The Specialty was w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-1You, the members, said you wanted a Specialty to be special. To borrow one phrase that I heard "our Specialty should be a celebration of the Pom." It was.It could not have happened without YOU. So many of you gave so much of yourselves to make it work. You should be proud of what you accomplished. I think the APC may have found another "breed" of Pom person. This "new breed" is the person who comes to the Specialty to work, to have fun while working, and incidentally show a dogThis Specialty broke all past records. The entry of 200 dogs for a grand total of 297, is one new record that is easily seen. Going to a 2 day event, introducing Veterans Sweepstakes Obedience Classes is something I cannot take credit for as plans for this were put forth by the previous Board Officers. It rounded out this celebration.The catalog another record breaker. 84 pages big No, it didnt take 84 pages to record all the entries. It was this large because of YOUR support in taking out ads. YOU did it as individuals and YOU did it as clubs to cover the cost of printing this keepsake.The trophy fund the second time in recent years that the trophy fund secured donations that paid for the actual trophies and left money over to cover the cost of the rosettes and such. YOU did it here alsoI am now going to confirm a rumor that you might have heard. This Specialty also goes on record as the one to make the most money. Plagued by a long record of thousand dollar losses for each Specialty, this one MADE five-thousand dollars YOU did it This money made goes back to you as it gives the APC better financial footing to promote and protect the Pomeranian breed.There is another record broken by this Specialty. One which has not been stated before and you may have little knowledge about. This is the first Specialty where SO MANY INDIVIDUALS WORKED TOGETHER together as individual members of the APC together as a team to produce this event. In the past it was usually one person who shouldered the entire weight, calling out to one or 2 others for help. For the 1992 Specialty there were more than 25 people who sat down before the event planning for it, and came to NY willing and ready to carry out these plans My hat is off to you. YOU did itThere are a few people that I would like to spotlight right now and say thank you.To Dolly Trauner Dolly took over the reins in late October and accomplished the impossible. Her ability to lead, to ask "why" "what," to find people and place them in strategic jobs, to wring blood out of turnips is a large reason we all are so happy. Thank youTo Dudley and Wanda Roach what a team Coming in again in October, Dudley produced the Premium list, had the catalog ads well in hand when illness caused him to be4 MayJune 1992 Pomeranian 8JSWQSMhospitalized right at the closing date for entries. Of course there was also the computer crash to deal with Wanda steps in to deal with a sick husband, a sick computer and stacks of entries. Most of us were stunned when Dudleys doctor refused to let him fly. All that work, including that glorious catalog, and they had to sit at home and not be part of this event that they poured so much of themselves into. This is one of those times when these two little words seem so insufficient, but Dudley Wanda, thank youThe following people had some impact on us in NY. You should know about them.First is Patricia Marinaceio. Pat is not an APC member. Her breed is Afghans. She was the winner of our airline ticket raffle. Pat thought about it and with the graciousness that only a winner knows, she turned back the prize to the APC. In her name a donation has been made to the Skin Disease Study and our heartfelt thanks go out to her.Sharon Hicks. Sharon sold the most airline raffle tickets out of all those being sold across the country. In appreciation for her efforts, Sharon was recognized at the APC dinner and has been enrolled in the APCs Hall of Fame.Linda Teresko. You have enjoyed reading Lindas articles in the POM REVIEW. When the 1991 DOG WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA writing competition nominees were made public in January, rumor had it that the POM REVIEW captured 2 nominations Linda Tereskos "BEEBLES PET SHOP" published in the JulyAugust 1991 issue, was one that was nominated. Congrats LindaHappeth Jones, Happie couldnt be at the APC dinner on Sunday night She was sent with our blessings over to the DOG WRITERS AWARDS BANQUET. Throughout our dinner I kept waiting for the phone to ring with a report from Happie. About 15 minutes after we broke up, the call came. Within an hour, a happy Happie waltzed into the Marriott lobby with THE MAXWELL MEDALLION draped from her neck. Her story "THE BITE" published in the MayJune 1991 issue of the Review had won Happie was officially greeted with many hugs, kisses and a bouquet of flowers on behalf of all of us.So here you have it folks A very special Specialty groups of people working on individual levels and team levels to pull this club together the finances not as bad as they have been but there is still room for improvement and the Pomeranian Review, back to being the award winning publication that we all know it is.But dont rest on your laurels Reflect and remember well your win, your accomplishment, but use what got you there to keep going forward. The best is yet to come if you keep working. The Specialty Committee is already planning to do it even better next year.There were mistakes made. There were things that could have been better if done differently. I know one person who really made several mistakes. Me My shoulders are broad enough to accept responsibility for all of them. One that makes me cringe is that again I forgot to appoint someone to "write-up" the Specialty for publication in this issue. Well, you will have to do with the pictures and you know what they say... "a picture is worth a thousand words." If you want to know more ask someone who was there or see the entire Specialty on videotape. I know for me it brings back all those good warm feelings.Ka Lee Pomeranian,vT'3fIt1 V.r fVsxa presentstheir first Pom and first Champion...Ch. Rosewoods Sunmark RosetteCh.

Usually I hear rumors and complaints. Tell me what you want and need and I WILL LISTEN Then tell 11 other board membersRumors When you hear rumors ask yourself1. Who is spreading the rumor2. What is their motivation3. What do they have to gain by perpetuating it4. Is this heresay If so remember the Telephone Game. A phrase is whispered from ear to ear and what is repeated at the end in no way resembles the original phrase. This is the flaw of heresay5. Can I conclude from the information received if this is rumor is it 100 correct If not, dont spread it Let it stop with youRumors alienate us and breakdown communication There are two things that will factionate a club very quickly rendering it ineffectualComplaints I want to hear your complaints Yes, really But if you can possibly take the time beforehand to come up with some constructive corrective measure to deliver with your complaint it would facilitate the resolution greatly Help me help you, lets work together. Strings of complaints wear thin, but bound together with constructive and creative ideas, it creates innovation and resolution.This club is becoming much more innovative. New ideas are contagious and when the gears run smooth it encourages more participation This is beginning to happen. New merging with old and more participation are making the club move forward in the right directionIm not the President so Im not here to give a state of the union message, but the state of the APC is on track, the recession is over, a balanced budget is here and prosperity is around the corner thanks to great efforts by many, many fabulous Pom loversLets Keep On TrackPomeranian 5SM0SW MayJune 1992 7bids available at contract signing time.Sharon Hicks sold the most raffle tickets.92-02-05 Sally Baugniet moved that Sharon Hicks be given a Hall of Fame certificate.

