Dear Readers,
Please make note…as of 1/1/2011 my email address will
change to [email protected] — 40 years ago when I was first
interested in Whippets, I met Doris Ringer who had been
showing and racing and occasionally breeding Whippets for a
number of years in this area. Over the years we spent untold
hours talking dogs and she proved to be a very good friend
and full of enthusiasm and joie de vivre. Doris is still with us,
in her 80’s now, and currently recovering from a medical
emergency. If you’d like to send her a card her address is
11515 – 17th NE, Seattle, WA 98125. — Purina recently an
interview with Kerrie Kuper and her husband Neil Barthelette
about their KARASAR Whippets and family a couple of months
ago and the article is now online and can be found at http://
tinyurl.com/25ehwnu — Condolences to Linda Larson for the
loss of Ch. Plumcreek Come Fly With Me, and to Cheri Boutelle
for the loss of Ch. Queenie’s Hearts of Fire; both great dogs
and both incomparable companions. — — Greetings of the
season, may all of you and your dogs be Happy, Healthy and
Successful at all you do throughout the New Year!!!

The Whippe t News  December 2010
President’s Message
PLEASE take the time to read this. There really is some useful
information in this column sometimes.
The time frame for commenting on the proposed By-Laws
changes has passed so I (acting as liaison for the Board) am
going to start the formal process of working with AKC to get the
changes approved so that they can go out to the membership
for a formal vote. A couple of questions concerning the different
types of memberships that would be offered did arise that I
would like to address for clarification. On the topic of foreign
memberships, foreign members who are already members of
the AWC would be grandfathered in and therefore always be
regular members as long as they maintain their current membership. It would only be those whose citizenship is not that of
the US that would apply for and be non-voting foreign members
after the changes to the By-Laws are passed. US citizens are US
citizens regardless of where they may be living and therefore
would apply for and be considered regular members. Honorary
memberships and lifetime memberships can be bestowed by the
Board or by a majority vote of the membership at an annual
meeting or by the majority vote of a nomination brought to the
membership in a special vote.
The By-Laws changes include the term limits clause that the
membership voted on a couple of months ago. As I have mentioned previously, implementation of term limits required a ByLaws change (on which we were fortunately already in the middle of working); they couldn’t be established by simply changing
Club policy to enact them. Therefore, until the By-Laws changes
are approved (hopefully by mid-2011), current Board members
who have served three or more than consecutive terms are still
eligible to run for another term in office if they so desire.
From the pictures I’ve seen and what I’ve heard the Meet the
Breeds booth at the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship
Show was a resounding success and captured fourth place in
the hound group. This was the first time the booth had won a
placement in this competition. Congratulations to Rachel Amado
and everyone else in her hard working crew for a job well done.
Look for Rachel’s report elsewhere in this issue. Regarding this
topic, the AKC/Eukanuba show moves to Florida next year so
the Board will be looking for someone in that area of the country to take the reins and continue the work that has been so
aptly handled in California for many years.
The other tremendous news that came from this show involved several Whippet people. Debbie Butt of Sporting Field’s
fame was named AKC’s Breeder of the Year. She had already
won Breeder of the Year for the Hound Group prior to having
this ultimate honor bestowed upon her. Whippet and IG breeder
Carol Harris of Bo-Bett fame won the Toy Group Breeder of the
Year. Congratulations to both of these ladies. The other occurrence of note was that Ch. Starline’s Chanel won the breed and
the Hound Group there. Congratulations to her owners Carey,
Lori and Nicole Lawrence and her handler Lori Wilson on this
prestigious win.
Last but certainly not least, before I close I would like to welcome new members Suzi Bender, Debra Borton, Christine
Heath, Jill Hopfenbeck, Karen Rogers, Annique Smith, Paula
Snell, and Patricia Spinazzola to the club.
Wishing everyone Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
Russell

National in Lexington, KY. The Parade will be held on Friday evening at 7:00 PM All rescue Whippets, regardless of where they
were rescued from, are invited to participate.
