C.D.X., HALL OF FAMEIf the Pom world did not know it before, they do now. Huggy has his Utility Dog Title The great day was September 23, 1990. That was also the day he was retired. At least I retired him not so by his standards. He is still after me to "work." Occasionally we do an open run-through. His bark and his flashy retum-to-heel position are still there.Utility was hard. Not the training, nor the matches, but the shows. It was in the ring where Huggy would show his intelligence and stubbornness by changing the AKC exercises, doing them his way. It was also there that he would teach me how to handle any other obedience dog I ever plan on showing again.Many people gave up on Huggy getting his UD. I did. He had received his first leg in November1989. He was brought out again in the spring. On June 1st, I gave up. A very good friend of mine, Linda Lundgren of SKOOF Shelties, had up until that time allowed me to cry on her shoulder with every nq. Having trained with her, having traveled to shows with her, Linda knew Huggy COULD do the exercises. She strongly believed he could get the next two qualifying legs. She took Huggy to her home, to matches and then to shows. At first she was worried that Huggy would not work for her. Wrong. Huggy did not care if he was working utility with her or her husband Charley. Linda and Huggy got the second leg in August form the Utility B class.There was one show in September that Linda could not show Huggy in the "B" class. I entered him in the"A" class to my great relief and utter amazement, he qualified for the title leg.Huggy has always been a terrific ambassador for the Poms. He has gathered many friends and supporters from his first show in novice A to the present day. He is the 78th Pom to get the UD. In all probability at a little over age ten and a half, he is the oldest Pom to ever gain any title. First and foremost though, Hugs is my best friend. The only regret I have is that he left the confirmation ring with only a major and points. Emotionally I could not return him to the breed ring.Huggy plays with open nowadays and for exercise goes to the park to track. A T.D. is not in his future. There is a time to call it quits, besides there are four other Poms who need to be worked. Soon it will be their turn in the rings.Mary Vickers 2818 Jefferson Drive Alexandria, VA 22303 703-960-7755The standards by which all Pomeranians are judged has just been increased...VT...and its an3 merican PomeranianlubexclusivePomeranian RSWOSiH MarchApril 1991 13iS [l3Qff3wPresidentMary Vidors1st Vice PresidentAudrey gberts2nd Vice PresidentDavid WattsSRecording SecretaryMappetft A.

Garvey edltorIm not really sure where to begin. As you may have noticed there have been quite a few changes made. First we have a new slate of officers congratulations good luck to all. Second a new Review editor thats me and third a whole new format for the Pomeranian Review.In the beginning...Let me first explain how I ended up as the new editor. The afternoon of December 18th I got a call from a friend knowing I have a desktop publishing business telling me that the APC was looking for a new editor. By the evening of the 18th, my husband, Leo who is also my sales representative got on the phone with the APC President, Dolores Watts. After a few phone conversations, Leo was asked by Dolores to give a presentation in New York City at the annual board meeting.Things began to snowball...On February 9th, Leo was at the meeting fully prepared. Desk Top Publishing can entail a lot of different type jobs. We hadnt done anything that looked like the Pomeranian Review in the past especially with all those photos. We went to the trouble of having a mock proposal cover in the old, smaller format made to show the committee that we could produce something similar to what they had in the past We also put together presentation packages for each board member, and had contracts ready to be signed so that we could start on the March issue right away. A decision was not reached that night. The board was considering changing the Pomeranian Review to a larger format what you have here based on a quotation received by another publishing house.Back to square one...We had to start all over again. Gathering infoimation on number of pages, size, volume. We even had to change the entire format we used the first time for quoting so the board could compare apples to apples not oranges. Another couple of trips to the printing house to get another quotation for the new, larger size. On Saturday, February 16th, we faxed the new quotation to Mary Vickers the new APC President. Four hours later we were contacted by Mary and told the committee had selected us, and all that was required was confirmation by all officers. We were also told that Brace Driggers would be sending us all the material for the March issue Now, keep in mind that by February 15th, the March issue is supposed to be in the mail and on its way to youPlay ballWe received the package on February 16th and the mad dash began. Mind you, as I write this March 3rd the committee still has not confirmed us as the new editorpublisher. The contracts are still in the mail, somewhere, and we expect to have them by the end of this week., so I ask you to please bear with me. I will get the Review back on track, by making it my FIRST PRIORITYPardon our appearance during remodeling...Its one thing to become the new editor and publisher under normal circumstances. Its quite another when you inherit, a publication that is already late when you receive it. Its even worse when you inherit something that has just changed its format, and basically has to be redesigned from page one right through to the last pageWhat Im getting at is if you see a large number of typos, some formatting that just doesnt make sense, or anything else that would send the words off with her head through the community, bear with me. By the time we get to the third issue, things should be pretty much settled, and the format will be complete.If you have any constructive criticisms, or good ideas, please send them. I cant promise theyll happen, but every bit and everybody can help.Submit what you like to see...If you are a committee member of a local club, make sure there is something from your chapter in every issue Make it a top priority Last but certainly not least, lets make those reservations for the back cover and both inside covers of the Review. How about a nice center spread advertisement You can call, write, or fax to find out which issues are available. Lets work together at making this magazine something to be proud ofEtc...On a personal note, I do love the breed and am the proud owner of a lovely orange female named "Brandy," who is very special to me. I have no intentions of showing Poms, but I go to a few local shows on occasion to cheer on the friends I have met since I bought her 4 years ago. I have been a subscriber to the Pom Review since 1987 and have acquired quite a few back issues. I have always enjoyed the Pomeranian Review and this makes the quality of the magazine very important to me.Sincerely,6 MarchApril 1991 Pomeranian tRlWQSMJLun. -Jls,s. lPo ms xan.