Seconded by Fran Stoll. Motion adopted.February 9,1992 after the show the Board had an informal, informational meeting with Leo Garvey of Expedition Publishing, regarding the Pomeranian Review.Expedition Publishing noteWe requested an unscheduled meeting at the specialty, when on Saturday we learned there had been at least one motion on Friday night to remove us as the publishing house, and Gail as Editor, for the Pomeranian Review 92-01-11. While that motion was defeated 8-3, there were other motions passed that set the stage for our removal at the end of our contract 92-02-04 92-02-10.I returned Sunday afternoon for the meeting. We have not received a copy of the minutes from that meeting, yet I believe there was an official quorum with more than 10 board members present. At least one motion for action was made by the APCat that meeting.We discussed many items including communications, deadlines, and perceived personal conflicts.We conclude that many of the problems resulted from lack of communication, or perceived personal conflicts. We attribute other problems to some board members misunderstanding exactly what we have been hired to do, and what our responsibilities are.We submitted a four page letter that we had been composing since December. We asked for that letter to be included in those minutes, and requested that a copy be filed into the APC archives. This letter was basically a 'Year in Review' no pun intended type of report. It outlined problems that we have had in producing the Pomeranian Review, and problems we have faced with an extremely small number of members, subscribers, advertisers, and board members or club officers. We also outlined the few occasions when we had made mistakes worth mentioning.That letter also offered suggestions for improvement of the Pomeranian Review, and where, in our opinion, the Pomeranian Review needs help. We also restated our position of viewing the APC as a business concern and protecting that concern in our editorial decisions. At a minimum, the letter will keep us from the rumor mill in future years. Future board members will be able to read exactly what has taken place to date, and not have to rely on others memories, or opinions.The meeting lasted nearly three hours, and I believe that most, if not all, walked away satisfied with the results of the meeting.

Bev-Nors Tanyas CrissyJudge's Critique, Puppy Sweepstakes by Jean SchrollWhat a thrill it was to be asked to do the Sweepstakes for the American Pomeranian Club, and to do the first ever Veterans Sweepstakes.It was sad that it had to be because we lost Skip Piazza shortly before this Specialty.There were so many lovely puppies, at least 10 that could have won or been placed in each class. Im proud of you Pom folks. I believe we are getting where we are going. There were really no puppies that could not have won at any given time.My Best in Sweepstakes choice, Heartlands Special Treasure was lovely and I feel will be a big winner. He also went Winners Dog in the Regular Classes the next day. Best of Opposite Sex was also a lovely girl, Tomho Strutting Merri Lee, looking every bit what she is, a girl.Both dogs showed to perfection.I found out Best in Sweeps had only been shown two previous times and was Winners Dog at one of the shows for a 4 point major.I also loved the 9-12 month Puppy Dog class winner, Tynan G.S.T. He was feeling a little under the weather from the trip and could have shown a little better, but that did not detract from his quality.Pinehavens Smooth Sailing, 9-12 month Puppy Bitch winner looked like the other three. A truly matched set, and such a thrill to be able to find enough puppies that look enough alike, to be sure we are headed in the right direction.I felt 2nd, 3rd and 4th in each class were quality in every way, plus many others that could have been 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th. There just werent enough ribbons for all of them. So many will finish easily, and I will watch for them in the coming months to see how they fare.Puppy SweepstakesJudge Ms. Jean Schroll4.A JSBEST IN SWEEPSTAKESHeartlands Special TreasurePeppy Dogs 6-9 months 1st place - Heartlands Special Treasure Dianne Kieffer2nd place - Watts Little Keokis Shylo Dolores Watts3rd place - Great Elms Little Demetrius Dolores Watts4th place - Pomsprings Wild Thing Elizabeth Dupuisrr jBEST IN VETERAN SWEEPSTAKESCh.

My flight was leaving at 700 A.M., or so I thought. Anyway, I arrived in plenty of time. The flight was scheduled to go to Seattle and land there, I presumed to pick up food and coffee, none of which was served on the flight to Seattle, and by the time we get there, Im having caffeine withdrawal symptoms. We were unable to land because Seattle was fogged in, so we flew over the airport for at least an hour, if not more. They finally decided it was hopeless and we were going to have to go back to Portland. I swear the pilot was flying backwards it took so long to make the return trip, and still no coffee We arrived back at Portland two or so hours after we left and landed. We had no information about what the plane was going to do. Finally, we were told after off loading a good size passenger list, that we were going to fly to New York straight from Portland and they were trying to get some food, coffee, and fuel. After a couple of hours they were finally ready to leave with a roughly 40 passengers, on one of the really big planes. There was plenty of space left to nap or do whatever you wanted. Anyway, the crew ended up with a cold lunch, of which mine was one chicken wing and a small cookie.From then on, the flight to New York went as planned, except I was to be in New York at 445 P.M. I had to meet my friend and roommate, Nancy at her airline gate that arrived at 515 P.M. wouldnt you know, they even got there early, Nancy waited for me and found out that I was going to be late 830 P.M. so she decided to go to the hotel and wait for me. At 830 I called the hotel to see if she had arrived and she had, but they wouldnt let her go up to my room until I called, because her name was not on the reservation form. She spent the entire time until I called waiting in the lobby.The next three days went pretty well. I was to judge the sweepstakes classes, and what a nice, glorious experience it was. It was an honor to be asked, and to have such lovely puppies to judge. I shall write another article on this, because this weekend was really Special in many ways and will be unforgettable.We had made arrangements to move into a hotel in New York City for the Westminster Show. After our banquet we got a cab to go downtown. When we got there our hotel was surrounded by firetrucks We waited for over an hour in our cab until the firetrucks left. We then went to check into the hotel, a little leery by now, but at that time the only game in town for us, since we had the reservation since October, 1991. We finally get to the counter to register and there is a person complaining that their key wouldnt fit in their door, so the receptionist gave them another room, and thinking I had not heard this, proceeded to give us THAT room. Not knowing if there were any other rooms available we took it. When we got to the room, of course, the key didnt work and we had to call security to let us in. Wefinally got into our room and started to unpack. At 200 A.M. the desk calls to say Nancy must come and register, well we decided this could wait until later in the morning. Later in the morning came earlier than we planned... someone called the room at 800 A.M. wanting to know something about film, or so Nancy thought, but wasnt sure so she turned the phone over to me. I couldnt understand the man at all and he finally decided I never would understand him, so he hung up.Our plan by this time was to change hotels, if we could. Off to breakfast we went, entering the hotel dining room, we were told there was only breakfast or brunch, and to help ourselves. We did of course, including pouring our own coffee. We never did see the waiter. After serving ourselves, we went up to pay the bill -- 14.00 for a stale roll, a tablespoon of scrambled eggs, 3 slices of bacon and 2 cups of coffee this wasnt for 2, it was per person. Actually the bill came to 14.02 each and the cashier very nicely let us have it for 14.00.Off to Westminster we went. We met some of Nancys friends and they told us they had a room at another hotel and the friends they were supposed to stay with didnt show, so would we like to stay with them We were pleased to do so, but our trials were not over yet. We arrived back at our hotel only to find out the maids had gone on strike and there was no room service. The rooms were not clean at best.We had a lot of luggage, mostly because Nancy hadnt known one suitcase would be sufficient We decided to get a cab to move us, so the doorman calls a cab and asks us where we want to go, we decided it best if he didnt know where we were going, so we told him shopping this is any womans excuse. We were very lucky in that we got a very nice cabbie and we told him we were moving one block and needed help to do so. He was very accomodating and said okay. We get across the street in front of the hotel only to find the city was doing some work in front of the hotel. There was no place for our cab to park and unload. So, I jump out of the cab and ask the fellows if they could move one of the barricades so our cab could get in to unload us, and believe it or not they did. We managed to get unloaded, find a bellboy, and go up to the room Nancys friends had given us a key. We put our stuff in the room and a loud speaker yelled all over the hotel "the fire is out, so everyone can return to their room." While we were moving, the hotel had a fire on the 30th floor and they were sounding the all clear.The return trip to Portland was uneventful and very dull for lack of activity.20 MayJune 1992 Pomeranian 5JBW0BMRodi's Poms would like to introduce..."C-More"is pictured here at 10 months of age winning "Best Toy Puppy" in Group at the Bell Vernon Fun Match on 2992.

