Tom Siegmund (757) 546-5344 [email protected] Betta Breuhaus A Letter from our Rescue President Other Board Members: Carol Parron (919) 202-0189 [email protected] Officers of Rescue Spring Greetings from all Tarheel Weimaraner Rescue Board members and volunteers go out to fellow Tarheel Weimaraner Club members - Unfortunately along with Spring and especially Summer travels, we see a large increase of Shelter drop offs. The last couple of weeks brought 7 Weimaraners to TWR, most of them younger dogs, most of them very thin, covered with ticks and of course frightened. With shelter dogs, our Veterinary expenses are always high as most dogs are intact and require extensive Veterinary care. We also find that lately our adoption applications are not as plentiful as they used to be, we are lucky to get two or three applications per week. The good news is that our volunteer base is ever increasing as so many of our "Regulars" are eager and willing to help out on a moments notice. We especially would like to thank TWC member Helen Sanderford for rushing to her local shelter to check on"Star" a Weimaraner that truly only had a very short time left before being scheduled for euthanasia. Helen took photos and gave us a temperament report on this young dog. "Star" is now in foster care and is proving to be a very sweet dog, that will make someone very happy. During our Spring Tarheel Weimaraner Club meeting, TWR was able to sell $220.00 worth of Raffle tickets thank you fellow club members for your generosity!

Please go to our website www.tarheelweimrescue.org for information on how to purchase tickets. One of our very special items is Virginia Alexander's new edition of the wonderful book Weimaraner Way's. This book is signed by the author and also famous photographer William Wegman, it features a personalized cartoon drawing of a Weim sipping wine! I will take this time to send our thoughts and prayers for Virginia Alexander, who has suffered some serious health problems. "Ginny" has been a great supporter of Tarheel Weimaraner Rescue and Weimaraner Rescue in general - she truly has the best interest of all our Weimaraners at heart, not only the fortunate show, hunt and performance dogs, but also the unwanted, unloved, and abused Weims. We wish her a speedy recovery. Please enjoy the Spring time and hug your beloved gray friends.

We currently have 12 dogs on the website awaiting adoption with more coming in every day. Please keep them in your thoughts, they are all eagerly awaiting a “forever” home of their own. Meet our sweet boy Gage: It came to our attention that a disabled soldier unable to make ends meet was not only facing the prospect of losing his house but was additionally tasked with having to find a new home for his beloved gray friend, Gage. He contacted Rescue in hopes that we might be able to help. This soldier had contacted other rescue organizations and shelters in Virginia and North Carolina. He heard the same thing from each and every one of them - nobody was going to take in an 8 year old, diabetic Weimaraner. TWR feels strongly that the men and woman currently serving our country, often facing lengthy deployments and the sorrows of leaving their families and dogs behind, should receive special attention and our support. This is especially true for our returning Heroes who return home in some cases facing great physical, emotional and financial hardships. Therefore we agreed to take in this special older dog. We were aware that Gage was diabetic and that the disease was well under control with daily insulin injections. We also knew that Gage was overweight. What we didn't know until this sweet older dog arrived at his foster home was that he is completely blind. Gage suffers from cataracts in both eyes. We had thought there was a chance we could adopt out a sweet fluffy diabetic Weimaraner eventually. But being blind seemed to make that possibility a long shot. After consulting our Rescue Veterinarian it seemed that with a special surgery there was the possibility that Gage’s eyesight could be restored. A Specialty Vet will perform the surgery to both eyes. Once the cataract surgery is performed, Gage will get his sight back and the surgery will not need to be repeated. This comes at a price of course, probably in the neighborhood of $2,200.00 after a 10% rescue discount. Not what we had hoped for after the recent veterinary costs with Joey, Hunter, Bones and Jones. On March 8, Gage had successful cataract surgery. The day before, he was tentatively feeling his way around the house, slowly trying to walk up and down stairs, afraid of his new surroundings. By the very next day, he was running in the yard for the first time and playing! His first vet check went very well and his eyes are doing great. This is a permanent repair with no chance that the cataracts will return. We are excited for Gage and are looking forward to finding that special forever home!

Secretary’s Report submitted by Joan Mulford, Secretary -------------------------------- ----- ------------------------------------------ The Tarheel Weimaraner Newsletter March 2011 4 -------------------------------- ----- ------------------------------------------ The second dog and handler team to qualify at a Variable Surface Test in the State of North Carolina did so at our test in Pinehurst on Sunday, March 6, 2011. Lynn Berry and her Maltese Deacon, now CT Jordan’s Shooting Star, CD MX MXJ, took 80 minutes to pass their 638 yard track. Deacon and Lynn followed a 3 hour old track over grass, asphalt, cement, brick, and mulch, and found the articles of metal, plastic, cloth, and leather. If I have counted correctly, we now have an 8.3% pass rate in our VST tests, which is pretty close to the National VST average. Thanks so much to judges Ed Presnall and Mary Thompson, to tracklayers Carol Parron, Gretchen Stephenson, Susan Baldridge, and Joe Haggerty, and to committee member Louisa Arendt.

Nani’s Sophisticated Lady, NA NAJ MH SDX VX BROM (Ch. Nani's Indecent Exposure, NAJ JH CGC V BROM x Ch.Nani's Jagmar Sweet Dividends,VCD2 MX MXJ MH NSD NRD CGC FFXOG HIT VX4 BROM) rd shared 3 place for Top Producing Dams for 2010. “Sophie” was bred by Terrie Borman and Chris Grisell and is owned by Ross and Rosmarie Adams and Chris Grisell. Cissy Memorial Trophy Awarded to “Rogue” for Fourth Time The Cissy Memorial Championship trophy was established by Gene Dagenhart some years ago to honor and encourage amateur handlers in the field. This revolving trophy is awarded to the Weimaraner that accumulates the most points in Amateur Gun Dog and Amateur All-Age stakes and their amateur, owner, handler, club member. The number of points is based on the WCA “Top Ten List”. Tim and Elaine Carwile have just been notified that their “Rogue” (FC/AFC Aztec’s Midnight Shift) has been awarded this trophy for a fourth time! This comes after completing a very successful 2010 wherein he finished 3rd in the WCA’s All Age/Gun Dog “Top-Ten List”. Rogue was beautifully trained and campaigned early in his career by Scott Beyer, during which time he won the WCA’s National Futurity in Ardmore, OK and earned his Field Championship and many all-breed placements, all with consistently stylish bird work and yeoman application on the ground. He earned his Amateur Field Championship in April 2010 at the Garden State Weimaraner trial at Medford, NJ, with a 3-point major retrieving stake win. Rogue first won the Cissy trophy in 2006 and, Tim frankly admits that, until now, no one had checked the records for subsequent years. He’s honored to accept the award on Rogue’s behalf as the repeat winner for 2008, 2009 and 2010! This is the fifth time that Tim has handled a Cissy trophy winner. In 2003, the Carwile’s “Bayley” (Ch. Ardreem Thunder Under Foot, CDX SH SD NRD VX UKC CD ASCA CDX CDC-TDI) received the honor. Tim and Elaine report that Rogue is perhaps the most overtly affectionate Weimaraner they’ve ever met and they are truly humbled and grateful to have him as a member of their family. Though Rogue celebrated his ninth birthday in November, he doesn’t appear to have lost a step and Tim intends to continue to campaign him selectively in all-breed trials this spring and fall.
