Biography |
||
I have been involved in purebred dogs since the age of 10. I am a second-generation dog person; my parents
exhibited Poodles. I assisted by showing the usually untrained Standard Poodle puppies and I participated in
Juniors. In my teenage years, I worked after school for Lynn and Dorothy Welsh in a kennel full of Poodles and Rough Collies. In my late teenage years, I went to work as an assistant to Denny Kodner, an all-breed handler, and worked for her for about six years. Mrs. Kodner showed primarily Working and Sporting breeds, including a large number of Best in Show winning German Shepherd Dogs. I then went out on my own as a professional handler. I was a handler for about 25 years, showing a wide range of breeds. I have finished dogs in every Group and have had Best in Show dogs in Sporting, Working, Hound, Terriers, and Non-Sporting breeds. I began judging about 1996, being approved for 13 breeds, primarily Terriers. I am now approved for all Sporting, Working, Terrier, and Non-Sporting groups, and several Hounds. I have judged throughout the United States, including five times at Westminster, including the Terrier Group and the Working Group. I also had several assignments at the AKC Royal Canin show. My experience also includes shows in Canada, China, Taiwan, Poland, Finland, Columbia, Venezuela, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Mexico, and Spain. |
