Congratulations!Recent noteworthy wins by our members

Hello everyone,

It has been an eventful summer in the Water Dog world and

I hope you have also taken part and enjoyed it.

PWDCOntario club held a Water Trial in Waterloo, Ontario

after an exhausting search for a new site, the Laurel Creek

Conservation Area proved a great location. Many thanks to

Lorraine Wilson Trial Chair and her wonderful team of

volunteers for pulling off a great trial in such short notice.

There our Judge, long time member and Water enthusiast

extraordinaire, Catherine Gadd was honoured for her nurturing

the Water Program in Canada and her mentoring of many

members with the announcement of 'The Catherine Gadd

PWDCC Courier Water Dog Trophy. This beautiful trophy with

an image of Catherine's first PWD Kelsey, will have the names

of all dogs and owners that have achieved Courier Water Dog

or Courier Water Dog Excellent at a PWDCC Water Trial. The

perpetual trophy has 15 teams so far to be enscribed!

The PWDCC also held a successful Water Trial in Gull Lake

Alberta that was well attended and enjoyed by all, thanks to

Trial Chair Audrey Hawthorne, Secretary Brenda Brown and

all the volunteers that made the event successful. The PWDCC

boats for this event were transported from BC to Alberta by

volunteer Andy Gamache, a long trip. Thank you Andy.

Also thanks to Val Berry, who in cooperation with PWDCC

Rescue Coordinator Mari Szauerzopf, evaluated a rescue dog

in British Columbia, took the dog into her home, had him

vetted, gave him some remedial training and found him a

suitable to home. Thank you Val, without the many volunteers

running events, taking care of dogs in need, and people

running the various programs we would not have the quality

of club we enjoy.

Many PWDCC members were in attendance at the PWDCA

National Specialty in Pine Mountain, Georgia recently and

many ribbons were returned back to Canada.

Congratulations to all.

The Executive is working on our next National Specialty Show

to be held in Milton Ontario, August 8-12 2012, watch for

details to be announced soon, hope to see you there.

Regards

From Judge Catherine Gadd

You and your committee did a fantastic job. It was a great

pleasure to judge on my home turf. Thank you to the excellent

stewards, especially Pat and Roy they worked tirelessly the

whole weekend. It really helps to have good rowers and throw-

ers! The trophies and ribbons were super. It was disappointing

we did not have more Q’s but there were a lot of new teams.

Hopefully they are inspired to come back next year and try

again.

The site worked out very well despite the challenges we had

with it. Wonderful we have been invited back.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved

for the beautiful CWD plaque and for Roslyn’s very kind

speech. I am looking forward to seeing the Canadian CWDs on

it. I am so happy that water work in Canada is alive and well.

I believe our program can only grow and become even more

successful. The PWDCC really does hold very good trials and

I am proud of all of us!! So again congratulations everyone.

I am already looking forward to next summer. Too bad it is so

far away!!

From Lorraine Wilson, Water Trial Chair

The 8th annual PWDCC/PWDCOntario Branch Water Trials were

held this past weekend at Laurel Creek Conservation Area in

Waterloo Ontario.

We had a great turn out with 18 teams competing. The weather

was fabulous – with sun and minimal wind – great conditions

for all levels. This was a new site for us and it worked very well

for handlers and dogs alike.

I would like to extend a hearty thank-you to my committee

members who worked tirelessly – the trial ran smoothly and

everyone seemed to enjoy their trialing experience.

A special thank-you

to our judge

Catherine Gadd –

she was a pleasure

to work with and

made everyone feel

comfortable and

was so encouraging

to all the

competitors.

From Brenda Brown, Water Trial Secretary

Good old perseverance won out the weekend of our trial!

Friday’s fun match had to be cancelled when we could not

launch the boats due to 3 foot high waves and winds. But when

we cautiously peeked out our windows Saturday morning, the

weather looked promising.

Due to a very accommodating judge and participants we were

able to proceed with the fun match and trial on Saturday.

It was a very successful trial!

We had 43 entries over the 2 days from 12 families. We had

21 fun match entries and $30 in donations. Plus various

donations over the weekend by many families including ones

not even entered! The get together feast Saturday night

featured enough food and variety, including salmon, smokies,

burgers, etc. that it was surprising we could get up and move

the next day for another round of water.

I am very proud of everyone who pitched in to make this first

PWDCC Water Trial in Alberta a great success. Thank you to

everyone!

Old Business

Amendment to Breeder Listing UpdateEmail discussion on re-thinking the requirement tohave ALL LITTERS reported to the Breeder Contact.We are thinking that perhaps a better course wouldbe to ask breeders participating on the Breeder Listto report all litters (and supply the health testing onthe breeding pair).

