By the time you read this, the Summer Specialty, hosted by the Pomeranian Club of Greater Phoenix, will be upon us. The Phoenix Club has put much hard work into this endeavor. We hope that you will help to make it a success by attending and enjoying. We look forward to meeting you there.I am happy to report that Fred Bassett, Dorothy Bonner and Jessie Young will make up the committee to work with AKC in developing a slidetape program on the Pomeranian. We are grateful to Jessie for chairing this important undertaking. The Committee will be aided by Derial Jackson and Bob Goodrich, who have agreed to help with the history of the breed and allow us the use of their extensive photo collections of old Poms. As work progresses, the Committee will undoubtedly be getting in touch with many of you for photos of or photo sessions with your Poms. Please help them to make this a complete, successful presentation that will help educate breeders, judges and newcomers alike on our breed for years to come.The By-Laws Committee also has a new Chairman, Larry Combs, who has had considerable experience with parliamentary procedure. We are fortunate to have someone with Larrys expertise in the Club. If you have suggestions for the By-Laws Committee, please send them to Larry at 715 East 9th, El Dorado, AR 71730.Elsewhere in this issue you will read details for plans for a Craft Boutique to be held at the February Specialty, provided we can get enough support for it from the membership. ALL proceeds will be donatedto a group yet to be designated, to benefit our breed, as an addition to the Clubs yearly contribution. To be successful, we need help from all of you. Please read the details and do what you can to help support this project. This is something we can all contribute to in one way or another and in doing so, help our breed.By the time this appears in print, the Nominating Committee for the 1983 Club Officers and Board will already be at work. Committee members are Molly Miller, Chairman, Judy Blocker and Erin Hundley. Alternates are Rosalind Goltz and Margaret McKee. You can help make their job easier and at the same time help get some fresh faces and ideas on the Board. Although the Committee members represent different areas of the country, there are bound to be some very capable people who are unknown to them. If you would like to serve as an Officer or Board member in 1983, or it you know someone you think would do a good job in any of the positions, let Molly know. The Committees work must be completed before the end of October, so dont delay in contacting Molly. Her address is P.O. Box 717, League City, TX 77573, and her phone number is 713 332-1847.I have received many comments from breeders lamenting the lack of exchange of information in Yips Yaps. Only you can correct this situation. You may have experienced a strange problem and been puzzled at how to solve it. Only by letting other know of it will someone be able to come forward with an answer. We can learn so much from each other but it does take some effort to do so.On the same note, I was disappointed to learn that one of our columnists, after repeatedly pleading for information from breeders and exhibitors in her area, as a last resort sent out self-addressed, stamped envelopes and had NO replies. The Review needs your help to be a complete and interesting magazine. We are in need of articles written by Pom breeders and fanciers, now more than ever. Please keep in mind that our new editor is being paid to assemble the magazine, not to dig for articles on Pomeranians. The Review will be what we make it.Continued on p. 5.POMERANIAN REVIEWCOVER STORYDear Friends,It is with great pleasure that we present our BIS Ch. Anwins Lil Sirius as the October cover dog. Truly a Pom Fanciers dream, we are quite proud of him, so please pardon us while we relate his story.In April 1981, we regretfully said farewell to our BIS Ch. Dendys Miracle Boy. Our friend Marlene Scott Halsey told us at that time of Sye, who she felt could fill the gap in our stud force. He was shown by Maynard Wood for his breeder Mrs. L.L. Winslow and finished quickly. Upon the death of Mrs. Winslow, Maynard allowed us to purchase Sye. We were anxious to continue our Great Elms linebreeding and since he was of predominantly Models line, we felt he would be a correct addition.Just to show the local breeders our new addition, we entered Sye in a couple of shows close to home. Lo and behold, he went Best of Breed at both of them over Best in Show and group winning competition owner handled We even placed a respectable 3rd in a nice Toy Group.Due to job responsibilities, Sye wasnt shown for a while but stayed home and matured. Now after 24 shows, his record stands at 22 Breeds, 6 Group ls, 14 other Group placements 2nds and 3rds, no 4ths, and a Best in Show. Shown only sparingly by his handler Marlene Scott Halsey, we are tickled pink with his record.Syes value as a producer is just now being proven with several litters on the ground including 5 litters out of daughters of BIS Ch. Dendys Miracle Boy. These are truly the prettiest little girls we have ever produced. Look for them in the ring next summer. Around mid-Octoberj a few will be for sale to show homes.Sye is truly a joy to watch and meets the standard one to one. His head is outstanding his showmanship smashing. More than one judge has taken a second look because of his sound as a rock movement. Truly a beautiful Pomeranian.We wish to say a special thank you to friends Margaret McKee, Maynard Wood and Bob Goodrich for their encouragement and sense of sportsmanship.

