Call to Order and Welcome: President Hank Hartnek President Hartnek first introduced the National

AAA Stakes Manager, Tom Robin, who announced the Judges' decision as to the Best Woman Handler in the stake. Policy requires that for the award to be given there must be 3 women handling in the stake. The recipient is judged on handling ability and not whether the dog places. The award was presented to Lisa Pollock. Lisa thanked the judges and Larry & Red of the Blue Mt. Grounds for the excellent job of grooming the area this year. She thanked Bob Burchett, head marshal, for taking her on the ride of the courses on Sunday so she knew where to go when she handled her dog. She also thanked her husband for his excellent job of scouting. Welcome by Field Trial Chairman 1st VP Tom White

Lisa Pollock, Women's Handler Award Recipient.

Tom welcomed the Brittany family and talked about the camaraderie that is established year after year at the nationals and the continuation of the friendships throughout the year. He announced the names of the placements in the National Amateur and thanked the judges. Welcome by Area Manager: Hank then introduced area manager Larry McAnally who welcomed

the ABC members. Larry said the grooming of the grounds was helped considerably by the weather this year. The grounds were under water as much as 26 feet. The horse bridge, according to a depth finder, was 16 feet under water at

one time. 2000 quail were released on the 5000 acres, 15 miles of course, in September. Just prior to the ABC Nationals, another 1000 birds were released. Ten birds were released in each of the 100 release sites. Like the participants, the staff were pleased with the number of bird contacts this year. Thank yous:

Hank thanked Jake and his staff at the Bearcat for preparing our meals for us during the nationals. Mary Jo also mentioned and thanked Red Bailey who had taken a visitor from Northern Arkansas out on the course so he could see the stake from the dog wagon since he could only be on the grounds during the morning run and had not been there at breakaway to join the group. That is an excellent example of the cooperation we get from the Blue Mt. Staff.

Ex. Sec. Mary Jo Trimble then gave the invocation. Necrology Report: Secretary Mary Jo Trimble

Recognition of Life Members in attendance: Ray & Mary Jo Trimble, Janet Chase.

Mary Jo went over the procedure for nominating ABC Life Members and Hall of Fame. No nominations have have been received the last couple of years for Life Members. This honor should be considered for those people who have made contributions to the breed and their region of the country but perhaps have never participated on a national level. Members may circulate petitions, get 50 signatures from 3 regions and then bring those to the nationals to be voted on at the membership meeting by those present. Hall of Fame individuals have the added category of having contributed substantially to the national club. Only one nomination is necessary for HOF and the final votes are taken and the decision made by the ABC BOD. Recognition of Hall of Fame Members: Ray & Mary Jo Trimble, Janet

Chase and Wade Haines. Recognition of First Time National Attendees: Sherri Harder, Pres. of

the CA Brittany Club. Sandy & Chad Conners from AZ, and Mike & Pam Eagan from GA. Recognition of special guests: AKC Asst. V.P. Doug Ljungren and Field

Rep Gary Sanders were present earlier in the week. Second Vice President Marilynne Little discussed the selling of raffle

tickets and items for the auction. She encouraged everyone to purchase raffle tickets as income derived from their sale help defray the costs of the all the National Championships and National Specialty Show. Jim Chase spoke about the visit he and Janet had with Gorden Theilen

and the research being done through the Marvin Nelson Fund at U-C Davis Facility. Jim said that hopefully in the near future, we can get some of the research published in the American Brittany in a form that would be easily understood by the average ABC member. He encourage anyone who had a chance to visit the veterinary school and see the work they are doing in Brittany genetics. We'd like to keep this in the forefront of our membership. They need more DNA cheek swabs and blood samples. Our contributions are very much appreciated. Dr. Barbara Pepin, our show vet, is equipped to take blood samples at the specialty show. Jim also reported that we have right at $35,000 in the building fund at

the Bird Dog Museum. Please consider donating to this fund as well. Other Introductions: Hank introduced Linda Lang­

ford , our Membership Chair­person, Steve Ralph, our web­master, Judy Tighe, our AKC Delegate , and Mary Karbiner, our Statistician. These people help keep our club running on a daily basis. LaReine Pittman, Missouri Brittany Club Awards: Bill Burton. Bill relayed the purpose of

His plaque was accepted by his neighbor and friend Wade Haines who will give it to Ron's lovely wife Rachel.

