Wee Heart's Bit O' Gold Dust was born, his ownerbreeder Cassandra Ready knew something exceptional was in store.Dustee sensed his destiny, and with great flare he finished his championship before reaching the age of nine months, a mighty feat indeed He has continued to perform beautifully, receiving several BOB's to date.The result of a father-daughter breeding, line-bred heavily on Sungold's Gay Cavalier, Dustee is producing nicely with our related bitches as well as being out-crossed with our Great Elms line.While relaxing at home for the summer, Dustee is keeping busy with his duties in the harem, and is producing a beautiful new coat. Watch for him to arrive on the scene again in the fall as a Special.Our thanks and gratitude go to the many people who played a role in Dustee's being here, and those who fostered his show career, helping him finish at such an early age. He flourished under the care and attention when he was in your possession.Special accolades also to the judges who saw his potential and admired his form. He obviously knew you liked him and responded. That's DusteeP.S. Special thanks to Molly Gray for hours spent taking photos of Dustee for the cover.WEE HEART'S KENNELCassandra Ready, owner-breeder P.O. Box 795 Clearwater, SC 29822 803 593-3600POMERANIAN REVIEWPRESIDENT'SMESSAGESue Goddard 19719 Rice LakeLn. Houston, TX 77084 713492-0849Several letters addressed to the Board in recent months prompt this message. It may be time for us to review the reasons we have a club. Basically our purposes, as stated in the Constitution, are to promote this our chosen breed by continually trying to upgrade the quality seen in Pomeranians, by holding shows which help us to evaluate the dogs we are producing, and to encourage area clubs. We elect Officers and Board Members to help guide the club, to coordinate our shows, to conduct our business and to hopefully represent the membership. We should not be a policing body and it is not our job to arbitrate disputes. Most of these matters must be settled by the individuals involved, or can clearly be AKC affairs regarding registrations. Additionally we have had quite a bit of correspondence regarding the color issue, most specifically the particolor Pom. From the earliest descriptions in our standard, we have listed and described the parti as an accepted color. Whether you choose to cultivate the rarer colors or not is an individual decision. Disgruntled sales will surely occur from time to time, but this is exactly why you should buy from someone you know and trust, as well as someone who understands your particular wants, if you possibly can. Even good friends discussing a dog right in front of them may perceive the dog differently, and what might be super important to one, may be of lesser importance to the other. In the final analysis you must trust in the person with whom you are dealing. We have all signed a Code of Ethics if we are APC members which states that a buyer has 48 hours to notify the breeder if a dog is unsuitable in some way and will be returned. It is, of course, so much better to go and see the dog if you can, knowing that the perfect Pomeranian has yet to be produced. Many breeders insist on this in preference to shipping on approval. In several cases wehave had complaints directed to the Boa regarding dogs that have been purchasi months and even years before. No one who human and hopefully that includes us al can predict exactly how a puppy or even pointed adult will turn out, and no one expected to give lifetime guarantees. Ai time you are dealing with a living thing, it subject to mishap and that is part of tl gamble you must be willing to take.As this is the stud issue I would like interject a purely person not Board opinio l feel very strongly that we have a club, ar are members of this club, to help each othe Probably no breed is more difficult to produi and if we can help each other, we are helpir to fulfill the obligation we have taken promote Pomeranians not just oi Pomeranians, but the breed as a whole. I a opposed to advertising a stud dog as "not public stud" unless it is an aging dog who stud services must be restricted. I also have rather negative feeling about the "to approve bitches only" stricture. Presumably anyor willing to pay the fee and other expensi shipping, vet care, etc. with a health registered bitch, is trying to do the be breeding possible to upgrade or perpetual their quality. You may be able to recommen one of your studs over another to complimei that bitch's pedigree, or in some cases to eve recommend another line because yo honestly feel that it would be a bett breeding for that dog, but to deny breedin entirely is another matter. Yes, I know the often the stud takes the brunt for any misha or poor result, but he also takes most of th credit when it is successful. Personally believe that in most cases the bitch has mor to do with the result than the dog. My da raised Quarter Horses, and I know they had saying that "a horse is only as good as hi mother." I wouldn't go that far regardin Poms, but I do think she is very important, don't feel that we can justify failing to hel our fellow breeders to improve their stock an be honestly subscribing to the stated purpose of our Constitution. Now I'll get down off m soap box. I won't have too many mor opportunities anyway.Hope to see a bunch of you in Washington.POMERANIAN REVIEWSECRETARY'S REPORTDolores A.

I should have nentioned several items in the previous issue. Ml persons needing transportation for hemselves, dogs and paraphernalia, please eel free to telephone Jean Schroll 503 55-4975, Laura Untalan 503 284-2446 or Emily 503 684-1730. We will be more than lappy to meet you at the airport and transport ou the ten minutes it takes to get you to your -notel. The motel is new, quite large and approximately 15 minutes from the show area. 3anquet reservations can be made by calling Laura. There will be large RV's on the show grounds grouped together for your convenience. This area will not only provide a welcome meeting area but also protect us from the rain or heat. Your evenings will be filled with various activities so don't plan ongetting any rest until you return homeThe premium list just arrived and how lovely it looks. The Club has a unique symbol. Being a new member I take pride in admitting they do everything quite well. Also, a sincere thanks to Laura for a job well done on our back cover ad on the April Pom Review.The last two months have been quiet here in Portland. There have been many shows going on, however, they are some distance from here and my schedule has not permitted participation. Therefore I don't have much news. With June fast approaching, my business will lessen so hopefully Laura and I can become more involved once again.How about the Premium List for Vancouver B.C. Quite impressive. How about the cost to park an RV without hook ups Quite ridiculous It's a shame that with a Worlds Fair there has to be such inflated prices. Forty dollars a day is a high price to pay for a piece of ground 12' x 37 and with the show schedule unknown, how much of the Fair could one hope to glimpse even in six daysGood luck to everyone in our Specialty. We look forward to this occasion and hope you will enjoy our beautiful state while you're here. There is much to do and see, so feel free to impose on us. We'll love it.POMERANIAN CLUB OF GREATER HOUSTON by Connie TellezSeveral of our club members are getting all excited about attending the Summer Specialty Show in Portland, OR this July. We are especially looking forward to this wonderful trip as we have never been to that part of our beautiful country. It will be our vacation and I'm sure we will be very happy about resting and meeting many Pom lovers and exhibitors in that area. I'm especially looking forward to long visits with those two very nice and special ladies, Jean Schroll and Shirley Bradley.Congratulations to all the winners in New York Sorry we couldn't come, but we heard a great time was had by all and the Poms were beautiful as always. Don't know if our club will ever be the same without two very dedicated people, Tim and Sue Goddard. They are moving to Louisiana and everyone in Houston is sad and will miss them terribly.

We Texans celebrate BIG. Y'all comeNORTHERN CALIFORNIA POMERANIAN CLUBby Ruth A. BugbeeAlthough you haven't heard from us in a while, NCPC is alive and well. As clubs are sometimes prone to do, we hit a big slump after our 25th Anniversary Specialty in February 1985. But the "never say die" group, spearheaded by the Pressers, Anne Hayden, Doris Weaver, Sandy and Paul Logan and other loyals, took some aggressive action and recruited eight new and eager members.We welcome them and take pride in introducing them to all of you in the Pom world Janet Porter from Clovis, Nancy Parker of Bethel Island, Sue Chewning and Cheri Fleming, both from Tracy, Pam and Larry Galat, Clovis and Julia and Richard Harding from Pittsburg.Chuck Reynolds, a charter member and past president, joined us in January and enjoyed meeting some of our newest members. It's always a pleasure when Chuck shares his company and knowledge with us. Ruth Dotson Sun-Dot is another old timer who has volunteered to become our award statistician this year. That's volunteering with a capital V and sets an example for all of us to follow. And it's happeningNew members are volunteering to work with older members on committees to put on our next independent specialty. Pending AKCapproval, it is planned for Thursday evening, November 20, 1986 at the Fairgrounds in Turlock, CA and leads into the 3 day Turkey Circuit. Mark your calendars now and help us build four days of majors. Dudley Roach is already hard at work on trophies which promise to be special. Trust us You'll really want to bring the dogs to vie for these lovely prizes.Although we have been hard at the work of the NCPC, we do "play" at our favorite recreation the shows. Lillian Muller has "played" with her Ch. Muller's Encore, who was the 2 special as of February 1986. He's continued his winning ways into March, taking BOB three days in a row on the Raisin Circuit. He will probably have done more by the time you read this. On the same circuit, Paul and Sandy Logan's Moonshadow's Eye of the Tiger took WDBOW for 5 points at Sequoia KC. New member, Janet Porter has done her handling and grooming homework very diligently, resulting in two 5 pointers at Sunmaid KC in March and Sacramento KC in April on her orange youngster, Moon- shadow's C Wiz Wee-Bad. Wiz now has 15 points. Another newcomer is Sue Chewning who has handled her red sable bitch, Apolloette My Joy Kneesa to a total of 5 points with a 3 point major. The third new one to make a mark is Cheri Fleming with Apolloette Charley Ann at 8 points including WBBOW for 5 points at Sacramento K.C.It's been great for all of us to share their enthusiasm and excitement. It's the next best thing to winning yourself when one of your own members brings home the bacon.Ruth Dotson has returned to showing with a bang. Her bitch Sun-Dot's 'Sho Stuff I Is got in stride as WB for 2 points at Wine Country KC on April 18 and followed through the next day Chief Solano KC as WBBOWBOS for 4 points. Lillian's Ch. Sungold's Gay Caballero took BOB at Sir Francis Drake on April 20, ably handled by Anna LaFortune, whose own Sungold's Dyn O Moe Rider received 4 points as WDBOW. Even though Anna isn't a member, she's always a welcome face when she comes north. She was a guest at a recent meeting and offered some very useful suggestions to us. Thanks, Anna.