Whatever your talent, we need itFor a number of years now, the American Pomeranian Club has donated 200 per year to a scientific, educational or charitable organization. Some of the groups who have received donations from the Club have been the American Dog Owners Association, the Cornell University School of Veterinary Medicine for parvo research and the University of Pennsylvania reproduction studies.This year, we would like to significantly increase the amount of money donated by holding a Craft Boutique at the February Specialty. In order to do this, we need help from the entire membership. We need your donations of craft items to sell. Everybody can do something. Maybe you can bake up a storm the items do not have to be doggy-related, just appealing to buyersIf the materials you use are simply too expensive to be donated outright to the Club, let us know how much you would have to have for each item and what you would recommend we sell it for. We will gladly take items on consignment perhaps you know a dog supply dealer who would be willing to let us have some items wholesale on consignment or, preferably, who has a big heart and would be willing to donate a few items for a good cause.In order to make the Boutique a reality, we need a lot of help and a lot of items to sell. We intend to ask permission of the other Specialties held in the hotel to put up a sign at each one advertising the Boutique, so we can reasonably expect a good attendance, but in order to offer a variety of items that will appeal to every taste, we need a great many contributions from all of you. We also need someone to take charge of gathering and pricing the items and getting them to New York, and we will need a few people to man the booth at the Specialty. If you would like to chair this project, please contact the President immediately. In the meantime, please write or call the President to let her know what items you plan to donate, how many, price, etc.We will announce in the January issu the specific group that the money will b donated to. Remember, ALL proceeds wi be added to the Clubs yearly donation. I you have a group in mind that you woul like to see the money go to, drop a note t the Corresponding Secretary and give him brief outline of the work the group does One under current consideration specialize in reproductive studies. This includes worl on hypothyroidism, hormone imbalance that can cause many problems such a resorption, infertility, pyometra, etc. If yot have ever experienced the heartbreak anc frustration of a lovely new champion Iosinj all his hair due to hypothyroidism or special girl repeatedly failing to conceive o repeatedly resorbing her litter or perhap having abnormal seasons that prevent breeding at all, you will appreciate the worl that can be done in this area. Helping tc resolve problems such as these or in othej areas that are equally worthy, in even i small way, is certainly time and money wel spent and we just may provide the fund that will make the difference.And it will be fun Lets all get busy or this project and do all we can to support it. To discuss donations or volunteer to work, please contact Roberta Massey, 1015 Fairway Farms, Kingwood, TX 77339. 713358-2775.AMERICANPOMERANIAN CLUB, INC.This club is devoted to encouraging the owning, breeding and exhibiting of the Pomeranian dog and the protection anc advancement of the breed.We are currently offering membership tc all who are interested in these principle and aims.If you are interested in joining the Club, please contact the Secretary, or if you onl wish to subscribe to the Review contact the Circulation Manager. Address on pag 3, Review.10 POMERANIAN REVIEWA VISIT TO BEV-NOR KENNELSby Skip PiazzaBeverly Norris purchased her first Pomeranian, Ch. Thelduns Almond Fudge, on September 10, 1975. Two weeks later she purchased her first female. Beverly had just these two Poms for two years. Then she produced four champions and was off and running. The next Pom Beverly purchased was Ch. Tom-Cins Tarzanna of Lennis. Tarzanna was all Great Elms breeding and instantly became the love of Bevs live. It was a grave tragedy for the Norriss when Tarzanna, who was a special housepet along with Fudge, died recently. Watching Tarzanna every day, Beverly became enchanted with the Great Elms bloodline. Ch. Tarzanna produced only two puppies in her lifetime, but they were knockouts who did their mom proud. They were Ch. Bev-Nors Tarzan who won two Bests in Show and Am. Can. Ch. Bev-Nors Sadie Ray who won Toy Groups in both Canada and the U.S. Beverlys next purchase was Bev-Nors Sweet and Sassy,iUcsnfBev and three special girls. From the left are Bev-Nors Desiree, Punkie, Bev-Nors Sweet N Sassy, Baby 2 Top Producing Toy Dam and 1 Top Producing Pom Dam for 1982, and Edneys Itzy Mitzy Delight, Delight.Baby. Baby, not wanting to let Tarzanna outdo her, produced Ch. Bev-Nors Toasted Fudge number one Pomeranian for 1981 with fifteen Bests in show, Ch. Bev-Nors Almond Fudge Best n Show at nine months of age, Ch. Bev-Nors Fudge Ripple a Toy Group winner who is also proving himself to be ijuite a producer at Bev-Nor as well as forothers, Ch. Bev-Nors Fudge Fancy Pants, Ch. Bev-Nors Mstofy Elegant Lady, and Bev-Nors Fudge Delight, who has eight points toward her championship. Baby is also Great Elms breeding a Ch. Tar Baby daughter. Beverly bred Baby into the Showstopper line by breeding her to Champion Thelduns Almond Fudge. The above champions speak for how beautifully this cross of Great Elms and Showstopper goes together. These dogs are soundness personified