Vickersfrom the presidentFrankly folks, Im a bit embarrassed about having my name show up in print here. It is not that I am embarrassed about being President, I am not. But, I have Huggy on the cover and the accompanying cover story I ghost wrote the kennel visit and there is all the obedience information. Then there is the ad about videos. It does look as if this is "my" issue. It does look like one person is "taking over" the APC. Although this may be your first impression, I do NOT want it to become a fact I plan to work very hard to make sure this does not become true Quite simply, I thought this would be Dolores end of office message. The Garveys inform me that this was already done in the January issue. It is February 23rd as I write this and I have yet to receive my January issue.When I made a decision to run for this office, I spent many hours no, days - O.K. months looking at the problems this Club has and attempting to find solutions. One of the first things I did was view the Club as a business. In actuality it is, although a non-profit one and does not pay workers. Lets talk about problems and possible solutions.The major problems in my opinion facing the Club are communication, organization and finances.To meet the communication problem - at the banquetmeeting when I took office, I made all the elected officers bring chairs to the front of the room and sit there so all could see who they were. You elected them. They are YOUR very visible people who run the Club. They are YOUR elected officials. I then declared that the Board would be an "open" Board. What that means is any business brought before the Board can be and is expected to be discussed by the Board members and YOU. They are to seek you out and ask your opinion AND they are to bring back YOUR ideas. The only time when the Board can be closed or silent is when we need to protect the identity of a personkennel, etc. This was only the first step towards the problem. There are many more to comeTo change the organizational problem - I presented to those members present and then to the Board the followinga Only Sally Baugniet can continue to be a committee chairperson Education Judges and general. All other Board members can be on a committee if they choose, but cannot be a chairman. This is so we de-centralize responsibility and get more members active in running the Club. But, each and every Board member can choose or will be assigned as a delegate or liaison to a committee. Their responsibility to those committees is to give their experiences and communicate what those committees are doing to the Board and make sure this info reaches the membership.b I will eagerly accept anyone who wishes to work for this Club, this breed, if they have the experience, the background, the qualifications and the willingness to work, even if they joined this Club yesterday Apparently the Board took this to heart. John Cribbs who was by your vote elected as a Board member, had decided not to serve if he were elected. This left a vacancy on the Board which was then filled as by our by-laws. Surprisingly, although several names were tossed out, Cheryl Wagner won a majority vote. Cheryl got her Poms accidently, as she puts it Cheryl has been in Samoyeds for 18 years, she has a tremendous background in dogs, showing, whelping and in clubs. She was as stunned as many of you are by her being appointed, and she promises to do her best.c As "we" dont know each member individually, in the March roster will be a membership survey and Pom census. From the info we get back, we hope to learn a lot more about YOU, what you do, and how you do it. The census will be about the number and type of Poms you own and what you are doing with them. In the year 1989 there were 32,000 Poms that got AKC registration papers, and almost 25,000 separate litters who got papers. How many of these belong to APC members What control, what representation do we really have in the Pom world Are we really doing all that is in our power to protect and advance the interests of our beloved breed You may feel these are strange questions, but what are the answers I hope each of you will take the time to fill out the survey and return itd The Board then graciously and enthusiastically approved these committeesArchives Historian and LibraryAudioVisual and Computers AwardsBoard of ExaminersEducation Judges and General HealthHealth - sub committee Skin DiseaseLocal Clubs Membership Secretary Obedience Review Liaison Public Relations Ways MeansIf anyone out there is interested contact myself or any of the Board people.Financial problems - we do not need a balance of 100,000.00 but we need to stop running a zero, near zero or under zero balance three months out of the year.

It will operate on three levels.1 One shot deals such as raffles, auctions at Specialties, etc.2 The opening of the POM SHOPPE. The shopkeeper is Bess Roberts in MD.3 An Annual Yearbook about Poms covering the previous year. That would include titled Poms, Award winners, etc. from 1990 published in a 1991 book. Needed is person, or persons to make this happen NOW, this year. Someone to collect the ads, perhaps do lay-up and design, and find a printer. One of you out there is capable of this, or maybe one of you can go out on a limb and give it a tryMore about the happenings in New York.....First, if I was not elected President, I thought these ideas good enough to bring to the new Board and came to the membership meeting prepared to present them at the Board meeting. As I was elected, I got to give out many of my ideas straight to the members. I would like to thank each and every board member who stayed in that Board meeting until 330 AM All of us hope that no other Board meeting will last that long again. I hope, under me, it wontSecond, the 1991 Annual Specialty will go down in everyones memory for a very long time. The previous Board decided to try going with Empire Assoc. Specialties in NYC, this one time. We tried it. It seemed to be the unanimous decision of those members present NOT to do it again, what an understatement We wish those who continue with Empire Specialties the best. Someone will take our place. We are going back to our own Specialty. A Specialty should be just that, SPECIAL. A 2 day format is being discussed. We will have obedience in NY next time and what is this about a "Veterans Sweepstakes" Youll hear more about this later.Third, the Skin Disease Seminar was absolutely, positively, the very best thing to happen to the Pom world. Janice Luginsland is to commended for a remarkable job. It is a shame that we now know what she is capable of just as she is leaving us. Anyway, see for yourself, as the video tapes from the Seminar are available see ad elsewhere. The topic of researching to find out about this problem has started and will continue as soon as the chairperson receives approval.Fourth, the Summer Specialty is May 24th in Midwest City, Oklahoma. It is hosted by the Sooner Pom Qub. If enough Board members are going we will try to have an APC membership meeting. If not enough Board members come, or we are lacking a quorum, we will just meet in a group and talk But, dont let that stop you from talking to me before that.About me...I am always open to your ideas and opinions. Phone calls after 530 pm EST are best, but the answering machine is always working. I am a nightowl and am not bothered by calls after 11 pm. To give some members a laugh, "wrong is wonderful," but "demand sweetly," Diane Bauman, APC member, author, etc.. Think about that. Another is "we are on an expedition into great expectations," Bev Poplar after GarveysExpedition Publishing was chosen to do the Review. Ill cover this in future columns.In closing, this is YOUR Qub. I am an APC member who would like to see the BEST for this Qub, this breed and the membership. YOU have responsibilities to this Qub. One of them is your involvement on the level that you can do. Please give of yourself. If a few interested Pom people gave 15-30 minutes a month to work for this Qub, that totals out to many hours in the end and a much better organization in which to have pride. I am proud of my Poms. I am proud of my efforts that have been put into this Qub. I dont expect you to be like me, each of us is different But please help out anyway you can, it will be greatly appreciated.Sincerely,Corresponding Secretory ReportBy Audrey RobertsThis is the last time Ill write you this report.