To list, their wins could be a whole olumn in itself. Some of their achievements nclude their cute 16 month old red bitch \polloette Miss Classy Roxy, who learned her eash work one week and then turned it on to start and finish in the next week with 4 majors, ach as WBBOWBOS. She's been BOS twice as a special. Apolloette Bimbo of Starlight, a young red sable male finished a day later with a 3 point major. Ch. Apolloette Ever Ready Rocky, co-owned by Marlene with jerry Moon and Cary Ferrgus, is making headlines with breeds and group placements up in the Northwest.And then there is "old Zack," Ch. Apolloette Foolish Pleasure, who celebrated his 5th birthday in April with back to back breeds and a Croup 3 at the Salinas and Santa Cruz shows. Five BOB and 2 Croup placements since March and to think Pressers had talked of retiring him last Fall This dark sabled red is so sound and typey and sure a showman. He's really run to watch. Congratulations, Pressers.Yes, NCPC is alive and well and looking forward to seeing you at our Specialty.One final note NCPC is proud of Marlene's election to the APC Board. She's a hard worker who will serve the Pom world well.PUGET SOUND POMERANIAN CLUB by Jessie StephensWe have done it Our first "A" match is planned for May 17.The last year has been a busy one, and under the guidance of foundermember Phyllis Andrews, we have been able to show AKC we are capable of having a point show in the future. Lots of research and an excellent resume was drawn up. Getting down to business in the right way is the only way to get things accomplished. I am sure that all who knew the club in its beginning will be happy to know that we are on our way. Our own specialty in Washington State will become a reality. Thanks, Phyllis, for all the sorting out you did. I lost track, but she stepped in and put everything where it should be files, resumes, etc. Getting after us really got results. Thanks to Tom Stephens who worked so hard on the last match getting the right format on Premium lists and catalogs and to Irene Harbin who is working along with PeteCastaneda and Phyllis on this one. To our President Dana Plonkey, what could be a better birthday gift than an "A" match on the 17th Happy birthday, Dana. Everyone's input has been appreciated, no matter how little, it has gotten us there.I hear Randy Gemmel and Dana Plonkes bitch Valcopy Wakhan High Style is just looking for a major now. Congratulations to Virginia and Bernard Niehouse on winning the bitch points both days at Whitbey Island and Monroe. This homebred girl is named So Hi's Special Firefly. Irene and Sylvia Harbin's Am.

Two very familiar phrases to us all. Ve don't know now who will win the National lummer Specialty, or how much fun will be lad by all who participate, but by the time ou read this it will be history. So I ongratulate the winners, thank the workers ind praise the exhibitors in advance. Those of js who plan and work to make it memorable, j really special experience, say thank you for oming.More history in the making. A most exciting ind special event in Seattle will occur Saturday, May 17 at the Lake City Community lenter. The Puget Sound Pomeranian Club nas been approved by AKC to hold a Sanction \-OA Match. Anyone who has ever worked to organize a new dog club knows what this means years and years of hard work by truly dedicated people. The Puget Sound Pomeranian Club is full of such people. I remember them all and thank them, because through their efforts the Northwest will have its second Specialty club. The Columbia Pomeranian Club, with its hard working members, has provided the Northwest with two specialties a year, and now you will have another stage on which to present your Poms.I want to thank some special people in the Puget Sound Pomeranian Club. First, the charter members, the ones who got the idea and put it all together, especially the five who are still on the active list. The five are really more because AKC counts only households, not individuals. I'm having trouble deciding who to write about first because none is more important than another, so I'll do it alphabetically. Phyllis Andrews, who helped draft the original constitution, and her late husband Clyde, who brought a special quiet dignity to the ring. He is greatly missed. Viola and Vern Children, who never stopped loving Poms. Ray and Norma Higbee, who brought the Higbee bunch to the Jr. Handling and Obedience rings as well as the conformationring. Erin and Phil Hundley, who never wavered in their dedication to the goals set out by the original group. Virginia and Bernard Niehouse, who both always attended meetings and served on the Board, as officers and in any other way they could.Many others have joined and given their own talents to the club. The Harbins, Irene, Ralph and Sylvia, joined soon after we were organized and have always given unstintingly of themselves, keeping the enthusiasm alive when others were ready to give up. Tom and Jessie Stephens are also long-time members whose knowledge and precision have kept us on the right track. A long list of hard working members have each added their bit to this new great achievement Marjorie Bear, Katherine Bartos, Marianna Bissonnette, Pete Casteneda, The Defords, Terry Fisher, Bobbie Fraser, Ingrida Casaway, Randy Cemmill, Virginia Hall, Linda Jackson, Bob Johnson, Elsie Kurtz, Molly-Jo Larson, Julie Lindgren, Dana Plonkey, Florence Ryals, Marie and Ray Smith, and one more special member who, though far away, gave her encouragement and support generously Edna Cirardot.Many more have come and gone and will be remembered. Dr. Charles Wilson, also a charter member, died last January. The Yakima Kennel Club held their last show in his honor. Dr. Wilson was the owner of Washington's first black champion, Ch. Midnight of Point Loma. Clyde Andrews, Ralph Harbin and Robbie Higbee have gone on ahead and will be watching us from on High.Some wonderful Poms have been loved in this land of evergreens. Ch. Sungold's Rebel, the first champion offspring male of Ch. Sungold's Cay Cavalier, bred by Anna LaFortune and owned by Viola and Vern Children. Cav's last champion offspring, 66, a bitch Ch. Scotia Cav's A Tisket A Tasket, bred by Edna Cirardot and owned by Clyde and Phyllis Andrews. The Northwest's first black and tan champion, Ch. C.J.'s Isadora, bred and owned by Pete Casteneda and Bob Johnson, and of course, Dr. Wilson's Midnight, the northwest's first black champion. And so many more. Some would have finished if there had never been a Puget Sound Pomeranian Club, but most would never have been exhibited. A breed club does so much more than just hold specialties. It instructs, encourages, promotes and helps.continued on p. 67.POMERANIAN REVIEWPu.kvJk1f.Celebration at Sho-Nuf"Sire Ch.

LeuPOMERANIAN REVIEWALONGMYWAYby Molly Miller P.O. Box 717 League City, TX 77573I find myself getting into trouble when I have a preconceived idea of what will or should happen. When I expect the usual, I am not ready for the unusual and am slow in my response to it. Two such things happened recently.Most humans are subject to flattery, particularly when their attention is divided. I fell into this trap at a recent show. As I was grooming my open dog and puppy bitch, a strange woman began to admire them and ask questions. I answered with part of my mind and the other part pondered the approaching ring experience and the much-needed major. As usual the stranger said she would like to have a Pom and questioned prices. I gave her a general price range and then broke it down into show-pet-breeding categories. This did not satisfy her. She continued to admire my male and asked what he would cost. I explained to her that he was not for sale. I was planning to use him in my breeding program he just needed a few points to finish his first puppy was now in the ring. Still the stranger persisted. Restating that he was not for sale, I gave her a price range for such a dog. Suddenly the stranger's attitude was different. She stiffened and was strangely alert. The change in body posture was different enough to shock me out of my inattention. I looked at her face. There was an alert watchfulness that I had not seen before. She no longer looked casually friendly. A voice in the back of my head said, "She is going to steal this dog."I continued to groom, and the woman drifted away looking at other dogs. Occasionally I noticed her glance at me. I was very glad that I had only the two Poms with me that day so that we could all go to the ring together.Poms had an afternoon ring time. After showing, I stayed at ringside to visit with some friends and have a picture made. When I returned to my set-up, all of my Pom friendswho had been near were gone. I did not s the stranger, but I did not like the idea leaving the dogs to get the car from a remo parking area. I packed dogs and equipment my dolly and took it all to the set-up of handler friend and told her why I w concerned. She watched the dogs until returned.Perhaps I was wrong, but each seasc several dogs are stolen from shows. Usual these thefts come after a conversation th has established the dog's value to the owne if it is to be ransomed or its market value if is to be used or sold. I see two things that w can do to help protect our dogs. We exhibito can be more alert than I was and nevi establish even a general value on tf individual dogs at the show. In addition v\ can be alert to helping each other watch dog when handlers need to be absent for brie periods of time.In addition to being ready to questio strangers, a breeder must at times questio usual medical procedures. I recently had bitch whelp three puppies. The middle pupp was born dead. The vet had administere oxytocin to bring the dead puppy. The fir and third puppies were delivered easily Several hours after the whelping, the bitch' temperature rose to 104.2. I called the vet t ask what procedure he wanted to follow. Th vet was involved I asked the assistant to rela the information and my question. Thi assistant returned and said just to watch her Oxytocin sometimes caused temperatures t spike.I was worried and this did not sound right t me. I insisted that the assistant return and asl specificually which symptoms were con sidered dangerous and what temperature wa dangerous. The vet came to the phone. H said he considered 104 a fever even wher oxytocin had been given. The bitch wa placed on medication and in a few hours hei temperature was normal, and she was hei bouncy self again.I am convinced that if I had not questioned, I would have had a very sick bitch. I felt strange questioning a man whom I know is good. Perhaps this time he was distracted with other work, or perhaps the message was not relayed properly. It was acceptable for such a thing to happen to a questioning person like myself, but what if this had happened to a novice with his first bitch He could have sat continued on p. 843 POMERANIAN REVIEWTrendsetter,CJanescTs TrendsetterThe "old man" can do it too Ch.