and lovely specimens of the breed. Beverly is now working with Karen Holder and me on a BonnerShowstopper cross. She is very anxious to see how this works and so are we. 1 often laugh and accuse Beverly of having a Midas touch as everything she touches turns out terrific.tBev and Bill Norris with Ch. Thelduns Almond Fudge at nine years 2 Top Producing Sire for 1982.Actually it is careful planning and lots and lots of study. Beverly has practically memorized everything in print about Pomeranians.Old Fudge Ch. Thelduns Almond Fudge is now nine years old and producing better than ever. When one goes to visit Bev and Bill, he is greeted by Fudge at the front door and if you spend the night Fudge is disgruntled when you take his favorite sleeping spot on the couch yes, Fudge still jumps up and down off all the furniture.Bev-Nor is but a very small kennel with only six females and three males and Bev11 POMERANIAN REVIEWproduces very few puppies each year. Bev-Nor Kennels is very proud to have produced three Best in Show dogs, five Toy Group winners, two Canadian champions, two Bermudan champions and one Venezuelan champion. Beverly has finished sixteen homebred champions, with several others almost finished. Bev-Nors Ho-Lea Delight only needs a major to finish while her litter sister, Ch. Bev-Nors Ho-Lea Terra, finished as a puppy and is a Toy Group winner as well.Bev and Bill have been married for nineteen years. They have one son, Billy, who is a great help to Beverly with the puppies. Bev gives Billy the credit for bringing out the personality in all her puppies. Billie plays with puppies patiently and lovingly by the hour. He leaves the cleanup detail to mom, but Bev doesnt mind. Beverly carefully brushes each Pom every day and keeps everything scrubbed to perfection. Bev-Nor Pomeranians have a lovely facility right in Beverlys home each one is spoiled rotten and I can think of few only-kid-Poms who have such a good life.Billy with two Bev-Nor puppies.Babies are raised and socialized in the built-in area in the middle of everything in the house. Bev-Nor puppies get lots of attention from everyone and there is a constant parade of friends and relatives through the Norris house as there is always an extra plate, a big smile and a friendly ear and lots and lots of Pomeranian conversation. Beverly has one entire wall of her kitchen covered with show wins and she now has to rotate pictures because she just cant put all the pictures on the wall.Bev and Poms in the kennel. Above is one end c the big room where the Poms live, and below the other end...^P Beverlysparents live in Pasadena as wel and stop by often. Bevs mom Pom-sits ot the rare occasion that Bev and Bill do gc away from home overnight.Beverly gives much credit for her succes to Ruth Beam and the Great Elms dogs whc have helped her to establish her foundatior and her Bev-Nor type and bloodline.Beverly and Bill are party people whc love to have a good time. However, Beverlj always gives top priority to babies anc mommas. Beverly did not know until the last minute whether or not she was going tc get to go to New York this year as it al depended on whether or not Delight was a mommie by then and settled. As luck would have it, all was okay by the day of the Specialty and Bev and Bill were able to gc to New York and see Toastie win the Specialty. A visit to Bev-Nor Pomeranians would not be complete without mentioning Ed Jenner and Susie Fisher. Ed Jenner purchased Ch. Bev-Nors Toasted Fudge and Susie Fisher has been his exclusive handler. Toastie is always treated with the best of care. Susie once told me that he2 POMERANIAN REVIEWven has a bronze crate which Ed has provided for him to sleep in. Toastie was ast years Specialty winner and Group 2 he next day at the Garden. This was a errific thrill for Bev and Bill to watch.3h. Bev-Nors Toasted Fudge is pictured vinning the 1982 APC Specialty in New York inder judge Miss Jane Ablett.There is never a dull moment with Bev rnd Bill. Beverly is very talented in many ireas she drew the blue prints and ompletely designed her house which is inergy efficient as well as beautiful. Beverly joes to auctions and is a champ at picking jp bargains. She really has an eye for things with potential. Bill has become interested in estoring an older Corvette. He and several yf his friends who are also interested in Dlder Corvettes get together for weekly allies. Bill is an active member of a softball earn and Beverly supports the team with ots of moral support and cheers. Billy is on t softball team as well and let me tell you, hat Billie plays the meanest video game mu have ever seen. When he discovered hat his mom was practicing up during the lay while he was in school, he started liding the cassettes. Beverly is threatening o buy her own cassettesSev-Nors Sexy Susie Iittermate to Ch. ev-Nors Toasted Fudge.This is a fun-loving family of humans and Pomeranians. When you are in Pasadena, Maryland, call and you will be greeted with warm smiles and great company from the humans and wags and pats from the Pomeranians. I always know I am welcome at the Norriss any hour of the day or night and I can always count on Bev to have cooked more than a dozen people could eat in a week. I can also always count on not leaving when I had planned because such good company is tough to give up.f v-13 nNorriss home in Pasadena, MD and Bills Corvette.KENNEL VISIT ELIGIBILITYTo be eligible for a Kennel Visit, an individual must first be a member of the American Pomeranian Club, Inc., for at least five years and must have bred at least one champion.