There was a stupendous entry of 2500 The lavish show was held in the Queens Suite of the LaGuardia Marriott. It was a most marvelous room filled with priceless antiques and crystal chandeliers. A more breathtaking location could not have been found.There was ample room for all, and you could see perfectly from all angles Spotlights highlighted each entry as they entered the ring. Their names were lit up by 100s of lights. This show put Westminster to shame There were many very influential judges and important potentates in attendance There were very official VIPs from all over the country and most other countries watching the stimulating events of the evening.The most honorable and respected judges, Mr. Don Walker and Mr. Jeff Nokes teamed up to judge this show of shows They were decked out splendidly in tuxedos and flaming pink cumberbuns. The sight of them took my breath away This was the first for me to show under a panel of judges and I feel this made for a more worthy winIn an unprecedented decision by these intellectually superior judges, an Open Bitch took Best In Show Specialty This very young bitch had previously won a National Sweepstakes of over 500 entries. The show world was already buzzing about this exceptional girl All over the fancy, from judges to breeders, and especially by all the jealous exhibitors weve been so deservedly beating Yes this bitch is heads and tails above any of her competitorsThe rest of you may as well stay home and rotI must take a moment to dispel rumors of my bribing judges Come on you tiny minded folks, would I do that Then another rumor I heardwas that my sponsors, the Smarts, were offering BMWs to the judges Come on now you ungrateful losers would we do thatOf course we would Rumor is true It cost my a pretty penny to win that BISS When youve got sponsors like the Smarts its great It only cost us 2500.00 and 2 Beemers. One for each Mr. Nokes and Mr. Walker, Happy Driving But it was well worth it, cuz we won the 1st Annual NTRA National Specialty Oh, what is NTRA That stands for National Tack Rat AssociationHopefully by now youve figured out this is a spoof But it really happened, just as Ive told it, and was a tremendously hysterical, fun, crazy, and profitable event hosted by APC at our Specialty this year. The idea is to bribe, lie, cheat, and claw your way to a win with your Rat squeaky toy on a leash. Ive never had more fun I did all the things Id always wanted to do in the ring and everything not allowed from hanging money out my shirt to stuffing it in judges pockets to stepping on the competition to bad mouthing the competition, and mostly splitting a gut in laughter. It was wonderful therapy and fun for all.This will be an annual event My entry was Shyacres Bugabutt Ratt.

Locport, NY 14094 716 625-8357Pomeranian SJSWOSMMayJune 1992 23by Mqrqqret McKggWe just returned from a wonderful trip to New York for the American Pomeranian Club National Specialty. It was an historic weekend. It was the largest Specialty ever 200 dogs and 297 entries. Which proves the point some of us have been trying to make for years Westminster is no longer the drawing card. Make the Specialty comfortable, fun, convenient, and SPECIAL and the exhibitors will come. The Empire arrangement of 91 was very inconvenient for most exhibitors. This year we were back at the Marriott where the affordable rates gave us attractive, comfortable rooms and a ballroom that was exclusively ours for the duration. Parking was free for APC participants who stayed at the hotel. I really liked having my hotel room right upstairs from the show site since I invariably seem to have underage puppies with me that I want to keep an eye on. And my daughter was very happy to take advantage of the indoor swimming pool.This was the first time weve had a 2 day show, and what a welcome change that was We were able to add more events obedience, veteran sweepstakes and the Tack Box Rat Competition. There was more time for fun and conversation, as well as business. We werent so rushed and frazzled. Board meetings lasted only until midnight instead of til 400 AM The annual meeting did not get short shrift. There was time for anyone to speak who wished to. The raffles and auction added to the fun as well as adding much needed money to APCs coffers.And for the first time in years, the Specialty did not lose money. It showed a profit One reason the show operated in the black is the numerous donations. Several clubs and individuals donated money to cover printing costs. Show Chairman Dolly Trauner and Show Secretary Dudley Roach did not ask for reimbursement of legitimate expenses and of course, gave countless man hours of labor for which we have paid others in the pastThe actual amount of profit is debatable. In her very prompt financial report to the board, Dolly includes as income the profits from the 50-50 raffle, the quilt raffle, the Tack Box Rat Competition, and the auction. This money was raised through the efforts of the Ways Means Committee and should be credited to that committee. I know, it all goes into the APCs account, but it is not only a matter of proper bookkeeping but of giving credit where it is due. The Show Committee pinched pennies, shopped around for the best deal, bargained with the hotel to shave costs, but it didnt show, as it was a QUALITY EVENT.It was a tremendously successful Specialty. The list of people who made contributions, large and small, is very long. Lots of people worked very hard to make this a wonderful weekend. Elizabeth Dupuis solicited enough donations to the trophy fund to fully pay for all the charming trophies and the rosettes. Joel Taylor secured enough ads to pay for the printing of the beautiful catalog. Julie Moreno was Chief Steward. The two Ring Stewards, Jeff Nokes and Don Walker, were outstanding. Working behind the scenes for many months wereMary Vickers and Mike Jones making arrangements with the hotel. Those of you who donated items for the auction and for the hospitality room were generous, and we appreciate it. Patty Griffin was Hospitality Chairman, Sandra White put together the great goodie bags each exhibitor was given. She also handled banquet reservations. In addition to the auction, Lisa Smart organized the hilarious Tack Box Rat Competition and made all those clever ribbons decorated with clockworks for the winners. Bess Roberts assisted by members of the Baltimore Pom Club, manned the Pom Shoppe table which, like the auction table, was out in the hall where they couldnt see the ring. Marie Carlough rounded up the stewards and jumps for obedience. The judges Eleanor Rotman for Obedience, Jean Schroll for Sweeps, and Skip Stanbridge for Breed were pleasant, efficient, and really seemed to enjoy their assignments. Most importantly, Dolly Trauner and Dudley Roach took over the vital jobs of Show Chair and Show Secretary on very short notice, worked very hard, and came through for the APC magnificently. Unfortunately, Dudley landed in the hospital about the time entries closed. Most exhibitors didnt realize it as entries were processed, the catalog printed, and acknowledgements mailed, seemingly without a hitch. But Dudley and Wanda were unable to come to New York to enjoy the fruits of their labors and to hear all the compliments. To all who contributed in any way to this TERRIFIC SPECIALTY, CONGRATULATIONS THANK YOUThe Board is considering the possibility of moving the National or Winter Specialty out of New York and out of February. We frequently hear complaints that New York is too expensive. That is true, but for most of us the Long Island venue is more affordable than Manhattan. Can we do better We are trying to find out. You complain that NY isnt centrally located. The Summer Specialties that move around the country are supposed to meet that need. Even so, they usually dont pull as big an entry as NY, and it is difficult to get a quorum for meetings. You complain about NY traffic and I concur. I hate that traffic in Brooklyn and Queens, to say nothing of ManhattanYou may remember that in 1989 APC members were asked to vote on a By-law change that was advertised as permitting us to move out of New York. In fact it really doesnt do that. We will probably need another By-law change moan. We are still chartered in New York State and are required by NY to hold our annual meeting there. We are inquiring of a lawyer the best way to handle that I should think we can incorporate in all 50 states if we want to.What do you want the Specialty to do for you What kind of site do you want Do you want the show held in a motel Is outside okay Do you want it in a resort area where you can go sightseeing Do you want seminars Would you want to go to 3 days It seems to me we are missing a wonderful opportunity by not holding a seminar of class on health, training or breeding. Okay, raise your hands. Who wants to chair that committeeOne suggestion were considering is the Louisville, KY24 MayJune 1992 Pomeranian SJBWQB'SHawaii's I PomeranianaNDOWfor1991Ch.