ABC Hall of Fame Inductees

Ron Zook

Ron brought to the ABC a background of knowing how to deal with people and state officials. He worked for 40 years with the Ohio Department of Transportation as assistant director and chief engineer. Ron was a member of the American Society of Highway Engineers and held numerous offices and committee appointments among the Engineering Community. He was a member and former Chairman of State Government Engineers Committee, National Academy of Science, as well as other professional organizations which he served. With the American Brittany Club, he

served as an East Central Director from 1965-1991, Fourth Vice President from

5

1997-1999, and President from 2002-2007. During his time as President, he took on the added responsibility as head of the Magazine Committee. He worked to end the proposed USFWS mandates to end all field trialing on Pittman-Robertson funded grounds, in the end losing the fight to save Ohio's Killdeer Plains grounds. In 2002 his dog FC Pistol Pack 'N Walker won the National Amateur Championship. Ron was elected to Life Membership in the ABC in 2005 and the ABC Hall of Fame for Distinguished Members in 2007.

Ron served our breed and our organization and set an example of true unselfish dedication and hard work that will hopefully live on for years to come. He was a gentleman and a true leader. He was never afraid to make the tough decisions or to say thank you to volunteers for a job well done.

Ron passed away on March 1 0, 2008, the American Brittany Club lost one of its staunchest supporters and hardest workers. Ron took on his responsibilities as President with a passion to make the American Brittany Club one of the most efficient breed clubs in the United States. His drive to create excellence in every facet of the club and yet his ability to direct volunteers in a professional manner sets an example for clubs everywhere.

ABC Hall of Fame Inductees, continued

David Walker One cannot think of or discuss the sport of Field Trialing or the Brittany without

Dave Walker either being mentioned or discussed. He embodies the very essence of the sport and the Brittany Bird Dog. He has won more than 3000 placements. He has trained, handled and campaigned 3 National Champion Winners which have all been inducted into the ABC Hall of Fame. He has had 3 inducted into the American Field Brittany Hall of Fame. He has trained, handled, and won 3 National Futurity Run-offs and 1 Runner Up. Dave has won just about every major field trial, Classic, and contest from coast to coast.

As an ABC member he has held numerous offices and served on many committees for various clubs. He has judged in coutless AKC and American Field trials in the United States and Canada. He has always promoted the Brittany and has been a persuasive promoter of the sport of Field Trialing. He has conducted training seminars all over the United States and Canada in which he always stresses the importance of membership in a Brittany Club.

As an author, Dave has published a fine training book entitled The Bird Dog Training Manual. The Honorable Ken Kloepfer wrote: "Walker's excellent book can be used to train dogs from house pets to champion field trial dogs."

As a breeder Dave has bred 7 National Amateur Champions. He is an advocate of true field trial/open all age stock genetics and pedigrees. He has always emphasized genetically sound field trial stock. Dave is a man that is always on a quest to learn "new school" science while applying time-tested "old school" methods.

As a trainer, he has bred 7 National Amateur Champions and trained and handled 3 Brittany National Champions and has bred and trained another 5 winners of the Chukar Championship who have won 7 Championships. He has trained and handled 6 more Championships Winners in the National Endurance Stakes wherein these Britanys run for 1 Y2 hours. He has trained and handled over 1 000 AKC Field Champions.

Born in rural Alabama during the Great Depression; Dave had always had a love for dogs and a knack for teaching and training them to do what he wanted them to do: Hunt.

He enlisted in the Navy where he saw active duty in Korea. He retired from the Navy in 1973, secured a VA loan in order to go into the dog training business. He has always shared his knowledge and expertise with anyone who asks for help. He speaks, teaches and trains with unadorned common sense and through the years has trained hundreds of dogs and helped countless dog owners and handlers become better dog people. It has been said that, "Dave speaks Dog."