From car line breeding to retain his genes, influence is evident today, especially conformation and coats. It was well worth . innovations practiced to secure breedings, thankfully remembered.The usual procedure was a short trip to Aristic Kennels with a Bonner girl, hopefi offered to Pepper Pod. After a quick sniff, was usually distainfully ignored. Tl kennel-mates in season were introduced, at a time, until a decided preference \ indicated. For success, this female accc pi ice had to be cooperative and non-nervi as was also the Bonner victim. A three st build was anticipated with an insuffici number of hands to maintain. So I sat on floor with knees pulled up to hold 1 accomplice on top of my Bonner girl, as hand was needed under her with the ot hand ready to be used behind the male to or lower or push. It was not easy. Tempora lowering allowed Pepper Pod to smell only Aristic girl on top, but both were lifted as mounted so that the lower layer could rece the injection while his front legs grabbed upper. Once penetration was achie resulting in a tie, pressure on the en structure could be eased, letting the Ari female down, although remaining in vicinity to maintain the illusion. Pepper F never seemed to question afterward why stranger-Pom remained there as long as continued on p.Since my association with Gladys Schoenberg was close, most of my breeding was to the Aristic studs through the early years. The outstanding prepotency of Ch. Aristic Wee Pepper Pod was realized in the late 1950's. Even with one Best in Show to his credit, he was not sensational in conformation but nice a cobby, five pound red-sable with indisputable soundness. His one fault, which had limited his get, was his stubborn preference in bitches at breeding periods. Often there were none who pleased him enough to make the effort involved, but once a breeding was accomplished the quality of the result was amazing. When these facts were discussed with Gladys, she dismissed my conclusions with the argument that her other champions produced as well and were much easier to breed. Unpopular at home, he was always available to me and I determined to find ways to use him with my girls. So Pepper Pod became my foundation stud almost exclusively during his few years of activity his prepotency unrealized by other breeders until too late. Other Aristic champions, including his son, Ch. Aristic Flaming Cherub, surpassed him in beauty, but none came near him in the quality of get. Among his Best in Show sons were Ch. Bonner's Peppersweet Red Pod his daughter, Peppersweet, bred back to him, and Ch. Bonner's Stylepepper Preshus from a Pepper Pod breeding to a granddaughter. He sired many other Bonnersr r 4'A lb.Harsh coat sires black and tan consistently.POMERANIAN REVIEWOBEDIENCE NEWSby Brenda Hutton 102 Tudor Lane Lansing, Ml 48906The first thing I would like to do is correct ne misinformation reported in the last issue the Pom Review. Those of us involved with 1986 Obedience Demonstration were der the impression that we were the first up to perform in a group obedience event the APC. We were not. Gladys Dykstra m Easthampton, NJ was the first. She and o of her friends gave such a demonstration ring the February 1976 New York Specialty, ose of you who keep your Reviews forever II find an article on it in the April 1976 issue, ge 10. If anyone still has it, I would sure predate a copy of that story. Our apologies Gladys and friends. Maybe she'll be ailable to be part of a 1987 DemoSpeaking of Gladys, did you know she's en in Obedience with Pomeranians and rzoi for many years Since 1950 I derstand she has earned in Poms alone 2 n. UD's, 3 Am. CDX's only, 1 Am. CD only, Ian. CDX's only, and 1 Can Championship ly. Also in the Borzoi she has 3 Am. UDs, 3 n. UDs, and 1 Am. Champion. That's quite record Anyone care to guess how many ousands of hours of hard work went into all ose titlesRecently we mentioned Claire Flesner and r knee surgery. She writes "I'm doing just at Can't run yet Can climb stairs and have i pain" Claire also reported on a fun match Id by the Bay Colony Pom Club. There were entries and 3 qualifying scores. Finishing st in sub-Novice was Floneybear's Megan ned by Fran Richardson with a 156165. d was Silver Meadow's Mr. Randy, owned d shown by Claire with 139165. It was indy's first time in an Obedience ring with ry limited practice because of her knee covery. He had a perfect score in the sit and wn exercises. Since it took her six years to t a qualifying score with her first OB Pom epper," because he thought the 3-minute ng down was only 214 minutes, this was lite a feat Maybe we'll see Randy during thefall season in Novice. The winner of Novice B and High Score in Match went to Smokey Jo, owned by Brandy Richardson with a 188200. Brandy is only 12 years old and Claire says works like a professional "It was a pleasure to watch her and her Pom," Claire reported. I've never even seen 7 Poms in one Obedience event until New York, and she's got them in a fun matchClaire also reports that there is a new CD Pom in the club. Evelyn Farinacci's Fahnley's Pom Pom "Jodi" finished leg 3 with a 19214 from Novice B at Holyoke KC. Interestingly, he had a run-off with another Pom Then for insurance Jodi got leg 4 at the Merrimack Valley KC with 19314200. Congratulations to Evelyn.Also from the Bay Colony Club is Jennie Martin. Condolences go out to Jennie on her recent loss of Chiper who was 12 years old. Chiper was an AmCanBda UD with many High Score in Trial awards. He once was HIT in Bermuda for a whole week of Trials I'm sure he's sadly missed.Did you make it to the Richmond Gaines shows I didn't, but sure wish I could have. Margaret McKee started the week by being featured on three local television programs before going into the Trials. She and Val were asked to show their stuff to the TV audience to give them an idea of what Obedience is all about. Then they went to Gaines scoring 17614,18414 and 190. Diane Bauman was also there with Abra scoring 199, 16914 and 19914. On Sunday Abra was "Sunday's Best," meaning that she was the High Scoring Dog for the Day. Congratulations to both Margaret and Diane, both APC members, on a job well doneJo Ellen Corley's I'm a Wee Bit Flashy has finished his CD by earning leg 3 32286 at the Ft. Worth KC with 19314, then leg 4 on 323 he got 194 at Ft. Worth DTC. Pretty consistent. Earning two legs toward their CD were Marie Smith and Surprize Echo of Manchester. Marie and Echo got leg 1 at St. Petersburg KC with 170 and leg 2 at Tampa Bay KC with a 179. Kristen Kvamme from the Columbia Pom Club has just earned a CD on Cedar Glen's Piccolo Pete. Pete received leg 1 at Sammamish KC with a 170, leg 2 at Puyallup Valley KC with 18614, and leg 3 on 22386 at Seattle KC with 187. Also earning a leg on 223 was R. Domingo with Hy Jan-Lee's Archie of Ardee in Novice B. Theirs came withPOMERANIAN REVIEW 6a 187 at OTC of Hawaii. Does anyone know anything about this pair Has Hawaii ever had an obedience titled Pomeranian Apparently R. Domingo showed a Pom for 2 legs prior to this, but no one knows if they ever received the 3rd leg.Ch. Sugar Plum Fairy, owned by APC member Roz Coltz, earned his first leg Feb. 22 with a 195 at the 1st Dog Club of Northern NJ. He then earned the second leg 223 with 195V5 at Bayshore Companion Dog Club. Good luck, Roz, as she's now working on a Dog World Award. Peppy Von I, owner unknown, earned leg 1 Feb. 22 at Monterey Bay DTC with a 178. Both these dogs were in Novice B. Lessard's Little Geisha Girl UD also received a 192 on Feb. 22 at the Monterey Trial winning the Challenge Trophy for the second time. She's slowly working on her OTCh. So far Alice Lessard reports Geisha has 6 points and counting toward the 100 points needed. Diane Bauman and Noah's Abra Ka Dabra CDX received a 2nd place from Open B 222 at 1st Dog Club of Northern NJ with a 198'A. She also won High in Trial with a 199Vi from Open B.Alice Lessard has been busy indeed this spring. Besides showing Geisha and working on the OTCh, she has now begun Novice B with Lessard's Natsu Takara, who is also 1 major away from her championship. She writes, "Natsu works far superior to Geisha and she really enjoys obedience. I entered her in the Fresno KC, Bakersfield KC and Chief Solano KC shows. At Fresno she got a 195, at Bakersfield a 197Vi, and then a very upsetting 192 at Chief Solano. Oh well, there went a 'Dog World.'" And she just reported earning a 198i at Mt. Diablo DTC, good for High Scoring Toy That's sure the way to earn a CD, isn't it AliceLast month I mentioned that I think it's hard to get a Utility title and consider each qualifying score as solid gold. Alice writes about the other side "I love to brag about my dogs, and when you asked how long it took to get a UD on Geisha, I had to laugh since that was the easiest title of all for us and the most fun. Since everyone had told me how hard it was to get a UD, I expected to be working on it forever, but with six months of training and five shows later Geisha was a Utility Dog. I would have gotten her UD in three shows, but she got confused between going out for articles and the "go outs." If I would haveknown it at the time, I would have trainee Geisha longer for perfection instead o jumping the gun and putting her in the ring si soon. Many people had told me horror storie about the Utility ring, that I wanted to get i over with in a hurry. I figured my dog wouli be ten years old still going for its third leg. Thi moral of the story is, do not listen to do people during the out-of-sight sits and down in Open B. If your dog has a good foundatioi to build upon, then each step, CD to CDX t UD should not be harder, but instead easier."BK's Sir Spunky earned his 2nd leg on hi UD in United Kennel Club on March 1 with score of 189. The second day he blew it, bu managed to redeem himself in Open B. I hat entered Open that day for fun, and darned i the monkey didn't tie for 2nd with a very nici working Sheltie and won the run-off. BK' Sunshine Supergirl also made her firs appearance in sub Novice. Being six weeks ir whelp she managed to pull a 3rd place anc 158165 to make yours truly very happy. Be looking for her as soon as she drops her litterHere's hoping your dog is always a happy heelerlPacific NW News, from p. 28.And this club has done it well.How did it finally happen I asked Phyllis Andrews what she thought was the key to AKC approval. She said, "Organization." AKC has set out guidelines and you must follow them in a clear, well documented way giving a complete resume of activities, clearly labeled and arranged in an easy to read manner a complete list of members' breeding and show records a record of club property and exactly where each item can be found and who is responsible for it the educational programs, promotional material and everything the club has done to present the breed to the world.