We were trying to find ways to continue to improve the quality of the Pomeranian Review as well as improve our service to our readers and advertisers. When APC entered into the contract with Expedition a year ago, we had 2 specific areas we wanted to improve. One was the look, the appearance of the magazine. We wanted clearer print, clear pictures, and fewer typographical errors. Oh those typos That has now been achieved. You now have to search to find typos, instead of finding six per page. The Pom Review looks greatWe also wanted to get the magazine out on time. We made this abundantly clear to Expedition, and they have responded with very prompt mailings. The contract gives the Board the right to delay printing, for example if a Specialty occurs right before a deadline. But Expedition doesnt have that right. So they handle this by adhering strictly to the deadlines. If your ad or article is not in their hands by the 1st, too bad. They dont wait until the deadline passes to start putting the magazine together. It is essentially laid out and ready to roll when the 1st arrives. Now this has been hard for some of us to adapt to. We have, for the entire history of the magazine, been used to deadlines that were flexible. I knew if I mailed my column sometime around the deadline date, it would be included in the next issue. No longer. It must get to New York before the 1st of the month. Im going to try to start thinking that the 25th is the deadline. Maybe that will help you to.It will also help you if your copy is neatly typed. Send good quality pictures. Original prints are best. Leo told us one story of trying to use a picture tom from another publication. Trying to fix that so it would print clearly turned out to be expensive. Be sure to put your name, address, phone number and dogs name on the back of each picture.In order t try to improve communication between Expedition and you, the reader, writer or advertiser, the Board decided to appoint a liaison. I assume this is announced elsewhere in this issue. If you have questions about deadlines, ad costs, or space available, call the liaison. If you have complaints, call the liaison. If you have questions about circulation, when to renew your subscription, or you want to report that your Review didnt arrive, call Brenda Hutton. If you want back issues, call me. Incidentally, an issue becomes a back issue as soon as Expedition has sent out the bulk mailing. All other questions, call the liaison. We want to help you, and were really trying to improve communications.Food for Thought Department When a business decides how to spend its advertising budget, it looks at which media will target the specific audience it wants to reach. Then it decides on how to reach the most people for each dollar spent. When you advertise in a Pom magazine, you are targeting a specific group of people. Are you getting the most for your money The Pomeranian Review has the highest circulation amongst serious breeders and exhibitors, including judges who have specifically asked for it. Yes, the editor of the Pomeranian Review did attend the National Pomeranian Specialty.26 MayJune 1992 PomeranianThe You Cant Win Department Mary Vickers has received the following complaints1. We had to pay a toll to drive from Northern New Jersey to the show site. Mary chuckled when she thought of the over 20 she and I would pay in tolls round-trip.2. Her Review arrived too early HuhAn Actual Hint make your own carpet freshener. Mix 12 cup baking soda and 12 cup cornstarch with 15 drops of oil of rosemary, pennyroyal or citronella. Sprinkle the powder on the carpet, let it sit for at least 15 minutes, then vacuum. This is supposed to repel fleas as well as odors. Since the only carpeting I have is in the upstairs hall, I havent tried this.More food for thought Dont ever undertake a volunteer job for a dog club for the praise or adulation you will receive. The praise will never be enough. Do it for the satisfaction of helping your club, to pay back the sport and breed that have meant so much to you, and for the wonderful feeling of a job well done.I am a lousy correspondent translation I dont write letters but I do love hearing from you.

EdwardsAfter the Pomeranian Review published my last piece on the hidden agendas of some animal activist groups, I received several calls and letters from individuals. They voiced concerns how one might support the fight to place controls animal use in research, and continue to feel that the breeding and exhibiting of dogs is okay.I have had many a sleepless night wondering myself how one could proclaim to be an animal lover and still breed dogs. To help understand just what is going on around ones self you need to have the opportunity to view both sides of any given picture. I hope through the writing of this piece to offer up to all just that.As you may or may not be aware, we as breeders and exhibitors have been targeted for protest by a radical segment of the animal rights movement. I have heard of individuals releasing dogs from their protective crates while on show grounds causing much fear among those exhibiting. We have been advised to travel in packs, if you will, or to purchase locks for our crates. Some manufacturers have begun the marketing of crates with built in lock systems. This is all well and good if they have not made the mistake of making all the locks universal i.e., one key fits all. What totally amazes me is that anyone who would proclaim so loudly to be an animal lover would blatantly endanger an animal by releasing it in unfamiliar surroundingsEach time that you are bombarded with the overwhelming numbers of dogs and cats that are destroyed each year in your local shelters, I am certain that you cringe. Now you can see what effect these statistics would have on your local politician This is one way that the animal activist groups gain ground in their movement. When one can supply in black and white numbers that demand something be done to any individual or group it is certain that steps will be taken. As we as individuals and as a group sit silently back others gain momentum in their fight to control who, when, and where any, if any, breeding will take place. I am certain that all are appalled at the conditions of dogs kept in puppy mills and would like nothing more than to see them shut down. You must be aware that this is the picture that animal activists project of all dogs bred. It would be of no value to their movement should they show a well-maintained kennel with well cared for animals living in clean conditions and bred only when conditions are perfect.We need to take it upon ourselves to begin an education program to offer up another side to what is quickly becoming a one sided debate Through our individual breed clubs as well as our national breed club, we are able to reach out to numerous breeders and pet owners advising them of the potential nonstopping movement. Through our publications we might suggest ways in which our membership might voice its opinions as individuals or as a collective body. Perhaps it would behoove our Board of Directors to draw up a form letter that all might follow to send to his or her legislator in support of our rights to breed and exhibit our dogs.One only need to take a close look at what has happened in this country with the Pro Life versus Pro Choice movements to see just how out of control things might become. History proves that it is close to impossible to change laws once they have been set into play. Do we sit silently by then try to react once it is clear we have lost It is not my desire to dictate your train of thought on the matter but perhaps hit on a nerve that will cause you to react.We need to show the animal activist and Legislators that we are responsible breeders, therefore projecting a positive image to lessen the effects of what is being projected to date. Perhaps as a group, or individuals, we should take a stand for spaying or neutering all dogs to be sold as household pets with no exceptions. Perhaps by policing ourselves we can help prevent others from taking over. If a dog is not sold to a fellow breeder or exhibitor, it is not necessary for it to remain unaltered. Get together with your fellow dog fanciers and discuss ways in which to word written sales contracts to make certain that the dogs you sell are indeed altered. I have found that the threat of a fee to be paid for each pup produced by any dog sold as a pet does encourage one to alter the animal. Seems that hitting one in the pocket these days is the way to get ones attention Often buyers remark that the prices asked for the pups in the Toy Group are high and the added expense of the spaying or neutering is just too much. You might think of lowering the prices asked and inform the buyer that this is being done to help curb the cost of the alteration.No matter what your feelings may be, you owe it to yourself to voice your opinions you must be heard To remain a silent voice in a crowd is a waste of perhaps that one voice that might help change the opinions of others. Make some noise be heard even a loud voice in the woods will fall on the ears of one creature big or small. Think about what is needed to help in the fight for your rights as a breeder and exhibitor and offer suggestions to others be open to new ideas get involvedWhat totally amazes me is that anyone who would proclaim so loudly to be an animal lover would blatantly endanger an animal by releasing it in unfamiliar surroundings28 MayJune 1992 PomeranianVsS8'ATit4 AWARD OF MERIT-AMERICAPOMERANICLUBfc W-.H.