The other requirements that all on the Breeder Listmust now participate in the New Puppy IntroductoryOffer and that IC is now a required test for at leastone of a breeding pair will remain as new initiatives.

And the reason?Although, in principle, I understand our motion andapplication to all breeders whether they are on theBreeder List or not, in practice:What do we do if there is an oops litter without fulltesting?What do we do if someone uses a stud under 2, juston the hip prelim?What do we do if someone doesn't do all the testing?Are we going to be in a position of 'throwing peopleout of the club'?Are we going to have people who do the testingobject to us 'looking over their shoulders'? TooOrwellian and big brotherish?Are we going to polarize our membership and in asense destroy our club?

Motion by Roslyn: To Amend the motion from theFeb. 10th meeting to Breeders who participate inthe PWDCC Breeder List whether they use the LitterDue listing or not must submit all litters and therequired and recommended health testing to theBreeder Coordinator. Seconded by Henri. Approved.

Report of the Water Trial CommitteeThe committee met Thursday May 5th (teleconfer-ence) Cathy Gadd is Chair, Mindy Selby is Board liai-son, Audrey Hawthorne, Tammy Hibberson, LorraineWilson are members.

Mindy spoke to the committee's questions:how the Committee is governed: such as how manymembers (max, min), how long a term, how many

consecutive terms, how do we cycle on, off so thewhole committee isn't changing out at once, regionalrepresentation requirements and anything else.

Email motions:1. Roslyn moves that the PWDCC authorize an ex-penditure of up to $2,000.00 to construct a customdouble boat trailer which will be located in Ontario,seconded by Herb. In favour: Judy, Henri, Lori,Karine. APPROVED.

2. Roslyn moves that the PWDCC Board appointGlenda Newton as a board member and PWDCCdirector, Quebec, for the current term of2011/2012, seconded by Herb In favour: Mindy,Judy. APPROVED.

New BusinessMindy announces a new Water Trial that the PWDCCWater Trial Committee has approved the first AlbertaWater Trial, out of Edmonton September 3/4 2011,Judge Sarah Kahn

Andy Gamache will get the boats, trailer andequipment from Mavis McClintock on VancouverIsland

The WT committee is looking for direction ongovernance from the board. Questions like:TermsTurnoverBy Laws state that committees of the board are ap-pointed, there is no specification of time commit-ment. Some overlap would be appropriate to makefor smooth transitions. Are representation from everyregion important.Article 5 By Laws talks to standing committees, veryopen ended, not much specificPerhaps terms could best be modelled on board par-ticipation rules. There are no real committee rulesand perhaps the board should consider formalizingthis.

National SpecialtySelection of judges, the panel is very good and weshould be able to select from the panel without addi-tional expense to the club. The format we follow is:Selection of Sweepstakes judge is again abreeder/handler judgeWe consider gender, locality in selection.Roslyn will distribute a roster asking board membersfor additional selections for Sweeps, Specialty andBooster and once this is done the members will vote.All sitting board members should be excluded.

AGMPostponed until 2010 financial statements are com-plete, the final three months will be done at the endof May, and then a notice can be sent out with 60days notice. So August looks like a likely date. Thiswill be a phone in teleconference.

New Business

Water Trial Committee meeting. The Alberta WaterTrial is approved and planning is moving forward.The location for the Ontario Trial is still beingfinalized. The Water Trial Committee is still lookingfor guidance on governance. Mindy will come upwith some guidelines for their discussion. Requestfrom Alberta to have a separate bank account for theAlberta Trial. Roslyn responded that as it was aPWDCC trial, the monies should flow through ouraccount. They can deposit directly to our account,however, cheques are issued based on an approvedbudget and an advance can be given if needed andrequested. The PPM specifies $200.00. We havealready approved $350 for Andy Gamache for hisexpenses to retrieve the boats.

National SpecialtySelection of Judges (the board went in camera, asthis is confidential)

AGMThe meeting has to be postponed pending the state-ments being finalized.

Translation of PWDCC New Puppy Offer and Web siteKarine reports that people are interested in the Wa-terlog. If we translate anything why not start withthis? Or should we choose just a part to translatesomething relevant to areas where Franco-Ontariansand Quebecers are located? With production of thenewsletter, it might be difficult to keep the scheduleintact. It would be expensive to hire a translator. Idon't know if translation of the Puppy Offer materialwould be helpful. Perhaps we should start with theweb site, as it's static and it could be done sectionby section. Perhaps have the standard, the CKC hasnow done that so that could be done right away.Then perhaps do “About the Club” or “AboutPWDs”. We can ask other French speaking membersto help and put together a timeline for this. Glendavolunteers her husband to help.