All rescue Whippets will be winners in this event! Master of Ceremonies for the event will be Dr. Barbara Henderson, VMD, President
of WRAP. Donations for the Whippets and registrations for the Parade are now being accepted. If you have items to donate for the
rescue Whippets or wish to register your Whippet for the Parade,
please contact Ruth Beall, [email protected]. We will need your
name, your Whippet's name, and a short bio that can be read while
you and your rescue Whippet are in the ring.
This year, WRAP will be joining AWC and the Whippet Health Foundation with a joint fund-raising table, and the proceeds will be split
three ways. Mary Alderman, [email protected], is
accepting items for the joint activity.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me, either by e-mail, [email protected], or phone (260-452-5275).

HUGE EUKANUBA HONOR!!
The seven finalists for the “Breeder of the
Year” award at AKC/Eukanuba show in Long
Beach this month were introduced in the
ring right before BIS. Present were Whippet
breeders Debbie Butt, Sporting Fields, and
Carol Harris, Bo-Bett, who was there representing Toys through her Bo-Bett Italian
Greyhounds. Debbie was announced as the
winner. Debbie is also nominated as
“Outstanding Breeder” at the Dogs in Review ShowDogs of the Year awards dinner
in NY before Westminster.
DIONNE (DEBBIE) BUTT BIO
Debbie Butt was literally born into dogs.
Her parents used the Sporting Fields prefix
when registering Spaniels as early as 1945,
long before Debbie was born. Whippets
were added in the late 1960s; the purchase
of the Canadian-born Ch. Winterfold’s Bold
Bid in 1970 and the English import Ch.
Charmoll Clansman three years later put
Sporting Fields at the top of the Whippet
charts. Clansman’s son and namesake, Ch.
Sporting Fields Clansman (“Buoy”), won the
Hound Group at Westminster in 1981. His
58 AKC all-breed Best in Show wins remains
an all-time record for the breed
The Sporting Fields dogs were initially
shown by Robert Forsyth, but Debbie
started handling early and took her first BIS
win with Bold Bid in 1976, when the dog
was nine and Debbie herself was barely a
teenager. She also handled Buoy to his last
wins, including BIS at the American Whippet
Club specialty in California in 1984.
In the 1990s Debbie showed Buoy’s great
-grandson Ch. Sporting Fields Kinsman to
51 AKC all-breed Best in Shows and the
AWC National in 1992. Among the the 21st
century winners, Kinsman’s grandson Ch.
Sportingfields Jazz Fest [NB spelling!] became one of the world’s most influential
stud dogs, and Jazz Fest’s grandson Ch.
Sporting Fields Rock On has won more
Bests at specialty shows than any other
Whippet, including the AWC National in
2005.
Throughout the years Sporting Fields has
maintained a broad breeding program and
produced several hundred champions, many
co-bred with other fanciers. A record five
different Sporting Fields dogs have won the
AWC National Specialty. Most recently, Rock
On’s great-granddaughter Ch. Sporting
Fields Bahama Sands won the 2010 AWC
National, handled by Debbie’s daughter
Amanda Giles.
Sporting Fields has also achieved great
success with several other breeds, including
Greyhounds, Scottish Deerhounds, Smooth
Fox Terriers and — most recently — Border
Collies.

DEBBIE BUTT NAMED 2010 AKC BREEDER OF THE YEAR
Award Presented at AKC/Eukanuba National Championship in New York, NY. Debbie
Butt of Toms Brook, Virginia was honored with the 2010 AKC Breeder of the Year
Award for her Sporting Fields Whippets at the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship
on Sunday, December 5, 2010. The annual award honors those breeders who have
dedicated their lives to improving the health, ttemperament and quality of purebred
dogs.