Ive heard many things which made me nervous about conformation as opposed to obedience. Ive heard that it is cutthroat political judges put up certain dogs because of the human attached to the lead judges prefer oranges competitors are friendly until you win theyre snobby and wont talk to you when you win, etc. I wouldnt have described obedience like that, at least not when I first started. Now that I have become more aware of competition for OTCHs, the Gaines competition, and what competition is like for scores of 197 and up I might qualify my description of obedience competitors.Well, by the time Molly arrived, I had gotten over my fear or at least I had scraped up enough nerve to try. This change of heart was due to Clyde, a low maintenance dog and Nancy, who was willing to teach, train, demonstrate, critique, hand hold, and trust me with a dog good enough to finish.Now that I have some idea of how ring procedure goes and what I should do, I have to figure out how to train Molly. Clyde was very well trained when I got him. However, what I see as my most difficult task is to learn how to properly groom Molly for the show ring. She isnt what Id call low maintenance. I have made efforts for two years to groom my pet Pom. Ive worked on ears and feet and seen coat changes in a male puppy as he grew to adulthood. However, I still see a big difference between Mishka and what I see in the show ring. I know my grooming abilities are not what I want them to be. I really dont know who to ask for help. Nancy knows Poms a bit, but I dont characterize them as her primary breed. My local club doesnt have many experienced active exhibitors. There is one person there I might talk to, but it will take some work to get together. Ive been attending local shows on and off for the last two years watching the Poms, so I have an idea of who shows Poms but isnt attached to the local club. This doesnt yield much either. The people whose dogs I admire in the ring either live far away, dont know me, or both. Well, I guess I will have to work on thatHow to train Molly was I bit of a puzzle but easier to handle than the grooming. I have an idea of how I want Molly to behave from working with Clyde and observing the Pom ring.27 Feb 91I called Nancy for some hints on how she got Clyde so well trained. She gave me her impression of the Pom temperament very emotional, fragile, their feelings get hurt easily, they panic as opposed to getting stubborn. Nancy recommended using variety for baiting, use many different treats because who knows when you will forget "the usual" and have to substitute something last minute. Try many different things food, toys, words, leaves on the ground, noises, etc., to get Molly to work. What doesnt work as bait one day may work three days later. Again, you should have more than one trick to get your dog to go, otherwise what do you do when that doesnt workNancy suggested starting with table work, get Molly used tostanding, laying down, being groomed, etc., on the table. Hopefully, if she is comfortable and used to the table, she will be comfortable at the edge of the table rather than cowering or crouching back away from the edge. Work towards baiting Molly on the table without a lead. Next, progress to baiting her into a stack on the floor without a lead. Then, add the lead to floor work.I had heard or read regarding lead breaking, the suggestion of just tying something around the puppys neck and letting the puppy drag the line around behind to get used to it. Nancy recommended not letting Molly drag the lead, chew on it or play with it. Her reasoning made sense. If a puppy starts off with the lead following her, she will come to expect it to continue to do so, potentially creating a problem for the ring where the puppy should follow the lead. Start the puppy off right and dont confuse it with inconsistency. The same applies to chewing on or playing with the lead. This isnt desirable behavior in the ring, so dont teach that it is okay, then suddenly not allow it any longer. This would be very confusing. Nancy also felt that teaching Molly that the lead means work would produce a more consistent performance. Nancy suggested some cue words to get Molly to move out and to stand still. Lastly, Nancy suggested getting Molly to do whatever I asked of her quickly as opposed to giving up for a week hoping that shed do it later. I should firmly make her do as I ask.Well, I have tried to keep Nancys suggestions in mind, tried to work indoors and out, in a variety of weather and bugs. I try to remember not using the same old piece of cheese. It gets moldy after awhile anyway.14 Apr 91Today was Mollys first match. It was at an outdoor site Id been to before and enjoyed. The weather was pretty nice. Molly was the only puppy in her class 3-6 months with 3-5 Pom puppies going for best puppy. I didnt expect to win anything, but I did want Molly to have a very positive experience for her first time in the ring. I had heard of judges roughing up puppies and scaring them so badly that they wouldnt show again. Fortunately we had a very understanding judge. I mentioned this was Mollys first time. Molly was steady on the table and let me show her bite but she didnt really want to walk. I have seen people dragging reluctant puppies in the ring and always felt bad for the puppy. I was there to train Molly and didnt feel dragging would help her. I offered her bits of cheese. She would walk a little, get a bite of cheese, walk a little, get some cheese. I left it at that.28 Anr91What luck Two kennel clubs held breed only matches yesterday at the same site one in the morning, one in the afternoon, then another match today elsewhere. What a workout Molly gaited very nicely for the morning match. She didnt need bait every other step. She didnt hop or run. She was a little squirmy on the table though.We had a nice long lunch break in the shade with good32 MayJune 1992 Pomeranian \70S\Ecompany, human as well as Pom. I got a good lesson on how to trim feet. Despite the shady break and temperatures in the 70s comfortable, not hot, Molly wasnt as lively in the afternoon. Her gait wasnt as nice either. When we went back in for best Pom puppy, Molly dove for the shade of the judges table. Today Molly generally behaved pretty well, no major balking or table squirming. It was a successful weekend in that Molly got quite a bit of ring time in just two days, which was also a bit of a test of her stamina. I saw some improvement in gait, with no major problems on the table. Molly had a happy attitude about the whole affair.I started a notebook to record Mollys progress at matches and shows. I include information like dates, locations, sponsoring kennel clubs, travel times, judges, placements, and comments about our performances what happened.6-8 Mav 91Mollys first adult tooth is in, in the center of the upper jaw.16 Mav 91Molly lost her first baby tooth, from the bottom center. The bottom teeth are looser than the top ones.19 Mav 91Two to three puppy teeth are out8 Jim 91Two to three more puppy teeth are out from the upper center.13 Jun91I have been checking Mollys mouth every day so that I can tell the difference between puppy and adult teeth. They are all so small. In one of my conversations with Mollys breeder, she suggested wiggling the loose teeth to help them fall out. Today I managed to wiggle one out. I put it in a small, clear plastic bottle to keep.29 Jun91I pulled another tooth out today. Most of the incisor teeth are gone. Molly is 30 weeks old now. She still has all her puppy canines as well as a complete set of adult canines. The adult canines have been in one to three weeks now. Molly had a good bite before all these teeth started coming in now Im not so sure.3 Jul 9.1Molly has two complete sets of canine teeth, and has had them for some time now. I cant say for sure how long. It could be just one week, but it could be as much as three weeks. I cant seem to get the puppy canines out myself. They are in pretty firmly. Frankly, Im getting worried that theyve been in too long. I guess I had hoped to save some money and wiggle all the teeth out myself, but it doesnt look as if that will happen. Whats worse is now Im worried that my niggardliness will cost me Mollys good bite.I called the vet and made an appointment for the 10th to have him check Mollys mouth.10 Jul 91Dr. B says that once there are two complete sets of canines in, it is certainly time to remove the puppy ones. Two to threeweeks of a double set can be enough time to push the adult teeth the wrong way and ruin a good bite. He also suggested that a puppy might need teeth pulled twice, once for incisors, and once for canines, depending upon the time they took to come in. In any case, he agreed it was time to pull Mollys teeth. I left Molly overnight so he could operate first thing in the morning.11 July 91I picked Molly up this afternoon. She had the four canines removed as well as a pre-molar and one incisor. I gently checked her bite before we left the vets. It looked questionable. I am hoping that the bite will be all right8 Aug 91In early July, Mollys adult canines appeared to point in towards the middle of her mouth. They even pointed somewhat towards the back. Not at all the direction they should have been going. Now the upper left incisor is generally where it should be, but could still improve. The upper right is not as good as the left. I keep watching and checking. Slowly, slowly the teeth are moving in the right direction, so I may not have been too late. Thank goodness.16 Aug 91Molly is nearly nine months old now. Ive been watching legs, teeth, nails, training and male dogs. Seems as if maybe it is time to try the show ring, but I dont really know how to tell whether were ready. I signed Molly up for a pair of States Kennel Club S.K.C. shows and a nearby AKC show, all in September. SKC is a nice way to start off because they will probably be smaller shows.8 Sep 91Molly now has half of her SKC challenge certificates. Well go back again when she is over 15 months to finish. The weather was quite hot and yellow jackets were everywhere due to the recent hurricane. Some dogs even got stung. Molly was the only Pom both days, but she got some competition in the puppy and adult groups and took a placement in every group. She placed last only once The judge today knew Poms a bit and said Molly needed to mature and get more experience.6Qct.91.The September AKC show and yesterdays didnt do much for us. There werent any points for us, and we were basically just going about the place. Quite discouraging considering the kind of dog I thought I had. No, she may not be Specials quality, it is too early to say, but Molly is certainly good enough to finish. I also realize that you dont win every show along the way. Clyde went four straight shows without a point, then a 4 point major, three more shows without anything, then went 2 points, 4 points, 3 points, and finished. Clyde also won classes against competition or went RWD along the way. Molly has largely been going dead last. I dont know what the problem is. Perhaps I should check the judges more. I suppose I could blame professional handlers, but I really think it is something else.lgNpy 9.1.I showed Molly both Saturday and Sunday this weekend in Boston.

