis test. I have had some stud owners say that they would not make such a reouest for fear of insulting the bitchs owner. This is not what I have found. No one has acted insulted. Most have been delighted to know that my males have been checked clear and so have the bitches that have been bred prior to theirs.Think how much safer our dogs would be if all breeding stock were checked clear of brucellosis, when I breed to a dog who is not checked clear of brucellosis, I realize that if he has it, I have lost not only the litter but the bitch and possibly those with whom she has been living. It is a frightening risk to take. For the well-being of the breed, all popular studs should be tested.Two relatively new and effective safeguards have been offered to us for our dogs. If we will use them, they will make our dogs much safer and our own peace of mind much greater.TITLE AND AUTHOR UNKNOWNThe dogs I know have many shapes For some are big and tall,And some are long And some are thin,And some are fat and small.But some are little bits of fluff And have no shape at all.Submitted byRenee and Mary StraslickaPOMERANIAN REVIEWDAZEY DID ITOur First Homebred ChampionCH.

Snohomish, WA 98290A large room, a group of people each with a dog on leash. Confusion reigns as each goes his own way. One pulls vainly on the lead to force a reluctant puppy to follow. Another pulls just as hard to keep his exhuberant Bull Terrier from eating the Yorkie beside him. Then the instructors voice rings out. "Line your dogs up over here, big dogs first, then the little ones. And order begins. Its a handling class and we all are preparing our most promising future champions for the show ring. "Stack vour dogs. Thats easier said than done, but we give it the old college try there, all set. "Okay, move them around, smile at the judge, show him you think you have the winner. "Talk to your dog. let him know what vou want, that you love him and that it is fun to show off on the end of a lead.Handling classes do give something you cant get anywhere else, a chance to train vour dog to show under all sorts of problems noise, bigger dogs and more aggressive ones, strange people and strange tables. All this is important, but nothing is as valuable to you and your dog as the experience of being with a large group of noisv. nosey dogs while you are close by to reassure him. If you consistently radiate love and confidence and security to your future champion, he will quickly learn to enjov going to the show.What to do before you start class It helps if your dog is used to going on lead. I have gone both ways and believe me. its easier if vour dog has accepted the lead as part of this game he enjoys with you. How to start Nothing can replace the early happy experience of following mamma who is tantalizing puppy with a juicy piece of liver in her hand. We cross back ana forth across the room with the liver reward each time we make it all the way. Then we put the lead on loosely and repeat the walking back and forth across the room. Never pull on the lead. I say this even though I dont always stick to it mvself. My best successes have always been with the puppies who learned tofollow happily after me before I ever started to control them with short sharp pulls. Another way to get the puppy to follow you is to put the lead on him and go to the end of it while puppv sits or stands on the floor. Now vou walk in quick little half circles, back and forth in front of him. Talk to him and he wont be able to resist chasing after you. Have the liver handy to reward him when he does, and you are your way to a lead-trained Pom.I have tried dragging a puppy behind me until he follows but he never enjoys lead work as much as much as those I was more patient with. As with any training program, consistency is most important, five minutes a dav gives better results than an hour once a week.Now. what about that puppy you bought at seven months old who has never had a lead on. I start the same way. but most older puppies are more independent and do not follow as willingly as the younger puppies do. You mav have to take another tack. I have tied the lead around his neck and let him go. Some will not move as long as the lead is on. You play with him and tease him. anything to get him moving and used to the drag of the lead. Next, tie his favorite old sock or squeaky toy on the end of the lead and let him go. He may just sit and chew his tov. but sooner or later he will get up and move around. The lead will get stuck on something-Aha He cannot move, and you are not the "Bad Guy. After a little while vou go and release him. hold his toy and coax him to follow you. If he wont, let him go and try again the next time he gets stuck. Sooner or later he will follow you of his own accord, and vou are on your way.Stack vour dog Again, start with your verv voung puppy. At least once a day, stand him up on something, a table, a chair, or even the television. Scratch him on the tummv and under the chin. Give him a treat, old friend liver. Get him comfortable when he is little and he will remember it always.After all the above fine words, I start out with a new puppy and a new problem. He will not bait. He does not like liver or cheese or training class or anything. My friend Phyllis Andrews found the answer by accident. She was brushing him and trying to get him to relax. He liked it. As she moved away from him, he followed her to get more brushing.