David A. Lincoln Like so many people, I got into Brittanys completely by accident. We had

Hounds back in the sixties, but as our children were growing up and requiring our time to take them to various activities we didn't get back into "dogs" until about 1979. Dave Jr. and I had a grade Brittany female that was a really good pheasant and quail dog. Dave Jr. went off to college, and like any good college Student, Dave Jr. felt he needed a bird dog. He bought an AKC Brittany from an ad in the paper, and was soon out training in the fields near Greeley CO. One day while he was training, Bill Cline the owner of Colorado Jumping Gypsy came by and told Dave Jr. that he should come to a field trial. Well you can start to see where this is going. Dave was running his dog off foot and was not having much success so he told me that if he had a horse he was pretty sure that success would follow. I told Dave to buy us a horse that wouldn't hurt us. So with a Quarter Horse mare and an old two horse trailer we began our "Field Trial Adventure".

To give you an idea about how green I was at this endeavor, one morning on our way to a field trial at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal in Denver, we thought we should grab some breakfast. I was driving and pulling our two horse trailer. We pulled into McDonalds and I proceeded to drive right into the drive-thru. Well as we all know NOW, that's a bad idea. There are two good parts to this. One: I have never since tried to pull a horse trailer thru a fast food drive thru and, Two: I can still remember the expression on the face of the girl at the drive thru window as we pulled up and over the curb and landscaping as we picked up our breakfast.

Well, since then, I have been fortunate enough to have handled dogs of our breeding to over 400 AKC placements, and have put 20 AKC FC or AFC Titles on our dogs.

We've bred a number of good dogs, and in fact, at a field trial in Ardmore OK recently, about half of the placing dogs had either Wee Dee, Poki Dot, Tee Bone, Scattmann or Jamar Reno backgrounds. We've bred several Futurity Winners and I have handled our dogs to placements in the Futurity, Open, Amateur, and Gun Dog Championships. I have attended and had a dog in the National Championship every year since 1985. I served on the Board of the ABC for 15 years and was for a time the Chairman

of the Magazine Committee. I presently serve on the Board of Directors of the Brittany Field Trial Hall of Fame.

Recently, I was lucky enough to be able to handle a dog of our breeding to an American Field Championship, by winning the US Open Brittany Championship in Ardmore OK. I consider myself to be one of the luckiest people in the World to be able to

have a loving Wife that not only tolerates my love of this sport, but actually participates with me.

ABC Hall of Fame Inductees

4xCH/5xRU FC/AFC HI SCOR JAC D RUFFIAN Sire: NFCIFCIAFC MarKar's Jac'sA Dan D

Dam: DC Countess Ruffin of JMR Breeder: Matt Runnels I Owner: Jerry Kendrick

Hi-Scor Jac D Ruffian was an outstanding dog in the field and certainly one of the best Brittanys of the 90's. Hank was a true All-Age dog and a solid bird dog. He possessed the strength, stamina, intelligence and speed that made him a competitor whenever he was on the ground. Many of you may not know of Hank, but those that competed against him and judged him over the years definitely knew who he was. Those that had the great fortune to breed a bitch to him know what he brought to their program and those that have had one of his get knew they had something special.

Hank was handled by Ben Lorenson for most of his career and was owned in the first half of his career by Richard Davis, then later bought and owned by Jerry Kendrick.

Hank has produced 13 FC, 12 AFC, 3 DC, 8 CH, 1 NGDC, and 4 dogs with Championship stake wins. He also has "get" with obedience, agility and hunt test titles and one certified as a search and rescue dog (not an easy achieve­ment). His Canadian get includes two CH, one FTCH and one AFTCH. One of his get was the #1 All Breed Pointing Dog in Canada for 2003 and 2004. He has grand kids on both sides of the border that have achieved field and ring titles.

