It
was another great field trial for amateur handlers. We had
106 entries which put us into the profit side of field trials.
Handlers came as far away as Louisiana and Kansas.
Stephanie won the
first annual "Field Fashion Award". Seems
she has a different wardrobe for horseback and walking stakes.
We had to delay the whole trial so that she could change her
clothes.

Fun Day & Club Meeting
May
20, 2006
The
attendance at the Fun Day this year was disappointing. However,
for those who did attend it was a great opportunity to have
some fun with your dogs.
Theresa and Ed
put a lot of effort into getting their property ready for
the day’s events. They have a lovely pond, large yard
area and trails cut into the woods. We started out doing some
water retrieving. The dogs loved it and the owners had fun
watching their dogs enjoy swimming and jumping into the water.
We also did some bird work. It was enjoyable to see even the
old dogs get into the act. The day ended with plenty of good
food and conversation

SPECIALTY
The
2006 Specialty has come and gone. Whew! How nice that 2006
is an event to reminisce about and June 2007 is now something
to look forward to. The entry of 75+ dogs was as it has
been in the past few years. This year to compensate for
the high numbers and the inevitable darkness, we held part
of the judging outdoors and the final classes indoors. Since
judging did not end until after 9:30, this move worked out
very well.
Financially,
this was one of our most profitable shows yet. This was
due in part to the high number of advertisers and the various
trophy donations made to cover trophy expenses. See below
for the semi-complete financial report.
Sweepstakes
was judged by our own Theresa Miller. She not only presented
a lovely picture herself, she made exhibitors comfortable
and chose lovely dogs who were very good representatives.
Thank you for accepting the assignment and having fun with
it.
Thanks
to the hard work of several individuals the Specialty went
smoothly.
-
We
had a new show secretary this year, Mary Lee Raines
(non-club member). Mary Lee has never even been to a breed
show before. She handled the job admirably and has learned
more than she ever wanted to know about dog shows ?. If
needed, she is ready to take on next year with a little
more understanding and lot more knowledge.
-
Margaret Schaefer did a lovely job on
trophies as she always does. The compliments on the trophy
table were many.
-
The
catalog, organized and printed by Rhoda Ezell,
was beautiful. With a record number of 26 advertisers,
the catalog was not only worth viewing it was quite profitable
as well.
-
Ann
Craig took on the raffle this year and ran with
it. The items were unique and made for a raffle to be
admired.
-
Cindy
Nix helped with the trophy distribution and Jen
Miller helped with catalog sales.
-
Diana
Boggs made a lovely snack and drink basket for
the specialty judge and helped get her ready and organized
before the show.
-
Rick
Bokanyi (non-club member) did his usual fabulous
job as ring steward, making sure that the right dogs ended
up in the ring and that all spectators knew the placements.
-
Mike Lifer sold candles to benefit rescue.
-
Jan
Wallace has become photographer extraordinaire!
The pictures for the website are fantastic and actually
put you there. The visual documentation is wonderful.
Make sure you check it out.
Thank
you each and every one of you. It has been a true pleasure
to work with you all.
Respectfully submitted,
Pam Williams

Welcome
Susan Hall to MVVC Indiana Vizsla rescue!
shall@secor.com
317-294-7292
My
name is Susan Hall, I live on the northside of Indianapolis and
work as an environmental consultant. I first heard about the Miami
Valley Vizsla Club almost three years ago when I started looking
for a Vizsla. There were no dogs avaliable for some time so I
got my first Vizsla "Abby," Labor Day of 2004. I feel
in love from day one! This spring I was on the website and saw
that Indiana need a rescue coordinator. I contacted Pam Williams
and that brings me to where I am today. I look forward to getting
more involved in the club and socializing Abby with other Vizslas.
I am also currently training to show in obedience and am thinking
of giving agility a try.
Welcome,
Jo Anne Davies, to Temproary MVVC Ohio/West Virginia Vizsla rescue!