Everything roceeded smoothly as Doug Bayham of Dallas passed judgement on 11 Sweepstakes intries and found his Best in Sweepstakes in irika Moureau and Kathy Flanakins idorable little orange male, Tomboys Pico Dhico. Best of Opposite in Sweeps went to iunrays Golden Charmandi, owned by Brenda Pierson.The regular classes were judged by Mrs. lacqueline Klein from Silver Springs, NY, a loted Pom breeder Silver Meadows Cennel. She chose as her Best of Breed, 2h. Jolly Wee Macho of Moonrock, o-owned by Sue Goddard and Mrs. Randall Freeh. Best of Opposite Sex was von by Ch. Wests Sugar Bear, owned by lean West. Winners Dog and Best of dinners was won by the Bred by Exhibitor Dog, Texicans High N Mighty, bred and twned by Erika Moureau. Reserve Winners Dog was Wagners Royal Sun of Cynray, twned by Cindy and Ray Miller. Winners 3itch went to the Bred by Exhibitor bitch, Tellez Simply Cinnamon Star, bred and twned by Tony Tellez. Reserve Winners 3itch was Tim Sues Charlies Angel, twned by Tim and Sue Goddard.The show was followed by a dinner ittended by many members and guests. To tap off the evening, the Combined specialty Clubs hosted a country western lance at the Astro-Hall. We think judge Jackie and her husband, Ron enjoyed their isit to Houston, which even included an tvening at Gilleys of Urban Cowboy Fame. Jackie and Ron seemed genuinely surprised and pleased with our Texas lospitality. We hope they will both plan mother trip back as honorary TexansOur club has voted to hold a Spring Specialty in 1983 in conjunction with the March Texas circuit. This will give the exhibitors the opportunity for two Pom Specialties and hopefully more majors luring this circuit.Another big undertaking for our club is a Futurity, scheduled to begin with August1982 litters now being nominated for a competition to be held early in 1984. This is open to all Pom breeders and detailed information can be obtained from Olga Baker, 207 Shirleen Dr., Seabrook, TX 77586. Futurities are held by other dog clubs and are similar to those held for race horses. It could be profitably to the winners as well as an event to plan toward with your promising puppies.Members boasting new champions finished at our recent Astro-Hall shows were Texicans High N Mighty, owned by Erika Moureau. He won his points entirely from the Bred by Exhibitor class and finished one day after his first birthday.Jolly Wee Chatty Cathy made her owner, Roxie Campbell very happy with her finishing four point major. Tony Tellezs Winners Bitch at the specialty added another major and needs only one point to finish for proud new owners, Dave and Bobbie Gibson. There are several others quite near their titles.Many of us are making plans to attend the APC Summer Specialty being held in Arizona, looking forward to giving Sweepstakes Judge, Olga Baker, fellow club member, a difficult choice. Hope to see you there-Ch. Jolly Wee Macho of Moonrock, bred by Mrs. Randall M.

That may sound silly but since I am not yet familiar with Pom names and pedigrees, I am finding it a real struggle deciphering so many different handwritings. It is stated that ALL COPY MUSTBE TYPED OR PRINTED CLEARLY, but not everyone complies. When I do get typed copy, it frequently has not been proofed and I have seen some names spelled two and three different ways in one ad You may say, Call if you have questions, but if I called everyone whose copy was confusing, Id do little else. PLEASE, double check your ad copy.Many advertisers are happy to let me do my own thing as far as their layout is concerned. If you want your ads done a certain way Ill be happy to comply, but if your requests demand too much extra artwork you may be charged accordingly.In an effort to make Pomeranian Review the best it can be, your help will be appreciated.Thank you.2 POMERANIAN REVIEWHELPFUL HINTSby Margaret R. McKee 7660 Idlewyld Road Richmond, VA 23225WARNING There are fads in foods, fashions, and unfortunately, in medical care. Remember when every child got his tonsils out The current fad in veterinary treatment seems to be cortisone. Generally it is prescribed for limping and skin ailments. But cortisone is not a cure. It only masks the problem, relieving pain and itching, but not the cause of the symptoms. And it can have serious side effects. Lorinda Vasuta of Akron, Ohio had a horrendous experience with excessive cortisone. It was administered for an itchy skin condition. Later, the dog became very lethargic, had little appetite, and lost all his coat. It was discovered that the cortisone overdose had caused the adrenal glands to cease to function. The dog has responded well to months of treatment, the adrenals are working again, and the coat is growing back. But what a shame that Lorinda and her dog had to go through this experience. Whenever your vet prescribes any medicine, ask him what it is, what it will to do the dog, whether there are side effects or alternatives.What may seem to be a great hint to me may be an old familiar practice to you. For example, I thought everyone knew about Sevin, but apparently not. If you use flea powder on your dog, you probably buy it at a pet shop or at shows and pay 2.00 for 5 oz. The basic ingredient in most flea powders is a compound called Sevin. If you go to the garden department of a discount department store, or your feed store, you can buy 4 pounds of Sevin powder for 2.00-2.50 It comes in a bag. Then get a flour shaker or large salt shaker from the kitchen department to put it in. Look at all the money you saved the equivalent of two entry feesDid you know that artificial colors in dog food can affect the color of your dogs coat My source for this is Michael Fox. If you have a white, cream, or parti-color Pom, you might want to read the ingredients label and avoid artificial colors.I save the plastic bags my grocery store provides to put produce or frozen foods in. They have numerous uses. I carry one in my left hand when I clean up the yard and empty the pooper-scooper into it. A quick knot and into the garbage can go my problems. At shows, I attach one to the outside of the exercise pen for a litter bag. They are also handy for packing shoes into a suitcase.I have a really neat gadget called a Sudsy Sue available from Miles Kimball, Osh Kosh, WI for less than 2. It is a 9 plastic bottle with a screw-on cap that is a nylon bristle brush. It is intended to be filled with soapy water for washing dishes. It is great for a swipe at dishes and pots before putting them in the dishwasher. However, I have a second one that I couldnt do without. Into it I put one-third cup white vinegar and a few drops of liquid dish detergent, then fill to the top with water. I use it to dab at puppy accidents on the carpet. Very handyPat Forst mixes goats milk half and half with water, then adds baby rice cereal kind of thick. She feeds this to pups from a regular baby bottle with a cross-cut nipple. She says they take it just fine and it doesnt go up their noses. How old are these pups, Pat They must be pretty good size if you can get a human-size nipple in their mouths.From Vilma Louis in WA I recently read in our local newspaper that an excellent solution for dehydration had been found and was being used in India. Plain old molasses and water has replaced intravenous feeding. Having a 3 month old, 1 Vi pound Pom boy who suddenly decided to become hypoglycemic, I tried molasses instead of the usual honey in an emergency and found it worked just great. Apparently molasses contains salts and minerals lacking in honey and helps retain body fluids. My pup loves to lick it from my fingertip. Dont feed more than half a teaspoon or it may cause diarrhea. Remember, honey carries botulism spores and has caused deaths in human infants.POMERANIAN REVIEW 3Anodors Pomeranian ^'-s Am. Con. Ch.