There has been a lot of things taken place since I started this article. We have had some of the most bitter weather the Northwest has ever seen. The first white Christmas in 50 years. Hope this makes the March issue and Ill try to keep this up a little better, no article every two months though probably about every 4 months.Its really hard to feel like a Web- foot when we havent seen any wet stuff for some time. Its like summer as I start to write this report. October 1st, and its 83 degrees.It is hard to report on everything if people dont tell me what theyve done. I did hear that Tom and Carol Gillespie finished their two home breeds at Tualatin K.C. in July, congratulations Tom and Carol. Its always a pleasure to finish a dog you have bred.I was not at the Seattle K.C. show and have no idea what happened there. After looking up in the different catalogs I have for some of the shows in August and September the CPC members did not do much. We are still having majors at almost all the shows. I have a feeling our points are sure to go up in 1991.The Parent Club has granted The Columbia Pomeranian Club the National Specialty in July of 1992. It will be held at Brush Prairie, Washington. The CPC hosted the national in 1986 and it was such fun. Were hoping ya all Texas Drawl come. Big plans are underway.NATURAL STATEPOMERANIANFANCIERS. INC. BENTON. ARKANSASBv Brenda TurnerOn January 13, 1991, a new Pomeranian breed club was established by charter members of the Natural State Pomeranian Fanciers, Inc., of Benton, Arkansas.Many charter members have owned, bred and exhibited Poms for years and they were joined by novices interested in the breed.The club members are dedicated to encouraging and promoting quality Pomeranians for companionship, conformation and obedience showing. They plan to work toward advancement of the breed through education and exhibition.Club officers are Armetha Reynolds, President Peggy Geyer, Vice-President Phyllis Fulmer, Secretary and Zora Bowman, Treasurer.The first order of business was to plan a fun match for Sunday, June 9th at 6pm in the banquet room of the Pine Bluff Convention Center. The fun match will be a part of the circuit of Arkansas shows held that weekend in Springdale, Fort Smith and Pine Bluff.A Pom rescue committee was established and several fund raising projects were planned.The raffle of a beautiful Pom silhouette quilt will be the first major fund raiser for the group. The drawing for the quilt will be held at the match.For more information on the club, the match or the quilt raffle, contact Phyllis Fulmer, 2112 W.

You may not be aware of other ways many of our Pomeranian obedience exhibitors compete for fun and recognition.RATING SYSTEMSJust as there are rating systems for ranking the top conformation dogs, so there are various rating systems for comparing and recognizing top performing obedience dogs. Many breed clubs have their own rating and award systems for example, Gazehound magazine ranks all sighthounds. The two best known all-breed rating systems are the Shuman System and the Delaney System. The latest yearly results 1983 for the Pomeranian were published in the January Review.According to the Shuman System in 1983 no Poms ranked in the Top Ten Toys. The Top Toys did include 8 Papillons, 1 Yorkshire Terrier and 1 Pekingese. Except for breeds like Shelties and Goldens, which dominate obedience, only the top four are listed in each breed under this system.Via the Delaney System, again no Poms appeared in the Top Ten. However, the Top Ten Toys were represented by 9 Paps and 1 Chihuahua.The difference in breed platings shows how different each system is in the way they are organized. The Shuman System considers only Open and Utility dogs and awards points based on qualifying scores. The Delaney System awards points for High in Trial and class placing dogs, regardless of score. Novice dogs are included.The disadvantage of both of these systems is that they reward the dog that is shown many times. So theexhibitor with an excellent dog but limited funds who gets his 3 legs and goes home has little hope of placing in these rating systems.Considering that Toy Poodles are top winners in obedience, you might wonder that there are no Toy Poodles in the Top Ten. That is because in obedience all Poodle varieties are considered part of the Non-Sporting Group.NON-AKC COMPETITIVE EVENTS - GainesThe Gaines Regionals and the Gaines Classic Obedience Competitions are the "World Series" of obedience. There are 3 Regionals and one Classic each year. They are sponsored by Gaines Dog Food in conjunction with mini Obedience Association, the originators of the Classic.A Regional is a two day event of three shows two shows on Saturday, the Red Show and White Show, while the Blue Show is held on Sunday. An exhibitor must compete in all three shows for which a single entry fee of 40.00 is charged, Entries are limited and the dog must qualify. There are three divisionsNovice - a dog must have his CD but not more than two legs toward the CDX. The CD must have been earned with three scores averaging 193 or betterOpen - the dog must have a confirmed CDX but not have completed the UD. The dog must have at least 3 scores of 193.Super Dog - must have a UD with three scores averaging 193 or better in Open B, three scores of 193 or better in Utility, or be an OTCh.When competing in a Gaines event, all scores are counted and averaged for the three shows. While a NQ" or "bust" in Novice or Open will probably eliminate an exhibitor from contention, Super dogs compete in both Open and Utility so an NQ score might be significant.In each division, the top ten placing dogs are recognized with rosettes, cash and trophies. In addition the first place dogs in Novice and Open and the first three places in Super dog receive round-trip air fare for themselves and their dogs to that years Classic competition.While the AKC regulations for obedience are fol24MarchApril 1991 Pomeranian KSWQSMmi-jo PoMEmLimProudly introducing litter mates "Spec and Autumn"An-Jo Dancin Autumn SpectrumAn-Jo Dancing Fire x Ch.