Holly Hatfield, 502-266-7236 redrivervizslas@insighbb.com,
MVVC Coordinator & KY
The past
few months have been busy busy for rescue. I have taken over Rescue
Chair, we have a new IN coordinator, dogs coming in, and dogs being
placed, there's not enough "thanks" in the book to describe
how fortunate I feel to have the volunteers I have looking out for
the bottom line....the dog.
First I want to welcome Susan Hall as our new coordinator for Indiana.
To put it short, Susan got a baptism by fire of sorts, and handled
her first case with sheer professionalism. Welcome aboard Susan,
I look forward to working with you and value your contribution to
the welfare of Vizsla Rescue.
Next, I would like to thank all volunteers who have fostered, transported,
and helped place the dogs that have come through our program recently.
You truly are the heart and soul of the breed and by opening your
homes and hearts you truly define the bottom line....the love of
the dog. I look forward to working with each of you and am open
to your suggestions and thoughts on how to better our rescue program.
Finally...on to our successes.
Otis has been adopted to a young family in Louisville, KY. He is
adapting very well and they LOVE this dog. I had the opportunity
to finally meet this puppy and can without doubt say he is truly
living a spoiled Vizsla's life. Thanks Susan for offering to foster
Otis.
Dutch has found a home in Versailles, KY. He is the shining star
of the home and has wiggled his way into the hearts of all. Thank
you to Ann Craig and the Congleton family for helping foster this
lovely boy.
Bella has found her special home in Michigan. Thanks to Barbara
Fiocchi & Pam Williams for working with Caroline DeFore in placing
this special girl.
Champ went to his new home in May after spending some time with
Karen Fischesser.
Ginger decided to stay with Barbara Whitaker. Guess she wiggled
her way right into her home. Thanks Barbara for giving this lady
a special home.
Annie has been placed in a home in Michigan. Thanks to her foster
dad, Mike Lifer for opening his home to this girl.
Pam has
requested to resign from her seat as coordinator after years of
dedicated service. We have found Jo Anne Davies to fill her position.
I realize those are some BIG shoes to fill, but I am confident that
Pam will do an excellent job of welcoming and assisting Jo Anne
until she is familiar with the territory.
Until next time..stay cool, enjoy the summer, and hug your Vizslas!!

DOGS
AVAILABLE
This
morning a picked up a stray vizsla from the Shelbyville Animal
Shelter. Her name is Copper, she is approximately 3 yrs old
and her past is virtually unknown. Copper is shorter then
the standard and her tail is cropped too short. Her snout
is gray and her dew claws haven't been removed. She has been
spayed and is current on shots.
I will be receiving
her medical records that her previous owner had sometime next
week. She was first found tied up in a trailer park, no one
would claim her nor would they give her to the shelter. She
somehow escaped and was found 12 miles away. They were able
to catch her and bring her in. She was then adopted out to
a family that had a boxer however; they ended up going to
through a divorce and had to give one dog away, which was
Copper. |
 |
What I know
about Copper: she seems to have a good temperment, once she gets
to know you she enjoys affection, she is good with other dogs however
doesn't really understand how to play, I have been told that she
is house trained, she does not have much training and comes sometimes
when called but not always.
Please let me know if
you could assist with the rescue. Also if anyone could assit in
fostering Copper it would be most appreciated.

My
old friend, this song's for you
Cause a few simple verses
Was the least that I could do
To tell the world that you were here
Cause the love and the laughter
Will live long after
All of the sadness and the tears
We'll meet again, my old friend
Goodbye,
My
old friend,
Goodbye.

| Thanks
to all who worked so very hard on events since the last newsletter:
Paul Grice and Greg King
are Co-chairs and Jan Wallace for running the field trial so efficiently!
Theresa Miller and crew
for the work for the Fun day where four members appeared. Needles
to say we need to re-think the dates and the reality of holding
a Fun Day when it is so sparsely attended.
Matt Rogers, Mike Lifer
for stepping up to the line and chair/secty for the Hunt Test. They
had help from experienced members, but they took a chance and agreed
to step into the unknown. Thank You for being so brave.
Pam Williams and the
Specialty crew. Pam’s report is posted above, but it was well
run, very successful and people from as far away as the Carolinas
promised to be back next year. Brooke (Folley) Counts is taking
over the Specialty Chair job. Great that the next generation is
moving into chair jobs!
As you will note by the red in the list below we need some volunteers,
or we will not be holding the event. If you are new to the club
and want to help, but need mentoring, just let me know.. If you
are experienced in running the event and want a mentor, let me know
and we will entice the newbies :>)
Be
there
or let me know if you are willing to chair, secretary, help at any
of the following MVVC events.
August,
2006
August 12 MVVC/VCGC Versatility
August 12 MVVC Club Meeting
September, 2006

October, 2006
Oct 14 & 15 MVVC Field Trial - Chair: Theresa Miller. Sectretary:
Jan Wallace
Oct 17-27 VCA National Events – Dover, DE
I think I got all the
dates right-if the corresponding date calendar is right…
Board Report:
New Membership Chair
The MVVC Officers, Board
and members want to welcome Karen Derlatka as the new membership
chair. We also want to thank Marcia Folley for also offering to
take on the position.
A new Membership Application
is up with all of the correct (I hope) information in place.
Again thanks to both
Karen and Marcia for stepping forward when a plea cor volunteers
was issued.
There is a ballot waiting
for deadline that will:
- Elect new members
into membership-some have been waiting almost a year for a quorum
- Make a decision regarding
the Board meeting via a regular conference call.
As soon as the dealline
is past for the ballot to be returned, I will post the results.
Happy hunting, showing,
competing or just being with your Vizsla!