This paragraph on color goes on to describe the markings of the black and tan and the parti- olor. That is the extent of the description of color on a Pomeranian.There is absolutely no mention of the word "mask or a description of the sable color or where black shadings can or cannot be, thus indicating acceptance of them anywhere on i solid color, including the head and face.This is okay with me, for I happen to believe we should concentrate on improving more important things than color on a Pom. Lets get as close as we can to type and soundness then worry about what color they are when we have nothing else to worry about.That must have been the thought of the A.P.C. when this Standard was approved. Occasionally we get different interpretations from those who may or may not have a harder time finishing a color other than clear orange. Further dividing of classes will not help finish the other-than-orangecolors all must go in the ring to be judged for the points eventually. Just getting a blue ribbon does not make a Champion.There is only one thing that bothers me on color that is the last paragraph of the Standard. The paragraph on color states "ACCEPTABLE COLORS TO BE JUDGED ON AN EQUAL BASIS. The last paragraph of the Standard then proceeds to suggest dividing the Open classes into various color classifications at Specialty shows.We are trying to impress the judges AGAINST COLOR DISCRIMINATION and then proceed to discriminate by suggesting various color classes in Open.What is even worse and more confusing is that the suggested color classifications for Specialties puts Blue, Black and Brown in one Open class. Red, Orange, Cream, Sables in another Open class Qpen Any Other Allowed Color in a third class.Many all-breed clubs divide Pom classes into Open Black, Open Any Other Allowed Color. Why I certainly dont know where the all-breed color division came from It isnt in the Standard for all-breed clubs. It isnt a ruling from AKC.CONFUSION At a Specialty, for example, an orange would not be in Open AOC, but at an all-breed show it would. One who shows often habitually writes AOC for an orange Open Pom. At a Specialty it is entered in the wrong class.I have been to several Specialty shows where an orange was entered in Open AOC. This, of course, is the wrong color class for an orange at a Specialty, even though it is right for an all-breed show. A Pom entered in the wrong class should be disqualified. Sometimes they are and sometimes a judge just makes believe it didnt happen. I for one would NOT complain about it when they arent disqualified, because I believeYear Sweeps l.Dogs 2.Dogs 3.Dogs Total6-9 9-12 BBB ROCS AOC Open1974 5 4 1 15 0 161975 10 7 1 7 0 81976 16 9 1 18 0 191977 17 12 1 9 0 101978 9 17 1 19 0 201979 31 17 1 15 1 171980 9-7 7-11 2 10 0 121.Bitch 2.Bitch 3.Bitch TotalBBB ROCS AOC Open BOB2 7 2 Disq 11 1521 6 0 7 1820 11 0 11 2121 15 0 16 1722 10 0 12 2123 13 3 19 2124 8 0 12 1821.

There were three chocolates and one black in the litter Although there was one chocolate identified in my males pedigree, it was three generations back of my original black bitch ... or SIX generations behind ray male. That long-ago chocolate ancestor could only have contributed ONE chocolate gene to its progeny, yet that gene had traveled down in time, unchanged in its properties, through SIX different dogs AFTER it left the body of its original chocolate owner in one of its sperms and BEFORE it could make itself seen again in the coats of three of my black males puppies. The chocolate gene carried by the dan of this litter had been carried unseen in thi bodies of even more dogs, as we canno identify any of her ancestors in a 6-genera tion pedigree as being chocolate ... perhap one of them was a liver-nosed orange W have no way of knowing.The point 1 am trying to make here is tha a gene can remain hidden INDEFINITELY if it is a recessive and if it fails to meet u] with another of like kind. Its nature remain unchanged by its passage through the bodie of dogs in any number of generations and i will become visible again whenever it doe meet another gene of like kind providet the rest of the genetic makeup does not con ceal it in some way. This is true of EVER^ recessive gene, not just of those for color and this constant rearranging of the sam old genes is responsible for the infinite var iations among dogs of the same breed even the same line or family.Pom People continued from page 57One more phone call and I knew I coulc sleep well that nightI wanted to let Jiir know that Doris knew that Sandy was safe so that he would not worry about her al night. I called the desk clerk at the mote and left a message for Jim to call me. Just as I hung up the phone with Jim, Doris callec meher nerves a frazzle, of course, so 1 talked with her until she was calm enough to sleep.Doris did have to stay in the hospital ar extra day because of the excitement but nc harm was done. On Sunday Gertrude Howell and Linda Flechtner made the long drive to Baylor to meet their new friends, including the wayward little Sandy, face tc face. They had a nice long visit, no longei strangers. When Gertrude wrote to me she signed off with her phone number and wrote, "just in case...There is also a nameless good Samaritan in this storya man was driving along the six-lane boulevard in front of Skaggs as Sandy darted across it. He stopped, picked her up and took her to the police station...I guess that Pom people arent the only nice people. The policeman was really helpful too.within five hours little Sandy was back with her "daddy.

