Saluki – Featured Kennel – Ulmarra

Saluki's Name of Kennel / Prefix / Affix: Ulmarra - I have had this prefix since arriving in Ireland but bred under Beklyn when in Australia What age were you and how did you become involved in the world of Dogs? We have always had dogs as pets then as a youngster my Mother showed a Corgi for a year or so. I first became interested in showing when I worked for a vet at age 17. The following year I bought my first showdog. As I am not a very 'sporty' person I loved the way I could actually show my own dog and participate in a sport. I have been showing since 1974 but did have about 3 years break in the mid 80's when the two-legged family grew! I did not judge in Australia but was involved in Breed and local clubs as secretary and newsletter editor. I have started judging in Ireland as I have noticed many people who have not been in dogs many years doing so and thought that it is not right to complain if i am not willing to join them! What Breeds of Dogs have you had o…

Breed Village – Pet Expo 2011

As you know there has been a lot of negative comments towards certain classified web sites in Ireland and the lack of policing and standards when it comes to the animal, and especially dog section The majority of Show Dog people will not use these websites, and the Breeders / Kennels that do, state that you have to have a presence on these sites to inform Joe Public as to what a well bred dog looks like and where they come from. Pet Expo returns this year to the RDS on the 08th and 09th of October, and in it's fifth year, wants to make the Breed Village for dogs one of the highlights of the show After attending the last 2 shows in different capacities, I have seen the potential to reach out to a captive audience, and impart some information as to what a prospective dog owner should be looking out for. We all scratch our heads when we hear of people getting duped into buying a poorly bred dog from an unscrupulous breeder, so now is our chance to put ourselves well an…
