1 Scents & Nonscents August 2017 Teaching People and their Dogs for over 50 years. Inside this issue: Meeting Schedules Upcoming Events 2 News Notes 3 Double Q 4 Stewards Needed 5 The Pres Sez June Minutes Brags Fast CAT Fall Lure Coursing A Potato Chip Bag Can Kill Your Dog! The following is a collection of items in your house, yard, or garage that are a potential danger to your dog. The headline of this article is not a joke. Two Corgis have suffocated in potato chip-type bags. They stick their heads in the bag to grab up the goodies and find themselves unable to get the bags off their heads. Extremely sad, but true. Pools: Any type other than a small wading pool is dangerous. A particular danger is if the pool has a cover. EVERY pool, Jacuzzi, hot tub, etc. should have a solid barrier and locking gate. The covers are really dangerous because they look to your dog as if the footing is solid. They venture out onto the surface, slip under & never take another breath. [I personally know of a top winning greyhound that died this way. Ed.] Remember to keep pool chemicals in a secure place where your pet cannot eat them or lie on or near them. They are very caustic. Antifreeze: One teaspoonful can kill a dog. Never leave it accessible & don t change your car s fluids where it can spill and leave a trace. Rat Poison: Any type of poison is obviously very dangerous. Don t think your dog cannot get into or fit into a particular space he probably can! Ingestion of rat poison results in thousands of calls to the Poison Hotline each year. [Here it is midsummer and I ve just discovered a mouse in my house so watch out all year!] Insecticides: Off, Fly-tek, ant poison, plant insecticides, lawn fertilizers, and weed-n-feed products are all poisonous if the grass is eaten. They can also be absorbed through your dog s feet if he walks on a lawn that is treated. Loose Change: Pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters all contain zinc which will slowly leach into your dog s system after being dissolved by stomach acid. Asprin: Aspr in, Ibupr ofen, Tylenol in particular, antihistamines, nose sprays, etc. are dangerous to your pet and should be kept away unless their use is advised by your veterinarian. Don t forget those small bottles in your purse or pocket. Flea Spray: Be careful with new flea spray and with mixing products on your dog. Too much of the wrong mix can kill. Some breeds are also much more sensitive to these products. Corn Cobs: Squirrel feeder s are cute, but the cobs that the squirrels leave may be eaten by your dog. If eaten, they will almost certainly cause an intestinal blockage and expensive trip to the vet! Acorns, walnuts, pecans, etc. will also cause the same problem. Cleansers: Household cleaning supplies such as Drano, Lysol, Mr. Clean, Brillo pads, are all dangerous to your dog and should be kept out of reach and not just under the kitchen sink which is often quite accessible. Treated Wood: Wolmanized wood, used extensively for decks, fences, etc. has been treated with arsenic to repel insects. Be sure your dog cannot chew any of this type of wood. A few swallowed chips can kill. Also be careful what mulches you use on your garden or around plantings. Chocolate: A small amount, especially the semi-sweet kinds, can be deadly. Hide the baking chocolate and candy bars up high. Again, don t forget the goodies in your purse. [Ask Jeff or Cathy Robb about this danger!] Paint: Paint, paint thinner, cleanup rags, furniture stripper for all those summertime projects could kill your dog! Be careful! Plants: Both indoor and outdoor plants can be poisonous. The following are dangerous: Daffodil bulbs, Japanese yew, Diffenbachia, Rhubarb, Lilies of the Valley, nightshade, caladium, castor beans (very pretty and highly toxic), Christmas rose, mistletoe, poinsettia, philodendrons, diffenbachia, bleeding heart, fox glove, larkspur or delphinium, tomato Continued on page 5 Page 1 Back Cover

Pre-entries open September 1st and close October 16th, or you may enter day-of before noon each day.

