Objective and Purpose: To promote cooperation and friendship among the breeders and owners of Brittanys and to encourage higher standards in breeding, training and showing of Brittanys in the field and in the show ring; to discourage the breed from becoming split into groups of “field dogs” and “show dogs” and to strive to keep it forever a “dual dog”.

4 In Memory of Fred A. Brooks, Jr. June 20, 1931 - March 21, 2015

Born in Sherman, Texas, Fred achieved a Master of Science Degree in Chemistry and began over a 50-year career in the oil industry with Humble Oil. He and his wife, Betty, settled in Houston where they built their lives and many friendships. Fred was well- respected in his field and served as the long-time Chairman of the American Petroleum Institute Committee on Oil Well Cementing. His career took him and Betty to various parts of the world. Later in life they went to their weekend farm where they enjoyed memorable gatherings with family and friends, fishing, hunting, gardening and bird watching. Fred and Betty were also extremely active in the Texas Coastal Brittany Club for well over 30 years. Both Fred and Betty served as officers and board members for many years, attended club functions and were generous with their monetary support. Fred loved working with his Brittanys and enjoyed hunting tests where he ran his Brittanys and judged occasionally. He enjoyed shooting skeet and spending time with his hunting friends at his deer lease in the hill country. Fred passed peacefully on March 21, 2015 surrounded by his family in Houston, TX. Betty, Fred’s wife of 58 years, passed before him after a lengthy illness. Goodbye, my friend. We will miss you. Texas Coastal Brittany Club

(and this holds true for teenagers, too). They don’t pout then – Why do dogs pout? It can be a genetic thing, an inherited there’s no reason to. When they get their way, they’re happy. trait from a sire or dam, but more likely it’s learned behavior. They don’t display sulky, sullen behavior when they’re getting to Dogs repeat what works, and if pouting and sulking they didn’t do whatever they want with no restrictions or rules. Pouting is a want to do, they will use that behavior over and over because reaction to control. it works. A pouting dog is responding to your demands under We usually see pouting and sullen behavior at seminars protest. It can be a form of dominance behavior in a dog with because often the dog is being asked to step out of its comfort a dominant personality. It knows it will probably have to do zone. It has never been in that position before, having managed what you asked, but it’s sending a clear message that it isn’t to manipulate the owner into giving in. It usually manifests on pleased with the situation. Give the Boss the sad eyes and act the chain gang first, with a dog that has never had to stay put for

6 very long. First they get frustrated and may bark, dig, chew, jump around, etc. Then they start to give in and resign themselves to the fact that they can’t go anywhere, but they do it with a pouting attitude. That changes when the owner approaches, because the dog is certain the owner will rescue it from being tied. Some of the dogs learn very quickly to be calm and still, which in turn gets them off the chain. Others may turn their backs and sulk, or any of the other behaviors that signify a pout. The next phase of training where the pout shows up is on the lead. A lot of dogs are used to being held in place by the leash via tension, and they’ve been allowed to pull because the owner didn’t know how not to have them pull. When the Command Lead goes on and the dog is put in the position of having to actually pay attention and watch the handler and walk with a loop of slack in the lead, they will pout. Some will even fight it, since they’re used to pulling on the lead to go where they want to go while dragging the person along. They’ll stop and refuse to move, jump on you, try to push into you… and when all of that fails, they sulk and pout. From there, we go to teaching a dog to stand still, or “whoa,” altogether until the sulky behavior is gone. Adding birds changes and the pout shows up there as well. Usually the dog tries to the dog’s focus from you to the birds, and the dog is likely to negotiate: Okay, I stood still for a bit, now it’s my turn to make make errors that need to be corrected – and corrections are a decision and I want to move. We can’t allow the dog to make likely to cause a pouting episode, as well as forming a negative those decisions on their own, or they’ll take advantage and push association with birds. Don’t be in a rush, and take one step at a harder to have their way. time. Come back to birds when you have a happy, compliant dog How do we deal with sullen, pouting dogs? We completely with a good attitude. ignore those behaviors and go on with whatever we’re working Pouting doesn’t develop any good traits, in dogs or in people. on. If we acknowledge them at all, the dog “wins.” Even negative It has no positive function at all. We’re sure you’ve been around attention is still attention, and any sort of acknowledgement is people that sulk when they can’t have things their way, whether feeding the dog’s behavior. Instead, we go on with whatever it’s a friend, relative, or coworker. They’re not fun to be around, we’re doing as if the sulking isn’t happening. Most dogs catch are they? Think about how far in life whiny, sulky people get. on pretty quickly, and we can watch their expression and attitude There aren’t too many of them at the top, mostly because they change in a matter of minutes from sulky and sullen to resigned, spend more time arguing and complaining than they do working. and then to interested and happy. Usually, that’s a canine response Somewhere along the way, they failed to learn to adapt and to good leadership. change.