She writes that at the Gaines Eastern Regional Obedience competition in College Park, MD the end of May this year, she and Mary Vickers cheered to the point of tears, for Lennis Red Denim Levi and Tammy Carrell who turned in an absolutely gorgeous performance on the first day with scores of 198 and 198.5. Tammy and Levi, who are from Roanoke, VA plan on attending the Gaines Classic competition. Now, Margaret also has some exciting good news of her own. Her Penny, Idlewyld Har Pendant, finished her CD this spring in three straight shows Raleigh KC, Fayetteville KC and Dog Owners TC of Lynchburg. Penny, incidentally, already has seven conformation points. Also, her Gem, Ch. Idlewyld Gemstone, finished his CDX this July in fine style third and fourth legs each with 195.5. His wins included a first, a second, and a tie for second Margaret informs us that more show quality and champion Poms are showing up now in obedience rings. Wonderful Margaret is also training her Gem and Tiara in Utility and her Ch. Pooh Bear in Novice. She has already put eight obedience titles on six Poms and is rapidly coming up with the ninth.A sad note comes from Ruth Potts of Niles, Michigan, whose beloved Tawny, Dukes Tawny Oberon, was put to rest. This dear and beautiful little dog did very well in conformation and easily won his CD title. The whole family, including all of the other Poms miss him very much. Our sincere sympathy to you. Tawny was 12 years old. Ruths daughter Lori is busy training her Candy for Utility and Ruth is training one of Candys pups for Novice.Helpful Hints, cont. from p. 32.Most books and many breeders suggest that Poms and little children are not a good combination. Generally I agree. Over the phone, I recommend to inquirers about Poms that another breed be considered for children under 6 years of age. However, I have violated this prescription by raising three kids with Poms, and it has worked out well.Of course there are problems. Young children must be supervised whenever they are around the dogs. There should be clear rules, firmly enforced. Never pick up and carry a dog. Sit down and let it come to you. Do not open a cage without permission. Dont disturb a dog while it is eating. Dont run near dogs lest you trip over one. No grabbing, tail-pulling, or kicking. Dont let the in-season bitch loose.There are rules for the Poms as well. No growling or snapping. If you dont like something, run away. No mounting the kid. Dont come in the door unless youre invited.More problems are caused by visiting children. Many do not know how to behave around dogs. I once had a child pick up and throw a Pom Ch. Trinket was uninjured, thank goodness Several children have been absolutely terrified of the wee beasties. It is the responsibility of the host child to make the rules plain to visitors, but adult supervision is still necessary with the under-seven set.Dogs tend to steal kids toys. If its on the floor, its mine. You have to be sure they dont get something that could hurt them. I never buy Nerf foam toys as the dogs shred them but dont consume them. The beasties do love crayons, and happily eat any they find. Crayons are non-toxic to kids and dogs. So I can have color-coded stoolsBut there are numerous advantages for both the Poms and the children. My puppies are thoroughly socialized. From the day they are born they are accustomed to lots of noise of different kinds voices of different pitch and tone various size people humans wearing strange costumes, masks, or hats and being handled frequently. One of my favorite snapshots is Helpful Hints, cont. on p. 55.POMERANIAN REVIEWIDLEWYLE POMERANIANS proudly presentsGEMa7k ^dlewpld ^QjemstoneMay Morning Social Lion x Golden Tiara Dambeastie CDXOur first homebred, Gem finished his championship on April 8, 1978 when Merrill Cohen awarded him a 4-pt. major.

