THROWBACK THURSDAY!!!Sharing this wonderful post from the AKC Library & Archives:

"While we often sing the praises of renowned judge, dog writer, and handler Anne Rogers Clark, we are equally smitten with her glamorous pioneering mother, Olga Hone Rogers. As the founder of Surrey Kennels, Olga instilled Anne with her penchant for Poodles (and English Cockers). In 1931, after Olga criticized Abercrombie & Fitch for its handling of the sale of one of her dogs, they hired her as the head of its purebred dog department, which she steered for six years toward being a center of stylish dog clipping and goods sold. Later, as a result of financial hardship due to the stock-market crash, Olga opened a grooming business in uptown Manhattan called Dogs, Inc., where young Annie learned the ropes."

THROWBACK THURSDAY! Thanks to Poodle Variety magazine.

“Two big boxes of photographs to add to the archives just arrived - I opened one box and this is the first thing I see. (this won’t mean a lot to some of you, but it’s going to just kill us old hands) Mrs. Annie Clark judging in California giving an award to Standard Poodle “Bel Tor Hugues Capet” bred by Rebeca (Becky) Mason of Bel Tor poodle fame. Amazingly, in this picture the dog is handled by non other than Mr. Tom Stevenson. It’s such a snap back it’s made me smile all day long, so I had to share it with all of you. Photograph by the iconic Joan Ludwig. Color me amazed.”