"Debbie has bred all-purpose Whippets for more than 30 years and her name has
become synonymous with great hounds that are beautiful, capable and healthy," said
AKC Chairman of the Board Ron Menaker. "With this award, we recognize the years of
dedication and work that she has invested in her breed and the sport of dogs and the
example she sets for both new and more experienced breeders alike. We're also
proud that Debbie, along with the other Breeder of the Year group honorees, is an
AKC Breeder of Merit - part of a select group of AKC breeders that truly are the backbone of the sport and the foundation of our organization. Each year, one honoree is
chosen from each of the seven groups: Sporting, Hound, Working, Terrier, Toy, NonSporting, and Herding. From those seven, one Group winner is selected as “AKC
Breeder of the Yea” during the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship, which was held
this year in Long Beach, CA. The Breeder of the Year ceremony will be included in the
show's telecast on ABC television on Sunday, January 23, 2011.
The Sporting Fields prefix was used as early as 1945 by Debbie Butt's parents when
registering Spaniels. Whippets were added in the late 1960s; with the purchase of the
Canadian-born Ch. Winterfold's Bold Bid in 1970 and the English import Ch. Charmoll
Clansman three years later putting Sporting Fields at the top of the Whippet charts.
Clansman's son Ch. Sporting Fields Clansman (“Buoy”) won the Hound Group at Westminster in 1981 and 58 AKC all-breed Bests in Show throughout his career.
Debbie started handling early and took her first BIS win with Bold Bid in 1976,
when she was barely a teenager. She also handled Buoy to his first and last BIS wins,
as well as BIS at the American Whippet Club (AWC) in 1984. In the 1990s Debbie
showed Buoy's great-grandson Ch. Sporting Fields Kinsman to 51 AKC all-breed Best
in Shows and the AWC National in 1992. Among Sporting Fields' 21st century winners,
Ch. Sporting Fields Rock on has won more Bests at Specialty shows than any other
Whippet. Sporting Fields has maintained a broad breeding program and produced
several hundred champions, five of which have won the AWC National Specialty, including in 2010.
As the 2010 AKC Breeder of the Year recipient, Debbie will be honored with a commission from a canine portraitist to memorialize a prominent dog from her kennel and
her name will be inscribed on a perpetual trophy. They will remain on permanent display at the AKC headquarters in New York City. All seven Group honorees were presented with medallions during the show on December 5, 2010. Group winners included:
•

WHIPPET HEALTH FOUNDATION, INC.
HEALTH CLINIC INFORMATION
The Whippet Health Foundation will be conducting health clinics in conjunction with the 2011 AWC National Specialty. CERF, BAER
and cardiac echocardiogram clinics will be held as well as AKC DNA Profile and Myostatin deficiency testing. The Whippet Health
Foundation will be subsidizing a portion of the per dog cost for BAER, cardiac, and myostatin testing for those dogs participating in the
WHF database. In addition, this year we will be acquiring blood samples for a WHF-subsidized thyroid study that will determine normal
thyroid values for our breed. Please see below.
All test results subsidized by and released to the WHF Database will be public record.
HEALTH CLINIC SCHEDULE AT THE 2011 AWC NATIONAL
Eye Clinic: Wednesday, April 6th. This clinic will be conducted by Dr. Erica Tolar, DVM, ACVO. The cost is $30 per dog. The
CERF (Canine Eye Registration Foundation ) exam is a yearly test that examines your dog’s eyes for inherited eye disease. The exam
will require pupil dilation and takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes. This test is required for all sires and dams of futurity nominated
litters. The clinic will run from 9AM until finished.
BAER Hearing Clinic: Tuesday morning, April 5th. This clinic will be conducted by Dr. Susanne Hughes. The cost is $45 per dog.
The BAER (Brain stem Auditory Evoked Response) test is a once per lifetime test to definitively determine if your dog can hear from
both ears. The test usually takes 10-15 minutes and sedation is not necessary. If you are willing to enter both your dog and the
BAER result into the WHF database, we will subsidize $20 of your cost, so you will only pay $25. These results will be
acquired the day of the test. Additional exam time will be scheduled, if needed, later in the week.