The perfect day was completed when he was chosen for an Award of Merit, the only winner chosen from the classes.A special thank you to Skipper's supporters who loved him and knew he would do it, and to Fran Stoll and Jenny Carlton for their expert handling of him.

Saturday she won her puppy class because she was the only puppy but the judge didnt appear to consider her for WB. I will say that I have prepared better other days, but I dont think that was it. Sunday she went second of two in her puppy class. I worked very hard on her grooming the week before getting ready for the weekend. Im not always conscientious about frequent cutting of nails. I cut her nails once a week for three weeks before these shows. Her feet have never looked smaller. I did her ears a little differently and even trimmed a little extra hair hanging out at the shoulders. That was a concession for me as I dont like Poms which appear heavily trimmed. I brushed and brushed to try to get her coat to stay up.Im trying hard, but I just dont have the foggiest idea what it is that these judges are looking for, or what it is that Molly and I are missing. Spectator admissions were 5 both days. Between costs and schedules, I went alone. I had no one to observe or critique. Those who often accompany me are no more knowledgeable in Pom conformation than I am, so cant help me much anyway with critiquing. I believe Molly is finishable. Whether it is grooming, handling, judges who dont know Poms, Mollys look not being "typy" enough whatever the heck "typy" is anyway or another bitch actually being better, I dont know. If I dont know, how can I modify anything to improve our success It wouldnt be hard just to give up and quit. I dont know what Im doing. I dont mind losing to a sounder dog, yet I just read one judges opinion as non-working dogs, movement really isnt so important for Poms. She is more interested in type or looks. Great I get one with good legs for obedience and other considerations and the judge isnt even going to count that for anything. Not all Poms have good legs, you know.I know Im a novice, and that it takes time to learn things. I realize that there are Pom people who have put in their dues to get to the current success they are lucky enough to enjoy today. I also realize that every one of them would be likely to say that so and so helped them along the way. I dont make friends quickly or ask favors easily, and am in awe of all the respected Pom people. I feel as if Im beating my head against the wall and dont know how to get better.22 Nov 91Molly was due to blow coat starting a month ago, but nothing is coming out. I think it is due to our colder weather in the Northeast. Since she didnt blow, and these November shows are pretty close, not to mention a reduced class fee for puppies at some shows, I figured Id give.it a shot. I think today we did our best ever. I liked the judge and knew he looked for movement, which I figured we had. I resorted to some grooming techniques Id rather not have had to use. As Dolly Partons character in Steel Magnolias says, every girl needs a little help. My friend Sharon came with me and kept me calm. I think I went in with a very positive frame of mind. We looked good, moved well, were given serious consideration by the judge. Even though we didnt even get reserve, I felt as if I was treated fairly and am content.24 Nov 91Today is not notable for what happened in the ring, but rather after. A friend of a friend, both of who live out of the36 MayJune 1992 Pomeranian SSSWOBMarea, video taped Molly for me. She taped her gait and up close. Laurie also gave me her opinion of Molly. She thought maybe the front legs were moving wrong. Another long distance friend gave me some grooming hints. I will mail the video out tomorrow to the breeder.25 Nov 91Some early results on what is going on. By way of the computer, Maryann says Laurie has reported in and the results are Yes, Molly is show quality her rear is more than passable the front is off because the chest is still too narrow there is no undercoat I may be trying too hard. The consensus is to pull her and wait for coat. Although it is hard to wait, the results are pretty definitive that we should pull her from the show ring..1 Dec 91The breeder called. Molly is definitely out of coat. She is pleased with the basic body structure. She suggests breeding Molly to help widen the chest, although it will also come about on its own with more time to mature. We also discussed a few handling tips to get her head up, to walk more straight and keep her attention.I guess I feel somewhat relieved at the diagnosis. I am certainly grateful for my long distant helpers, wish they were closer, but I am disappointed too. I have seen other Poms Mollys age or younger at these last four shows with no better coat go WD, WB, BOW, BOS. One was younger and from the puppy class too. This puppy had a coat that looked like cotton candy. Certainly a coat like that looks as if it would stand up with no problem. How are they placing better with no better coat Ah, the mysteries of life. ^How the fiPC selects flqtionql Specialty Judgesby Audrey RobertsHow do those five names of Regular Class Judges and those five names of Sweeps Judges magically appear on the ballot you receive each yearThe procedure has been in place longer than Ive been around the APC. I wont discuss the merits of the procedure, but will explain itYour Board, during their final Board Meeting on the National Specialty weekend sit around a table trowing out names until we get about fifteen to twenty judges, then we cast secret ballots to eliminate all but five names. This is repeated for Sweeps and now will be done for three Obedience Judges. The results are five Regular Judges, five Sweeps Judges, and 3 Obedience Judges. This is then mailed to you and you vote on one in each catagory. Voile we have judges for our National Specialty1. Why does the Board get to pick This is one of our prescribed duties and you voted us in2. Do I, as an APC member have any input Yes, and no Have you ever gone to a board member and said Please put JQ Publics name in forjudge If you will say this to me, I will most definitely submit the name. Have you ever gone to many Board Members and asked them to consider this judge whos name will be submitted If you do, the chances of JQ Public being one of the five on the final ballot would go up tremendously3.

