The Newsletter of the Yankee Weimaraner Club: Summer 2012 YWC Upcoming Events Fun Field Day When: September 30, 2012 Where: Sugarbrook Field Trial Grounds Plainfield, CT Plan to provide shade and water for you dog(s). Birds are $10 each and you will need to let us know how many bird you want.. They have to be ordered ahead of time. Birds are difficult to get this year and we will need to know the numbers ASAP. The Basic Frosty Paws Recipe 32 oz. plain yogurt 1 mashed ripe banana 2 tablespoons peanut butter 2 tablespoons honey Mix all of the ingredients with a blender or mixer and freeze in ice cube trays. Small paper cups and disposable egg cartons also make good molds. When frozen, microwave for a few seconds, unmold, and place the treats in a plastic bag and store in the freezer. (Note: if using Styrofoam egg cartons or cups, rest the containers briefly in a partially filled pan of warm water to loosen contents. Unless the Styrofoam is labeled as microwave safe, it could melt.) If you want to be fancy, bone and paw shaped molds are available.

Kate Masters 8/9/51-7/30/12 The Weimaraner world has lost a friend. Kate Masters of Liverpool NY passed away on 7/30/12 after a long battle with bipolar disorder. She had been active in both the Weimaraner Club of America, and the Yankee Weimaraner Club. Kate was a breeder handler of her Kaceem Weimaraners the foundation of which began with her friend Judy Colan’s Colsidex dogs. She had seen nearly twenty of her dogs finish their championships. She greatly enjoyed seeing her dogs afield, and preparing them for hunting tests. She was very proud of her Ch Colsidex Stitch In Time,SDX,NRD,JH whose photo on point was the model for artist Dick Mitchell’s beautiful painting “A Stitch In Time”. Although Kate’s health and living arrangements these past years did not allow for a large breed such as a Weimaraner, she would still be seen ring side at the Weimaraner ring between showing her Cavalier King Charles Spaniel pups. She often spoke of the day that she could once again fill the void in her life of not having a Weimaraner, clearly her most loved breed. Her health conditions of recent years took greatly from the strong confident woman she had always been. For those that had known Kate as the vibrant women she was during her involvement with Weimaraners they will surely remember her as such. Submitted by Brian Meany
