Liebe Freunde! So wie Sie, geschätzte Leser, freue auch ich mich über die neue Ausgabe von pro spaniel und danke sämtlichen Beteiligten, allen voran unserer Redaktionsleiterin und Öffentlichkeitsreferentin Maria-Luise Doppelreiter, sehr herzlich für die umfangreiche und erfolgreiche Arbeit, die bis zum Erscheinen einer solchen Publikation geleistet werden muss. Wie immer gibt Ihnen dieses Magazin in informativer und unterhaltsamer Weise Auskunft über das Geschehen in unserem traditionsreichen Klub. Gemeinsam mit dem Jahrbuch, der Klubwebsite und den Websites der Landesgruppen, durch Beiträge in der ÖKV-Zeitschrift „Unsere Hunde―, in Jagdzeitschriften und Veranstaltungskatalogen, aber auch auf Vorträgen, Präsentationen, Diskussionen und Gesprächen auf diversen Klubveranstaltungen, bieten wir unseren Mitgliedern, aber auch der interessierten allgemeinen Öffentlichkeit, regelmäßig ein breites Maß an wichtigen und wertvollen Informationen. Dem Trend der Zeit entsprechend wird dabei das Internet und seine zahlreichen Kommunikations-möglichkeiten immer wichtiger. Auch wir können und wollen uns dem nicht verschließen. Deshalb haben wir die Kommunikationsaktivitäten des ÖJSpK zum Beispiel mit Facebook auch auf die Welt der „Social Media― ausgeweitet. Das Jahr 2011 ist bisher so gelaufen, wie es in einem Klub mit so wichtigen Aufgaben wie sie einem traditionsreichen Rassehundeverein obliegen, eigentlich seit jeher sein sollte. Der Vorstand wurde anlässlich der Ordentlichen Generalversammlung im Februar mit eindrucksvoller Mehrheit für drei weitere Jahre gewählt. Die Referate bemühen sich, ihren satzungsgemäßen Aufgaben bestmöglich nachzukommen, und die Landesgruppen sorgen in geselligen und informativen Veranstaltungen verschiedenster Art für den Kontakt mit den Mitgliedern vor Ort. Allen, die daran mitwirken, möchte ich für ihr Engagement herzlich danken. Erlauben Sie mir an dieser Stelle jedoch auch einige kritische Worte. Ein Klub wie der ÖJSpK findet seine Rechtfertigung zwar in den Aufgaben, die er gemäß Satzung und sonstigen Bestimmungen bestmöglich erfüllt, kann all dem jedoch personell, organisatorisch und finanziell nur mit Hilfe seiner Funktionäre und Mitglieder nachkommen. Insbesonders von so manchen Mitgliedern würden ich, sowie meine KollegInnen im Vorstand mitunter mehr Unterstützung erwarten. Es reicht nicht wirklich, nur dann an seinen Klub zu denken, wen man von ihm etwas braucht oder wenn man etwas kritisieren möchte. Auch sollte man zumindest rechtzeitig seinen jährlichen Mitgliedsbeitrag bezahlen. Diejenigen Mitglieder, welche dies zum Zeitpunkt, zu dem ich diese Zeilen verfasse, also immerhin im dritten Quartal des Jahres, leider für heuer noch immer nicht getan haben, erfüllen so gesehen nicht einmal ihre durch den Beitritt entstandene minimale Pflicht. Bei aller angesichts von hunderten Mitgliedern üblichen Fluktuation wären uns natürlich auch mehr neue Mitglieder sehr willkommen. Ich