Thanks a million Brenda for a job well done. We wish you well in your conformation endeavors and hope to find you back in the obedience ring working on dual titles one of these days.For those of you that dont know anything about me or my obedience background, a very brief resume. I have been showing my Poms in obedience since the early 70s and have also shown in conformation, finishing two champions one homebred. My husband and I are currently sharing our home with five Poms 1 retired UD, 2 CDXs and 2 young hopefuls and a retired UD Sheltie. I work part-time as an Animal Control Officer, a job which is sometimes frustrating, but also very rewarding. All my dogs are much loved and spoiled rotten housepets. I share the same training goals, problems and frustrations that the rest of you do and hope this column will address, discuss and maybe even help solve those problems. Ill be sending out questionaires in the near future in hopes of finding out what YOU want from your obedience column.Due to financial difficulties, I was unable to attend our National Specialty in February. This was the first time ever that obedience has been offered in our National Congratulations to all who exhibited at this historical first Mary Vickers was kind enough to give me the results of this Trial which are as followsHIGH IN TRIAL Dover-Holihouse Fire N Ice UD - ownerSandy WinchatzUtility classes had no qualifiersOPEN B1st - Dover-Holihouse Fire N Ice UD - Sandy Winchatz -196 2nd - Razzle Dazzle Music Man CDX - Judy Green High Scoring Bred by3rd - Idlewyld Charm Bracelet CDX - Margaret John McKee 4th - Tykies Jacki Bb of Tiny Tykes CDX - Trudy AdairOPEN A1st - Animations Simon CD - Carol Bray -184 12NOVICE-B1st - Ch.

Besides these Specialties there are 4 All-Breed Shows the week before and 3 All-Breed Shows the week after, ALL WITH OBEDIENCEThe Specialty shows will be held outdoors. Ring conditions are good with nice lawn and baby gates. Shaded areas will be provided for our exhibitors. The weather in July is usually mild but come prepared for anything. Its not unusual to need a sweater or a jacket Transportation can be provided to and from our host hotel.We will also be holding a Canine Good Citizenship test for Poms only. Entries can be made the day of the show. BE SURE TO BRING PROOF OF YOUR DOGS RABIES VACCINE WITH YOU. This is required by AKC for all dogs taking the test. Formal obedience training is NOT required for this test though it is helpful. I will be happy to send anyone who is interested information about the test.If you will be attending the Specialties and would like to share a room with another Pom exhibitor please let me know, also whether or not you are a smoker. We have put together obedience exhibitor packets with lots of neat goodies for both you and your dogs. A great hospitality room with refreshments will be available to everyone. A practice ring with jumps will be available at the hotel site. This will be an event not to be missed. Please contact me for further information and to be put on the mailing list for show premiums.I received exciting news from Patti Hecht in Georgia concerning her tiny 3 12, red Pom "Pixie" Glen Iris Star Diamond. "Pixie" completed her CD in 3 shows, all with class placements The first leg was earned at the Jacksonville KC show in May of 91, with a score of 191, 2nd place and High Scoring Toy Dog. Her second leg at the Savannah KC show on 1492 brought her 1st place with a score of 193. The following day Pixie earned a 180 which was good for 3rd place and High Scoring Toy at the Jacksonville KC show. Patti says Pixie is a joy to train. This diminutive Pom loves to train and show which Patti attributes to training with food. "Pixie" was purchased from Cheryl Jackson as an obedience prospect. Cheryl had advised Patti that this bright little girl showed exceptional spunk and intelligence even as a tiny baby. "Pixie" is now in training for her Open CDX title, so watch for this tiny ball of fire later this year.