Practice or warm-up rings are provided. The exhibitor is handed a card as he leaves the ring with his score on it Simultaneously the score is displayed for the audience. The idea of run-offs being a full heel free pattern, done individually and scored, came from these competitions and has now been adopted by the AKC.WORLD SERIES OF DOGOBEDIENCE TOURNAMENTThe Detroit-Windsor Dog Obedience Association sponsors this non-AKC event. Exhibitors enter under AKC or CKC rules depending on which country the title was earned. In Top Dog competition, the country selected applies to both Open and Utility classes. The 193 average is again a pre-requisite. The 10 dogs earning the highest average scores in each division receive engraved awards and cash prizes.These trials attract the creme de la creme of obedience exhibitors. It is considered an honor to be asked to judge or steward. Do try to get to one, Youll see some absolutely breath taking performances.DOG WORLD AWARDS"Dog World" magazine sponsors two distinct categories of awards for those enjoying the sport of canines.The "Award for outstanding service" may be given by a club who wishes to honor a hard-working club member. This award, only one per year, may be given by any dog club - breed, obedience, field or tracking.The "Award of Canine Distinction" is the one that is the most talked about in obedience circles. To earn this honor a dog and handler must either receive scores of not less than 195 in three consecutive trials or win all three obedience degrees - CD, CDX, UD - within a period of nine months from the first class, either in Canada or America.UNITED KENNEL CLUBNo, not the kennel club from England but the other registry in the United States. Obedience has not been around very long in the UKC - since 1979. Their regulations were revised January 1, 1985 and now includes Utility. Rules are similar to the AKC but there are differences. For instance, when competing for a title you must present your dogs original registration certificate to the entry taker. At the obedience trial, obedience classes are held before conformation. When the trial begins the first class is Utility, then Open B, Open A and on downward. While waiting your turn, you can practice on the grounds, although not in a ring. Qualifying score is 170 out of 200 with the old 50 but 2 of your 3 legs can be earned under the same judge. Titles when received are written preceding the dogs name with a "U"before them, The UKC is a working dog registry and feels the title is as important as the dogs name.U-CD. Thirty-five points are allowed for the "honoring exercise". This exercise is a long down - owner in a different part of the ring - while another dog is brought into the ring and does the heel on lead and figure eight. The honoring dog is then scored and leaves the ring. The working dog continues with the stand for exam, heel free and recall over the high jump. Yes, you read correctly ... recall or the high jump, but understand, UKC dogs jump their height at the shoulder or even less if your dog measures 9 12 inches, he jumps 8 inches. Group exercise follows and is the one minute sit.U-CDX. Guess what The honoring is now done with the handler out of sight, but within the same time span. Heeling off lead is different too, as a steward is used as a distraction. The purpose of this exercise is to resemble real-life walking a dog on a public street. The steward does not talk nor block the path of the dog. The steward is just walking by. Drop on recall, different Yes. When you down the dog, the judge indicates to the steward that is standing nearest to you to walk toward the dog. When the steward passes the dog, you call the dog to you. Retrieve on flat, retrieve over the high jump are as the AKC, except for the height of the jump. Broad jump however, is twice the shoulder height of the dog with a minimum of 16 inches. Group exercise is a three minute out of sight sit.U-UD. It begins with Group signal and heeling. Sounds like a team recall but it is not. The handler and dog do the heeling and signal while other dogs maximum of 5 are honoring with their handler in the ring. Scent discrimination is only on metal with five articles. Directed "marked" retrieve is three white gloves but numbers 1 and 3 are only twenty feet away from you. The judge rotates the glove order, i.e. dog 1 - glove 1, dog 2 -glove 2, etc. Directed "signal" retrieve is where you send your dog out, stop him halfway, have him turn and sit and then have him retrieve either glove 1,2 or 3. Think seriously about this and glove 2. Consecutive recalls are next - one with a drop and one without. Directed jumping is last and is the same as AKC.FOREIGN TITLESCanada - For many people, Canada is just a quick trip away, so the opportunity to add a foreign obedience title is relatively easy. Also, those long, flowing Rosettes are extremely eye-catching.A thorough explanation of "how to register" a dog for Canadian shows was given in the May 85 AKC Gazette. So if you are serious, read that article or write to the CKC.The regulations are about the same that we are used to with the AKC. However, jump heights for all breeds are shoulder height. Run-offs are still done together.26 MarchApril 1991 Pomeranian LUV-M-POMSPiif A 4NwaVJ8N^"x.5\v-feBEST OFBREED RIO HOHDO3wRtf_ _ ___Luv-N-Poms would like to introduce our first champion, Joarts Golddust. "Dusty" is a well linebred, true orange dog from the famous Sunray line of over 65 champions. He has far exceeded our expectations by producing many show prospect puppies with a lot of coat factor.

Differences that you need to be aware of in Novice showing 1 the stand for exam is done on lead 2 if your dog has a CD title from the U.S., you must enter Novice "B" 3 the group exercises may be held after a section minimum of 6 dogs or maximum of 15, or at the end of class 4 if you are the only dog entered in your class and you qualify, you still get your leg.A thorough reading of the regulations is extremely important because of slight differences. You can obtain yours from the CKC, 2150 Bloor St, Toronto, Ontario M6S 4V7.Bermuda - How does a nice vacation on an island with 4 obedience trials in a lovely garden sound to you Are you off and running Caution In Bermuda your dog does not stay with you. He stays in the show kennels provided. But showing in Bermuda is filled with hospitality. Your dog is well cared for and so are you Exhibiting there is a delightful experience. The dogs in advanced classes are judged in order of size. They start with the largest breed and work their way downward to the smallest. This means two things First, the stewards dont have to run around all the time changing the jump heights, by the way, dogs in Bermudan trials jump their shoulder height, secondly, you dont have to be afraid of the big Rottie rolling over on your dog on the stays. The Rottie is far away from you.Bermuda is very health conscious, they want absolute proof that your dogs have been immunized against rabies and parvo. Health certificates and import permits are extremely important but are easily obtained from your own vet and also from the Bermudan show vets. Again, close scrutiny of the rule book is necessary, but it is mostly as we know it. For more information contact The Dog Training Club of Bermuda, POB 1406, Hamilton 5, Bermuda.