bitte daher insbesonders all diejenigen, welche die Möglichkeit haben, neue Spanielbesitzer zum Beispiel auf die Gelegenheit einer kostenlosen Schnuppermitgliedschaft aufmerksam zu machen, dies auch zu tun, und vor allem auch auf die Vorteile hinzuweisen, die damit verbunden sind. Nun aber wieder zurück zu erfreulicheren Themen. Im zweiten Halbjahr 2011 kommen wieder interessante und große Austellungen, anspruchsvolle zivile und jagdliche Hundeprüfungen, hoffentlich allseits gesunde Würfe, gesellige und informative Veranstaltungen, neue Mitglieder, die vielleicht bald auch zu neuen Freuden werden, und vieles mehr auf uns zu. In diesem Sinn wünsche ich Ihnen/Euch/uns allen: Freuen wir uns gemeinsam auf all das Wertvolle, Nützliche und Schöne, was unser ÖJSpK auch im hundertfünften Jahr seines Bestehens zu bieten hat. Genießen wir vor allem das Leben mit unseren vielfältigen und vielseitigen Hunden, indem wir dieses auch für unsere vierläufigen Freunde so lebenswert und artgerecht wie möglich gestalten. Mit herzlichen Grüßen, Fotos Titelseite: English Springer Spaniels im Meer (Foto Illenschitz) Spanielkurs 2011 Christmas Joy made in Austria, B: Moser Mag. H. Nikoll (Foto Mittermair) Präsident des ÖJSpK S e i t e 2 EDITORIAL Liebe Mitglieder und liebe Spanielfreunde! Manchmal fällt es schwer, sich auf notwendige Aufgaben zu konzentrieren. Man hat viel zu tun, beruflich und privat. Man verschiebt eine Aufgabe immer wieder, weil man wenig Lust dazu hat. Man überlegt, warum man sich dieses oder jenes vorgenommen hat, man denkt darüber nach, ob nach mehr als 25 Jahren Arbeit für einen Klub, dessen Mitglieder (zumindest einige wenige) lieber kritisieren und behindern als loben und helfen nicht ein wenig die Luft draußen ist. Aber es gibt auch Momente, in denen man weiß, wozu und für wen man viele Stunden ver(sch)wendet, um ehrenamtlich einer Idee zu dienen. Ich bin sicher, dass all diejenigen, die diese Zeilen lesen, wissen, zu welcher „Fraktion“ sie gehören. Einigen von Ihnen wird vielleicht aufgefallen sein, dass „pro spaniel― dieses Mal etwas später erscheint. Dies hat seinen Grund. Da es immer schwieriger wurde, die Sommerausgabe mit Inhalt zu füllen, hat der Vorstand des ÖJSpK beschlossen, die Publikationen unseres Klubs ein wenig zu reduzieren - es gibt in Zukunft das Jahrbuch im Frühjahr und eine Ausgabe von „pro spaniel― im Herbst. Ich glaube, dass dies eine sehr gute Lösung ist (nicht nur, weil sie mir viel Arbeit erspart) - und hoffe, dass sich auch unsere Mitglieder dieser Meinung anschließen können. All jene, die in der virtuellen Welt des Internets unterwegs sind, können die aktuellen Mitteilungen unseres Klubs stets auf unserer Homepage www.jagdspaniel.at finden. Da ich von vornherein geplant hatte, die Homepage nur interimistisch zu betreuen, bis ein geeigneter Webmaster gefunden wird, bin ich sehr froh, dass Herr Bauer sich bereit erklärt hat, mich durch Übernahme dieser Aufgabe zu entlasten.