Hutton BKs Pomeranians 517 485-5183Pomeranian MayJune 1992 49rW-oftSubmitted by Happeth Michael JonesTo the members ofAPCAt Westminster my husband ran into Lawrence Stanbridge the judge of our regular classes at the Specialty. Mr. Stanbridge remarked that he had enjoyed our show so much. He said the Pom exhibitors were so nice and were so obviously happy for the winners. What Mr. Stanbridge had observed was indeed an accurate description of our show. Comradship, good sportsmanship, and a strong feeling of unity existed at this show. This made for just a lot of plain old fashioned fun.Putting the special back into the Specialty did not happen by accident. Many members gave of their time, money and ideas to make this happen. At the top of the list are Dolly Trauner and Dudley Wanda Roach. Dolly paid for all her own expenses and even refused a free dinner in order to not cost the club anything, she made dozens of long distance phone calls at her own expense, for the club. She got this job at the last minute and made it work. Dudley did all the work on the premium list and 84 page catalog, and when he ended up in the hospital he didnt tell us about it, but kept on working with Wanda doing what he couldnt do. Everything was done beautifully and on time. I dont think we have ever had such a beautiful and large catalog. These three made many calls for donations and ended up getting enough that the premium list and catalog were completely paid for. In my heart I believe that their attitude of giving started the ball rolling. Because soon everyone started pitching in.There are others that also made this show special. Elizabeth Dupuis who did a fantastic job getting trophy donations, Mary Vickers who fought against a lot of criticism to get us back to the Marriott, Patty Griffin and Sandra White who made the TBR show a reality. Before I go further, for those of you who were not there and do not know what a TBR show is, a TBR is that tack box rat that you use to bait your dogs with. Well, we had a show just like a regular dog show except we bribed the judges with money under our rats or other unethical means. Everyone got into the fun of this and no group of comedians could improvise as well as our TBR exhibitors.Lisa Smart, Sandra White and Audrey Roberts sat in the hallway to man our auction and Pom Shoppe giving up the pleasure of seeing the show in order to help. There are so many others whom I am forgetting to name. Like all the clubs who donated money, all of you who advertised, all of you who donated to the trophy fund, and all of you there that did work for the show.I just want to say thank you everyone for your contributions. You made this the biggest Specialty ever in the history of the club, a Specialty that made a profit of over 4000.00, but most of all you created a feeling of all of us belonging together in this club.IV\YoSubmitted by Elizabeth DupuisFrom your NY 92 Trophy ChairDuring our banquet, it was most unfortunate that I wasnt given the opportunity to address you, the membership, regarding some information pertaining to our trophies.Please allow me the following space...The total cost to the club for the entire trophy package was 1800. Through everyones generosity, we raised 2564. This giving the APC an extra 764 to use elsewhere towards Specialty expenses. Through the grapevine, Im told that our 92 funds raised were second only to the late Edna Girardots 90 efforts. Well done everyoneAs proper etiquette would prescribe, those individuals who donated their own special awards deserve verbal, in this case written acknowledgement. To Melissa David Dahlenburg, Jerrie Freia, Mary Picone and Sue Goddard please accept our sincere gratitude Through the excitement of the event a section of general trophy fund donators names were mistakenly omitted from the catalog... belated thanks and apologies to Gertrude Howell Dolly Trauner Mrs. J. Smith Donna Lynn Wright Elaine Way Sharon Hanson Chris Heartz Paulette Zecca Rosalind Goeltz Judy Green Verla Dagel Andrea Hall Marian Lazarra Fran Stoll Tom Burrows, Cheryl Wagner and the late Skip PiazzaOur trophies were gorgeous and the entire event delightfully successful. Hats off to everyone who contributed to the NY National Specialty weekendSubmitted by Alesha MarieIt is gratifying to see we are making some progress in the areas of anti-dog legislation. San Mateo recently rescind their spay and neuter requirements for all cats and dogs and have instead, put higher licensing fees on un-neuteredspayed animals and require breeders to obtain a license. That makes sense. As we become better organized and focus our energies on continuing the fight, we need also to remind ourselves of some basics.In our last Pom Review, the brief article by David Edwards "Show Dogs and Household Pets, A Thing of the Past" and the article in the NovDec issue by Elizabeth Dupuis, "Puppy Auction Atrocity," focuses on our need to closely monitor the activities of irresponsible breeders, and radical individuals who would curtail our way of life. If you are fortunate enough to have access to Kennel Review, there have been a series of articles written recently by Patti Strand on this subject The most profound was the one in the Nov. 1991 Issue Doctors, Dolphins, Dogs, the Real Dirt and What You Can Do.

If anyone is interested in this article I will be happy to secure the rights for its publication in the PR.We are making progress slow though it may be but it is imperative we continue our vigilance and make every effort to improve our attitude and sense of responsibility toward our breeding practices.Along these lines, I noticed a short article in the last Pom Review written by Barbara Chance taken from the Bay Colony Newsletter. It follows along the same line as an article I wrote for the PR a year ago. It is important to reiterate the necessity of following the standard and taking responsibility for our actions. I fully support and open registry such as the one outlined in the article "Why Have "Open" Registries" by George A. Padgett, DVM taken with permission from the GRF, Inc., Newsletter.I feel it is necessary to comment on the letter from Sally Baugniet in the last issue Yips Yaps. Though I do not know the content of the article in question, I can say for sure that the Pom Reader and the Pom Registry will not go away - even if we ignore them. To prevent a member of the Board from expressing an opinion in another related medium is foolish and archaic. The individuals who subscribe to the aforementioned publications, have a need for the same information and opinions as appears in the Official Publication of the American Pomeranian Club. Are we not pursuing the same goals The betterment of the Pomeranian as a breed Heaven knows the breed needs all the help it can get. It might be time to examine the practices related to the fixing of advertising rates, content in general there has for a number of years, been a lack of real content in this magazine, though I will say of late, there has been an improvement and I hope it continues forever, paid advertising from quality vendors, subscription prices, realistic postage costs, etc. A question can be asked is the focus of this publication to impress judges and other exhibitors Or is this publication the "Official" publication of the club a source of information on our breed Once that question is answered and a focus determined, then the quality will improve. This is not, by the way, a criticism of the Publisher who made a decision which needed to be made by the Board.It might also be useful to look at the reasons why the Reader and the Registry came into existence in the first place. My guess is there needed to be a forum where a breeder, with limited funds, could advertise. You cannot gamer a greater number of ads in this magazine or any other magazine for that matter by raising rates out of the reach of the majority. If you were to lower the rates on all ads except for the covers and centerspread you might find more people willing and able to advertise in this publication and therefore have more dollars in the coffer. I cant afford the prices and Im sure Im not alone.By the way, Ms. Baugniet --1 for one, feel you have contributed above and beyond the call of duty and your credentials as a breeder, judge and Board Member are above reproach Go for itSubmitted, by Audrey RobertsPersonal ViewsI believe in freedom of speech. I also believe in employeeemployer exclusivity. I as a member of the APC Board of Directors subscribe to the opinion that an employeeemployer situation therefore exists. What does this mean If my employer is a publisher of a magazine and Im on staff I would expect to be fired if I submitted my writing to a direct competitor. This is how I feel about the Pomeranian Review. I will not advertise in, or write for another Pomeranian publication. It is also my opinion that this should include all Board Members. However, having said that, I will defend to my dying breathe others rights to disagree exercise their freedom of speech any way they deem proper. Other members of this board write for, subscribe to, and advertise in other Pomeranian magazines. This is their right and I bow to their rights, but I dont have to agree with the ethics of their choicesThis subject came up because a motion was made to ask Board Members not to advertise in, or write for any direct Pomeranian competitor. In order to allow for discussion this motion was seconded. In a parliamentary meeting discussion cannot ensue without this second This motion was then promptly defeated by a large majority. To dispel rumors, this motions intent was not to include APC General MembersAs stated in an editorial of a competitors publication, the Board was not "Stupid" to entertain and second the motion Since when is discussion of a shared opinion stupid The second wasnt "even more stupid" as its purpose was to allow discussion. The holder of the second voted no on the motion Although I share the opinion I voted no because I wont condone legislating opinions or ethics. This is a personal choice each Board Member should make for themselves. I agree to disagreeSubmitted by Lisa SmartWays Means CommitteeI would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you wonderful Pom people for all the lovely items donated for our auction at this years National Specialty in New York, and a special thank you to ARMETHA REYNOLDS who made the beautiful quilt for the raffle.
