Vicki & Larry Abbott Discuss WKC’s NYC Return
The standout impression of Westminster 2025 was, by far, the week’s familiar routine. Yes, there were a few changes–mainly the venues. But for the most part, it was just like the good old days, right down to the awful weather. Larry and Vicki Abbot have been making the NYC Westminster trek for decades, first as exhibitors of record breaking Maltese and currently as judges. It’s no surprise that their initial breed was Maltese. Currently Larry is approved for the Sporting Group, Herding Group, Non-Sporting and Toys. Vicki is approved for Sporting, Hound, Terrier, Toy and Non-Sporting breeds.

Breed Priorities – The Welsh Springer Spaniel
The Welsh Springer Spaniel is thought to be one of the oldest spaniels developed in Great Britain. There had been red and white spaniels identified in literature and art for centuries. In 1902, they were recognized as a separate breed in the United Kennel Club. AKC recognized the breed in 1906. The Welsh Springer Spaniel Club of America was formed in 1961.
The Gamekeeper’s Dog
Simon Parsons, a living legend of the UK pedigree dog scene–and what this man doesn’t know about champion dogs, exhibitors and breeders past and present simply isn’t worth knowing–recently wrote on Facebook; “Delving into dog show history is a good way of blotting out present day reality, thank goodness!” I completely agree with him.

How Form/Function Connect Crop/Dock Via Citizen Science
Solving problems using Citizen Science is not new. It builds on a community of people who work together on topics of mutual interest. Traditional research was always considered the purview of the university. This belief effectively ruled out other kinds of good science and the motivation of others to become involved. Today, there are many Citizen Science projects that involve monitoring the Chesapeake Bay, astronomy, environmental science, climatology, hydrology, neuroscience and genetics. In the dog world, it shifts the restrictions imposed by laboratory controls and allows breeders to participate in dog studies like the Morris Animal Foundation that has been studying Golden Retrievers, and the Dog Aging project at Texas A&M. Other on-going studies are being used to shed light on problems of a specific interest. Citizen Science efforts can also mirror a successful concept used by the American Kennel Club Canine Health Foundation called the “Acorn Grant” . These are small seed grants (studies) designed to determine the viability of an approach to a specific subject or to a problem area. In this case, breeders and their clubs could use the Citizen Science approach to study how Form and Function might be interconnected with helping the growing problems of breeds that use Crop and Dock techniques.
Common Skin Lumps And Bumps In The Dog, What Should We Do?
In this article, I will talk about a few of the most basic, and common skin tumors that can occur in dogs. The skin is the largest organ in the body and this article is not meant to be a comprehensive review of all possible tumors that can occur in the skin of the dog, instead it is meant be a general overview of what to do if your dog has skin lumps or bumps. Many of the skin tumor types in dogs can look similar but have different behaviors. Your veterinarian should be consulted for any new lump or bump that appears on your dog or if there have been any changes to previously evaluated lumps.