HEELING FOOTWORKby Mqriqn Lazzcrqreprinted from the Jan 85 ReviewWhen I run into any sort of heeling problems, the first thing I look at is my own footwork. I have found that my Poms work better if I walk the same way, with the same type of turns and halts every time. Good footwork can help cue your dog when you turn, change pace, halt and especially on the figure eightThe first thing to look at is the size and speed of your steps. As there is not too much you can do about your shoe size, you can adapt your steps to fit your dog. Remember though, this does not mean to slow up. You keep your normal pace. Just reduce the size of your steps. Same advice on the change of pace. Watch your feet Change pace accordingly but keep your footsteps the same size.Lagging on the turns, especially28 MarchApril 1991 Pomeranianthe about turns is usually due to poor footwork also. However, in this case it is the amount of steps taken on the turn as well as the size of steps. Toy dogs do not work well on the pivot turns. They need extra time to get their little bodies around our big ones. Because it is against AKC rules to slow up and wait for your dog or adapt your pace, you must make up that extra time by taking more steps. I take up to four steps on the about turn which cues my dog to the turn, two steps to make my turn, and one step coming out of the turn which again cues my dog to straight heeling once again. This can also help any wide heeling problems.Footwork is equally important on the figure 8, especially on the outside post dog is on the outside. In order for your Pom to keep up you must take double the steps you took on the outside post. This is kind of tricky to do as you must not break your starting pace. Any slowing up or choppyheeling will be points off for adapting your pace or lack of natural smoothness. It will also throw your dog off his pattern resulting in wide circles or lagging. All this is done by changing the size of your footsteps. Small steps on the outside turns and larger ones on the inside turn. Progressions from large to small steps and small to large ones are done in the middle section of the figure 8. And speaking of those posts, try to hug them as closely as possible without touching. The smaller your circles are, the smaller the distance your Pom must travel. It helps to practice the figure 8 by yourself first to master your footsteps and then add your dog. A good figure 8 does not come over night.Of course this wont be the ultimate answer to all your heeling problems but its still worth thinking about.

Retirement is right around the comer. Ive had a good time in dogs, with dogs.Ive had dogs since I was a child, but Poms only in the last 14 years.About five years ago my daughter, Vanessa, made an interesting statement when I returned home from showing a Pom. It went something like this "when you put the championship title on that dog, youll dump him." I was taken aback, but she was correct. I gave a lot of special attention to training and showing dogs, and once they were finished, it could almost be said they were forgotten. They really were not, but the type of attention paid to them changed. The Poms even agreed. When the crates and show gear came out, they got excited. Each hoped they would be the one to go in the crate. There had to be something more. There had to be something the dogs and I could do after they were finished.I watched obedience for awhile, but nobody came out and offered anything. I read all that I could, especially what was in the Review. I didnt want to make any long distance calls. I kept hoping someone would just turn up at my door and show me where to go and how to do things. Margaret McKee had an ad in the Review with her phone number. I made the call. We talked for awhile and shegave me Brenda Hutton and Mary Vickers phone numbers. Eventually, I called Brenda. I got excited about this obedience thing, but again stopped.One of the reasons why I would get excited and stop is because there was no one doing obedience where I lived. To get to a training class it was 100 miles one way to New Orleans or Baton Rouge. The few classes I saw in the area did well with German Shepherds jerking them around the ring. I didnt think this was how I wanted to train MY Poms.I really liked what I saw with obedience trained dogs. I liked the teamwork side of if I wanted to train, but there was no one near to train with. I saw no way it could be done.One day my phone rang. The caller said "this is Mary Vickers. Why havent you called me" I told her my problems. Leave it to Mary to come up with an idea of training by long distance. We started with phone calls and got to sending video tapes back and forth. It took her more than a year, but somehow or other shefound me a group of people to train with. I finally entered my first obedience match, then another and yet another. I kept thinking I was doing poorly, but Mary who wasnt even there knew I was putting myself down. At that point I still did not know how to evaluate myself.I really wanted to put a Pom in the ring. I kept feeling that it was now or never. I knew if I did not put somebody in soon, I may never do it. I rushed Daisy and her score proves it. Although, I started with Daisy, I really wanted to train Tanner. I knew Tanner could go on and do advance work. Mary suggested going to Diane Baumans camp that was to be held in Florida. It was going to be an expensive and long trip, but her methods suited me. As I had an opportunity to train with a "master," I decided why not I went to camp.Once there I became addicted. Five days were too few to learn eveiything I needed. I learned a lotThe Baltimore Specialty was a few months down the line. I really wanted to go I was afraid that Tanner was not ready. Even when I got there I was still thinking I was not going to put her in the ring, unless she could do better than score 185 points.Mary watched me work Tanner.

Once again, Mary was right. My score was 192.5 and was low because I bumped into Tanner on a left turn.Two days later at Upper Marlboro Kennel Club, Mary turned to me and said "go and warm up for run-off." What this means is that there is a possibility that I may be tied with another dogowner team for one the placements. She had told me about this many times before. I seriously understood what it meant and began to warm up. Mary was right. Mary was more than right Tanner and I won the run-off. We took first place with a score of 195 and beat 25 other novice "A" dogs, just 5 points short of that perfect 200 scoreDaisy will be going into the ring to get her third leg in January. Tanner has to wait until she coats up. I do not like showing a bitch who is out of coat, if I can help it In 1991, Tanner will also be in open. Mary, I finally understood that you can teach a novice dog the open drop-on-recall.I will be going to camp again. I must learn about the utility obedience level. Camp is the only place where I really have contact with a large number of obedience people. There is still no one nearby to train with. I can dream about getting a 200 score. Remember, I am a competitor at heart, I still spend most of my time at the conformation ring. Luckily, my conformation friends and fellow breeders support my obedience activities. Besides Mary, they give me the most support.The best to come out of all of this, is that my Poms truly enjoy training, even when I am not doing the right thing. I understand my dogs much better now. I appreciate a dog for its outer beauty, but I appreciate even more their personality. Obedience training has given me more insight into what is under their coat I understand my dogsmuch batter now.