Actually le lived in fear of many animals. But times hange. Man decided to wear clothes and nake friends with the creatures around him. Dne of the animals, Tomarctus, changed also, art of his family became known as Canis amiliaris, or the familiar dog which efriended man. Man and his companion the log freely roamed the earth. They appeared in Germany, Africa and even Wyoming. They idjusted to each other, each attending to his wn needs, but eventually relying more on iving and surviving together."At any rate, by 12,000 B.P. before the jresent, at least four recognizable subspecies f domestic dogs are identifiable in Eurasia, ach of which reflects a long period of domestication and structural change. These ire the polar dogs, the gazehounds, the Dariah-dingo, and the mastiffs." 1The polar or Northern dogs are perhaps the Dest known and, as Pomeranian breeders, should interest us the most. "These dogs are he wolf-like dogs roughly inhabiting the areas enclosed by the Arctic Circle. Similar to wives, most of these dogs have banded guard hairs and consequently "wild" coloring, erect ears, broad and powerful long-snouted skulls framed by display ruffs, robust trotting builds, and an air of jolly independence. By Neolithic times, 5,000 years B.P., several varieties of polar dogs had appeared in response to the increasing applications being developed by man. In addition to the huskies Siberian, Norwegian husky and elkhound, and the Alaskan Malamute this group includes the Samoyed, the Pomeranian, the Schipperke and other members of the "Spitz" family. Also associated with this group is the more easternly, but still Arctic dogs, the Chow and the Akita." 2Scientists have grouped these dogs in the following orderTOMARCTUSIcanine familiaris intermediusSamoyed Lhasa Terrier Egyptian Housedog I MalteseChinese Lion DogPomeranian Techichi Shock DogSchipperke Chihuahua Italian Spaniel MexicanHairlessHuskyMalamuteNorwegian Keeshond Chow Akita ElkhoundScientifically this stands today, unless one is a dog breeder who wishes to debate the scientists, particularly if one is a Schipperke breeder who disavows any relationship to the Pomeranian. But scientists have their bases in facts, mostly from the study of bones and teeth unearthed in archeological digs. Their records and research cover eons. Breeders have their history too. Some of it is written, some pictured, some of it verbal and much of it lost, unfortunately.People did not become interested in "pure-bred dogs" until the mid and late 1800's. At that time in England, Northern and Central Europe, people started to breed dogs because of existing desirable traits, physical likeness and structure, as well as ability and personality. Prior to this time some tribes of people, for instance the Nentsi, were long-time dog breeders. For the majority of breeders however, human intervention into dog breeding is less than 150 years old. Stud records and pedigrees began at this time. Breed clubs came about shortly thereafter.The Samoyed is widely credited on canine geneaological charts with being the "top man on the totem pole" the first historically known progenitor of "spitz" dogs. 3 The Samoyed is the direct ancestor of the Husky, Keeshond and the Pomeranian. An interesting fact is that in Rickett's book, "The New Complete Pomeranian," there is a picture of a Creek wine jug from the 4th century. It is stated that the dog pictured is a Pomeranian. This same picture is also in a Samoyed book and their historians say the dog is a Samoyed. The Keeshond book also presents the same picture, equally claiming the dog to be aPOMERANIAN REVIEWSweetheart Pomeraniansr- xWee Hearts A Little Pizazz3V4 poundsShow quality puppies available in all colors.

That of the color of the Jorthern dogs.Picture a Samoyed. It is a white dog tanding as high as 23 inches tall, right Well, he first Samoyed to be imported to England ly the breed's founders, Mr. and Mrs. iilburn-Scott, was a chocolate-brown male. Vriting about the breed in 1889 the Cilburn-Scotts state "we must recall that at his point in time they Samoyeds were not lecessarily the spectacular all-white variety, hey included black and tan, and black and vhite Samoyeds." Further description of the lifferent color of Samoyeds includes brindle, vhite, white with spots, black with white, vhite with black patches, reds, yellows, 'ellow spotted and red spotted. The Prince of Vales later to become King Edward VII had l Samoyed that was all white except for its lack head. Also, a noted dog authority, Mr. rank Sewell, reportedly owned an all sable jrown Samoyed. 4Two types of Samoyed tribe dogs existed. ne belonged to the nomadic tribe, the ill-white Bjelkier dogs. Bjelkier means "white hat breeds white" and is used in reference to nany animals. The pastoral tribes had dogs vhich were white, some black and white, and vhite with other colors. Both of these types vere bred together. The first standard idopted for the breed showed colors as pure vhite, white with slight lemon markings, jrown and white, and black and white. This vas later changed to pure white, white and jiscuit and cream, which is the standard that he Americans adopted when the Samoyed vas admitted to the AKC.In the United States today, a black or brown amoyed cannot be found. However, amoyeds that are white with biscuit or white ind cream, besides the pure white are ivailable. Look closely at their markings, rhey occur similar to the markings that the 3omeranian carries today. They can have ream or biscuit face and body markings eyebrows, chins, under the neck and patches sf color on their bodies besides shadings in he coat.The Keeshond itself has a colorful history, vhich is not well known and directly relates tothe Pomeranian. Evidence from many sources shows that over a long period, several varieties of Spitz dogs evolved in Germany, ranging in size and coloration from the 'Great White Spitz,' the 'Crosse Grau Wolfsspitz' large, gray, wolf-colored to the smaller 'Pommed Pomeranian. In 1899, the German breeders formed the' German Spitz Club, which established a stud book. Published in 1913, but covering the period from 1891 to 1898, those listed were 247 white, 222 black, 221 wolf-gray, 1 orange, 7 red and 1 particolored. This covered all varieties. 5 In Holland, where the Keeshond became nationally and internationally famous, the Crosse Grau Wolfsspitz was commonly white, but also existed in black and in gray was well as other colors. As recently as the 1970's, Keeshonds that are all white, all black and entirely pale-orange-to-liver colored without a gray or black hair on them, had been accepted in Holland and Germany for years. 6 Orange-to-liver colored pups have been whelped in this country in amongst gray-to- black littermates. This same gene pattern is known to occur in Norwegian Elkhounds. 7 Neither is allowed by the breed standard."The Complete Keeshond" by Clementine Peterson gives much history of both the Keeshond and the Pomeranian in England. In it she quotes the C.M. Hicks book, "The Pomeranian" England, 1906, which tells the story of the first "shaded sable Pomeranian" shown in London in 1899. This dog had been sent to a Miss Beverly in Britain by friends in Holland. Those in Holland called the dog a Keeshond. The British dog fancy had a field day, calling the dog a Pomeranian, a Keeshond, a Wolksspitz ora Spitz. 8 It fit all those categoriesSo what of the PomeranianAmong the first written references to the Pomeranian occured in 1570 in the treatise, "De Cannibus Brittanicus" written by the founder of Caius College in Cambridge, England. At that time the Cermanic Pomeranian Dog was under 30 pounds and seen in all colors solid, shaded, brindle and spotted.The Pomeranian in the 1800's is described by Taplin writing in the "Sportsman's Cabinet" 1803. "The Pomeranian is 18 to 20 inches high with a long, thick, and rather upright coat forming a tremendous ruff about the neck, but short and smooth on head and ears .POMERANIAN REVIEWATO s Pomeraniansproudly presentsZbS'ASitWINNERS MID-KENTUCKY KENNEL CLUB MAY 1986Rouse's Little FrecklesThis four pound black and tan female is shown winning her first point under judge Mrs. Dorothy Welsh.