Cardiac Echocardiogram Clinic: Monday April 4th through Friday, April 8th. This clinic will be conducted by Dr. Rebecca Stepien
and the cardiology team from University of Wisconsin, Madison. There will be two clinics…the first for dogs already enrolled in the
cardiac study and the second for dogs not enrolled in the study where the owners want heart clearances. All exams will take 30
minutes. Please read the following carefully so you know which clinic to sign up for and what the cost is:
1. Cardiac Study Recheck Clinic: This exam is for those dogs already enrolled previously in the cardiac study. The cost of the
recheck exam to you is $50 (the WHF will subsidize the additional $50 for the full $100 fee). All dogs over 7 are FREE. When you
send in your sign up form, be sure to mark the RECHECK box. All rechecks will be given priority in the cardiac clinic.
2. Cardiac Clearance Clinic: This exam is for anyone wanting a pre-breeding or health clearance check on a dog not in the above
study. The cost of the exam is $175. If you are willing to enter both your dog and the echocardiogram result into the WHF
database, we will subsidize $50 of your cost, so you will only pay $125. These results will be acquired the day of the test.
Only one whippet will be allowed per owner to pre-register but more will be accommodated if time and space allow.
AKC DNA Profile test: (DNA cheek swab test): $30/sample, mailed in with all samples following the national. Swabs will be available
during the national from Dr. Lisa Costello or you can mail them to her no later than April 15th for submission to AKC as a group. All
swabs must be mailed in TOGETHER to qualify for this special rate...do not send to AKC on your own!
Myostatin Deficiency test: (DNA test for the double muscle gene): $48/sample ($28 for database participants), mailed in with all
samples following the national. Swabs will be available during the national from Dr. Lisa Costello. If you will not be attending the
national, the swabs from DDC and payment can be mailed directly to Dr. Costello and will be submitted with all samples following the
national specialty (they must be submitted together). These samples must reach her at the address on the health clinic sign up form no
later than APRIL 15th, 2011. If you will not be attending the AWC national and need to order sample collection kits directly, call 1-800625-0874, or email [email protected].
Thyroid Study: You are invited to have your Whippet donate blood for inclusion in the WHF subsidized Thyroid Hormone Study. The
WHF will be collecting blood from healthy whippets throughout the week of the AWC national for the purpose of constructing normal
thyroid hormone reference intervals for the breed. We will be working with Dr. MaryDee Sist at the Michigan State University
Endocrinology Laboratory. At the conclusion of the study, each participant will receive a full thyroid hormone profile from MSU with
interpretations of individual test results. These results will also be archived in the WHF data base for future reference (and therefore
made public). This test will be at no cost for dogs who qualify for the study! Study dogs must not be hypothyroid, have health issues,
or be on medications that would alter normal thyroid hormone values. You can find the sign-up form on the WHF website:
www.whippethealth.org. Please indicate below how many dogs you would like to volunteer for the study and you will be contacted for
further information once the health clinic sign up is received.

compete in and receive scores in all three events. To this end, the top
10 awards will reflect the spirit of the competition.
TRIATHLON ENTRY FORM
The Triathlon Chairman will handle the automatic entry in the Triathlon
Conformation Class. Entries in any regular Conformation, Obedience or
Lure trial stake are the responsibility of the owner.
NOTE: There will be a $10 entry fee required for the Triathlon. Please
send with the entry form below. This must be received by the entry deadline of March 2nd or your dog will not be eligible to
compete in the 2011 AWC Triathlon.
17th Annual AWC Triathlon
The AWC Triathlon competition was developed to recognize Whippets that
excel in three areas of competition: conformation, lure coursing and obedience. The 17th annual competition is open to all Whippets entered in eligible Conformation, Obedience and Lure Coursing Stakes at the 2011 AWC
National Specialty in Lexington, KY. To acknowledge the dogs that excel in
all three areas of competition, there will be 10 placement awards.
Triathlon Trophies
First Place in Triathlon: 10 inch commemorative plate
Second through Tenth Place: 8 inch commemorative plate
First through Tenth Place: Two-tone martingale collar and lead with a
brass plate on the collar with placement engraved. Designed by Bolduc
Leather and offered by Cora Miller of Hound Hill Whippets.
First through Tenth Place: Rosettes.
2011 AWC National Triathlon Rules and Scoring
The total raw scores for all three events will be added together. At the completion of all three events, the dog with the highest point total will be declared the 2011 Triathlon Champion.