Fatalities from the disease were not uncommon. It seemed to spread rapidly and caused the justifiable concern of dog breeders, exhibitors and kennel owners.Drs. Leland E. Carmichael and Roy Pollock of Cornell University determined that the virus, dubbed "Parvo meaning "small, as it is one of the smallest organisms known, is similar to the feline anleukopenia distemper virus. It may ave developed as a result of a mutation of an enteric intestinal virus among other species of animals. 1The disease appears to be spread mainly by contact with feces from infected dogs it may also be shed in saliva and urine and may possibly be carried in the air. The incubation period seems to range from one to fourteen days. 2Parvovirus can take two forms, the most common being a form of enteritis, or inflammation of the intestine. Dogs of all ages seem to be susceptible to it. The first noticeable signs of the disease are depression and loss of appetite, which may go unnoticed in a large kennel. This is followed by severe vomiting and diarrhea, which is often grayish and may contain blood, due to hemorrhaging of the intestinal tract. A foul odor is often present because of the blood contained in the stool.2 The virus also invades bone marrow and destroys white blood cells, which the body normally uses to fight disease. Fever is a prominent feature of parvovirus, with temperatures often ranging from 103-107 in younger dogs.3The greatest danger from the disease is from dehydration as a result of the vomiting and diarrhea. Death may occur within two days after the symptoms begin.1 It is essential to seek veterinary care AT ONCE so that fluids may be given subcutaneously or intravenously and electrolyte balance restored. Giving fluids by mouth should notbe attempted at this compounds the problem of vomiting. Anti-diarrheal and antivomiting medications seem to be of little use in controlling symptoms.2 Since parvo is a virus it does not respond to antibiotics bu1 antibiotic therapy may help combal secondary infections resulting from the disease.The second form of the virus strikes mainly puppies and causes a myocarditis inflammation of the heart and congestive heart failure in puppies from four to twelve weeks of . age. It differs from the enteric form of the disease in that there is usually no diarrhea or vomiting, but death can be very rapid, occurring within hours or even minutes after other signs become noticeable. An affected pup will have difficulty breathing, will cry and may attempt to vomit, then become prostrate. 1 Until recently there was no vaccine to prevent parvovirus. Now available, the new vaccine, called Parvocine, is similar to the killed feline panleukopenia virus and has been proven effective in preventing the occurrence of parvo. It is recommended that initially two inoculations be given at four week intervals beginning at nine weeks of age and followed up by one booster annually. It is possible to vaccinate younger puppies but when this is done they should receive a dose of vaccine every 3-4 weeks until they are at least twelve weeks old, as their systems cannot retain a long-lasting immunity at an earlier age.In spite of vaccination it is still good practice to take steps to avoid exposure to arvo. Since feces of infected dogs seems to e the main source of contamination^ it is important to remove feces promptly and ractice good sanitary measures in kennels, t would also seem wise to avoid the use of public exercise pens at dog shows and matches, since the virus can live in feces for a period of lime after a dog has recovered from the disease.

Never did I dream that I rould be writing an article some day myself, ^ell, with so many things to do and going lack into the hospital, Roberta had to give ip writing the column for the Kenosha iounty Pomeranian club. Carol Walsh and I 'olunteered, so bear with us, we are going to lo our best to keep up with you fine writers.A few of our members are joining the Jbedience trend. Being their first ixperience with Obedience and having lampered Poms, at the beginning they were ather leery of their babies being made to isten. The first week of training convinced hem that many of us underestimate our ireed. Within the first fifteen minutes of lass the Poms realized that when you stop, mull make me sit and I will, without you laving to make me, I do want to please you. Vow they are in their fourth week of raining and are doing great. The other ireeds in class, "the best-working and high- icoring breeds are still messing up. Lets lot forget that we have a wonderful breed 3ur Club shall use our upcoming obedience Poms as demos to promote our breed in our irea.At our February meeting we discussed ways to increase our membership. We are 'oing to try to have a fun match in a shopping center in Kenosha to promote the breed. We are also trying to see if we can find a site for a "B Match.We have also decided to send for some AKC movies for the fall and winter meetings when the dog shows have slacked off. We have already selected a couple of films and dope to receive a reply from AKC on them soon.At our March meeting we again invited Dr. Passarella fron the Antioch Animal Hospital. This time Dr. Passarella brought slides and gave us a very informative talk on Parvo. Our club members quizzed him on just about every aspect there is about Parvo. Of course, as long as we had him at our meeting, we questioned him on other subjects, too, one of which is the problem of broken bones. A couple of us have now had the problem of broken bones in the lower parts of the leg that are not healing right.This is due to the lack of circulation in the lower parts of the leg and thus causes what is known