Es ist gerade in der heutigen Zeit, in der die Öffentlichkeit – oft schlecht oder einseitig informiert – der Jagd und insbesonders dem Einsatz von Tieren als Jagdhelfer mitunter sehr kritisch gegenübersteht, für uns eine nicht immer leichte Aufgabe, das Positive in den Vordergrund zu stellen und den wertvollen Beitrag der Jagd und damit insbesonders auch des Jagdhundewesens sichtbar zu machen. Unsere Jagdliche Prüfungsordnung, die völlig im Einklang mit dem neuen Tierschutzgesetz und allen anderen Bestimmungen steht, das Knowhow und die Erfahrung von Funktionären und Leistungs- richtern, sowie ein inzwischen sehr stabiles Netzwerk innerhalb der zuständigen Organisationen und Revierleitungen erleichtern uns vieles bei der Bewältigung unserer Aufgaben. Und dass unsere Spaniels auch dann, wenn sie in artgerechter Weise jagdlich zum Einsatz kommen, durch

  • Sporting Group Study Guide Naturally Active and Alert, Sporting Dogs Make Likeable, Well-Rounded Companions
    Sporting Group Study Guide Naturally active and alert, Sporting dogs make likeable, well-rounded companions. Remarkable for their instincts in water and woods, many of these breeds actively continue to participate in hunting and other field activities. Potential owners of Sporting dogs need to realize that most require regular, invigorating exercise. The breeds of the AKC Sporting Group were all developed to assist hunters of feathered game. These “sporting dogs” (also referred to as gundogs or bird dogs) are subdivided by function—that is, how they hunt. They are spaniels, pointers, setters, retrievers, and the European utility breeds. Of these, spaniels are generally considered the oldest. Early authorities divided the spaniels not by breed but by type: either water spaniels or land spaniels. The land spaniels came to be subdivided by size. The larger types were the “springing spaniel” and the “field spaniel,” and the smaller, which specialized on flushing woodcock, was known as a “cocking spaniel.” ~~How many breeds are in this group? 31~~ 1. American Water Spaniel a. Country of origin: USA (lake country of the upper Midwest) b. Original purpose: retrieve from skiff or canoes and work ground c. Other Names: N/A d. Very Brief History: European immigrants who settled near the great lakes depended on the region’s plentiful waterfowl for sustenance. The Irish Water Spaniel, the Curly-Coated Retriever, and the now extinct English Water Spaniel have been mentioned in histories as possible component breeds. e. Coat color/type: solid liver, brown or dark chocolate. A little white on toes and chest is permissible.

  • A BRIEF HISTORY of the GOLDEN RETRIEVER © Golden Retriever Club of America
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE GOLDEN RETRIEVER © Golden Retriever Club of America In the 1800s in Scotland and England, hunting was both sport and a practical way of obtaining food. Retrievers became popular when the breech­loading shotgun demanded an efficient retrieving dog for both waterfowl and upland game. All retriever breeds can trace back to the water­loving St Johns dog of Newfoundland, ancestor of the wavy­coated retriever which contributed to both the Flat­Coat and the Golden. The most complete records of the origin of the Golden Retriever are included in the record book kept from about 1840 until 1890 by Dudley Marjoribanks, first Lord Tweedmouth, at his Guisachan estate in the Scottish Highlands. These records were made public in 1952 by Lord Tweedmouth's great­nephew, the sixth Lord Ilchester. Further information and additional pedigree research was published by Elma Stonex. In 1865 Dudley Marjoribanks bought "Nous", the single yellow pup in a litter of black wavy­coated retrievers. Photos of Nous show a handsome, sturdy dog with a wavy coat, quite recognizably a Golden. Nous was bred with Belle, a Tweed Water Spaniel, resulting in four yellow pups that became the foundation of the breed. Through several generations of clever breeding, Marjoribanks created a consistent line of exceptional working retrievers. To the main line from Nous and Belle, he added another Tweed Water Spaniel, a couple of black wavy­coated retrievers, and a red setter, retaining primarily the yellow pups. Working ability and retrieving aptitude were paramount, requiring a strong, biddable dog that could withstand cold and cope with the demanding terrain of the Highlands.

  • The Golden Retriever Unique Origin
    THE GOLDEN RETRIEVER UNIQUE ORIGIN: The Golden Retriever was developed in Scotland at the highland estate of Lord Tweedmouth. The Flat-Coated Retriever, the Tweed Water Spaniel, and the Irish Setter were a few of the original descendents of the Golden Retriever. Lord Tweedmouth was trying to produce a dog that would be an excellent scent hunter, a retriever, and also be loyal and even-tempered in the house; and he accomplished just that. Lord Tweedmouth was especially partial to yellow dogs and gave most of the other colored dogs away, hence why they come only in shades of gold. They were officially recognized as their own distinct breed in 1920. PERSONALITY: A Golden Retriever is an excellent family pet. They get along well with everyone, including children and other pets. They are happy-go-lucky, gentle, and very friendly. They are intelligent, trainable, and obedient, and they want to please their owner. Golden Retrievers were bred to work, so they love to play games and have fun outdoors. They’re athletic and fast on their feet. It’s no surprise they are one of the most popular dogs in the world as they are beautiful, sweet, and loyal. APPEARANCE: Goldens usually weigh between 50 to 80 pounds and stand approximately 21 to 24 inches high. They are a strong, medium to large sized dog with a well-proportioned body. They are especially known for their long and silky coat, which comes in colors of light golden, golden, and dark golden. INTERESTING FACTS: Golden Retrievers are the 19th most popular dog registered with America's Pet Registry Inc.