Hank's achievements in the field are outstanding. He had eight wins in hour stakes and five RU's in hour stakes. He had 42 firsts and 104 total placements, defeating over 2075 dogs along the way. Hank's career ran from about January 1991 , when he recorded his first win, through November 2001 , when he won a 24-dog Open All-Age stake at the Tidewater Brittany Club field trial. He was 11 years and 5 months young then. Hank's achievements in the field are remarkable:

1993 National Futurity Field Runoff Winner 4x Winner of the Southern Open Brittany Championship 3x Winner of the Deep South Brittany Clubs All Age Dog of the Year 3x RU (1995, 1997, 1998) at the ABC National Open Championship 4th in the 1994 ABC National Open Championship 1992 Winner of the American Brittany Invitational Classic 1996 Winner of the Blackwater Brittany Classic 1999 Kasco/Royal Canin Dog of the Year 2000 Winner Deep South Brittany Free-for-All (inaugural running)

Hank was a pure All-Age dog and he worked at extreme range, exhibiting great stamina and strength. He was a powerful dog but he was easy to handle. Some have attributed Hank with establishing the All Age dog on the East Coast. Without a doubt, Hank clearly had a huge impact on field trials up and down the coast and in the south. He was show pointed with one Best of Breed win in his short stint in the ring before being pulled back into the field. It takes a special dog to take four placements at the ABC National Open Cham­

pionship. Hank came close to putting the trophy in Jerry Kendrick's front seat a time or two but was out of sight at the end. Bottom line, Hank had an illustrious career spanning almost 11 years.

Hank passed on his speed, his strength, his stamina and his bird finding to his kids. He also has a tremendous record of producing OFA Excellent hips and juvenile winners, those dogs that get people into field trialing for the first time. His impact upon the breed and upon field trials in general is still being felt and will continue to be felt for years to come.

Lloyd and Ella's comment is that in over 40 years of judging, reporting , and participation in field trials, they have never seen another dog that they always found exciting, often thrilling, but never disappointing.

Brittany Field Trial Hall of Fame Class of 2009 inducted at Ceremonies

February 7, 2009 • Grand Junction, Tennessee by Mary Crawford, photos courtesy of the Bird Dog Foundation

The Bird Dog Museum in Grand junction, TN , buzzed with excitement on February 7. Sunny skies and warm temperarures brought inductees, their families and friends to the Bird Dog Foundation for this great day. Brittany enthusiasts attended the ceremonies at which one distinguished person and one outstanding dog officially became Brittany Field Trial Hall of Famers, the highest honor given in field trialing. The greatest of the greats are enshrined here- both dogs and people who have made significant contributions to the field trial sport. We welcome the new Chairman of the Brittany Field Trial Hall of

Fame, Rick Smith . William Cartmell, now Honorary Chairman, handed over the reigns to him last fall and Rick is actively working to continue and gain support for this organization. After a buffet luncheon hosted by Purina, the Brittany Field Trial Hall

of Fame ceremonies began the presentation of Life Patron Plaques from the National Bird Dog Association to three longtime supporters of field trialing: Bill Cartmell, Bob Fleury, and Neil Mace. These recipients are honored as having contributed to the improvement of the breed and the sport over the years. Current hall of fame members present were recognized : Rheta

Cartmell, john and judy Webb, Delmar Smith , jim Chase, Bob Fleury, Rosco Staton and Frank Pride. Lloyd Conable with jim and janet Chase presented a complete

bound set of American Brittany Club magazines to the William F. Brown Memorial Ubrary at the Museum. These books are donated in memory of Ella Conable, hall of fame member. Scrolls were presented to the two new Hall of Fame inductees ,

William Cartmell and Shady's Chik-N-Litde.

Person inductee, Bill Cartmell. With Bill holding his induction scroll and his wife, Rheta, holding his portrait, they are from Booneville, Arkansas.

William Cartmell Bill grew up hunting with his father and, after hearing about this new dog from France, he drove to see this great breed of dog in action. After acquiring his first Brittany in 1962, he joined the Upper New York Brittany club, was smitten by the sport of field trialing and began to compete in Brittany trials .