I belong to Ann Cannon and am the official greeter here at Annons. You see I live in the kitchen and one of my many duties is to meet all humans who enter and wait sometimes very patiently to be picked up and loved. Another big job I have is to ride herd on all the kitchen dogs and make sure they mind their manners.I get to meet many different people. Most people who come here spend time visiting, especially if they are beginners to breeding or showing Poms. When Annons Pomeranians first started, many people helped Ann by telling of their experiences with Poms and giving advise. Ann believes in giving back what she is given.There arent too many Poms in the kitchen. Sometimes there are a lot. It all depends on whether Ann is going to shows or not. All poms who are showing stay here, even those who may be going in a few months. They get table training, grooming, and lots of human attention. I get to tell them all about shows, what to expect and how they should behave there. These young ones now a days have no mannersThere isnt any part of my job that I dont like. Well, Ann did bring in a lot of birds and I refuse to have anything to do with them They might be pretty to look at, and some like the canaries have a very sharpsong, but they are mindless creatures. Besides they are up in cages high above my head. They have names like show dogs. There are a Blue and Gold Macaw, Umbrella Cockatoo, Eclectus, Blue Front Amazon, Sun Conures, and then Finches and Parakeets. Ann sometimes brings her favorite down here to the kitchen. Her favorite is Max. Max sat on the chair the other day and we had a good long talk. Max said she is a girl and she is a Yellow Nape Amazon. Max is pretty neat She even goes to dog shows with Ann Lucky birdI dont miss going to shows. I had my time in the sun so to speak. Believe me it was fun. I attracted much attention. Being black and tan caused a big ruckus. I was the second or third black and tan in the country to finish after a real long time. I know that my grandpa, Tar-Baby, Ch. Lenniss Tar Baby Of Great Elms was the first to get his championship.One of the best things about showing was going to live with Marlene and Bert Halsey. Talk about being treated well. They had three of us Scamp Ch. Petersons Scamp of Len- nis, ROM kids down there at different times. Lil Love Ch. Annons Lil Love from Scamp and I used to compare notes. I always wanted to go back to Marlenes. Not to live mind you, just to visit. I mean, I was the first champion for Annons. That gives me very special privileges, like being the official greeter, so I prefer being at home.Us Scamp kids were an impressive group. We have had an effect on the breed. Besides us three, he produced several more champions. Eight I think and Huggys obedience titles. Hugs was here all last week, still preening over his UD. He has a right to be proud, but we are all capable of it He just had Mary Vickers as an owner who was interested in doing obedience.Speck Ch. Annons Speck Of Scamp is in the back of the house, waiting for the next girl to turn up. Kenny Ch. Annons Sir Kennor, ROM Specks litter brother, by what I hear around the kitchen table, is out in West Virginia with Evelyn Blake. He is doing very well in all respects.There is one thing I can say about the Scamp boys and their sons, theyM'" m i 3E1 Ann Cannonwith a promising puppyPomeranian SJSWUSM MarchApril 1991 35do know how to treat a girl right when the time is proper. I think though, the best stud around here was Mikey. Maybe it was because he placed in so many groups, and that gave him such a man of the world attitude but he was good. Im almost sure he produced seven champions and one obedience titlist. I miss him a lot.Besides being my half-brother, he was my friend.His son Petey Ch. Annons Repeat Performance takes after him. Petey is black and tan like me.Oh I know, see that picture on the wall of two dogs on a table and all those people Please get it down. Heres more Scamp kids. This is Bandit Ch. Cedarviews S. Bandit Of Annon and Dyna Ch. Annons Lil Bit Of Dynamite when they went winners dog and bitch at Westminster years back. Bandit is handled by his owner Joyce Fritz. Doesnt his rich mahogany red sable color show up nicely on that white suit Thats Dynas owner, Diane Ward beaming so happily.So many people thought Bandit was a chocolate, sometimes color in Poms can be so confusing. Ann likes the different colors, so she knows all about them. I know there has been every color of Pom in the kennel at one time or another. Right now there are 3 blacks, 9 black and tans, 2 beavers, 1 chocolate and tan, 2 chocolates, 3 creams, 2 cream sables, 3 partis, 3 reds, 1 red sable almost like Bandit a white and a few token oranges or orange sables. Some years you couldnt find an orange show Pom here if you tried. You couldnt even convince Ann to breed for that color. But she has bred and finished ten orange or orange sable Poms. Intotal, she has bred 21 champions, and there are many more who are finished out of them. The most impressive thing, especially for a color breeder, is that she has finished or pointed a Pom in all but two colors.Ann likes color breeding, she was lucky that when she started there were still some long-time color breeders around who shared their experiences with her. People from the kennels of Pashdohls, Artie, DeBurgers, and Paragons to name a few. Not only did they give her tips about colors, but breeding in general. There are things they told her that she keeps doing today. Like, never double up on a fault no matter how good the pedigree looks. Color in Poms is meaningless if you do not have proper structure and soundness.Ann flips over parti colored poms. Before they came back in style, she was trying to breed them. Some ladies who lived up in the mountains told her they had "Spotted Poms." It turned out they were perfectly marked partis. Ann took one,Jodie, who came from many generations of partis.Every time Ann bred her to a parti stud, of course,Jodie threw only solids or sables.How many times have I heard Ann say "Mendels pea theory should be put in the garden to grow peas, not Poms." Apparently you have to know the law to know what you CAN get, but that does not mean you will get it. Especially sincePoms only have a few babies at a time. She was very excited when she got a show quality girl that she named Comet Ch. Annons Come To The Parti. Comet was finished and owned by Pat Foley Kathy Hartz. As always Ann is still trying for another oneIt is not only the partis, but the other colors that excite her. What kennel today has line-bred blacks, or chocolates like the old days Or even line-bred black and tans If someone is breeding color, they have a very slow time of it. They must create their own gene pool to breed from, and there is little market for pets.Whatever happened to wolf sable Ann firmly believes that it is a lost gene. She is off and running when she hears someone has one. Each time she has been disappointed to find a cream sable, or an orange sable. Too many people do not know color. There are even people out there who say "he was bom a wolf sable, so that is what he must be," but you cant pick him out in a crowd of orange Poms. It is the same with many creams, they may be bom a cream, but if the adult coat proves to be orange then it is an orange, not a cream.Talking about creams, Ann has Coyote Ch. Tomhos Alabaster Coyote from Tom- mi Hooban here. He is a cream and a very nicely put together one at thatJust look at all those puppies over there. It is so nice to have the puppies so close. The kitchen opens out into the family room and the pups almost look like they are with us. There is only a plexiglass divider separating us. I can sit here on my mg and watch their antics. Watching is about all I do. Ill be 13 years youngi 2Ch. Annons Dandie Kit Katthe recessive maleCh. Cedarviews S.

