How to Battle Anti Breeder Legislation Around the US [caption id="attachment_14021" align="alignleft" width="446"] Jennifer Clark joins fanciers at an event in Washington DC.[/caption] Host Laura Reeves is joined by Jennifer Clark, AKC director of legislative outreach, to talk about legislation in Oregon and what's happening elsewhere in the country and why it matters that fanciers get involved. “For those who are not in Oregon, or may not have been following it,” Clark said, “what this bill basically said initially is that the state has to start regulating anyone who breeds and sells in the state. So if you sell one dog, you suddenly have to be regulated. We don't have any idea what these regulations are going to be. “That was a huge concern for us because why should someone who's breeding and raising one litter in their home be regulated and inspected by the state? A lot of times in states when they're regulating breeders, it's on a commercial level. They're regulating the large commercial facilities or people who are doing this professionally and not those who are hobbyists or financiers. “And there are very specific guidelines that are often in place, such as drainage in your floors and kennel setups and temperature records. All these things like flooring are great if you have a large kennel building, but what if that's your living room? Then how are you going to be able to comply? Does that mean I have to tear up my carpet because it can't be completely sanitized? Do I have to put a drainage system in my laundry room? And does that mean that state has to come in and inspect my kitchen because that's where the whelping pen is. How do we handle these questions? So that was a huge concern. AKC Government Relations, NAIA, local clubs and fancier reaction resulted in an amendment to state ‘more than two litters,' Clark added and the bill is currently not passed into law. You can track legislation in your state with AKCGR's fantastic tool HERE. [caption id="attachment_14020" align="alignright" width="307"] Clark's grandmother with her show bred Cocker Spaniel circa 1930s,[/caption] “(Legislators) need to understand this group of people and who you are and what you do. And that is what's going to make the difference to them because you are the ones that are going to be directly impacted. You are the ones who are going to vote, and that's why they need to hear from you. And that's why we've seen any change on this bill at all. And that's why it's slowed down a bit is because of everyone who has written in and called. And we hope that you'll continue to do so,” Clark said. AKCGR is holding a legislative conference to help people learn how to interact on this type of legislation. The conference is scheduled in St. Louis on Saturday, June 14. “We will give updates on legislation around the country, provide fun, interactive sessions on how to be effective advocates for your dogs and our sport, and discuss how clubs can make a difference in their community,” Clark noted.

This episode aired before the death of one of coon hunting's most successful and most colorful ambassadors. I hope you enjoy this replay from November of 2022.  This episode takes us to the Ozark Mountains of Missouri and Arkansas to visit with coon hunting legend Junior Lasseter.  At 73 years of age, Junior had amazing recall of events that led him from the Ozark hills to the major stages of competitive coon hunting, in the woods and on the bench. At one time in coon hunting history, there were many commercial coonhound and combination dog kennels operating out of the Ozarks.  Ads appeared in the classified sections of not only the tree dog publications but in major outdoor magazines as well.  Writers like Wilson Rawls created a narrative that the Ozarks were the cradle of coon hunting in America.  Lasseter's stories emanate from the same root and place him as the perfect visitant to the Gone To The Dogs microphone. Lasseter has owned National Champions on the bench in both the UKC, PKC and ACHA registries and has a final four appearance in the UKC World Championship to his credit.  He's the first, and perhaps only handler to win a pickup truck showing hounds.  Lasseter's hounds like Table Rock Flying Hawk, Table Rock Mundo, Jr., Biggerstaff's Little Buck, and Morgan's Tree Jamming Mundar fill the conversations in this episode.  Lasseter was known far and wide in the 80's when Steve began his career at the UKC registry.This episode is smothered with Ozark flavor, like cathead biscuits under a blanket of fried squirrel gravy. You'll enjoy Junior's stories.  You'll want to follow them to the source, and you will, where mountain music echoes off the ridges and swells up from the cold stream hollers of tree dog country. It's all right here so, enjoy! We would like to thank those who support this podcast. Special thanks to Alpha Dog Nutrition and Double U Hunting Supply for sponsoring this episode.

We're excited to share that major agility organizations around the world—including AKC, ASCA, CPE, FCI, NADAC, RKC, UKI, and USDAA—have come together in an unprecedented show of cooperation to support independent, evidence-based research into agility safety. These organizations are contributing data to the Canine Sports Science Consortium (CSSC), led by Drs. Arielle Pechette Markley, Abigail Shoben, Melody Moore Jackson, and Rachel Olson. The first study of its kind, this project focuses on contact obstacles—specifically the A-Frame, Dog Walk, and Teeter—and aims to identify the relationship between obstacle performance, number of runs, and reported incidents. The initiative was inspired in part by ongoing discussions around Dog Walk safety, including proposals to lower its height or widen the plank. Join us as Dr. Markley shares how this study came together, what it means for the future of agility, and how judges, trial secretaries, and show organizers can contribute to this collaborative effort. It's a major step toward making agility safer for all dogs, and we're thrilled to help spread the word. You Will Learn Why leading agility organizations are uniting to support data-driven safety research What CARIS is and how it will collect and analyze obstacle-related incident data How current debates around Dog Walk height and width inspired this research initiative What role judges, trial secretaries, and handlers can play in shaping the future of agility safety Mentioned The project announcement on the Canine Sports Science Consortium website Donate to help support dog agility research.