He mentions that "the tail is ither large and bushy, and invariably curled i a ring above the back." 9Stonehedge, one of the most famous dog istorians, wrote in the 1850s about two lasses of Pomeranians. The larger, the omeranian Wolf Dog, bore a striking semblance to the St. Bernard, although the ead was smaller and more fox-like. He was iwn in color with black points. The smaller omeranian, or Spitz, or Loup-Loupe, was hite and closely resembled the Samoyed. hose found guarding flocks of sheep in omerania were usually black. However most f the dogs imported to England were white. I0The Germans were the first to miniaturize ie Pom. Their normal variety was in the 18 to 4 pound range, but the smaller variety aptured the hearts of many and the Germans apitalized on this drawf version.In 1859 England became the sponsor of the omeranian as at that time the first stud cords and pedigrees began. Pomeranians 'ere not able to be shown until 1871, owever. At the June show a trio of white ogs were shown, which were in the 12 to 20 ound range. By 1891 the Pomeranian Club 'as formed. The Pom's tail had straightened ut a bit to lay over the back and the "in" olor was black, followed by chocolate, blue nd the whites. Whites ran the gamut from ure white to biscuit to cream. It was also at iis time that the Pom got smaller. Many mes the show dogs were in the 8 to 14 pound inge, although there were specimens 'eighing in at T2 pounds. The Pomeranian lub started with divided classes for those ver and under 8 pounds. Later the weight 'as dropped to 7 pounds and in 1916, they liminated classes for those over 7 pounds.By the turn of the century the Pom was the reed to have. Although getting smaller, a niformity of type began to evolve, but there 'as still great variety in style, size, color and oat. Royalty greatly helped publicize the omeranian. Queen Victoria had her Windsor tarco and later the Duchess of Windsor had er portrait done with her particolored Pom. ainters such as Thomas Gainsborough, Sir jshua Reynolds and George Stubbs im- lortalized many colorful Pomeranians infamily portraits. Gainsborough is credited with an orange and white particolor with a little girl, a young boy with his black Pom, and a family with a black and white parti and their chocolate Pom. George Stubbs did an interesting painting entitled "The Prince of Wales' Phaeton" which depicts the Prince's black and white dog. 11 Although most of these paintings were done in the 1700's, many rushed to have theirs done in the same manner.By 1914 a Pomeranian left an indelible mark on our present day Poms. English Champion Mars captured the attention of many. He was a strange colored Pom and the first orange to garner a title. Fortunately he was a prolific stud and passed his flashy orange color down to us. 12Poms were imported to the U.S. in the late 1800's. Most of these firsts were chocolates, wolf sables, blues and whites. The first Pom entered in the AKC stud book was 'Dick' by Texas ex Foulette. He was a white born in September 1888 and owned by J. Jamison from San Francisco. 13 We were to have the same problem breeding Poms as England had, especially with the whites. They were big some staying around 28 pounds. The orange color became the rage and seemed to breed true. The orange Pomeranian took over, although several breeders continued to try their hands with the different, ancient- colored Poms.Today in the AKC show ring, there are only whitish Samoyeds, black-to-gray Keeshonds and Norwegian Elkhounds. The Pomeranian standard however, does call for many of the colors and patterns in its heritage. Color breeding continues to be frustrating, but gains have been made. Sometimes you have to look behind you before you can move further ahead.BIBLIOGRAPHY1 McLoughlin, John C., The Canine Clan, Viking Press 1983, pp. 90, 94-96, 105.2 Ibid, p. 90.3 Peterson, Clementine, The Complete Keeshond, Howell Book House, 1980, 6th Printing, p. 24.4 Brearly, Joan McDonald, This is the Samoyed, TFH Publications, 1975, p. 26.5 Peterson, Clementine, The Complete Keeshond, p. 26.6 Ibid, p. 174.continued on p. 102.POMERANIAN REVIEW 7Ch.

That is, they are still around, they just don't live at home any more. The family dog, restricted to the back yard because of unruly behavior is lonesome. "Maybe with all this time on my hands, I should take him to obedience school. It would help get him under control and then Kenneth and I could live in peace." So thought Jo Ellen as she paged through the Sunday paper about three years ago. The ad she found was for the Companion Dog School of Tulsa." Classes would start in a few weeks.Getting ready for class, Jo Ellen thought that it might be nice to have a dog all her own a little dog, a lap dog, something cute and cuddly.Training classes went well. The family dog, a German Shepherd-lrish Wolfhound mix, enjoyed the work as much as Jo Ellen. But soon a cute, cuddly Pomeranian puppy came to live with the Corleys. The family came to see the new addition. Confusing the Pom's heritage with the Peke, as some people do, the AKC registration form was filled out giving the puppy's name as Midnight Shogun. His call name would be Hopsing.The little black ball of fluff finally grew old enough to enter school. A year later, he had his CD title with scores of 195, 183 a real bad day, and 195Vi 1st place. Resting on their laurels, Hopsing and Jo Ellen took the summer as vacation. Open training awaited them in the Fall.Hoppi when he's good his name is shortened had absolutely no problems in Open. He jumps like mad, dashes out to retrieve and drops very quickly. Jo Ellen had the problems. She had grown, learning muchabout dogs, training and psychology. She recognized that Hoppi is not a 'natural retriever.' He did not play retrieve. He would chase. If something were thrown out for him, he would run off with it. She dreaded the time when dumbell retrieving would start. Hoppi was doing well on all the Open exercises but not retrieving. Her instructor kept asking, "When are you going to pinch that dog's ear" Not wanting to deliberately cause her dog pain, she kept making excuses. Finally, she did it. Wonder of wonders, Hoppi opened his mouth and took the dumbell. From then on, he retrieved He went after his "X" and in three straight shows with scores of 186, 196 1st place and 193 3rd place, became a Companion Dog Excellent.But life for Hopsing is not restricted to the obedience ring. Jo Ellen firmly believes that he is her companion, but that also he should be a good ambassador for the breed as well as a good representative of dogs in general. He goes with her everywhere and they have yet to hear a discouraging word. Most of the time people compliment his beauty and his manners. Jo Ellen also has this love for children. She has raised four and is a school teacher of 12th grade English. Perhaps that is why Hoppi is a Registered Therapy Dog Therapy Dogs International. Together they visit schools for the retarded where the kids love him. At first, Jo Ellen was very enthused about these visits, but then became very discouraged about how the children would try to treat the dogs. Soon though, a program was planned that would allow the dogs to perform tricks and afterwards some of the children with supervision would be allowed to visit closer.

Jo Ellen sels that Utility is the ultimate in training, he training itself has gone fairly smoothly nd is enjoyable, but can be very frustrating, hey have an excellent instructor in AKC jdge, Cail Brown, and receive much ncouragement from her.

The key to doing both at the same time is organization Here's how I handle doing both.The first thing I do when I get my judging schedule is see when I'll be in the breed ring. Most breed judging schedules are cut and dried. However, if there are other breeds before you, figure on judging 30 dogs per hour and you can get a rough idea of when you'll be in the ring. Look at your number in obedience and count up how many dogs are entered before you. A guideline and this is only a guideline is 8 dogs per hour are judged in Novice, 7 dogs per hour in Open and 6 dogs per hour in Utility. Also, check the judging schedule and see if they have included a sketch of the show grounds, and if so, locate your rings.For example, this past weekend Poms were being judged at 1245 in Ring 4 after 9 Papillons. There were 5 Pom dogs and I'm showing a bitch. To be on the safe side, I wanted to be at Ring 4 no later than 100. However, there were 20 Open dogs being judged starting at 1130 in Ring 15 on the other side of the show grounds. Jeffrey was eighth in the class and, according to my calculations, Jeff should have been in the ring about 1230. This is cutting the time too close for me, not leaving much room for delays. I would probably show in obedience, go get Amber, take Jeff and put him in his crate and get to the other side of the show grounds with possibly only seconds to spare. Therefore, I arrived at the show grounds early and at 1125 I was at the obedience ring waiting for thejudge. When he arrived, I explained to him that l would probably have a breed conflict and, if at all possible, could I go out of turn any time that was convenient for him. Thankfully, he said that it was no problem and I could be last in the class. I thanked him, told him how understanding he was and went on my way. If he had said no, I had to go in order, I would still have thanked him and made arrangements for someone to stand by to either show one of the dogs or make sure they were ready to go in the ring.I feel the key to successfully exhibiting in both breed and obedience is organization when you will be in breed, when you will be in obedience and where the rings are located. If timing is "iffy," don't take a chance. Ask the obedience judge if you can go out of turn. And remember, it's the judge's ring and he can do whatever he pleases. He is not obligated to accommodate you because of a breed conflict. If he does let you exhibit out of turn, let him know how grateful you are and, by the same token, if he wants everyone in catalog order, thank him for his time anyway and in the future, either just show in obedience under this judge or don't show under him at all. Remember always be a good sport and SMILEUntil next time, you all take care and happy heelingAlong Myway, from p. 39.and watched as his bitch grew desperately ill or died. The veterinary assistance available to breeders today is wonderful, but the breeder is still the one who must make the final decision. To make the best possible decision, the breeder needs to question whenever his information sounds illogical.I was fortunate in both of these instances, but they were good reminders to me and I hope, to you. We breeders must be alert to people around us and to instructions we receive.POMERANIAN REVIEW 85Silvas Pomeraniansproudly presents,Snr1Ch.