I do not want to have too much to do with the younger set. Not that young anywaysYou came here for a tour and I am not minding my manners Do you know how to do the "Pom shuffle" To get through the puppies you never pick up your feet as you normally do when walking, you just shuffle them along. Ann says she lives "in the worlds largest doghouse." There are Poms throughout the house except for two rooms. The "Pom shuffle" is very important.Almost everything is see-through gates, somewhat like the plastic divider. We do have wire crates, if we ever want or need to use them. A unique thing about Annons is that nobody is ever crated. You can see that here with the puppies and it continues throughout the house.After we go through a regular door, there is the back room where most of the adult dogs are kept. Since this entire floor is below ground level and the windows are up by the ceiling, Ann made enclosed "ramps" so we can always go outside whenever we want. Running the ramp is fun and easy to do. The ramps open into the enclosed yards, so we get plenty of exercise. Did you know we have two acres of fenced yards to run and play in"Hi, Kit Kat" Ch. Annons Dandie Kit Kat, "havent seen you in awhile." Kit Kat turned out to be very important to Anns breeding program. Not only does he carry Show- stopper and is orange, but he throws huge coats and recessive colors.That smaller room, off the side is where I would probably be if I were not so special. Ann uses it for the geriatric Poms."Hi Image" Annons Image In Black N Tan, Image went to shows and he is pointed. Ann felt his value was in what he was producing, so he stayed at home. He is the last living son out of Ruth Beams Ch. Great Elms Timstoppers Image. Some of the pups out front are his. "Image, go run the ramp." Watch him go up the ramp. Hell end up in the geriatric yard. Their yard is special. It is the only one that is not connected to the others.The room on our left is the nursery, this is probably where Aim can be found. See, there she is. We dont have crates in here either. There are big pens for each mom and pups. Ann even decorated this room with nursery wallpaper. While we all deliver our puppies in Anns bedroom, we come down here when the pups are 10 days old. It is much closer to the kitchen for food stuff. Ann is always in here picking up and playing with the puppies. It has got something to do with socialization and making sure they are off to a good start in life.You need to go outside to see the yards, but we have to do the "Pom Shuffle" back to the kitchen and go out the kitchen door. It would be very nice if you carried me. A lot easier getting through to the kitchen and I do not DO the kitchen steps.Of course you can let the kitchen dogs outside with us. They will run up the steps into the kitchen yard. We get much exercise from climbing the steps beside the yard. Ann feels very strongly that Poms should have the same movement as any working, herding of sporting dog. We might be little but that is no excuse for faulty fronts or rears. Type, proper structure and soundness have been Anns goalssince the beginning, no matter what color the Poms coat may be. Even when she has dogs here from other owners to take to the shows, she sticks to her beliefs.Isnt this a great place to just sit and play with the dogs or even groom them You get a good view of the property from here. There is over 20 odd acres, over there is Anns RV, it is her pride and joy. I used to think it was a big monster, until I realized that it was a moving home that went to dog shows. When you leave be careful with that RV. I can see how large it is, but Ive heard that it has 33 feet Guess you have to do the "Pom shuffle" around it tooWell, it is past my nap time. If you dont mind, I think Ill lie down in the sunshine. Dont worry about taking me inside. Ann will be out shortly to check on us. She always does.Im so glad you came, I always enjoy a visitor. Well talk some more next time. Im feeling tired now. Hope you had a good time.

