Just as you never forget your first love, it’s often said you never forget your first Crufts, and I can attest to the truth of this statement–well, the Crufts bit anyway.
All dog breeds were bred to perform a specific purpose. We want to see our readers’ dogs doing the work they were bred to do to be shared on The Canine Chronicle! Thank you Gabrielle Beaubrun for sharing this funny Form Follows Function photo! According to the American Kennel Club, “The monks kept Tibetan Spaniels mainly [...]
In this fast-paced, high-tech world, sometimes we’re zooming so fast we miss seeing everything right under our noses! Any long-time, successful breeder can tell you it takes years to build a foundation from which to breed. The “Powers That Be” understand that and ask for a minimum amount of time required as part of the Judging Application Process as a Breeder /Judge–“X” number of litters and “X” number of Champions bred. Those numbers are mandatory for the first-time applicant applying under the “Breeder/Judge” criteria. Those who apply as a “Breeder/Judge” seldom (if ever) disappoint in preparedness by virtue of “time served” in the whelping box and show ring.
I mentioned last week that I was attending the Labrador Retriever Club of the Potomac. I frankly did not know what to expect and from the moment I arrived I was in awe! The LRCP did a special mentoring session for approved Labrador Judges which was well-attended and enjoyed by all the participants. Desi Murphy said, “The Specials had the most depth of quality I’ve ever witnessed!!” What an amazing opportunity to talk dogs with some of the breed’s experts and witness a depth of quality that is second to none! If you have not had the opportunity, please be sure to check out some of the Table Talk segments from Potomac week. I had the opportunity to visit with some winners, judges, and hard-working Potomac volunteers! Most importantly, I’d like to give kudos to a community of people that is supportive of each other and kind to all! Thank you to everyone who made me feel welcome and made my week enjoyable–and productive! If you have not had the opportunity to attend the Potomac, I strongly encourage you to add it to your bucket list.