Judges’ EducationKarine inquired what do we have? We have a Judges'Powerpoint presentation that shows the key charac-teristics and standard and it has been used on sev-eral occasions. Judges and the CKC are very specificabout what is required to credit judges with educa-tional credit. We have hands-on dogs to demo therange of coat, colour and size. Roslyn will distributea PDF copy of the presentation. Can this be usedwithin the club for our breeders? Isn’t this just asharing of knowledge. Perhaps at the Specialty?

From Ontario2011 Agility Association of Canada NationalChampionships Results

From Frank and Gayle Squires who recently competed with

their two dogs, Belouro’s Chauncey, MADC, AGDC and

Belouro’s Chase, MADC, SGDC.

“There were five porties from across Canada in total, Chauncey

was definitely first of them. Chauncey finished 11 out of 50

dogs in his jump height (26”), 1 place away from a podium

finish (he would have been 9th actually but for the difference

of one knocked bar!).

Chase finished 39th out of 122 dogs at his height (22”)!

Which was really great and as he is in the most competitive

grouping it was a way better finish than we had anticipated.

They both were just unbelievable really… they did everything

I asked of them in wonderful style, speed and energy level!”

“Chauncey on Deck, Chase in the hole!”

This is the sound of the gate steward at an Agility trial. It’s also

the sound of manic butterflies in my tummy and adrenaline

surging in my normally pretty well balanced chemical make up.

The boys and I are getting ready to run the next course!

Belouro’s Chauncey and Chase qualified at the Ontario AAC

Regionals this spring in order to participate in the Agility

Association of Canada, National’s Competition held this year

at Burl’s Creek north of Barrie, Aug 5-7.

The actual competition was held Saturday and Sunday, with

Friday being a warm up day. Each “team” (dog and handler)

compete in three separate classes: Standard, Jumpers and

Gamblers each day. These events use jumps, tunnels, A-

frames, teeter totters, dog walks and weave poles to create

unique challenges for the dog and mind bending tasks for the

handler.

“Standard” uses all the equipment positioned in counter

intuitive locations on the course. This is designed to make the

handler and dog execute a variety of moves, changes of

direction and pace, while (hopefully) successfully completing

the variously placed obstacles on the course within the span

of the appointed Standard Course Time (circa 60 seconds!).

While surprisingly few of our breed participate in this enjoyable

sport, PWDs are extremely talented at doing Agility. Their high

energy level, desire to please, intelligence and athleticism are

particularly well suited to the game. It is common within our

Barrie based training group (a wide mix of dogs though

dominated by border collies and other herding breeds) to hear

comments from fellow participants with MUCH more

experience than I, affectionately complaining how unfair it is

that we have such brilliant dogs!! And how Chauncey and

Chase appear to do anything and everything I ask of them on

the agility course! And when I lose my way (which I have done

on more than one occasion) the boys seem to figure it out for

themselves!!

It really is true, that with what seems to have been a minimum

of effort on my part Chauncey and Chase have each achieved

significantly competitive results in Agility, and now also at the

National level.

Handler teams came from across Canada for the Nationals,

having qualified at their respective Regionals. The year’s

training, trials and games culminate in this final series of

games and for some of us the pressure can be a wee bit

intense! (Not for the dogs – for them it’s just another couple

of days of fun with their humans!)

Saturday and Sunday games start at 6 30am. So it’s up at

4:30 am (nobody should have to do this) in order to arrive at

Burl’s Creek in time for the course “walkthroughs.”

“Walkthroughs” are a period of 45 minutes where the handler

(minus dog!) is permitted to walk the three courses in the early

morning fog and dew, (rubber boots recommended) that he/she

will run with their canine partner over the course of the day.

Course strategy is plotted at this time and decisions are made

by the handler about the best ways to deal with the particular

configurations of equipment as they are laid out on the course.

As there were approximately 600 dogs competing, Saturday

and Sunday were long days. While having two dogs running

kept me twice as busy as some, I enjoyed getting to run three

courses twice each day!

Both Chauncey and Chase accomplished far more than they

ever have before in any Agility trial, so it was really a thrilling

weekend for us!

PWDCC Waterlog www.pwdcc.org SEPTEMBER 2011 15

“Jumpers” is mainly jumps and tunnels and is very fast. One

of the challenges for this handler, in the midst of tight turns

and disorienting changes of direction, is to remember where

the 20 or so obstacles ARE in order to direct the dog to the

next obstacle successfully. The whole jumpers course takes

about 30 seconds… so there’s not a lot of time to bring out

your GPS!!

