The Big E – The Expedition
Another day of unremitting rain continues to fall on the wilds of Western New Jersey. For more than a week, we have been under continuous flash flood alerts. I am looking out the large windows in front of me, as I sit at the kitchen island, and all I can see is the water dripping from the canvas cover over the dogs’ large pen. Beyond that the foothills of the Appalachians are obscured by the mist and rolling fog. The windmill which pumps water on this farm property is enjoying a rest from the many battles it has fought when the strong winds have blown through relentlessly. It is a relic of the 1940s, but still in good working condition today.
Going To Ground – Earthdog Style
If you have a Dachshund or small terrier, you may have already discovered that they are prone to digging up the back yard or a garden bed. Maybe you have seen your dog chase a squirrel across the yard and up a tree, or it could be that they caught a mouse, chipmunk or some other rodent and left it partially eaten by the back door.

Two Worlds And The Shared Discipline
Walking into the exhibition hall of The Big E in Springfield, MA, to meet the handler for the first time, I knew or even understood very little about the sport of purebred dogs. While my dog is currently off traveling with his handler, I still know very little, and yet I know more than I thought I ever would. Until 2018, I knew nothing of the breed ring outside of watching Best in Show which came out in the early 2000s. I wasn’t aware of the prestigious honor it was to be at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Have you ever seen the movie Karate Kid that came out in 1984? Have you heard of the World Open Martial Arts Championship (WOMAC) held each year in New York? I am most comfortable with Martial Arts and the hype of the Karate Kid franchise. Much like the martial arts industry and competitions, more is happening at a dog show behind the scenes that media platforms only sometimes present. Below are five concepts of competing in martial arts that have made the transition into the dog world easier and enhanced my team’s place in the martial arts venue.