15

Bill soon became involved with promoting and establishing one­hour Brittany stakes notably the International Brittany Championship and the US Open Brittany Championship. For many years thereafter, he pushed for endurance Brittany stakes, writing articles, studying statistics and encouraging breeders to breed and produce dogs that could compete in hour stakes. Bill was even more dedicated to another of his goals ... the

establishment of a Brittany Field Trial Hall of Fame. He promoted the Hall of Fame idea and became the driving force behind its establishment. He, along with Rheta, managed this Hall of Fame for many years , from the nomination process through the induction ceremonies at the Bird Dog Museum. o one deserves to be Hall of Farner more than Bill Cartmell.

Dog inductee, Shady 's Chill- -Little. Owners, Clem & Marilynne Little of Enumclaw, Washington holding her scroll and portrait.

Shady's Chik-N-Little Chikie, owned by Marilynne and Clem Litde, was one of the top all age contenders in the country. A powerful running bitch with 18 firsts out of 47 total placements. She was a child prodigy- winning puppy & derby points at just 7 months of age and placing 2nd in her first Open All Age stake at just 13 months. She competed in the . ational OM Championships until she lost part of her lung to a weed seed and was retired at 8 years of age. Chikie's bigges t accomplishment was her contribution to the

Brittany breed. She produced 6 litters by 4 different sires and became known as a "Blue Hen" producer. Her record of production increases daily with one-hour winners still coming three generations later. She produced in the first generation 7 American FC and 4 R-U, and 12 one-hour winners with a total of 68 hour placements. The two most notable progeny are : NFC, 8x American FC, R-U

NAFC, DC/AFC Shady's Tla Maria with 22 hour placements, and 3x American FC, 5x R-U American FC Tequilajoker'sjose Cuervo with 14 hour placements. The Bird Dog Museum should be visited by every bird dog lover! It

is one of a kind and first-time attendees are always amazed. Exhibits range from display cases of trophies, to sections devoted to various breeds and walls covered with plaques, hall of fame dogs and people. One of the most fascinating rooms is devoted to a taxidermist 's preservation of wildlife where shelves are filled with various game birds and small game.

''To be enshrined in a Hall of Fame is the greatest achievement in the field trial sports."

IN SEARCH OF CINNAMON Against Fleas, Flies, Ticks and Mosquitos

Solid Gold researches the ingredients that go into its products very carefully. The owner, Sissy Harrington-McGill, recently went to India to study ayurvedic herbs. The biscuit treat, Solid Gold's Cinnabone Biscuit for dogs, was of a special interest.

Sissy has been breeding, showing and raising Great Danes for almost 50 years. Her dogs are fed at 6am and at 6pm. We all go to bed at around lOpm. If she forgets to give them their night-time biscuit, around 2am, a very loud yawn is heard saying, "I'm starving to death. Feed me my biscuits:'

Then, they go back to sleep through the night. Their people are well trained! Of all the five biscuit recipes, Cinnabone Biscuit is the all-time favorite. South East Asia is known for its cinnamon. Nothing

is too good for our fur kids. Cinnamon information first appeared in Chinese writings around 2800 B.C. It was given to people for a variety of ailments.

It helped with kidney, liver, and heart problems. It was used to keep meat from spoiling and kept disease from spreading due to its anti-bacterial properties.

In the first century A.D., Pliny, the Elder, thought that cinnamon was so valuable that 350 grams of cinnamon were equal to 15 times the value of silver.

Medieval physicians used it for respiratory problems such as coughing and sore throats. They didn't know how effective it was for bacterial infections. They just knew that I worked.

Cinnamon was thought to have an anti-aging use, since it slows down the deterioration of cells. Today, cinnamon is used for weight control and Type II diabetes. The Bellville Nutrition Center is under the auspices of the

U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. Their 2003 study found that cinnamon lowered glucose, triglyceride, LDL cholesterol as well as improved diabetes problems.

The department also found that it helped with insect problems.As an additional bonus, the department found that even after the experiment was over, all the beneficial effects continued for 20 more days.