Remember, your efforts must be three-fold you must treat the house or kennel, the yard or runs, as well as the dogs. Read directions carefully. Don't overlap chemicals. If you dip your dogs, don't put a flea collar on them. If you win a flea collar as a match trophy, put it in the bag of your vacuum cleaner. I personally think internal medications to kill fleas either ingested by the dog as a pill or absorbed through the skin like Spot-On are a bad idea. They affect the flea only after the flea has bitten the dog and in the meantime, you have a toxic chemical circulating in your dog's blood. I am doubtful of their safety. If you're planning to get one of those ultra-violet lights that zap insects, don't hang it right beside the kennel but a distance away. You want to lure the critters away from the dogs, not toward them.Last summer we gave a baby shower for two new puppies acquired by members of our obedience club. What a fun party These were long-planned-for and eagerly-awaited puppies a Sheltie and a Terv. When they arrived a few days apart, a party was a must. Our cookout was greeted by one of the worst storms of the season, but that didn't dampen our spirits. After a wonderful pot-luck meal, we had presents for the babies photo albums, assorted toys, leads, leash rack, rawhide chewies, treats, even a puppy baby book.At this party several "big dog" people admitted that they'd always thought toy dog owners were rather silly and over-protective of their dogs. But since knowing me and my dogs, they'd realized that such behavior is absolutely necessary. When 1 first read Molly Miller's column on this subject, I though, "Ohno, I hope this doesn't scare novices so badly that they won't want to go to dog shows." But I re-read the column, thought over my own near-misses, and realized that we all need to be warned to be very careful.The trouble is, no matter now vigilant and protective we are, we have little control over the actions of others. And many dog owners and handlers are outrageously thoughtless and careless. This spring I attended an outdoor all-breed show. Since I hadn't handled the special in awhile, I took him to the grass beyond the grooming tent to warm him up. Before setting him down, I looked around. No other dogs in sight. We walked about 10 feet, then turned to see a Great Dane loping toward us. I reached to pick up Mighty, but he darted away in fear. Then the Dane knocked me down and grabbed Mighty in his mouth. It was probably only a matter of seconds, but while I was on the ground, struggling to reach Mighty and screaming my head off, it seemed an eternity and I knew the dog was dead. Then somehow I was on my feet, straightening my glasses, to see Mighty running to the waiting arms of someone under the grooming tent. He was alive A quick examination showed he waj_badly frightened but otherwise unharmed. The explanation of the Dane's owner "I have a bad knee so when he jumped up on me, I just let go of the lead" I must have been in shock because I accepted her apology and asked her to please get her dog away from my grooming table. It was only later that I got angry. I've thought about this incident a lot. It was just because the Lord was looking after him that Mighty was not hurt. And I really can't see what I could have done differently. The feeling of utter helplessness was awful.I think we small dog people need to make an effort to educate other dog owners. Not just big dog owners either, because a small terrier such as a Cairn or a Norwich can be bad news as well. Perhaps you could volunteer to give a talk at your local all-breed club or obedience club. Most program chairmen will welcome suggestions.

If I were a judge, I would nrobably be able to spot cropped ears. I can ecognize over-trimming because I've spent a ot of time grooming Pom coats. Is it possible hat a judge less familiar with Poms might not He sure if it is trimmed or natural I doubt if I rould tell if a dog was dyed or had nrthodontia. Remember, a judge has less than wo minutes per dog for his examination. Let's ace it. We exhibitors must take full -esponsibility for this skulduggery. A judge can't put up a dyed dog unless it comes into he ring. We're the ones who doctor up our Jogs and try to fool the judge. Why Do we -eally want dogs with white feet or bad nouths in our breeding programs The people who do these things simply want to win. They ire impatient. It takes generations of nlanning, intelligence, and years of work to sliminate faults from a breeding program. A ittle Lady Clairol or surgery is a quicker fix. So hen we can brag we've finished 39 champions nstead of 38.So what do we do about it I doubt if the aroblem can be eliminated altogether. The weak, dishonest or misguided will always be with us. But we can cut down on it. The APC ind our other Pom clubs need to provide npportunities for judges to learn more aboutour breed. We can show them what over-trimming and too much hair spray look and feel like. What about our Code of Ethics Is it complete Is it effective Can if be enforced Should the Board be more willing to hear and act on complaints of unethical behavior by APC members Let's hear from you What do you think will benefit our breedHow about sending me your "Pet Peeves" If we air them in this column, maybe someone will take the "hint." For example, I have a client in another breed who sends me in the ring with her dog, is delighted when we win, then takes the lead herself to have the picture taken. This shouldn't bother me, since she's paying for the picture and it's her dog, but it bugs me nonetheless. Send me your sources of irritation. It ought to make you feel better to write them down.Exhibitors, handlers, judges and stewards are an obvious and important part of the dog show scene. There are lots of other folks who play essential roles, work very hard, give generously of their time, but may not receive proper appreciation. These wonderful people do the planning, raise funds, provide food and transportation, solicit advertising, scoop poop, type, gather and distribute trophies, put on matches, teach handling or obedience classes, run errands and on and on. It takes only a few minutes of your time to write a note or simply say, "Thank you" to let these behind-the-scenes folks know that you appreciate their efforts.Food For Thought Department What would happen if Group and Best in Show competition were eliminated Wow, mind- boggling Many of the specials would go home.

But if you ant to have some fun, and maybe get lots of lots of your Pomeranian and not have to pay large price, then read onI am not going to get into a discussion out which type of camera you should have the kind of film. You can read any photo anual on that subject. Use the camera that u already have and the film that goes with What you do need is a steady hand, a juple of rolls of film, two doggy friends uman to assist, and a day or the better part it at your disposal.And, of course, you need a dogFirst, start with a well groomed dog that's me out well enough for you to put in the iow ring. Do any trimming you might need do a day or so ahead. As well, have him ithed and fluffed dry. Neglecting the ithing will show up in the prints and may st ruin what could have been the best photo your dog's life. Take this care even if it's a ood bitch that's never been in the ring. She ill be thrilled with all the extra primping and r attitude will show up on the prints.Now that you've got the dog done out, me location planning is in order. You will int to think about an area that has a fairly nple background. No fences, posts, cars or her distracting things for your background ew. Recreation areas and parks are prime ots. Ask yourself if you want woods, rocks green fields behind the dog. Look for short opped grass so as not to lose the dog's legs better yet, a small size gravel is a good edium for the Pom to stand on. With those oblems solved days in advance, then all you Lve to do is find a lead that the Pom canwear that will be approximately the same color as the background. Heavy poly fish line is see-through and you can make a lead that will be almost invisible. The idea is to have some control over the dog but not to have a conspicuous line glaring out at the viewer from the photograph and taking the eye away from the main subject.I suggest that you have two people to help one to hold the dog on the lead and thfe other to distract or get his attention. At this point I must warn you that too many attention attracting noises from your helpers will just bore the dog so have them say nothing to the dog until you are ready to shoot the photo. Only then can they talk to him. In fact, I find that the holder of the lead should say nothing at all to the Pom.If you are near a recreation area, ball park, etc., let the little fellow look around and if he wants to bark at children or some person staring at the whole proceedings, then let him. That's when the best shots are obtained. In my case I've used my eight year old son who Poms hate on sight and stand him about 30 feet off in the direction that I want the dog looking and have him do sommersaults and head stands. THAT's a sight guaranteed to make any Pomeranian stand on his toes and stare.Remember to start the whole session in a good frame of mind. Be relaxed, cheerful and patient. That's why you need the best part of the day. Try not to get tense. If you find yourself getting uptight then stop and play with the dog, give him a tidbit and maybe the both of you could stand a refreshing drink.Don't do a lot of setting up stacking of his legs. You will get a more natural look if he will walk into a stance. There are not many dogs that will look bad if they are on their tiptoes looking and waiting for something in the distance to move.At this point you should know which view will show off the fine points of the candidate.I suggest looking in breed magazines and trying all the angles that appeal to you. Now you can see why I said to use a couple rolls of film.So as not to give your Pom a dwarf-likePOMERANIAN REVIEW 91Chip-A-Way Pomeranianspresents\1kBESTOF WINNERS,Li Jt.Ch.