“Gamblers” is a particularly challenging class where you are

expected to SEND AWAY your pet (who you’ve previously likely

trained to stick by your side,) over, through and around

obstacles “remotely” at a distance of up to 20 feet from you.

The dog has to leave the handler behind the “gamble line” and

has 20 seconds to complete the sequence of obstacles at the

end of the gambler’s course. It goes by fast!!

In each event, the goal is to run “clean” that is, to successfully

take every obstacle and jump in their proper sequence, clear all

the jumps without knocking bars and to run fast, as the “team”

is scored both on accuracy and speed… but no pressure!!

It’s fun for the dog and the handler… and very challenging for

both. Things can go very right or very wrong in a hurry, and

without good coaching and instruction, it’s sometimes hard to

know why! There’s lots to learn, but it’s fun to see progress in

developing skills and improving performance.

Sniffingacrossthecountry…

Agility is a sport where there is no limit to how much your team

can improve. This game can really grab hold of you, what was

initially a mild interest in a fun activity that promised to help

with excessive portie energy and brains, has become (for me at

least!) a border line addiction to the adrenaline rush of running

a challenging course with my best canine friend(s) beside me!

I should point out, that if you are interested in exploring this

activity, there is lots of room to do beginner agility on a casual

basis, non competitively, just for the simple fun of doing

something different with your canine partner.

We’ve also made a lot of great friends in the agility world, and

that is just one more way that Chauncey and Chase have been

such a gift in our lives.

If your life has been so blessed to have a Portie in your home,

and you are at all inclined to take on a new fun challenge I

highly recommend you check out this enjoyable past time!

Your PWDs will thank you for it!!!

The 2011 World Dog ShowJuly 7 French National Championships andJuly 8 World Show for PWDs (Group 8)

Roslyn Eskind, John Brown and Mindy

Selby decided a dog show in Paris was not

to be missed especially if it was the World

Show where 36,000 dogs were expected!

You can only imagine the logistics! With

support from Mindy Selby, our ‘kennel help’

and Danik Dancause as our handler we set

off to conquer Paree.

We were happy with our results, Ruby, Ch

Seabury’s Goodby Ruby Tuesday, RCAC was

Reserve Winners Female at the French National Show, and was second

in her class on both days. Nash earned an Excellent rating at the World

Show although the Portuguese Judge lamented he didn’t have enough

coat and to bring him back to him when he had a longer coat!

Also attending was Donna Gottdenker and her dogs’ results were

Claircreek Emilio Robusto 1st in Open Males and Winners Male for the

French National Show and 4th Open Male for the World Show. And for

both shows: Claircreek Dolce Cordelia 3rd Open Female and Claircreek

Vesta Da Cozhina 2nd

Intermediate Female.

’’Way To Glow Da Pedra Da

Anixa” was Best of Breed

and Best in Group winner,

owned by Ana Santos of

Portugal

Interestingly in France the

curly and wavy coated dogs

are shown separately. It

was fun seeing the European PWDs, the profuse coats, the ‘style’ of

dog shown, and making contacts with breeders from England, France,

Portugal, Sweden, Holland and Italy. Also interesting was seeing breeds

not usually seen in North America, but frankly it was difficult to find

time to really see the show.

After the show we spent time in the Loire, then back to Paris for some

well earned vacation time. The dogs enjoyed the cafés and fine

restaurants. The park at the

Eiffel Tower allowed them to

stretch their legs. Now their

resumés include a trip to

France, enjoying café dining

and chic Parisian hotels!

Keith Phillips and Arlene Phillips and

Tammy Hibberson, all from Vancouver

Island, attended the Pacific Northwest's

Water Trial the last weekend of June at

Deep Lake. The weather was a little

chilly but the trial was beautifully

organized and everyone made us feel

really welcome. The Washington crew

was extremely supportive and

encouraging to us folks from the north.

“Sophie Phillips” earned her Apprentice

Water Dog title with Keith handling her.

“Tulips Downey” earned her Working

Water Dog title and “Riglee Hibberson”

earned a Versatility pass both days,

Tammy handled Tulips and Riglee.

LATE ADDITION: Riglee earned HIT at

the Nanaimo CKC Agility Trials Sunday

July 10. (didn’t know as we left the tria

after our runs!) It was Riglee’s first

weekend in Excellent. There were lots of

experienced people at the trials who

offered help with course walk throughs

and strategies for negotiating the

challenging sequences. It was great to

have the help and I’m thrilled Rigs

pulled off her first Agility High In Trial

at seven years young.