Fletcher, a retired Marine, started her journey by training her own Dogo Argentino as her first service dog. “Don't give up, but give yourself grace,” Fletcher said. “Grace is absolutely vital. And I wasn't very good at it. I get mad myself. You know, I train service dogs for disabled people and I tell them all the time, you know, you gotta be patient with yourself. And I give them some great advice. I'm not always good at taking my own advice. “I got my first Group One under Doctor Keating. And it meant so much to me because I was on the verge of not willing to do this anymore. I don't know if he'll ever know how much it meant to me to actually be in his ring and have a dog that I love so much be awarded. But it was amazing. “I didn't know anybody in the dog show world really. And it was a process, but a lot of people were very, very welcoming and guiding me. It's been a great learning process of figuring out how I can be in the ring with my disability. And again, advocating for yourself, you know, the AKC is not exempt from providing reasonable accommodations to us. "I hope to continue inspiring people to get out there and try and do whatever they can do. My goal is to help inspire other people to overcome their challenges and keep going. "We all have challenges and how we face those challenges I think is what makes all the difference."

We had epilepsy show up in our lines that were related and went looking for somebody to help us keep the good and get rid of this problem. And we were at a show in Columbia, MO, and went and talked to Gary Johnson at the university. And after about a year of bringing him samples and getting other clubs involved and helping to write grants and all this kind of stuff, he said, ‘You know, you just need to come work for me, so I changed jobs over epilepsy.

Steve lands the interview with one of his most-highly sought-after guests in this episode.  Al Metcalf of Barnesville, Georgia is a tree dog enthusiast like no other.  His transformation from a 32-year veteran of the Georgia Highway Patrol to what can only be described as the renaissance man of tree dog enthusiasts, Medcalf is a throwback to a time when men hunted for food and the tree dog was essential to their survival.   Medcalf's mantra “If it climbs, it's not trash” and his waste-not-want-not attitude toward tree game reveal the soul of a real hunter and woodsman, the kind rarely seen today.  Medcalf hunts a mixed bag of Plotts, Mountain Curs and Plott/Cur crosses, with little concern for popular breeds or bloodlines and proves, when the record button turns red, to be a storyteller par excellence.   You're going to love this episode.   We would like to thank those who support this podcast.

Don't let anyone tell you that your dog is bad just because they have a different idea on what makes a dog good. Every lifestyle is different; therefore, it would seem that expectations of the dogs we have in our homes should be different. There is no standard on what makes a good dog. AKC has put together their Canine Good Citizen test but in our professional opinion, that does not make a good dog, but a dog that can pass tests in a controlled environment. We also don't believe that if your dog isn't able to pass the test, that doesn't make them "bad." Nikki and Britteny talk about the different behaviors they need from their own dogs and how they see "good" and "bad." dogspeak101.comdogspeakgeek.thinkific.com

Originally designed for retriever breeds like Labradors and Goldens, these tests are open to pointing breeds as well. If your dog has a solid retrieve and a strong obedience foundation, they could be a great fit for these tests. I sit down with Jerry DeRose, an experienced AKC hunting test judge from Minnesota, to break down the different components of the test and share tips on how to set your dog up for success.

Kimberly Kelly Santini says it all in her tagline for her bio: Painter, Dreamer, Instigator. When I composed her bio for our podcast introduction, I learned that Kimberly is an artist that creates her environment not only for inspiration but for a springboard that propels her curiosity into new territories of nature. In this episode, she bullet points exactly how she does that and we feel our audience may be inclined to put some of those points in their own practice. I for one plan to pay more attention to my daily journal after hearing Kimberly talk about the how, when and why of her journaling process. I'm anxious to check out her YouTube videos on that topic, too. I'll put those links in the show notes for sure . Here is a formal bio for you to learn more about Kimberly:  Kimberly Santini  is formally educated as a painter, with a BFA in Painting and a BA in Art History, but worked a traditional career path for over a decade. She set up a home studio in 2001 and began with commissioned portraiture. In 2006 she committed to daily painting, a creative practice she continues today. Santini brings her unique voice to the easel with an unparalleled sense of color and spontaneity. She was honored as the official artist of the 2015 Kentucky Derby, has worked with the AKC on poster artwork, designed a wine label, and hung solo shows across the country.  A firm believer in community involvement, Santini is also in leadership roles with the Romeo Guild of Art and The Detroit Society of Women Painters & Sculptors.  Show Notes: Kimberly's Website Instagram Link Patreon for Kimberly Santini Kimberly's YouTube Channel Interview with Kimberly on CanvasRebel