Conformation: The base score for conformation is determined by the
judge in the Triathlon conformation class. A numeric score will be given
utilizing a Conformation Score Sheet based on the breed standard having a
perfect score of 100. The 4 top scoring dogs will be ranked first through
fourth place. The high scoring dog will be High Score in Conformation
(HCS). This is not an actual award but is utilized in the case of breaking ties
as listed below. Upon receipt of your entry form, entry into the Triathlon
Conformation class is automatic. This year's conformation judge will be Dr
A. Todd Miller. Handlers with multiple dogs will need to find helpers to bring
their dogs into the ring initially and for a final class evaluation at the end.
Otherwise, you may handle each dog during the individual inspection.
Lure Coursing: The ASFA trial that will be held on Sunday, April 3rd, is the
official AWC trial and should be used in the Triathlon. The base score for
lure coursing is the total final score of points.
Obedience: The base score for obedience is the highest total points earned
in any single-dog entry Obedience trial class. NOTE: Non-qualifying scores
are utilized in calculating the total score. The base score for obedience is a
perfect score of 200 points. Only one obedience class will count toward the
final triathlon score and that class must be declared on the entry form below. For example, if you are entering a dog in the Veteran Class and Novice
B class, you can only count one score for your obedience points. You cannot
participate in both events and choose the highest score. Rather, you must
declare the class to be scored for Triathlon on your entry form and this will
be the only score used for this portion of the event.
Bonus Points
There will be no Bonus Points awarded for placements. The total of the raw
scores will be used. In the case of a tie, placements will be utilized for tie
breaker points. Placements will be given points of 4, 3, 2, and 1 for First
through Fourth place in a four-dog or more class. Only 1 point will be
awarded for a one-dog class, 2 points and 1 point for a two-dog class, and 3
points, 2 points, and 1 point for a three-dog class. BIF, HIT and HCS will be
utilized as final tiebreakers in that order, used only after all placement tiebreaker points have been awarded. To qualify for triathlon placements, dogs
must compete in all three events. If a dog does not compete in an event or
receives a 0 score from an event, they are automatically disqualified from
the Triathlon. The triathlon competition is designed to reward dogs who

AWC Versatility Competition
The AWC Versatility Competition was developed to recognize whippets that excel in four areas of competition: conformation, lure
coursing, rally, and agility. The competition is open to all whippets
entered in eligible conformation, rally, agility classes, and lure trial
stakes offered at the 2011 AWC National Specialty in Lexington, KY.
Teams may enter both the Triathlon and the Versatility Competition.
2011 AWC National Versatility Competition Rules & Scoring
Teams will be given ranks based on their scores in the respective
competitions. The ranks will be averaged with the lowest total average winning.
Conformation: The raw score for conformation is determined by
the judge in the Versatility conformation class. A raw score will be
given utilizing a Conformation Score Sheet based on the breed standard having a perfect score of 100. Dogs will be ranked according
to the raw score received. This year's conformation judge will be
Dr A. Todd Miller. Handlers with multiple dogs will need to find
helpers to bring their dog into the ring and for a final go around.
ILP dogs may compete in this class.
Lure Coursing: Dogs will be ranked based on their total raw score
regardless of stake entered with the versatility competition dog
getting the highest score receiving a rank of 1, the second highest
score receiving a rank of 2, and so on until all competitors are
ranked. Teams must enter the ASFA trial on April 3, 2011.
Rally: Dogs that qualify will be ranked according to their class and
then their raw score. Qualifying dogs competing in Rally Excellent A
and B will be ranked first, then qualifying dogs in Rally Advanced A
and B, and finally dogs in Rally Novice A and B. Non-qualifying
dogs will be ranked by class with all NQ dogs in the same class receiving the same rank. Dogs that compete in both Rally Advanced
and Rally Excellent must declare which class they want scored on
their entry form; only ONE class is allowed for scoring and must be
declared at the time of entry.
Agility: Dogs must enter both the Standard and Jumpers classes.
