Regarding that point I was so encouraged to hear Marissa Clark’s intro before she judged the Sussex Spaniel specialty on Friday. Prior to the start of judging, she addressed all exhibitors outside the ring calling their attention to the heat and giving all the license to wet their dogs down and keep them cool: She comforted all by saying she is familiar with coated dogs and would NOT negatively view anyone who wet their dog down. She then gave all of the exhibitors the choice to go at a faster pace to minimize the length of time these dogs would be in the heat. Much to my delight all agreed to go at a rapid pace for the sake of the dogs. Kudos to Marissa Clark and the Sussex Spaniel folks!!!!!

I received sad news this past weekend and wish to extend my deepest sympathies to Katherine Wurtz-Smoot on the loss of her mother. She had been battling cancer for some time. I was also very saddened to hear of the passing of Ralph DeLaFuente. Many of you remember Ralph as a long-time Shar-Pei enthusiast who owned Ch. Grayland’s Starlite Margaret aka “Margaret”. Margaret was the multiple Best In Show winner, who was shown to perfection by Vicki Seiler.

“Dog shows are constantly announcing not to leave dogs in the car and to bring them inside,” said Booth, whose business covers almost 200 shows.
Regardless of the circumstances surrounding Friday’s incident, Carlson hopes it serves as a reminder for pet owners to exercise extreme caution during times of extreme temperatures.