Box 1259 Truro, Nova Scotia Canada B2N5N2This month's column was supposed to be dedicated to the Top Poms in Canada. Unfortunately the positions are unavailable at this point in time because they are being contested. It would be unfair to all parties concerned to make any announcements until the results are official again.June 20th will be the First National Specialty for the Pomeranian Club of Canada. It promises to be a grand event. It is held in conjunction with the Vancouver International Dog Shows in Vancouver B.C. The judge will be the well-known all rounder, Mr. Melbourne Downing of Maryland.Money raising projects have been going on all over the country for the event. Here in the east a group of Pom fanciers held a match on one of the worst days of winter. Money was raised in spite of it and special thanks should go to Michele and Frankie McDonald for their efforts. Michele and her mother are also Trophy Chairpersons and have been overwhelmed by the donations of cash and items received from all over the country. Since everything must be shipped from one end of Canada to the other, they are still looking for any more cash donations they can get in. Out in B.C., members Joan Grant, Till Labovich and Gerda Hill are busily working to make our first specialty a huge success.It's still early for shows here in Canada but Natalie Dunfee is off to a good start with her Ch. Great Elms Shining Star, co-owned by Carolyn Roberts. They have recently won their 13th all-breed Best in Show He only needs 3 more for the record in Canada. Speaking of records, Dorothy Jones recently finished her girl Ch. Onabrook's Pride and Purpose, who was our Medallion's 20th champion in Canada.My husband John has been showing Chula's Lulabye Dragon for Rex and Betty Bell of Vermont and at this writing she just needs a couple of points to finish in Canada. This adorable orange girl was bred by Norma Gadof El Paso, TX. Norma, who has produced many good ones over the years, is one of those lovely ladies who shares her knowledge and her puppies with others.While bathing Poms the other day I came across something that works really well. Probably everyone with Poms is plagued with that fine hair behind the ears that never seems to stay fluffy for very long. My husband uses dish detergent to get coated dogs Lhasas, Shih Tzus, etc.J out of oil. The kind that "cuts through grease" is the best Lux. A couple of drops lathered in behind each ear and left while you bathe the dog in your regular shampoo, and rinsed out as usual really does the trick.Till next time . . .Photo Hints, continued.appearance, lie on your stomach to be on the same level he is. There is nothing worse than a shot that looks down on the dog. All that does is show how many weeds are in the grass and make the Pom look like a weasel.The other thing to be aware of is a curling tongue. Don't bother wasting film by shooting when the dog's mouth is open. It makes him look like he's about to expire from lack of water.Lastly, try for an overcast but bright day. Just after a rain is great for the dogs' color but not for poor you, out in the wet grass crawling around on your belly. It would be better to wait for the grass to dry anyway, otherwise your Pom will end up with wet feet and legs in the photo.With lots of luck and planning you should be able to take a couple of nice shots out of the rolls of film. The ugly ones you get to throw away and not let anyone else see. Just show the good ones and no one's the wiser. It's quite normal to have only a shot or two turn out well and the rest be awful. Who cares anyway It only takes one photo to sell someone on the fact that you have a nice Pom.Happy ShootingPOMERANIAN REVIEW 93LLL KemteCs- T6Lj...BEST OF WINNERSSAUNAKENNEL CLUB 1986PHOTO BY PETRULISVidAE 2 HLLL T's Gold Totally AwesomeCh.

Box 432 Sand Springs, OK 74063JTPOMERANIAN REVIEW36THE DOG GAMEby Nigel Aubrey-JonesAt a recent doggy get-together the mention if dogs being worthy of the title of Champion vas brought up. What started it was the omment by one judge that he recently had ecome aware of what the "Challenge rertificate" meant at English shows. In order o become an English Champion a dog must vin three Challenge Certificates under three Afferent judges, and one of the Challenge Certificates has to be won after the dog is one rear old, regardless of how many Certificates he dog wins during puppyhood.This judge was impressed by the statement hat he had to sign on the Challenge Certificate before it is awarded. The statement demands that the judge considers the dog of uch merit as to warrant the title of Champion. Many of the other guests present bought this an excellent idea. Some agreed hat points were often awarded to dogs for vhich judges would hesitate to sign a itatement as to their being worthy of the title Champion. This being true does throw some ight on the merit of many of the hundreds of Champions that are made each year. Another udge felt that the majority of exhibitors do lot consider the title of Champion to be inything special, as they realized that in nany cases it was automatic if the dog went o enough shows.Not that I ever pay much attention to inyone who speaks for the majority ispecially in dogs. I am sure that the Championship title means a great deal to a reat many people. Whether its winning could e made more important through its ichievement being more difficult is another natter.Every year more shows appear on the dog how calendar. In some parts of the country entries are on the increase in others on the lecline. With boring regularity more and nore people are being approved to judge in irder for the demand created by the number if shows satisfied. The dogs exhibited at these hows need handlers, and so the numbers ame continues and more and more handler censes are issued every month. In the neantime, there are exhibitors who expressconcern about the value of the title "Champion." Some complain that it is just too easy to obtain. Others, with just as much compassion, think that it is too difficult Many state that judges do not withhold points often enough when dogs are unworthy of the title of "Champion." With the tremendous popularity of dogs, shows, entries, judges and handlers, it would be quite easy to assume that "Everything in the garden is lovely," as the vicar used to say. But is itAs long as the present system exists that of there being only match shows and point shows, with each and every one of them holding the exact amount of merit there will always be what some people call "cheap Champions." There are only two places for the dog, the exhibitor, judge and handler to go. Once a novice has savored the taste of a lucky win at a point show, his opinion of the match show wins diminishes as he considers them nothing more than ideal training ground for puppies which is what their original purpose was. There is no intermediate area for exhibitors, judges, or handlers and we must not forget that one important part of the sport, the dog to gain intermediate ring experience and do some growing up, other than in the point show. Sometimes the results are a lucky and unjustifiable win, or, in reverse, an equally unlucky and unjustifiable loss, due to a dog being out of its depth against the more mature and seasoned competition.An "intermediate" dog show has been mentioned and discussed many times in the past. There have been many sensible and practical suggestions made regarding the importance of grading dog shows. There is a need for an area between the match show and the point show which would open up a tremendous area to gain, knowledge and experience. Some countries have what they call an open show. It is a show open to all dogs, but no points are awarded toward a title. These shows have grown into large and prestigious events, and many of them are far bigger in size than some of our point shows. They allow for the "growing pains" that takePOMERANIAN REVIEW 9r5i rr yWatts PomeraniansScotia A Bit of ConsolationI wish to take this opportunity to acknowledge that Edna Cirardot, due to health problems, had to close down her famed Scotia Kennels and made the decision to make her home with me and Dave this past December.

Along with this recent move, I have acquired some of her dogs with which, combined with mine, I hope to carry on the Scotia line.

It could give an ipportunity for learning at all levels and grant iome assurance that those who are approved o award points toward the important title of Champion had done their homework and ained some sound practical experience hrough serving an' apprenticeship at an ntermediate level prior to being elevated to he top. The present system of so many dog ihows, all of the the same caliber, demands hat enough judges be approved to fill this leed. Fewer shows with a higher standard of Jogs, exhibitors, judges and handlers, would ilevate the importance of the title of Ihampion and the quality of the judging. It vould also give more importance to the vinning of Best of Breed, which has been ivershadowed by group and Best in Show vins. The monthly statistics issued by the \merican Kennel Club for registrations, dog hows, approved judges and handlers, and the lumber of dogs that gain their titles, clearly eveal that there is a need to study and valuate the true position of the sport as it is ind where it goes from here.There is also the knowledge and ability ivailable to correct the problems of growth. Jut authority sometimes has a tendency to ear its own strength when it comes to making ven very necessary changes.

So let there e light. . .Protect Yourself and your Dogs TATTOOA breeder-exhibitor sent a dog to an out-of-state handler. This handler, when requested to return the dog, sent a dog to the breeder which the breeder feels sure is not her dog the markings, body shape and size, head and teeth do not agree with the breeder's memory of the dog.This breeder may or may not be correct in her claims however, she feels that the dog cannot be used at stud as planned, and the bloodlines, furthermore, are lost to her.All this may or may not be true, but the point is this TATTOO YOUR DOGS, especially if you send them away to another person in another state. It could present not only outright dishonesty or even an honest mistake, but also circumstances such as the accidental death of the handler it has happened, illness of the handlerkennel help, the accidental switching of look-alike dogs, resulting in the wrong dog used at stud, and I'm sure you can imagine a whole lot more bad things that can happen to dog, handler and owners.On the flip side, in that these accusations seem to come somewhat frequently, why don't the handlers insist that they dogs they receive be tattooed It would protect their reputations, prevent mismatings, and avoid possible law suits, to say nothing of harmful gossip.What about AKC insisting that dogs be tattooed, as they are in Europe, and numbers being checked on going into the ring Or even being checked by vets when being x-rayed for OFA . . . and on and on . . .1986 DeadlinesSeptember Issue November Issue January 1987 IssueJuly 15 September 15 November 15March 1987 Issue January 15,1987POMERANIAN REVIEW 99trre.m m 3KCSireAm.