Qualifying dogs will be ranked in the same manner as rally according to class (Excellent, Open, Novice in that order) and then raw
score. Non-qualifying dogs will also be ranked as in rally. Dogs
entering preferred classes will be scored in the corresponding class
(Excellent, Open, Novice.) However, dogs that normally run in
regular classes many not enter a preferred class solely for the purposes of this competition. The raw scores from the Standard and
JWW classes will be added together and divided by 2 to get a final
agility ranking. Teams must enter the Whippet Specialty trial on
April 2, 2011.
Ties: For tie scores, each dog will receive the same rank with the next highest scoring dog receiving a lower rank depending on how many dogs tie.
For example, if dog A and dog B receive a score of 285 and dog C receives a
283, dog A and B would receive a rank of 1 and dog C would receive a 3.
Overall Placement: The ranks from lure coursing, rally, agility, and conformation will be added together and divided by 4 to receive the final score
for overall placements. In the case of ties, raw scores will be used in this
order: Lure Coursing, Conformation, Agility, and Rally.
All dogs must be handled by their owner in all sports
(including conformation).

Testimonials for Show Dog Video Pro —
I am so glad that you are having Show Dog Video Pros video the National again in 2011. I was so impressed on how it was so professionally done in 2010. I did not have any Whippets entered at the show giving me time to speak many of my friends and exhibitors. I spoke to the gentleman doing the filming and what a nice pleasant person he was. He showed me exactly how he
would be filming and explained that each Whippet would be named along with sire and dam. He also said that when time permitted any exhibitor was welcome to review their Whippet in its class. I frequently went back and looked at his work. All I can
say is exceptional. I purchased the entire show package that he offered at the show.
When the DVD's arrived I was not disappointed. I have watched the National again and oh what I missed. A great review of a very
nice show of quality whippets. I will certainly be first in line to purchase the 2011 National show package. After all it will be our
25th year!!!!!!!!!
Barbara Henderson, VMD
Dr. Irv Krukenkamp's attention to detail, commitment to quality and timeliness of production are unparalled in my experience
with dog show videographers. He and his wife June are longtime Dalmatian breeders and both have extensive experience producing videos of many breed national specialties. In other words, Irv and June are talented techno folks who really 'get' what
we need and want in our National Specialty video.

most of his wins in major competition against some of the country’s top bitches.
Shown 20 times from September through early December, Viggo won 19 BOB and 15 Hound Group placements, including
several 1sts and Hound Club Best in Show.
This is in addition to his first Group 1st and an AWC Specialty Best in Show during the summer.

The AKC Eukanuba National Dog Show was held on December
4th & 5th in Long Beach, California for the last time for a few
years. It was our last chance to showcase Whippets in the Meet
The Breeds event here, so we wanted it to be something special
that folks would really remember. We succeeded by our own
standards and even caught the eyes of the judges and were
awarded Fourth Place in the Hound Group. This was the first
award we’ve received and not easy to come by.
Some of the breeds go all out and even have professional movers moving in stage scenery for their booths.
We always have a great group of volunteers and this year was
no exception. Kerrie Kuper gets the award for travelling the
furthest, followed closely by Christine Heath and Carol and Ryan
Zienert from Alabama. Our Southern California contingent was
there in full force, but it was nice to have these “outlanders”
there. Now they know just what to do when it’s in Florida next
year.
One of the things that made this year so special was the fabulous 8 x 10 backdrop that Pam Magette designed and had
made. She took a photo of one of her beautiful paintings and
worked some computer wizardry by putting draperies on either
side and a small table with a vase of ivy below. It looked like
you were entering an elegant living room and the table was so
realistic that people kept trying to set things on it. One corner
had a charming fireplace with a flickering fire (electric, of course)
and an inviting red leather wing chair sat in the other corner. Thanks to Sharon Sakson who loaned us some of the artwork from her booth in New York, we flanked one wall with art
posters by Yvonne Sovereign showing the diversity of Whippet
activities. Another spectacular banner by Yvonne served as the
skirt for the front of our booth.