A professor of nutrition at the Public School of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health was amazed at the long lasting results. Dr. Anderson of the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture said, "Cinnamon makes cells more sensitive to insulin:'

Cinnamon contains sulphur, the seventh most prevalent substance in the human's and dog's bodies. Dogs love cinnamon. Fleas, ticks, flies and mosquitoes hate sulphur.

In 2004, the island of Taiwan found that if they sprinkled cinnamon around the island, it killed mosquitoes larva more effectively than DEET, a common pesticide. On July 14, 2004 a recommendation was made from the Agriculture and Food Chemistry Dept. in Taiwan to use cinnamon to repel insects. Yet, if the dogs found the cinnamon and ate it, it wouldn't hurt them. Dogs love cinnamon.

From Sissy's notebook about India in the spring of 2008, she tells what she observed. "The elephants and camels are common beasts of burden in the city of Bombay (now called Mumbai). They poop all over

as they walk along. The sacred white cows stop traffic and walk into the street, into shops-pooping all the way. Traffic comes to a dead stop as the cows wander across the streets.

At night, women come out and gather up the poop, mix it with straw, dry it out, and use it for fuel for cooking. In the early 1800's in the U.S., pioneers also collected Buffalo Chips and Cow Pies for the same reason.

The chips were so valuable that they were shipped to various ports as cargo. At first, they were stored into the bottom of the ship's hold. But they produced methane gas. So, if someone approached the chips with a lighted lantern, it exploded.

So sailors marked on the ship's walls STORE HIGH IN TRANSIT to let the air circulate. Later on, the abbreviation S.H.I. T. was used.

I always thought that expression was used by dog handlers as they left the ring, if they didn't win.

Solid Gold Cinnabone Biscuits are available in 2.5 pound reusable buckets with handles, or 1 pound jars. The other ingredients are barley, lamb, oats, fish, and garlic and sea vegetation.

Our other biscuits are Dragon's Teeth to clean teeth, Dragonett to clean little teeth, Dyna-Bones for the eyes and diabetes and Natur-Bone Biscuit for memory, circulation and weight control.

IOWA October 18, 2008

Rose Hill, lA Submitted by Mark Hunt, HTS

The Iowa Brittany Club held its fall Hunt Test on October 18-19, 2008 on the Earl Stout Farm near Rose Hill, Iowa. We had 24 starters on Saturday and 20 on Sunday. Attendance was up from last year and it was encouraging to see five new participants which had not been to one of our Hunt Tests before. The fog delayed our start on Saturday, but it finally cleared and we were about to start and run the braces and finish at a decent time that day. Sunday was a nice sunny day and a great day for the dogs to run. A special thanks to Earl & Beth Stout for allowing us to

use their land to hold this event and to Beth for furnishing the lunches. Thanks also to the judges, gunners, the Iowa Brittany Club Hunt Test committee members and all the participants that helped to make this a successful event.

LASALLE February 14 & 15, 2009

Des Plaines Wildlife Conservation Area The LaSalle Brittany Club held it's Spring Hunting

Tests on February 14 & 15, 2009 at Des Plaines Wildlife Conservation Area. The forecast for the weekend called for 30° weather on Saturday with snow possible and Sunday basically the same. We did get a dusting of snow Friday night, which melted mid-day Saturday with the sunny skies we had. It was still cold, but not unbearably.

We qualified one Master Hunter, three Senior Hunters and two Junior Hunters.

The weather on Sunday was colder and the sky was gray. Late in the afternoon, we had snow flurries that amounted to nothing.

We qualified three Senior Hunters and eight Junior Hunters.

SOONER Lake Murray State Park

Ardmore, Oklahoma October 31 - November 2, 2008

The Sooner Brittany Club celebrated its 56th continuous year of running during the November trial. Most of it at the fine grounds at Lake Murray State Park at Ardmore, Oklahoma. The grounds and facilities continue to improve due to the concerted efforts of the state park staff headed by Carol Jackson, the OFTCA headed by Preston Trimble and Quail Unlimited headed by Chris Cowl beck and all of the volunteers with chain saws, tractors and sweat. Thank you to all of you.

