The Southern Handlers Charity League is a charitable organization that consists of local professional handlers that work together to give back to those in the dog show community that are in need. In the past, The Southern Handlers Charity League has made significant donations to individuals who have been ill, suffered from tragic accidents, lost loved ones, and endured a variety of other hardships. These donations would not be possible without the enthusiastic and dedicated Southern Handlers Charity League members or without the support of the fancy.

Their most recent fundraiser was titled “Tim, Butcher The Beard!” Tim James, of Onofrio Dog Shows, agreed to go clean shaven at the Summer Classic Dog Show Cluster in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma if the Southern Handlers Charity League raised $20,000.  The money raised in this fundraiser was to be split between the Southern Handlers Charity League and the Junior Achievement Challenge. The response was overwhelming! The fundraiser raised over $27,000 in just two short months.

As promised, Tim James was clean shaven in Oklahoma City. Tim’s family was in attendance during the event, including his grand daughter who approved of his new look. The Canine Chronicle would like to congratulate the Southern Handlers Charity League on an extremely successful and fun fundraiser.