Thanks to Daniel Lockhart and Jo Rufing, we had a variety of
Whippet sculptures and artifacts to help set the mood. Nancy

Volin, President of Pampered Pet Treats, donated treats for all the
dogs and we also took care of the humans by keeping a fresh supply of chocolate at hand. Our slide show had over 250 photos of
Whippets of every possible age and engaged in every possible activity running constantly for folks to enjoy.
The Whippets and their owners sat in front of the table and interacted with the public. When they got tired (the Whippets, not
the people) they could come inside the booth and lounge on strategically placed cushions and throws as only Whippets can do. We
handed out or had available a variety of reading materials including, “The Whippet,” “A Dog Buyer’s Guide,” “What’s The Truth
About Sighthound Puppies” and “Reasons NOT To Get A Whippet.”
Henry and I left Sunday night with a good feeling of accomplishment knowing that we educated and entertained a lot of people —
some of whom had never heard of a Whippet and others who are
hoping to add one to their family.

WRAP Report: Paulie's Gift
By Brigitte Greenberg
When Paulie, the fawn and white Whippet, came into Rescue
about nine years ago, there was no way to know that he had the
special gift of being able to detect cancer. People have written
about this unique ability that some dogs have, but Paulie had
been chained outside and left there for most of his life without
socialization. The 3-year-old Whippet had been taken to a vet to
be euthanized because he had killed the owner's cat. Whippet
Rescue and Placement (WRAP) volunteer Linda Stewart, of the
central coast of California, took Paulie in and made earning his
trust her project. He was so frightened that it took almost two
weeks for him just to learn not to run from her, and after he was
neutered, she had to work to rebuild his trust once again. Michal
Moni already had one rescue who had just died and so he was
looking for another. Stewart knew immediately that it was a
good match because Moni had experience with a Whippet with
trust issues. Sure enough, Moni, a nurse by profession, and
Paulie developed a special bond. “It took several years of love
and reassurance, but the end results were amazing,” Moni said.
Over the course of the years, Moni and his husband, John Bizell,
grew ever closer with Paulie, but it wasn't until one night in late
September of 2010 that Paulie demonstrated his ability to detect
cancer.
Paulie had always been enamored of friend Michael King,
dancing and jumping around when he saw him, but this evening
was somehow different. King came over to Moni and Bizell's
home in Indio, California, for dinner and Paulie did his usual
jumping dance. Then suddenly, Paulie lunged and nipped Mike's
shin. “Needless to say, we were all horrified, and being a nurse I
jumped in and cleaned and bandaged Mike's leg, apologizing
profusely, and there's Paulie walking around wagging his tail like
nothing had happened,” Moni said. “Dinner went on as planned
but throughout the evening Paulie never left Mike's side, and the
shin wound not stop bleeding.” Moni and Bizell urged their guest
to call his doctor in the morning and have him take a look at the
leg and to please send them the bill.
“We received a telephone call the next evening from Mike
stating that he was heading into surgery. Panic raced through
our minds at that moment, until Mike explained that he had indeed gone to see his doctor that morning and his doctor took
one look at the bite and said it was strange because Paulie had
just lifted a flap of skin and that underneath was a strange looking lump.” An emergency biopsy determined the lump was a
rapid spreading cellular cancer, a return of the non-Hodgkins
lymphoma that King had had before.
“The doctor said that had I waited another week or two it
could have very well have gone into the bone and if not my life,
at least my leg, would have been lost,” King said. “Had it been a
couple of weeks later, I would have had to have my left leg amputated below my knee.” After surgery and chemotherapy,
King's cancer is once again in remission. “How do dogs know?
That was so amazing,” King said.
Moni called it, “the last and most precious gift Paulie could
have given.” Paulie subsequently died from lymphoma. “It has
been decimating because I had gotten Paulie as a scared little
Whippet,” Moni said. “He was a mess when I got him, and he
turned out to be the most loving animal I could ever have
known.”
In addition to Moni and Bizell, King said he, too, is heartbroken and mourning the loss of Paulie, whom he credits with saving his life.