The tricky part is working the owner back into the equation, since the dog has already established how it behaves for that individual. The owner has to change his own behavior before he can successfully change the dog’s actions, since the two already have a history together. When working with a pouting, sullen dog, don’t try to fix the pout around birds. Skip the bird work

When ABC Purina Pro Club members submit their weight circles, the Purina Parent Club Partnership Program donates money to the Canine Health Foundation’s Donor Advised Fund (DAF). The Health and Genetics Committee then selects research grants that they feel would be most beneficial to issues affecting our breed even if the research is not Brittany specific. ABC’s DAF has donated about $3000 each year thanks to our diligent Pro Club members and Purina. Following are summaries of the research grants: 2013: Mapping of Genetic Risk Factors for Canine Hip Dysplasia(#1828) 2014: Epilepsy Initiative

A grant sponsor’s CHF Health Liaison may request the confidential scientific report submitted by the investigator by contacting the CHF office. The below Report to Grant Sponsors from Investigator can be used in communications with your club members.) Original Project Description: Canine hip dysplasia (HD) is common a developmental disorder of the hip joint affecting many breeds and severely suppressing the quality of life. As the disease has several genetic risk elements and is additionally influenced by environmental factors like feed and exercise, it is of paramount importance that the genetic association studies are conducted using adequatelysized cohorts of genotyped diseased and healthy animals. This proposal involves two research groups (Finland and France) engaged in the genetics of HD in German Shepherd, Golden retriever and Labrador retriever breeds. HD is a polygenic disease and requires large enough sample sizes (>300-400 dogs) so that contributing genetic loci can reliably discovered. This proposal aims to genotype 288 dogs in German Shepherds increasing the total number of studied dogs in this breed over 400. By doing this, we expect to increase the power of the association studies so that all major genetic risk factors can be uncovered with a high statistical significance. The loci identified in German Shepherds will be followed up in the other breeds. The identification of genetic risk elements allows developing genetic tests that can be used in breeding programs to control the disease incidence as well as further studies regarding the possible role diet and exercise in the HD development.

Epilepsy Initiative Update The seizure-related syndromes collectively known as epilepsy represent one of the most common neurological disorders in dogs, and as such are a significant concern to the AKC Canine Health Foundation and our donors. In response to donor concern, CHF is launching a major, two phase research effort to better classify disease, understand the underlying mechanisms that predispose dogs to epilepsy, and finally, to introduce new drugs into the canine epilepsy treatment pipeline. To ensure success, the Epilepsy Research Initiative requires the formation of collaborative pre-clinical/clinical research groups who will work together to define the molecular basis of epilepsy and 11 develop disease modification or prevention strategies. It is expected that formation of collaborative pre-clinical/clinical research teams will accelerate the discovery phase and thus the translation of research from laboratory bench to patient. Successful applications were required to demonstrate both a strong understanding of the clinical syndromes themselves and a rigorous preclinical research base.