as a non-union. Unfortunately it does not help anyone to have a dog with a non-union, because it never will heal right unless a plate is put in.Elinor and Luke Luccas have had bad luck with Parvo this spring. They had taken every precaution to prevent it from coming into their kennel. Still they were unfortunate. First it hit the very young puppies and then some older ones. Acting quickly, they took the sick Poms to the vet. With close-watching eyes and vaccine, they were lucky to only lose two. Thank goodness for their fast actions and for the vaccine.Congratulations to Sally Baugniet for finishing Pomrish Candys Tuffy Apple at Green Bay on April 26th with two points in Winners Bitch and Best of Winners. Also congratulations to Jackie Liddle with her Ch. Perkins in a Best of Breed and a Group Fourth. At Sheboygan on April 27th Jackies Auroras Whats Inaminit received Winners Bitch. CONGRATULATIONSPacific NW continued from page 64to get most puppies or older dogs to follow you and like it.So now you are ready for handling class. Dont be discouraged if your little friend forgets everything he knew in the new surroundings. In a very short time he will be used to the noise and confusion and will show off all your good efforts.Good luck at the shows, especially the Summer Specialty, which will be over before vou read this, but Ill be wishing you well.Parvovirus continued from page 73have the virus but show no outward signs they will pass the virus in their stools also. Shoes worn to dog shows should be disinfected, as the virus may be carried home on them. 1Parvo is probably more widespread and severe now than it was when it first appeared in 1978 but it should be kept in mind that in spile of the number of deaths attributable lo the disease most dogs who develop it will have mild cases and recover. 1POMERANIAN REVIEW rCIRCULATIONMANAGERJUDY L.

I love to iee the tinies, too, but know this isnt ilways good for the breed. What I would ike to see is the Standard changed at least or bitches ideal weight to be 5-6 lbs. I dways thought that dog shows were meant o better breeding stock and pick the ones hat are the best specimens. If a 3 lb. bitch s put up and becomes a champion what ood is she after this, shes too small for needing. In my opinion this is no better han putting up a male who has no testicles. This was my problem when I first went ooking for my bitch. I wanted a breeding itch that was show quality. There really snt one if you want a good one for information. Im not the only one who eels this way and the only hope is our ireeder-judges who realize this.JACKIE KLEINSilver Springs, N. Y.Would the membership and Board consider a change in the requirements on New Member Applications Instead of two APC members being sponsors, how about equiring only one APC member, with the tecond sponsor to be any other person who is qualified to recommend the new applicant hru association with the dog fancy such as i member of another kennel club, a breeder, i handler, a judge or an exhibitor.Im bringing this to your attention lecause of two fellow exhibitors in my area who expressed interest in becoming nembers of APC. Unfortunately, the only 'member they happen to know is meI dont believe that potential members should be kept out of our Club because here happens to be no other APC Member n their locality for them to become Dersonally acquainted with. Do YouI might add that if I had been either of hese people I would have tired of the hassle nvolved in trying to join, and decided it just wasnt worth the bother. One even had her ipplication returned for lack of one sponsor, t'et her check was retained Do we want new members, or dont weLets hear what YOU think about thisA very unusual thing happened to me this past winter which I wanted others to know about. In mid-December a Maine woman used my black and tan stud on one of her females. She was also interested in my champion black stud for use at a later date. I knew nothing about this woman except the two times she was here for the stud services. I was pleased she liked my boys.However, when my March 1980 issue of Dog World arrived, I got a great shock. As I was glancing through the classified ads. I came to one which said. "Champion black and pointed black and tan studs available. I knew absolutely nothing about this and have never advertised my Poms in Dog World. This same woman, whom I barely met twice, had advertised my boys without my knowledge in Dog World She does not even own a black or a black and tan male. Naturallv I was very upset. She told me that she thought if SHE advertised MY boys in HER ad. that Id give her some free stud service.To make a long story shorter, I am in no way connecled with this Pom breeder, even though some people think I might be because of this false ad. Hopefully, this will never happen to any of you. I couldnt believe anyone would do such a thing.We have been askedIs it better to avoid a section andrisk losing puppies oris it better to do a section andget live puppies.Is a section too big a risk to the damSend in your thoughts toYips Yaps.POMERANIAN REVIEW 79INDEX TO ADVERTISERSPageDarrell Olga Baker .....................................................................................................Cover, 5, 44Diek Sally Baugniet ................................................................................................ 31, 45, 70, 71Ruth Beam....................................................................................................................................66Rex Betty Bell............................................................................................................................23Breltwood Arls.
