Remembering Maxine Beam

It is with great sadness and regret that we report the passing of Maxine Beam of Fort Worth, Texas. Maxine Beam was one of the great and knowledgeable multi-group judges and finest dog people of her time. She was a judge of the Sporting, Working, Terrier, Toy, and Non-Sporting Groups.

Maxine was a renowned and successful all breed professional handler for over thirty years with a special interest in Poodles, Boxers, and German Shepherds. As a handler, she piloted three Poodles to win the Quacker Oats Ken-L Ration award. As a judge, her assignments took her all over the world and to the most prestigious venues including Westminster Kennel Club and the American Kennel Club National Championship. She judged Best in Show at the AKC National Championship in 2007. She was a friend and lifetime mentor to many.

The Canine Chronicle extends our sincere condolences to all who knew and loved Maxine. She will be sorely missed.
