Multi BOB - BISSGroup Placements

Cammie started in the show ring May 2009 at 6 months 9 days old. Two weeks later, she received her championship out of the BBE classes with three 4-point and one 3-point majors, three BOB’s over top specials, a Group IV and two Group III’s, and the BBE Best in Show $1,000 cup.

After five months of showing, we took December off to relax and get ready for 2010. Cammie ended her first year in the show ring ranked #19 in Breed and #11 in All-Breed.

Thanks to all the judges who recognized her beautiful movement, square head and body, and her susbstance.

We look forward to the 2010 shows as we bring Cammie out as a mature adult. Dab’s Bostons wishes all our Boston friends the best New Year.

he New Year is upon us. It is a time of reflection – to recount the highs and lows of the previous year and to decide and set into motion the plans for the year ahead. It is that season of unlimited potential, full of hope and the promise of things to come.

The final standings are in from the previous year – which now seems like a lifetime ago although it has barely left us. It’s a time for some to celebrate, for others to rethink and second-guess every decision that they made – from show selection to choice of handler to use of ads – was there something they overlooked that gave that other dog the edge? And some will actually look at their dogs. Could it be that this dog did as well as it could do given its quality and ring presence relative to the competi-tion?

Regardless of the final outcome, in the Specials Ring we are all at Zero once again. It’s a bit like being in Sales. What you did yesterday is what you did yesterday and this is today. Enough said on that. Time to get focused on 2010!

by Michele WrathSunnyOaks Dalmatians

T There are litters to plan, puppies to show, dogs to finish and specials to be debuted and campaigned. There are more letters to write and petitions to sign as the fight against the Animal Rights activists begins anew. And sadly, there are always more dogs to rescue.

For those of us who are breeders at heart, there is nothing more exciting than the promise of a new litter. The stud dog has been selected, health clearances are complete and arrangements have been made. Now the waiting game begins. If the dam has to travel or semen has to be shipped, you become a frequent viewer of the weather channel – wondering if you are in fact going to hit a tem-perature spike or trough that could wreak havoc on your plans. We recently flew across country. I routed the flights through Dallas thinking it would be the least likely place to have snow – and of course it snowed the day we traveled – it was the first time they had snow on that day in 100 years!

Most of the time it all works out, but it is always good to have a Plan “B” and even better to have a bitch that watches the weather channel with you and cooperates so that The Big Day doesn’t fall in the middle of a blizzard or heat wave!

And somewhere between getting a breeding done and whelping and raising a litter, there are dogs to show. More decisions.

The Best Year

in Dogs

And then there’s the promising youngster – you know the one. It was the puppy everyone noticed in the litter box. The one that finished easily, with multiple specialty wins and all those majors and perhaps a BOB and group placement from the class-es – does this one have what it takes to go beyond an exciting championship record to the test of the specials ring? And there is a difference.

As one long time breeder said to me early on in my life in dogs, “There are many dogs deserving of a championship, but there are few dogs worthy of being a special”. Hard words to swallow, but true none the less. You think long and hard, and decide to test the water. You’ll know soon enough whether this one has the right combination of quality, pres-ence, timing and just plain luck to win.

The decisions are all now in place. The new show year begins. Entries are made, hotel rooms are reserved and travel plans are finalized. Across the country grooming tables get pulled out, vans get packed, and alarm clocks are set for the start of the show season.

At home, whelping boxes arepulled out of the attic, rooms are cleared out and the puppy room is set up. Websites are updated, blogs are started, and puppy reservations are taken. The dog lists are active again with the results of the first shows, recent litter announcements, and the endless stream of gossip that is so much a part of the dog show world.

You can feel the energy in the air. After all, this will indeed be the BEST year in Dogs!

Happy New Year!

Do we try to finish the youngster withall majors, from the puppy class, exclusively from Bred-By, only at Specialties or any way we can? Is the dog that lives with theco-owner crate trained well enough to travel to the National Specialty so that when the Show Chairman makes the announcements for the day it won’t beyour room number called out with the offending barker.

Understanding Digestive Enzymes & Probioticsby Nancy Anderson

Chances are that in recent years you’ve heard about digestive enzymes and probiotics. Why all the buzz? What are they, actually, and why are they being touted as so crucial?Researchers are really only just beginning to under-stand them and their important roles in the body.

Enzymes are catalysts made up of amino acids that enable chemical reactions to occur in the body(such as the breakdown of food, in digestive en-zymes). There are different types of enzymes,metabolic and digestive, and within these types, en-zymes are further broken down. For example,digestive enzymes are broken down into the differ-ent food types that they help to digest; i.e., protease breaks down proteins, amylase breaks down carbohy-drates, and lipase breaks down fats. When not aiding digestion, these enzymes perform other crucial roles; for example, lipase supports hormone production and gallbladder function. Researchers now believe that the body does not pro-duce digestive enzymes, but starts out with a supply (or, bank) which is drawn upon when the enzymes needed are not available with the food entering the digestive tract. Food consumed by animals in the wild contains the enzymes necessary for the breakdown and digestion of that food. Unfortunately, enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 1180 or higher, so food that is processed or cooked contains no viable en-zymes to help digest it. What happens then? A with-drawal will need to be made from the enzyme bank!

To further complicate things, metabolic enzymes function throughout the body to enable biochemical reactions in the cells (remember the Krebs Cycle in high school biology?). They are responsible for every function in the body - including fighting disease.When enzymes are not available for digestiveprocesses, metabolic enzymes are utilized to aid in processing the food instead of performing the role they are designed for. This is called enzyme robbing. With the increase in our pets’ chronic health issues since the introduction of processed food, many are linking it with the lack of enzymes.

Farther down the digestive system, we meet the probiotics, which are live microorganisms that live in the intestines. Also called the “good bacteria” or “flora,” they are continuously interacting with eachother and with the cells lining the intestinal walls, aiding in the assimilation of nutrients. Theseorganisms are also involved constantly with the im-mune, endocrine, and central nervous systems.While there are over 400 species of bacteria in the gut, probiotics usually fall into two groups,Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. These overpower and crowd out the bad or pathogenic bacteria which may otherwise wreak havoc in the system. Probiot-ics also stimulate the intestinal immune system and produce some vitamins, as well as short-chain fatty acids, amino acids, and antioxidants.Some increase the production of intestinal anti-inflammatory modulators, which is why they areindicated specifically for conditions such as IBS and IBD.

Probiotics are destroyed by the use of antibiotics, but they are also destroyed by chemicals such aschlorine, and even stress. So, a pet treated with amoxicillin or doxycycline would benefit by a 3D-day regimen of probiotics, but many would benefit by having them on a continual basis, since evensomething as seemingly harmless as drinking tap water may be wiping out your pet’s good intestinalflora.

So, while digestive enzymes and probiotics are dis-tinctly different and function separately in the body, each plays a significant role in the digestion and assimilation of nutrients, helping to keep your pets healthy. If you have any questions regarding how they may apply to your pets or to betterunderstand them, feel free to contact me. If we don’t know the answer, we’ll find out for you.