CraryA horse breeder once told me, A good nare gives more than half to her foal. This was a knowledgeable man, a long-time iuccessful breeder. I started to object 'enetically the inheritance gift must be half. No, he went on to say, At the instant hat the egg is fertilized, they have each iven one half, stud and mare. But from hat point on it is the mares own healthy Dody that nourishes that newly created life. At the instant of fertilization that organism required its total potential. From then on ealization of that potential will be up to he dam.This is as true for the brood bitch as it is tor the mare. Man, the breeder of record, vill assume the responsibility only at some ime after the actual birth, and if that responsibility MUST be taken very early in he young life, it is very possible that no matter how diligent the care, it shall never provide what could have been derived from i healthy, temperamentally sound dam providing from her own body the perfect diet, warmth and security.The creation of a fine brood bitch must begin generations before the day she first whelps. Not only must she come from stock notable for beauty of form and movement, stability of temperament ideal for her breed, but there should be also behind her generations of dams and granddams who whelped easily, normally, and who nourished their litters without assistance, who never slackened their attention to the cleanliness and safety of their broods.Laziness and weakness in the whelping box, enough to make the surgical birth, Caesarian section, necessary, and irresponsible maternal attitudes seem to be inherited. A bitch puppy whelped naturally in peaceful, comfortable surroundings, given the proper care by her dam from the first anxious lick, seems also to be programmed for performance of the same duties when her turn comes.Modern veterinary medicine coupled with the know how of the experienced breeder have today made it possible to save many a pup, even many a litter that would a few decades past never have lived tomaturity. This becomes a mixed blessing for it enables us to preserve the constitutionally inferior animal and from it propagate a weakened strain. The medical skills that can save the strong pup from epidemic viral disease and accidental post-natal injury are far too often employed to preserve a life that nature has marked as inadequate for continuance of the race. That body beautiful brought precariously into this world and maintained here solely through human effort and against natures will to eliminate the weak may well survive to pass many essential weaknesses throughout subsequent generations.Trust a good bitch. If she has six strong wiggling greedy beasties filled with the unlimited urge to survive, fighting for their nourishment, thriving, dont be upset about that seventh one that she has shoved off into a cool corner to expire. If she has been handling her personal affairs up to this point suitably, assume she knows something you dont know. Let that one go. And that littlest one who cant seem to hang onto a tit let it go Many a tiny one is as unbudgeable as is the biggest in the litter. Vigor and ability to survive is unallied with size, large or small.Long ago in the eager altruistic early days of my dog breeding experience it was a matter of pride to save them all. And many a time 1 was successful. One little female that I remember especially had to be fed minute quantities of food every 2 hours. Because she had thus become very dear to my heart as a result of our battle together, I gave her to a very good home. Within four months she had succumbed to the worst all-over case of red mange I have ever seen while her siblings grew fat and hairy, she grew bald and scarred. I recommended euthanasia but her owners persisted in the most time-consuming care. At the age of 2Zi years after finally achieving an orderly estral cycle, she kicked the mite and haired out almost completely except for a few areas permanently scarred as a result of secondary bacterial infections. Very much against my advice they bred her.POMERANIAN REVIEW 3Slow, difficult labor produced two pups and a C-section the remaining four, of which one was dead, another dying. Massive infections followed and ultimately one pup survived. A few months later the bitch did finally have to be euthanised because of almost complete paralysis from back trouble. Full and half sisters of this same bitch, out of the same dam, bitches vigorous and strong from birth on are the best whelpers, the strongest, fiercest, most infection-resistant members of my kennel gang. With less detail, I will say that something like this did have to happen more than once before I became a believer. Now when someone mentions a lot of trouble with a litter, I ask questions about the bitchs family and make a mental note to follow the reproductive career of the survivors. Far too often is the sad story repeated in varying forms.The inherent weaknesses having to do with reproductive capacity express themselves differently in the male. The undescended testicle is one thing the low or nonexistent sperm count another. The breed as a whole is luckier than the individual proud owner when a terrific performer in the ring fails to reproduce himself. It suffers sorely when the constitutionally inadequate male that has been kept alive at all cost and raised to maturity because of his famous parentage and sheer external beauty does succeed in reproducing himself prodigiously. We didnt want to lose the bloodline, may be the excuse. If that bloodline is essentially sturdy, this weakling will not honor it, and if not, then chances are that this line is one that nature, if left to her own devices, would have cancelled some generations earlier.There is a bonus benefit. Inherent constitutional vigor carries with it in both the male and the female the ability to resist infection, disease and even severe parasitical infestation. The animal will flesh out and grow glossy coated with only a good maintenance diet, not requiring a superfluity of dietary supplements as it is able to extract the maximum available in the food ingested. It will adjust readily to extremes of heat and cold, thus it will require less artificial heating and cooling in the kennel. This in turn reduces chances of illness from Continued on p. 40.FOTO FUN by Barb LindenGetting a really good photo of you really good dog can sometimes be mucl more difficult a task than it seems.

