AKC Gazette
|
The October 2001 issue's
"Show Shots" featuring Pontiac Michigan has a photo of
Christine Engelsman and Ralph. They also appear in the
photo of Vizsla Best in Specialty Show judging on the following
page. Here's Christine's story behind the photos:
On the 19th of August, the Vizsla Club of Michigan put
on their Specialty in Pontiac Michigan. They had a wonderful
turn out of great dogs. In the breed ring the competition was
rough. As the pressure kept coming Ralph and I kept our cool.
After the judge Mr. Larry Berg pointed to Ralph and I, we jumped
for joy. I let Ralph carry the ribbon in his mouth, like he
always does to show off his terrific win to everyone. After Best
In Show, Ralph and I went to take our breed picture. Jill Day
came up to my mom and I mentioning that the AKC camera people
wanted to get a picture of the Specialty breed winner. I was
like "Ya sure go ahead!" Then we started talking with
them and Jill said they were from the AKC Gazette and they
wanted some Show Shots. Not to mention I was thrilled, and so
were the people taking the pictures of my "Superstar"
Ralph, who loved all the attention and impressed the camera man.
About two to three months later my good friend Amy Batzner said
"I love the picture in the Gazette!" I had no clue
they had printed the picture in the AKC Gazette. To say the
least I was ecstatic to see the picture in the magazine. Thank
you very much Jill Day for introducing me to the people from the
AKC. And thank you everyone for your support of Ralph and I. And
most of all thank you to my Mom, for always being there for me
and giving me tips and moral support. I love you!

Penny's Two Cents: The
March 2000 issue of the AKC Gazette, which featured a Dalmation
on the cover, contained a 6-page article entitled "The
Versatile Vizsla". As I read the article and turned to page
50, I was so excited to see a photo of Nancy Schmitt with Rookie
in a beautiful "Come to Front" position! I asked her
to share her story…
I was showing Rookie, CH Starr's
New Recruit CDX JH NA, in the Obedience Open class at the
Elkhorn show on a very hot Monday. It was probably was two years
ago. A photographer had taken several pictures of us and asked
me to sign a release because they might use them in an upcoming
book about Vizslas. They did in fact use a picture of us in the
book. I don't know the name of the book, though (I really should
get a copy!) Imagine my surprise to see the picture crop up in
the AKC Gazette
too!

Excerpts from "Dog Miracles -
Inspirational and Heroic True Stories" are printed. The
tale about a "10-year-old Hungarian bird dog"
protecting its owner's 8-year-old girl from a cougar attack is
accompanied by a photo, and sure enough, there's a Vizsla (it
must be a computer-enhanced photo since the Vizsla is on point
to the cougar, not looking particularly ferocious and
protective!)

In a commercial for ITT Technical Institute, there is a quick glimpse of what I am almost sure is a Vizsla. Mark has seen the commercial also and thinks it is too. The problem is that it is shown so fast you don't get a great look.

An "Angelsoft" toilet
paper commercial features a family stacking 4-paks at strategic

puppy in through the doggy door so the route is padded and the
speeding puppy doesn't skid into the cabinet doors but rather
into the cushioning of the Angelsoft. (Penny Honetor)

Home & Garden - Celebrity
Home Showcase

I was watching a celebrity home
showcase. The opening of the episode featuring movie actress
Jill Clayburg showed the narrator and Jill talking and walking
around her estate. They were being followed by Jill's dogs: 2
Yellow Labs, a Dal and a Vizsla! As they interviewed the
decorator in Jill's living room, who should saunter by but her
V! Where do you think they encountered the V again? As they were
touring the master bedroom where they found the V snoozing on
her BED!!!! (Joy Sonsalla)