3 Newsnotes From the Neighborhood Your Editor Important reminder: All SDOC classes are limited in size. To ensure a place, your completed and signed application, full payment, and proof of vaccinations must reach the appropriate SDOC registrar a minimum of one day prior to the class start date and prior to the time the class limit is reached. Receipt of the application does not guarantee a place in the class. ed applications are not accepted. To avoid misplacement, please staple your check to your application. See page 10 of this issue for all the information on upcoming lure coursing and CAT tests. All breeds of dogs, including All-Americans, are invited to attend. Get two CAT legs on one day! Janice Anthes is in charge of stewards for our Fall Trials. See page 6 for full information. Folks of all degrees of experience are needed. Arrangements can be made if you are also entering your dog. Come get a front row seat! SDOC WEBSITE ADDRESS IS Be Sure to Check the Website for complete class information, class applications and special updates. Loving a dog is a choice. We can survive quite nicely without one another. A dog does not propagate our genes or carry on our family name, does not try to be like us or live up to our accomplishments. Rarely do parents relentlessly pressure their adult children to produce a dog before they die. A dog will not support us in our old age. But a dog will love us deeply and unconditionally from the moment it enters our life. We will be the most important thing in its life. Neither owner nor dog will ever hold a grudge against the other for more than a few minutes. No festering family feuds. A dog will sleep with us even when we snore and forgive us when we tromp on its tail even though it cannot comprehend how we could be such oafs. A dog will spend its life trying to figure us out, and it will sometimes succeed at it to such an unnerving degree that we believe it knows us better than we know ourselves. And if that doesn t keep us honest, I don t know what will. From : Always By My Side, Life Lessons by Edward Grinnan.. P Ice Cream Social - MMMM, GOOD!!! Side dishes for the July Ice Cream Social. Just picture this with all the ice cream! Training Year (per the SDOC Training Regulations) For these purposes, the training year will be from December 1 to November 30 of the following year. The total hours of any class which begins on or before December 1 will be credited to the following training year. Page 3
4 DOUBLE To register for any Agility class, contact: Stephanie Kourestsos nm.org or REMINDER: Drills cost $10 per dog per session. To register for any Obedience class, contact: Betty Pearson hotmail.com Q Instructor Incentives SDOC must reply on volunteers to instruct training classes. Comparable training is provided by several for-profit organizations in the Albuquerque area. The private organizations have an advantage. They have professional staffs who receive instructional training. Our instructors must self-train to be current on the most recent dog agility handling techniques. At their expense including time, they read training literature, attend seminars and/or train at other locations. Certainly, the personal training improves their handling. We appreciate them sharing these learned skills with us. Why share? Many like to teach. For others, instructing classes reinforces their learning. Most all receive gratification from volunteering. It is amazing to us that SDOC has so many good instructors. In turn, we offer thanks at every opportunity, free classes, and for head instructors or assistants field privileges. Also, Instructors receive a gift at the end of the year and reduced price for the end of the year banquet. Every few years, we offer reduced rate seminars to our instructors. These incentives are much the same whether you volunteer the minimum of 16 hours or 60 hours a year. Everyone appreciates the incentives. For us the field privileges have been a great benefit. To improve the knowledge of our instructors, we have been thinking of affordable training opportunities. Currently, there are many online training opportunities. Perhaps, the club could acquire internet access to provide online seminars. This idea needs to be researched. Are our instructors interested? What would be the costs for the club? We are planning to have an agility instructor pot luck/ brain storming at the end of the training year. Our purpose would be to get more ideas on improving our agility training program. Your ideas are welcome anytime. Gene Tatum Page 4 Scents & Nonscents
5 Stewards Needed By Janice Anthes Dog events run on volunteers. Without them we would not have trials. There are lots of benefits to volunteering to Steward 1. You learn tons.