Jackie will also be judging the Houston Pom Specialty July 29th, which is definitely an honor to any breeder. Also finishing another champion on the East Coast is Diane Johnson. She finished her male Ch. Silva Lade the Enforcer. Congratulations, Diane, thats very nice.Parvo VirusParvo Virus seems to be the dreaded killer of the 1980s. We have taken every precaution and have never come in contact with it, but in the breeding aspect, the vaccine against Parvo has definitely been a problem, not only with me but also with other breeders throughout the country. I bred 6 females, of which 5 were repeats. I had never had any problems whatsoever with any of these females but out of 6 litters I had 3 c-sections and only one puppy. I had problems with all my other litters too premature, deformed puppies, etc. As breeders, I guess you could say with trying to protect our dogs, were damned if we do and damned if we dont. I have seen absolutely no effect of the Parvo vaccine on male dogs. Hopefully, there will be a serum to combat this virus which will not affect our breedings.September 18th we will have our first fun match and we are all very excited. We will have people from as far away as Ohio. Marlene Scott Halsey will judge the regular classes and after they have been completed, we will have another contest. It will give us a chance to bring out our brood bitches aswell as champions to be evaluated on the best headpiece, best rear, best front, smallest ears, shortest body, etc. We think it will be a lot of fun for all. We will report the results in the next issue as everyone is looking forward to this event. We feel sure there have been more champions finished on the East Coast but they havent been reported as of now. We dont like to report on our own dogs, but Ch. Bev-Nors Toasted Fudge has now accumulated a total of 16 Best in Shows, and also Toastys dad, Ch. Thelduns Almond Fudge has another champion son, Ch. Bev-Nors Fudge Candyman.

Box 717 League City, TX 77573seeking to add. Remember, you must live with the whole dog, not just his lovely color or tiny ears For example, I recently heard a breeder say, If I could not have in my Poms, I would not breed them. The quality that she mentioned is not a requirement of the standard. Although thousands of Poms finish without this quality, and many breeders do not even want it, this breeder knows that she must have it, and anyone from whom she buys a Pom must know it.It is often the casual comment that a person makes, as if assuming all will agree, that shocks me. I had a judge recently frighten me with a casual statement. After a large four point entry, I was left alone with him to wait for the photographer. His opening comment was, There certainly were a surprising number of bad fronts here today. I was caught off guard and did not know how to respond, for the entry, in my opinion, had been a nice one that day and I had no intention of running it down. My rejoiner was, I have always been much more worried about rears than fronts in this breed. It was then that he stunned me for he dismissed this with a shrug and said, Oh, Pom rears are bad all over the country, and he continued to talk about fronts. Well, I want to talk about rears. It is the rear that gives a dog his propulsion. Please consider the rear when you select which dogs will remain in your breeding program. If, as this judge stated, rears are a problem all over the country, one can not avoid it by breeding to line Great Rears every few generations. Every breeder must continually select for good rears no matter what in-breeding or out-breeding program he is following. Please be careful. I have a dream of some day hearing a judge say, I always enjoy judging Poms because they are such sound little dogs.Speaking of selection, I think breeders need to be aware of how much selection we practice. This is of course what develops bloodlines. But we must be honest with ourselves and realize that there are some things that we can not accept even to get the qualities that we need. When seeking to buy a dog to add to a breeding program, always remember to tell the breeder which characteristics you must have, in addition to the ones that you aresic I recently had a puppy confuse and worry me and its mother. At about a week a bitch puppy, the only puppy in the litter, began to cry as if in pain. It was not the sickly fading puppy cry, but a loud demanding cry. When she was not crying she looked good, but she could exhaust herself if left to cry. Thinking that perhaps the mothers milk did not completely agree with her, friendly bacteria was added to the mothers food and that baby was supplemented with it. She continued to cry. If we picked her up, however, and firmly patted and rubbed her stomach we could, after a few minutes, stop her crying. We then medicated the puppy and then the mother. It took about a week and during that period Linda and I patted that puppy countless times. During the trouble, the puppy remained fat and continued to grow. She is now five weeks old and has had no more trouble. I do not know if we cured something or if she outgrew something. I am telling you of the experience because I am certain that the puppy would have died of exhaustion if we had not quieted her dozens of times a day. I write of this to say dont give up. Keep working with those puppies.I want to close this column by giving you a recipe that my Poms love and yours will too. It comes from Dorothy Williamson who has Brussels Griffons. It appeared in the Griff magazine as a recipe for ring bait. Its two big advantages are that it does not require careful refrigeration and it does not cause digestive upsets, even if eaten in large quantities. It is taste tested on my dogs. They all love it, but I do not use it as ring bait as mine tend to chew it, and while I think they are cute chewing, judges are not looking for cute.Continued on p. 48.POMERANIAN REVIEW 4 Two Starlite Bred 81 PuppiesGayle L.