  • 1960 to 1969
    SECTION 2: BREED DEVELOPMENT 2.8 – 1960 to 1969 Around the World No doubt the baby boomers will remember the sixties for the musical revolution which evolved over the period. For those of us who lived through them, it was a wonderful time in our lives. So many legends, the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Big O(Roy Orbison), Cliff Richard, Peter Paul and Mary. In Australia we had Normie Rowe and The Seekers. And of course there was the Twist and the Go-Go dancing. Memorable songs of the period included The Twist, Run Around Sue, Moon River, Crying, The Lion Sleeps Tonight, I Want to Hold Your Hand, Oh Pretty Woman, Respect, Dock of the Bay, Stand by Your Man, Crazy, Strangers in the Night, The Carnival is Over. Television really took off in a gigantic way. After school children tuned into shows such as Gilligan’s Island, Andy Griffiths Show, Bewitched, The Addams Family, The Flintstones, Batman, I Dream of Jeannie, Lost in Space, The Man from Uncle, The Dick Van Dyke Show, and Coronation Street. We met up with friends at the local cinema, rolled jaffas down the aisles while watching movies such as Pollyanna, Swiss Family Robinson and The Parent Trap. Other family movies which come to mind are The Sound of Music with Julie Andrews and My Fair Lady with Audrey Hepburn. The drive-in movie (with our parents) was a real treat.At school the children would be given milk every morning before recess and in several parts of the world they were still dipping pens in ink wells.

  • Early Ancestors of Golden Retrievers by Mrs
    Early Ancestors Of Golden Retrievers By Mrs. Mark D. Elliott Several years ago my attention was called to an article by Mrs. Elma Stonex in the British "Dog World" Magazine revealing facts of origin about the Golden Retriever which refuted the colorful and romantic story of the Russian circus dogs as the forebears of the breed. That anyone should doubt this story was like a shocking intrusion into the well ordered pattern of one's personal history. In striking contrast to the background so long attributed to Goldens, the article acknowledged their descent from black Wavy Coated Retrievers and Tweed Water Spaniels--the latter breed long lost in obscurity and about which little information had been found. My curiosity aroused, I entered the search, and by chance came across a description in an old and rare copy of Dalziel's British Dogs in---of all surprising places---the chapter on Irish Water Spaniels. More reluctant than ever to concede any connection between the Tweed dogs and our lovely Goldens, I sent this reference to the author of the articles. A most interesting and informative correspondence followed, and through her patience and kindness I soon became a convert to the new findings. Mrs. Stonex is considered one of the foremost authorities on Golden Retrievers today, and she has shared with us facts, photographs and pedigrees which relate the true beginnings of the breed. Her research had been stimulated by information published in the British "Country Life" Magazine early in 1952 and 1953 which had been contributed by the Earl of Ilchester who had recognized the need for making public what he knew about the yellow retrievers before it became too late.

  • Golden Retriever
    The breed of the month is… Golden Retriever Highlights Golden Retrievers shed profusely, especially in the spring and fall. Daily brushing will get some of the loose hair out of the coat, keeping it from settling on your clothing and all over your house. But if you live with a Golden, you'll have to get used to dog hair. Golden Retrievers are family dogs; they need to live indoors with their human "pack," and shouldn't spend hours alone in the backyard. Golden Retrievers are active dogs who need 40-60 minutes of hard exercise daily. They thrive on obedience training, agility classes, and other canine activities, which are a great way to give your dog the physical and mental exercise they require. Although they're gentle and trustworthy with kids, Golden Retrievers are boisterous, large dogs that can accidentally knock over a small child. Goldens love to eat, and will quickly become overweight if overfed. Limit treats, measure out your dog's daily kibble, and feed him in regular meals rather than leaving food out all the time. Because the Golden Retriever is so popular, there are many people breeding Goldens who care more about making money out of the demand for puppies than in breeding happy, healthy dogs. To get a healthy dog, never buy a puppy from an irresponsible breeder, puppy mill, or pet store. Look for a reputable breeder who tests her breeding dogs to make sure they're free of genetic diseases that they might pass onto the puppies, and that they have sound temperaments.
