"I’ve seen both good and bad trends in the sport. Competition in the show ring is what it is and you have to be willing to accept that. Even Owner-Handled competition is more and more at a high level. Any time you walk in the ring you have to be prepared to “play with the big dogs.” But, that being said, every time a judge recognizes your dog, your heart swells with pride. And even if you don’t come out the big winner you always take the best dog home."🐾-Lynda Kieres
In honor of the city where these happy-go-lucky dogs were so painstakingly developed, the breed name was changed to Boston Terrier. The Boston Terrier Club of America was formed in 1891, and two years later the AKC registered its first dog of the breed.
The skull is square, flat on top, free from wrinkles, cheeks flat, brow abrupt and the stop well defined. The ideal Boston Terrier expression is alert and kind, indicating a high degree of intelligence. This is a most important characteristic of the breed. The eyes are wide apart, large and round and dark in color.
The eyes are set square in the skull and the outside corners are on a line with the cheeks as viewed from the front. Disqualify - Eyes blue in color or any trace of blue. The ears are small, carried erect, either natural or cropped to conform to the shape of the head and situated as near to the corners of the skull as possible.🐾
Kind, elegant, and strong are just a few words that come to mind when describing the Leonberger. This is a dimorphic breed, which means males and females should be unmistakably masculine or feminine, based upon appearance alone. One big difference is the males have the classic “mane” while females do not. Males are generally larger than females too; however, this shouldn’t affect workability.🐾
When Kado (AUS CH Glamourford Falcon Unreal) was a pup, he was a very easily excitable pup and loved playing roughly with my other dogs. At a young age, though, we saw a very different behaviour when we would encounter small kids, toddlers, people with walking aids or people with wheel chairs, and older people. Somehow, he knew that these people were fragile and he needed to be gentle with them. There were no sudden movements or his usual kangaroo hopping, etc.❤️
GINA M. DINARDO APPOINTED PRESIDENT AND CEO OF THE AMERICAN KENNEL
The American Kennel Club (AKC) Board of Directors is pleased to announce the appointment of Gina M. DiNardo as AKC President and CEO, effective April 1, 2025. DiNardo will step into this leadership role following Dennis Sprung, ensuring a seamless transition as the organization continues its mission to advocate for purebred dogs and responsible dog ownership.
“We are deeply grateful for Dennis Sprung’s decades of contributions to the AKC and wish him success,” said Dr. Thomas Davies, Chairman of the AKC Board of Directors. “We are also confident that Gina will provide steady leadership and uphold the values that have made the AKC the trusted authority on breeds and all things dog.”
DiNardo brings a wealth of knowledge and leadership to the AKC, with over 50 years of experience in the sport of purebred dogs as both a breeder and owner-handler.
In the 20th century Bichons faced hard times because of the shortages and austerities brought on by the two world wars. Many Bichons found themselves out in the cold. Thanks to a few fanciers who gathered Bichons off the streets of France and Belgium, the breed survived and was recognized in France under the auspices of the Societé Centrale Canine in1933 as the Bichon a Poil Frisé—the “Bichon of the curly hair.” 🐾
The American Eskimo Dog comes in three sizes'standard, miniature, and toy'standing as tall as 19 inches at the shoulder or as short as 9 inches. Distinctive traits include a dense, sparkling white coat with a lion-like ruff around the chest and shoulders; a smiling face, with black nose, lips, and eye-rims that convey a keen, intelligent expression; and a plumed tail carried over the back. 🐾