Always glad to see Pom folks.Coy Poms lost their first homebred champion in May, Ch. Coys Petticoat Princess, Tammy. Tammy would have been 14 in October. Their spirits were considerably brightened a few days later when they received word from Chris and John Heartz in Canada that their Coys Lucky Eight had completed his Canadian championship. Lucky is a cobby little black and is endowed with that special spark of showmanship which is so very vital. Following his return home, he promptly picked up 8 points on the Florida shows. Lucky was shown, for the most part, by Eleanor Miller.I had a rather interesting experience. I have a little Pom almost 6 years old who has never conceived, although she has been bred many times to different studs. This time I decided she simply must have puppies so went the hormone shot route, which we have never done before. The vet gave no assurance that it would work, but said if it did, it would be from the breeding after the last shot. This was hard to believe as that breeding took place on the 17th day after color, having been bred at intervals three times before that. Sure enough, she did conceive and it was from the last breeding. She free whelped one dead female puppy. Im sure the shots were not responsible for the puppy being dead it just happens. Really cant be sure if it was the shots that caused her to conceive or the fact that she was bred that late. Perhaps she is one who should be bred late.After about 17 years in Poms, we experienced our first tonsillectomy yesterday. Couldnt believe how well it went could not tell anything had happened to her and she hasnt refused a bite of food since.I think the Carolina circuit was a big surprise to everyone this year since all the shows were majors. Do not have the full information on the Greenville show on July 29, but can report that Anne Riddicks little male, Cedarwoods Image of Diamond finished his championship with a 3 point major. Entered as a special two days later in Charlotte, he took the Breed and Group 2. On July 30, it was Coys Lucky Eight as Winners Dog for a 4 point major, leaving this little fellow lacking only one major to gain his title. Winners Bitch and Best of Winners to Bel-Meis Princess Dawn, owned by Patricia Melton of Georgia, with Breed going to her Ch. Golden Glow Peter Pan. Following this show at Spartanburg, SC came Asheville in which Great Elms Snooty Hooty, owned by Harry Pennington of Atlanta took the major with Best of Breed to finish. Winners Bitch went to Lorwood Foxy Lady of Lennis, owned by Margaret Sampels of Matthews, NC. The following day in Charlotte a 4 point major went to Mar-Lens Toby D of Browns as Winners Dog. Toby is owned by Marguerite Hohmann of Louisville, KY and this win put a big CH in front of his name.

All this stands my dogs in good stead when they must go to obedience class or to shows. They readily adapt to new situations. When we give demonstrations at nursing homes or for childrens groups, they arent spooked by wheelchairs or crutches. They tolerate being held awkwardly by arthritic fingers or being passed around by tiny eager hands. When a little nose comes near theirs, they simply kiss it.The kids are a big help to me with the dogs. They can let them in and out of the house, feed them when Im sick, take one in the ring if Im showing more than one. Five-year-old Elaine plays steward and judge for me when Im praticing ring procedure, calling commands like a pro. Children playing nearby are superb distractions while obedience training.For the children, theyve learned a greater appreciation of all Gods creatures. They love dogs and, for the most part know how to behave around them. Elaine still thinks ALL dogs love her, so must be watched around strange dogs. Im one of those who believes strongly that most children under the age of ten do not belong at dog shows unless they are carefully supervised. They are a menace to themselves and others. If you must take your kids with you to shows, hire one of those nice, responsible teenagers who show in Junior Showmanship to watch your children while you are grooming and in the ring.Frequently children in a doggy household become interested in some aspect of the dog sport as a hobby. Exhibiting in conformation, obedience, or Junior Showmanship is a wonderful way to learn patience, responsibility, poise, and good sportsmanship. They learn that before the fun and glamor of a win, there must be hard work, practice, and not-so-glamorous things like scooping and grooming. If your child is interested in showing, offer him encouragement and support, but dont push him into it if it really doesnt appeal to him.No kids in your home to get all these grand benefits Ill be glad to rent you minePOMERANIAN REVIEW 5YIPS YAPSJANET HEFFINGTON Saline, MINo to LysolJust received my copy of Pom Review courtesy of Babe Stranahan and her darling Poms which have become my fuzzy God-children.Margaret McKee of Virginia had an excellent article about preparing for a whelping especially about your choosing andor changing a vet. However, I must stop a moment and share the dangers of Lysol with those not already familiar with it.Although the quantities are minute, it does contain Phenylphenol which is lethal to cats and often causes potentially lethal convulsions via respiratory arrest in puppies and young dogs. Ever notice the sneezing spasms of a dog right after Lysol is sprayed Weve used it for years, nay decades, but no more since last year we had a Sammy puppy convulse severely, crash into walls and fall into a seizure. Only one incident was too many for us. Its back to good old Clorox solution if it was good enough to stave off Parvo all these years, I feel and vets do, too that its effective enough for anything Granted, its easier to pop-a-top and spray than to get into a sloppy pan of smelly water and scrub an area, but it sure beats watching a puppy go into a seizure. We wont even discuss the agony if one were to be lost.While Im yapping, Id like to add a heartwarm thanx to some super Pom-people who have been a tremendous credit to your breed and a source of much needed assistance to Babe and I recently Rebecca Mixon of Georgia and Ron Feyh of Columbus, OH. Your Club should be proud of breederfanciers of their calibre of concern, honesty and genuine love of their dogs and each ones welfare. These two and their integrity helped us without knowing it to overcome some serious setbacks weve endured for lack of integrity on the part of others. I sincerely hope other newcomers to Poms can meet and enjoy either one of these two. Anyone would be richer for it.INDEX TO ADVERTISERSBeam, Ruth Great Elms........................24Brettwood Arts....................................... 24Brown, Wilma J.