28

We had a fine trial attended by many friends and competitors from across the country. Scott Johnson, Ed Wild , Vic Carrington, David Downing, David Jones, and Ed Tillson represented the professional trainers well and captured most of the open placements except for second in the Open All-Age won by the venerable Francis Clasen of Hall of Fame, fame. Jimmie Tucker did a fine job with the dog wagon, Linda

Milam handled the lunchroom duties with her usual perfection and all went well. Thank you to everyone that helped. We had lots of bird work and lots of fine judges, the two ingredients that make for time well spent at a trial. Tom Milam, Jack Murphy, Dr. Robert Rankin, Mike and Sue D'Arcy were our judges and worked their way through delays of up to an hour and a half due to foggy mornings and got it all done.

We really like the clubhouse and again want to thank all the contributors that helped make it possible through money, materials and work. See you in the spring.

TEXAS COASTAL Boyd Ranch

Wortham, Texas November 7-9, 2008

Our fall trial was held on grounds close to Mexia, TX, leased by the Four Corners Association for trials and training. We thank this group of people for providing trial grounds to local clubs. The weather turned cooler Thursday morning but warmed up Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Birds were plentiful and the many ponds offered dogs a place to cool off during their runs.

We had a great time visiting with our friends from Texas who ran other breeds and supported our trial with 79 starters.lt was wonderful to see Sherry Ebert from N. Dakota who won the Open Gun Dog with an Irish Setter. All placements were well received and we sincerely thank our judges E. J. Hall, Conrad Plevnic, Kim Ochoa, Vic Carrington and Jim Crawford.

Club members pitched in and helped where needed: Larry and Patricia Mankin cooked soup, coordinated and presented the meals along with Michelle Lingan who also planted birds. Doug Arnold and Dave Jones cooked hamburgers Saturday evening for all participants; Sue & Bobby Armstrong attended and brought home­baked brownies for dessert. Robert Power, new to the sport, learned to handle quail and about horse tack. A huge "Thank You" to you all and we hope to see you in January.

BLUEBONNET PorterRanch,Hubbard,TX

November 14-16, 2008 Another gorgeous fall Texas weekend worked its magic

at the Bluebonnet Brittany Club Field Trial on Porter Ranch near Hubbard, Texas. November in Texas can bring any type of weather from extreme heat to extreme cold, wet to ice to snow, or just moderate fall days and crisp fall nights. We were lucky enough to have the latter for this last local trial before Nationals.

Many thanks to our judges for their expertise and long hours in the saddle. Even wild tree limbs attacking them did not affect their judgments. All stakes had lots of bird work although a few handlers wished their dogs had not had so much bird work. Congratulations to all dogs with placements but

especially to FC Dakota Luke, owned by Dick and Cindy Mantler and handled by Ed Wild, DC/AFC Blueridge Major Adventure, owned and handled by Laura Wilder, and Chief's It's Greek to Me, owned and handled by David

Jones. The trial could not have been completed in the three

days without the hard work of the BBC club members. In addition to judging, Tom Longfellow prepared dinner both evenings along with Melody Longfellow who took care of lunches all three days, helped Tom with the dinners and made her fantastic "slaw" for the evening meal on Saturday. Teresa Downing pulled the primary duty of dog wagon driver making sure that dogs made it to the line to keep the trial on schedule. David Downing, Laura Wilder, and Tina Travis took care of the puppy and derby courses. Kaye Moore assisted with the dog wagons when not doing the paperwork that must be done during the trial. Ken Moore planted birds for three days while also helping get dogs to the line and all of the other duties that the trial chairman must attend. BBC also welcomed its newest members, Rusty and Bonnie Calhoun.

Thanks to visiting pros Ed Wild, Vic Carrington, and Ronnie Sale for bringing their strings of dogs. Special thanks to club member and pro David Downing for donating his time to judge three stakes and forego running dogs in those and other stakes to help with the trial.