This spring came early for me while attending the Louisville Kennel Club Centennial Dog Show. The magnolia, forsythia, tulips and daffodils were blooming and we still had snow on the ground at home in Wisconsin. The only consolation is we don't have to mow the grass as many days as they do. This time of year I don't think snow.The Louisville dog show site is a nice place for a cluster. There is ample room for exhibitors to exercise, groom and show their dogs. Motor homes have plenty of space with water and electrical hook-ups, reasonable priced motel rooms close by, and a relatively central location.Now, if we could hold our National Specialty at a place like this . . . Seven breed clubs held their local specialty the day before the four all-breed shows. National Specialties could be held on the same day. As it was, four National Specialties were held the day of the Louisville Show.Florida has a very nice circuit the first two weeks of January. This would be another nice time and place to consider for a National Specialty.The hang-up is that our charter requires that the annual meeting be held in the state of New York. If we moved the National Specialty away from New York, we couldn't draw a quorum for the annual meeting since it is the Specialty which really attracts the members. To get around that problem, the charter would have to be moved to a different state one in which we would have our National Specialty. It gets complicated, doesn't it It would also involve a lot of work. Does the membership really want to put forth the effort to change or do they want to leave things as they are Give your opinions in the Yips and Yaps column.By the time you read this column, I willhave taken four breed's Standard test. I certainly should be able to pass the one on Poms. If AKC allows me to do so, I am hoping to go into the field of judging. I will still be able to show my own dogs, but will no longer be allowed to show dogs owned by someone else.

We can of course give specifics as we do now to those colors or combinations that might be confusing to some, but as it is now what do we do with a dog like Bonner's Pep-R-Kute Nightfire, a black and silver I was fortunate enough to use him and saw him several times during his last years with the Queenaire Kennels. He was a wonderful example of a Pom, worthy of being in the ring and a finished champion, but for his color. It's a shame too, for I am sure that there are many dogs that have been placed in pet homes because of being an unacceptable color in the ring. I feel that for the benefit of the breed and its future, we need to concentrate on many other parts of the Pom and let the colors be, very much as quoted by Isadore Schoenberg. Sure, some judges will prefer the common colors and put them up over some of those which might be different, but we should at least provide for all colors to be acceptable and let the judges decide for themselves. As it stands there are colors and combinations on which we have no guideline . . . such as with a chocolate and cream. A chocolate sable might be excused if the judge were not familiar with the standard or the color. We have many new judges licensed for our breed and some may be confused as to what our present standard describes. I have had people come to me with Poms whose color they couldn't describe. Color, as with coat, is the frosting on the entire dog and it's time we revised our standard to allow many lovely dogs to compete who are barred due to color. Color alone should never be the deciding factor in a judge's placement.The Pekingese fancy addressed the color issue a time ago and now their standard is far more in tune with a practical reading for their breed. The Japanese Chins are in the process of dealing with their color issue right now, but it has been about 2 years that I have been aware of their efforts. Let's not take that longand get our standard ironed out. Of course this would lead to changes within the pigment section also, as many would not be allowed if they had lighter pigment, going along with their coat color.One other point, I still think that the ideal size for show should be raised to 6 pounds, reading "from 4-6 pounds," or eliminate all of it, except to say that the I im it is 7 pounds. The Yorkie, Maltese and others are this way. We could also add, "Overall quality is to be favored over size," to reinforce the notion.CAROL GALAVICHIt has been a year since the death of our Hope, a tiny female Pom, but I still feel I must tell what happened to her. If this caution saves one little Pom's life, it will be worth its space in print.I know you have all heard stories like this before, but sometimes we think we are different, or it couldn't happen, but it does. I admit I was very apprehensive about the acquisition of our 2 year old female Doberman, Tasha. But after all, she had been raised by my girlfriend, around children, Pugs and Poms. Plus she was a nice, quiet, obedience Dobe having attained her CD shortly after coming to live with us. Our two house Poms, Puff and Holly really didn't like her, but managed to co-exist. Hope, a tiny premie pup, was added to our family pet collection. She was very energetic and bossy in comparison to the two older Poms. We tried not to allow Hope to aggravate Tasha, but it was difficult without suppressing her personality. After a few years, and just 3 weeks after finishing Hope's championship, I had finally grown to trust our "big girl," even allowing 12 or 15 kennel Poms to play around her in the backyard. Then tragedy struck A tiny piece of watermelon that I dropped on the back porch was tossed out in the yard to Tasha who loved that kind of thing and just that quick, with no warning, Hope was killed instantly in one bite, apparently from a broken neck. The Dobe seemed to be surprised at her own actions, but needless to say we no longer have her either.I do not believe very large dogs and little Poms should share the same household. I will108 POMERANIAN REVIEWnever again trust a large dog around mine. There is just no second chance.ANNE THEIS OYLERI'm writing this because after subscribing to the Pom Review for a few years, I haven't read much about the Oklahoma shows. I'm here to tell you that they are fantastic I've been going there for five days, twice a year for six years. Even though I've lost much more than I've won, I still come home happy.

Thank you folks for your Oklahoma hospitalityPAULINE B. HUGHESAgain I need the cooperation of many of my fellow Pomeranian breeders. I have been updating the book "Your Pomeranian" which was published by Den linger in 1969. It needs to have pictures of our present day top winners, top producers, cute or promising puppies, and unusual situations involving Poms.There will be no charge for using the pictures, but return postage is requested if you want them back after publication. Black and white glossy is best. The size can be 5 x 7 or 8 x 10. Good detail and clarity is important. The editors will make the final selection.Several chapters are being added so your suggestions and personal information may well find a place in the book. I want it to be as comprehensive as possible.Please include all picture data. Don't put it on the back of the picture where it might interfere with the reproduction. Send your material directly to me as soon as possible. The manuscript is almost ready.Pauline B. Hughes 1726 Crest DriveEncinitas, CA 92024 619 753-5807CLAIRE FLESNERFirst of all, my congratulations to Phyllis on the Pom Review's win in the Dog Writer's contest. Fantastic What a way to go You have really done a great job with the Review.I do have a complaint. In Sam Zaneoffs account of the obedience demonstration at the Specialty Show he states, "For the first time at our National Specialty, we saw an obedience demonstration." This is not a true statement. Ten years ago there was an obedience demonstration given, narrated and demonstrated by Gladys Dykstra and her Am. Can. Ch. Topaze Lady Jennifer, Am. Can. CD,Am. CDX. Also participating were Sally Misura and her Boda's Topaze Lady Pixie CD and Dr. Pat Scelso and his Paladin Oliver L'Ami de Roland CD. The report of that demonstration can be found on page 10 of the April 1976 Pomeranian Review.By no means to I want to take anything away from Mary Vicker's efforts and great demonstration. I just wanted you and the Pom world to know that there had been a previous obedience demonstration.Keep up the good work.Dear Officers, Members and Friends,Today in Rogers, Arkansas, hobbyshow breeders are in serious trouble. Due to a new animal ordinance in which there is no distinction made between a private hobby or show kennel and a commercial kennel, two of our residents have already been refused their private kennel licenses, read their rights, and told they would be cited for not registering as commercial breeders. As you know, being active in obedience andor conformation does not constitute a commercial kennel We need your help We came up with the following suggested definitionsCommercial Kennel excluding a boarding or training kennel A person or persons who breed dogs or cats for the purpose of sale or resale to dealers, brokers, pet shops, and other local or non-local commercial kennels.Private Kennel A person or persons actively engaged in the sport of showing dogs either in conformation, obedience, or field trials in a non-professional capacity. Their primary purpose is to own andor show dogs of champion quality by recognized standards either AKC or UKC and not to exceed onePOMERANIAN REVIEW 109litter per bitch per year.Please help us explain to our city that there is a definite difference between the two If we can get enough responses from organizations and individuals like yourselves, we hope to be able to work with the city officials to help control over-population and uncontrolled breeding.We feel attacked as responsible dog owners whose main concern is to love and better our breeds, and to further the interest of purebred dogs. Our dogs are our families, so please drop a line to our mayor and help us fight to keep our dogs We never dreamed this could happen in a small city like Rogers, BUT.. . . if it can happen here, it can happen where you live, tooThank you very much,Anne Oyler, ATO's Pomeranians Heidi Smith, Davallia Ibizans Louise Smith, Ozarka Dachshunds and concerned othersPS. Letterhead stationary will probably carry more weight with our city officials, but ANY responses will be greatly appreciated.Kennel Review Magazine Awards Presentation and Kennel Review Magazine's Tournament of Champions The WinnersOver 700 guests attended Kennel Review Magazine's Annual Awards Presentation and Tournament of Champions in Detroit's Cobo Hall on March 8, 1986.