HuttonThis column begins with some unfortunate news. There will NOT be obedience at the 1991 Summer Specialty in Oklahoma this May after all. After receiving the trophy solicitation and noting obedience was not mentioned anywhere, the show chairman was contacted. The Sooner Pom Club sent their show plans to AKC last September not knowing the APC had been approved for obedience by the time they found out it was too late to include obedience. At this writing I do not know when or where the APC will have its first obedience trial, but I will pass on the news when available. There are some efforts to try to put on a separate trial sometime in late 1991 show plans must be submitted six months prior to trial, but at this time plans are incomplete. If you think you might not be on a mailing list to receive information when it is available, send your name and address to me. Ill be sure you get a premium list when ready.Now for some really GOOD NEWS. Roz Goltz and Ch. Penrus Sugar Plum Fairy UD breeder Rosalind Goltz Jessie Young, by Ch. Jabils Pinto Hi- Tone CD x Penru Prima Ballerina OJabil CDX have earned another 2 points toward that ever-elusive OTCH title with a 196.0 and 1st place at Trap Falls KC under J.S. Glazman from the Open B class. Theyve also earned several other placements from both Open B and Utility B. My calculations show them with a total of 11 OTCH points to date. Along the way theyve amassed a record which make Roz and Sugar the Top Obedience Pom in 1990 in the APC Congrats, CongratsNever one to stand on past laurels however, Roz also reports that she and Sugar made one more trip to Bermuda this fall. On the very first day they earned the third leg toward their Bermuda Utility Dog title. Sugar is now the only Pom to have ever earned three UD titles, and shes a breed Champion too Roz writes, "Im just thrilled and so very proud of her. It was difficult in Bermuda this year with the heat and grass, but she did it in the first trial." CONGRATULATIONS Roz and Ch. Penrus Sugar Plum Fairy, AmCanBer UDH Were proud and delighted for you as you bask in the glow of these magnificent accomplishments. We know youve worked very hard to make them happen.Recently I had the opportunity to interview BemieBrown. You remember the numerous placements and High In Trial at International Kennel Club of Chicago on Pomirish Twinkle Break CDX breeder Sally Baugniet, sired by Ch. Desirees GE Scooter during 1988 and 1989. As I was talking Poms at a local breed show, this man in a red nylon jacket just walked up to me and began to stroke and talk to my dog as I held her in my arms. "How dare he touch this dog without asking permission" I thought As quickly as he approached, he left, never acknowledging me at all. It occurred to me that this man must have some affinity for Poms to be so bold, and as I watched him, his face began to look familiar its published every month in Front and Finish. Knowing Bemie Brown had gone HIT the previous day at the obedience trial, and that he was entered in the trial at this show, it became apparent who he was. Without further delay I approached him and introduced myself.It is true that Twink had become the great Couch Potato, only rarely accompanying Bemie to trials, and then usually as a lap wanner. While expressing great affection, Bemie admits that training Twink was quite the challenge. In fact, he claims it took him seven months to train the dog to retrieve Twink never did like obedience very much, so he is now retired, never to earn a UD. But even while Bemie was earning his 94th HIT on his Golden that day, he expressed his desire to train another Pom soon. He does agree with Diane Bauman in the opinion that a serious competitive Pom must be as large as possible, very sturdy and have the appropriate attitude and inclination to hold up to the competitive situations of stress and traveling.MORE NEWS FROM UTILITYThe last issue reported that LaRae Brown and Laraes Midee CDX breeder Melody Jackson had earned their first two UD legs, both with 1st placements. Well, they made it leg 3 with another 1st on August 12th with a 189.0 at South Bay Kennel Qub they followed it with a 188.0 and a 2nd place later that month at Silver Bay Kennel Qub of San Diego. A BIG CONGRATULATIONS to themAlso the last issue included news of the first two legs on a UD earned by Kenneth and Kay Ann Lowe on Im A Candy Angel Doll CDX breeder Lynda Sondag.

Beck, Jr. They followed the next weekend with a195.5 and 1st place again in Open A at Wichita DTC under G.W. Fletchall.

Congratulations, TrilvieNEWS FROM NOVICE BIm particularly proud to announce APC member Ruth Ellis has earned another of her many CDs, this time on BKs Sunshine Samantha breederco-owner Brenda K. Hutton out of Can. OTCHTD BKs Sir Spunky CDXTD, U-UD, TT x BKs Sunshine Supergirl AmCanU-CD, TT.

Ruth describes their experience in the ring as being somewhat absurd. It seems Sam likes to heel about a foot and a half ahead of her while looking back to say "Hurry up, Mom," then scooting into heel position on the halt. I hate to tell you Ruth, but she comes by that trait very honestly via her Dad. She also likes to zoom in on the recall and bounce off her legs, sometimes landing in the perfect sit, sometimes on RUTHS RIGHT SIDE. Oh well, its only points off, right, Ruth Good job.Victoria Leitner in Illinois has earned another CD, this time on Ch. Couibettes Fudge It Budget breederowner out of Ch.

Nice work Gail.Some time ago, a very nice lady, Barbara Mc- Clatchey from Wheaton, Illinois contacted me to inquire about an obedience teacher in her area. Weve spoken several times by phone now and shes written a couple of times. Just before Christmas she called me to give me the good news she and Dan Dees Ibu An- jing breeder Verla Dagel have earned their Companion Dog title. She related their accomplishments as follows 1124 a 193.5 and 2nd place at Steelcity KC, 1125 another 193.5 and 2nd place at Lake Shore KC, 122 a 192.5 at Western Waukesha County TC also got a trophy for H.S. Pom in Novice A, and a 190.0 and 2nd place again on 1217 at KC of Yorkville under Barbara Goodman.

"Boy, that Golden in 1st sure did look out of place," she said. Then she sent me a picture of the 3 Poms, thanks very much, Barb. Im still chuckling Nice job, and I sure hope your husband gets better so he can accompany you to your next meets in Open.Co-owners Deborah Winkel and Doreen Fernandez and Dainti Gaulkes Cameo breeder Duane Gaulke by Ch. Stubers Ruppert of Norsk Hill x Dainti Lady Cassandra did a very nice job on the way to their Companion Dog title. Their first outing was a 193.0 and 2nd place at Indianhead Kennel Qub, followed by a 191.0 and 1st at the Pomeranian Club ofGreater Des Moines, a 196.5 and 2nd place under Mrs. N.E.

Schreiner. Congrats to Samantha1990 was a very good year for Poms in obedience. We had the most Utility Dog titles published in one year, a total of 6. And two of them went to the same person, Kay Lowe. First, her Im A Candy Angel Doll finished all her titles within one year, which earned them a Dog World Award of Canine Distinction. Her title was published in August, just one month after the UD was published on her Minute Of Whispering Pines. And, as reported earlier, one of our long time favorites, Gladys Dykstra, has just had published a new CDX on Dykstras Cupid.Are you still with me Ive got a hypothetical question to pose. Exhibitor X is at the local Obedience Trial showing her Pom in advanced level classes. Exhibitor X is also entered in Novice with a second dog, a medium sized long coated breed. After doing a very nice job with the Pom figures they earned a 197-198 they are shocked to receive their score. The judge has docked them 5 points for "handler adjusting to the dog." Upon further questioning the judge states that heshe observed Exhibitor X in the ring with the laiger dog, that the exhibitor took larger steps with that dog than with the Pom, heeled at a faster pace than with the Pom, and was observed when leaving the Pom on the sitstay during the recall exercise to take larger steps when walking away than were taken during the heeling. What comments lets keep it printable, please do we have about this judgeAs always, call me and youll probably get the answering machine, but I sure love hearing from all of you. Happy heeling and terrific tracking to you all this year.Readers wishing to contact the author may write to Brenda Hutton, 102 Tudor Lane, Lansing, MI 48906 or call her at 517 485-5183.
