V4S 1C4 FAX: PHONE: info@compupets.com BC Branch 1 Here he introduces himself - I have lived with Irish Wolfhounds for forty years. Debbie and I have had some notable successes in the show ring, including major hound group wins and Best of Breed at Crufts. To have won the Graham Shield three times for Best in Show at the Irish Wolfhound Club Championship Show (UK) is particularly thrilling. We have bred and owned several influential stud dogs; it is wonderful to have owned and exhibited UK champion hounds of the calibre of, among others, Yankeedoodle, Jupiter and Galileo, and to see the extent to which their bloodlines have spread through their progeny. I love to watch fit, agile hounds hunting in rough country, and we are fortunate that the farm is a good environment to raise and exercise our hounds. I am constantly aware of the history and purpose of our breed, and keep in mind Captain Graham s vision of the hound when I am judging. In addition to my UK appointments, I have judged wolfhound specialties in several European countries and in North America; I also had the pleasure of judging our second breed, Bassets Fauve de Bretagne, at Crufts I have a huge affection for BC, so I am really looking forward to meeting you and your hounds in Chilliwack in September 2 BC Branch

2 SWEEPSTAKES JUDGE Donna Smith Taliesin Irish Wolfhounds Coopersburg, PA USA I am an Irish Wolfhound addict. Their intelligence, their strength as well as their companionship, loyalty and devotion have me hopelessly hooked. I can t really imagine ever being without one - preferably two. They are magnificent creatures capable of running down and killing prey or laying on the floor to be a baby jungle gym if is what makes their family happy. We currently live with 12 hounds ranging in age from 8.5 years down to 3 weeks. We bought our first wolfhound from Sam Ewing (Eagle) some 22 years ago. It was a unique education to be able to stand in a paddock full of teenage wolfhounds or puppies, racing around while Sam quizzed you on what you liked about that one. I was also fortunate enough to be mentored by Jacky Karpinski (Karn Irish Wolfhounds). She was an amazing friend to us and an amazing ambassador for the breed. Jacky was always on the lookout for the extraordinary hound, regardless of who bred it. She also taught me the value of the useful hound. That hound that was not necessarily the big winner or the one that takes your breath away but that hound that could contribute what was needed for your next generation. Through the generosity of other long time breeders and mixture of luck, perseverance and hard work, we have been honored to live with, breed and coown some extraordinary hounds. All were owner handled and shown sparingly. Over the years our hounds have won Specialties, won the breed at Westminster, won the breed at the Eukanuba Invitational, have been top 5 coursing hounds, therapy dogs, and one special hound that appeared in the Nutcracker ballet in Lockport, NY for several seasons. All of them have been cherished friends and family members. Over the years we have strived to produce athletic, hunting hounds that could still hunt and protect the family, if need be. Chasing the ever elusive, perfect, rough-coated greyhound-like hound, that is fit and fast enough to catch the wolf. That hound that is athletic and strong enough in mind and body to kill its prey and survive the encounter with little injury to itself. Thank you all for inviting me to go over your babies and adults. What a privilege and opportunity for me to be able to go over your youngsters.