January 17-18, 2009 Once again the San Diego Brittany Club held its spring

trial at Camp H, Castle Butte Wells, California City, CA on January 17th and 18th. We had 102 dogs to run in two days of absolutely beautiful weather. Cool mornings with just a light breeze in the afternoons. It made for some comfortable time in the saddle with lots of bird work. We would like to thank our Judges for their hard work and dedication to the sport as well as all the people that helped with the food preparation, bird planting, setting and maintaining the courses and the tons of behind the scene work that had to be done to put this trial on.lt was a great time had by all.

CALIFORNIA January 24-25, 2009

California City, CA Reported by Margaret Horstmeyer

Prologue by Karen Nelsen The Prologue: I arrived in Camp early on Friday

afternoon, after having one of my GWP's put down that moming.l was looking forward to a great weekend filled with chaos, camaraderie and fun! After having set up my motorhome and my dogs, I meandered through camp passing out bracing sheets and just chatting up folks I hadn't seen in a while. It has become a tradition of sorts to go into "town" to the local Mexican restaurant to "kick off" the start of our trials. Friday night was no exception. In fact, there were thirty of us that evening. N; we were finishing up, I wandered to see what the folks at the "far end of the table" were doing, and suddenly felt light headed ... very light headed. To keep a long story short, and spare the gorey details, I lost consciousness four times before being carted off in the ambulance to the emergency hospital. I spent the next 2-1/2 days in the hospital, where I underwent every known heart and brain test known to God and man! Finding nothing wrong in either department, the doctors determined that I must have had some sort of food poisoning! I can 't thank everyone enough for taking care of me (Peggy, Sabrina and Nancy), my dogs (Linda and Toni), and my motorhome (Dennis and Paul) - and everyone for getting the trial off and running! Now, here's the part that I missed .. .

The California Brittany Club's Spring field trial was held at Camp H, California City, CA in the Mojave Desert January 24-25, 2009. On Friday we were treated to an aerial display of the B-2 Stealth Bomber from nearby Edwards Air Force base. Saturday afternoon Mother Nature arrived with her most unwelcome desert winds that persisted through Sunday's running . Due to an emergency Friday night, our field trial secretary and camp boss was absent so the troops really had to rally Saturday morning to get the show on the road. And rally they did!!! Peggy Doiron and Cindy Leffingwell were up early to start the coffee and soon all the tasks were

handled. Barbara Rosenberg, Linda McDonald and Toni Avessedian got everyone to the line in a timely manner. Bird bags were kept filled so that Cindy Leffingwell , Gregg Arney, Sheri Harder and Bill Landress could keep the courses planted. Delicious lunches were prepared by Sabrina Arney and Lois Mayhew. Bill Landress pleased the hungry crowd with his famous tritip. Our happy hour honored the recent Championships of Quail Rock Tough Enough (Dual CH), Wholly Smoke (Field CH) and Hurry On Moon Smoke Jake (Amateur Field CH).

Thanks also to Mary Reynolds from Loyall Pet Foods. She was on hand to answer questions and share some of her product with the competing dogs. A true evaluation of a club's dedicated workers is who's

there to help break up camp on Sunday afternoon!!!! You should have seen the team work shown taking down the tent in the gale force winds! Luckily, no one got blown away!

Thanks to everyone who helped! Thank you to our judges who donated their time and

expertise in evaluating the competitors. Congratulations to all the winners!

Give the gift of a new membership ... to give the opportunity to someone to learn about and participate in the American Brittany Club.

This membership campaign is really quite simple, we are asking every member to donate/ sponsor a membership in the American Brittany Club. This "gifted" membership might be to a puppy purchaser, or a friend/acquaintance who has a Brittany. All of us encounter people who may just need a little encouragement to become members. This can work, but it is totally dependent upon your support. Please use the ABC application form in the back of the magazine to

enroll a new member today. You may donate/sponsor multiple new memberships. The names of new members & ABC sponsors will be published in the magazine on a quarterly basis.

THIS IS OUR CHANCE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