6 The Prez Sez By Betty Pearson To order SDOC t-shirts and sweatshirts, contact Estelle Metz Stay warm or be cool, in style! August is looking like it could be a busy month for us. Both Obedience and Agility have trials coming up in September and fun matches the last weekend of August. All will be held at the Bernalillo Sheriff s Posse grounds on 2 nd St.. The Agility Match is Sat 26 th and the Obedience/Rally is Sun 27 th. Come out with your dog and practice where the trials will be held. There will be CGC testing on Sun. Premiums for the trials are on the web site and in the foyer at SDOC Obedience run thrus have started on Fri evenings going until the trials. There are drills for agility, obedience, rally and beginner novice being held, Check the web site for the one(s) that will help your and your dog s performance. New classes are also starting this month. The ice cream social meeting last month was great fun. Thank you, Peggy Chandler for organizing it. We had several members present for this and also to see the demonstration of Barn Hunt put on by Donna Crary-Johnson. With real rats no less. Those who were there had the chance to take their dogs up to take a look.. Have a good month and good luck to all of you who are trialing in any venue.. Stay cool. I don t know about the rest of you but a little cooler would be okay.. The next meeting is 25 th August.. Hope to see you there SDOC S Website By Sue Babcock The new event app for classes at SDOC was rolled out on August 1 st. The app allows visitors to the site to sort through the classes by category (agility, obedience, tracking, nosework, freestyle, and rally) as well as by type of class (ongoing or standard). To view the details of any class, just click on the title of the class on the calendar or in a list. The calendar and class listings are integrated, so you can be assured that the classes you see on the calendar match the classes in the lists. The hope is to make the experience of finding the right class for your dog easier. The name and phone number of the registrar for each class is also included in the class information. If you ever have questions about what class is best for your dog, these are the people to ask. In addition, we activated a new theme for the website, and slight organizational changes. Finding the information you need to register (fees, forms, classes, etc) is all available from one place under the Classes and Calendar menu item. I encourage everyone to click around the site to see how the new app and the new organization works. Page 6 Scents & Nonscents

9 Fast CAT Titles By Laurel Drew Fast CAT is sort of an addendum to the AKC s CAT sport. Having discovered that their dogs love to run, folks are asking how fast they are so AKC has decided to set up a straight 100 yard timed race for those who want to try. Lobo Lure Coursing Club will be offering a demonstration and possibly some practice runs the end of August in conjunction with their CAT Tests. Dogs run singly so there is no danger of anyone getting in a tangle. There is a handicap for dogs based on various height differences. In other words, a dachshund would get a handicap of 2.0 which would mean that he was running 2 times the elapsed time in comparison with a greyhound who would get a handicap of 1.0 (or just the elapsed time). The time is converted into MPH, and the MPH is multiplied by the handicap. I am not certain exactly how the points are handed out although I assume it is based on the MPH with the fastest dog receiving more points. The titles are: BCAT requires 150 points DCAT 500 points FCAT 1000 points FCAT# 500 additional points required for each #. Each year a listing of the Top 20 by Breed will be published on the AKC Fast CAT website and will feature the fastest dogs by breed by year for the national standings. Fast CAT is open to all dogs that are registered or listed with AKC in any of its performance programs and are at least 12 months of age. Bitches in season are not allowed to run. A dog can only be entered once per each event and will be examined for lameness, in season, fitness to compete, etc. at the event. This is all the same as for the CAT. This sounds like another fun event for all our dogs to try. We all know we have the fastest dog, but now maybe we can find out. Timing is done either by 2 stop watches or by a break-the-beam machine such as is used for agility. The lure is the usual white plastic garbage bag, and can be run either drag or continuous loop with the continuous loop being set up so that it won t interfere with the dogs. The LLCC (Lobo Lure Coursing Club) uses a fenced field so dogs won t escape; I don t know if the shorter area where the dogs are actually caught is even more fenced in. That s probably as clear as mud to newcomers, but you ll get it! The rest of the regulations for Fast CAT are the same as those for regular lure coursing and will appear in Chapter 14 of the AKC Regulations for Lure Coursing which is available from the AKC. So, folks, you who are interested can read the information on page 10 or this issue for more information and plan on going out to give it a try. There will be two CAT tests each day so if you are into agility come out on Sunday, and if you are into obedience, try it on Saturday. Have fun!!! SDOC Board Meetings are held on the Tuesday prior to General Membership meetings at the SDOC Training Building. Minutes are available for review by contacting the Recording Secretary at jbrozek@ swcp.com or at any General Membership meeting. Want to become a member?