Two Epilepsy Grants Approved: 2131: Neurostimulation: A Groundbreaking New Treatment for Canine Epilepsy Principal Investigator: Dr. Sam Nicholas Long, PhD Institution: The University of Melbourne Total Grant Amount: Phase I $116,000 Epilepsy is a debilitating condition that affects a large number of dogs, resulting in premature death and distress for their owners. For many dogs the underlying cause is unknown. In people, advances in some types of imaging have identified subtle abnormalities, including abnormal development and shrinkage of particular regions in the brain of some people with epilepsy that can be surgically removed to improve the control of seizures. This project will apply the same advanced techniques to the brains of dogs with epilepsy to determine whether those same abnormalities exist in dogs. In those dogs in which no abnormalities can be found, this project will investigate a new form of treatment, known as neurostimulation which has been shown to reduce the frequency of seizures dramatically in human clinical trials. This involves surgically implanting a new, highly sophisticated device called the Brain Radio that can provide controlled electrical stimulation to parts of the brain while simultaneously recording the brain’s activity. This device is one of the very first that could potentially provide successful therapy only when needed to treat imminent seizures and if it proves successful in dogs it will enter clinical trials in people with epilepsy. 2133: Canine Epilepsy: Genetic Variants, Biomarkers, and New Therapies Principal Investigator: Dr. Ned E. Patterson, DVM PhD Institution: University of Minnesota Total Grant Amount: Phase I $104,781.00 Epilepsy is a significant seizure disorder affecting all dog breeds. It is the most common chronic nervous system disorder in dogs, with a prevalence of 0.5% - 5.7%, resulting in approximately 2 million affected dogs in the USA. We have assembled a trans-disciplinary team to attempt to improve the fate of dogs that have epilepsy with a special emphasis on dogs with drug-resistant epilepsy. Dog with drug- resistant epilepsy have frequent seizures even when on 2 or more anti-epileptic drugs. The team includes Veterinarians, Canine Geneticists, Pharmacologists, Human Neurologists, Basic Scientists and Biomedical Engineers from the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine, College of Pharmacy, Institute for Engineering in Medicine, and Departments of Neurology and Surgery, and Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. Under the guidance of Dr. Ned Patterson, the collaborative group proposes to evaluate traditional DNA genetic markers, blood biomarkers called microRNAs (miRNAs), and potential new drugs for the emergency treatment of seizures in dogs. In phase 1 of Dr. Patterson’s study he and his team will 1. Identify genetic markers associated with epilepsy in Australian shepherds and Vizslas, and identify markers associated with epileptic dogs that are unresponsive to anti-epileptic drug therapy in order to develop genetic screening tests in phase 2; 2. Document microRNA levels in the blood of dogs with epilepsy in order to develop potential blood markers that vary between epileptic and nonepileptic dogs, and dogs with drug-resistant epilepsy; and 3. Perform initial testing of two new potential drugs for the emergency treatment of canine epilepsy.

48 49 Stress-Free Travel for Sporting Dogs

Traveling on the road to a multiday event is not restful for dogs, no matter how well-adapted they may be to life on the truck. Here are travel trips to help your dog stay injury-free, healthy and ready to perform at a high level of athleticism.

1. Practice Traveling. The more accustomed a dog is to traveling, the better. Early in the training season, familiarize young dogs with the travel routine. Puppies should get used to going on short rides in your travel vehicle and to being around other dogs and new places. Practice feeding them in the box on the truck or on a tie-out chain. Identify dogs that don’t travel well so you can well so you can devise strategies to help them cope. A positive approach helps minimize stress, especially for dogs that don’t eat, drink or sleep well on the road.

2. Conduct a Tailgate Exam. A tailgate exam involves putting a dog on the tailgate of your truck to examine him or her from head to toe after a day afield. This helps to identify potential injuries before they become problems. Start at the head and neck, turning the dog’s head from side to side to look for muscle or disk problems. Check for back pain by running your hands along the dog’s spine. Lift the front legs and flex them back and rotate them out to check range of motion in the shoulders. Look for cuts, bumps and scars, particularly on the elbows and hocks. Check the eyes and nose for seeds, grass or other field debris. Closely examine the feet, looking at the paws, pads, nail bed, and webbing for tears, cuts or signs of pain and swelling.

3. Feed one time a day. Performance dogs that are healthy, and not a breed at risk for bloat, should be fed once a day a minimum of 10 to 12 hours before exercise. Eating creates an insulin spike that inhibits a dog’s ability to use fat, the most important energy fuel. Insulin also increases the uptake of glucose, or sugar, from the blood into the muscles, which could cause fatigue from low blood sugar. Feeding shortly before exercise increases blood flow to the gut and thus decreases the amount of blood available to the working muscles. At multiple-day events, dogs should be fed as soon as possible after exercise, allowing adequate time for cooling down, so they have the maximum time to digest the meal before the next day.

4. Keep Dogs Hydrated. Healthy hydration is essential for hardworking dogs. Dehydration can occur rapidly. Dogs that exercise 30 to 60 minutes in temperatures that are 70 to 80 degrees can experience mild to moderate dehydration, depending on the activity and the intensity. To help maintain hydration, dogs should be given small amounts of water every 15 to 20 minutes during events lasting longer than 60 minutes. Water helps to cool the special cooling mechanism in the back of a dog’s throat, which counters the current exchange and helps cool blood going to the brain. Saliva and foam impair the cooling system. At the end of an event, make sure a dog has access to water, but be sure to wait until panting slows down before allowing a dog to drink a large volume of water

5. Choose a Quiet Place for Rest. It’s important to choose a quiet place free of distractions to kennel a dog for the night. If your dogs sleep in dog boxes in your truck, you should park in an area away from other vehicles that is free from distractions. Make sure your dogs have soft, dry bedding so they can rest comfortably. www.theamericanbrittanyclub.org
