1976 EASTERN ALAC SPECIALTY
The American Lhasa Apso Club held its first independent specialty show Saturday,
February 21, 1976 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, Kentucky. The show
facilities were excellent. With more than four acres of clean, heated and well-lighted
space available, grooming room was abundant and the ring was forty by sixty feet.
The entry was 101 (34 dogs, 44 bitches, 2 veteran dogs, 2 veteran bitches, 17 best of breed
competition, 2 stud dogs, 2 brood bitches, and 6 entered in junior showmanship). There
were only 6 absentees.
The overall quality of the Lhasa Apsos was outstanding. There was a great depth of
merit in the open classes as well as in the puppy classes and among the bred by exhibitor
entries. It is quite obvious that many of the dogs exhibited at this show will go on to
complete their championships. Superb conditioning and exhibitor presentation of the
entries made decisions even more challenging.
Winners Dog, Rin Po Che III, owned by Dorothy O'Connor of Branchville, New Jersey,
came from the open class as did the Reserve Winners Dog, Chiz An Ko-Khyi, owned by
G. E. and Barbara Paisley of Columbia, Maryland. Winners Bitch, Talisman Ah-Chu,
owned by Mrs. Betty Boshart, of Keokuk, Iowa, and Reserve Winners Bitch, Lamplite's
Su Mi, owned by Correl L. Lamping of Waukesha, Illinois, also came from the open
class.
From an exceptionally outstanding class of specials the bitch, Ch. Potala Keke's Yum
Yum, owned by Keke Blumberg of Rydal, Pennsylvania, was selected as Best of Breed
and thus became the first Best-in-Show winner of an independent national Lhasa Apso
Specialty. This seven year old bitch moved faultlessly in the ring. Her balance and
soundness complement her typiness. The Best of Opposite Sex went to Ch. La Ta's Dus
Ten Wun of Larry and Reta Schaap of Park Forest, Illinois. This young male, not yet two
years old, is an outstanding specimen of the breed. His typiness and balance give
promise of a great special's career.

"Kilo" finished his championship in November, 1971 against stiff Mid-Western
competition, becoming a BOB winner and Group Placer along the way. In limited
showing as a special "Kilo" became a Multiple Breed Winner. In the summer of 1975
"Kilo" went to Canada where he was shown sixteen times, winning fourteen
Bests-Of-Breed (going over some of the top Lhasa Apsos in Canada) and seven group
placements over some of Canadas top Non Sporting dogs.
Mr. QuiIley is a noted Canadian and International judge whose recent judging
assignments have taken him to Australia and New Zealand.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
The events of early 1976 set the pace for our Breed not only for this Bi-Centennial year but
also for years to come. The Eastern and Western Specialties hosted by Louisville and Dallas
enthusiasts were exciting events with many people from all parts of the mainland as well as
Hawaii were present to show their interest in the Lhasa Apso. It takes a great effort to
attend our National events and my appreciation for the effort to travel as well as the effort
to host the events cannot be over-emphasized. Your interest and dedication to the Breed will
prove to be the basic ingredients for the preservation of the Lhasa Apso.
Now that our adult dog events are behind us we can concentrate on the young, future
breed improvers by attending our three National Futurities. The Futurities give us a
glimpse of the future as well as an evaluation of our breeding programs. I am sure they will
be as successful and enjoyable as our recent National Specialties.
Best wishes and continued success for this memorable year and may you have many
many more.

Eng. Ch. Shelaurie Piperman 01 llardacre
Hardacre Lhasa Apsos invite offers for this outstanding
young British Champion, born August 1973, and now
coming to his best.
Campaigned from June '75, Piperman has won many
Firsts, culminating in his triumphant progress to Best Dog
and Best of Breed at Darlington and Ladies Kennel
Association Championship Shows, finishing in grand style
by going Best in Show at the Lhasa Apso Club Specialty
from 108 entries on 18 October.
Judge Doreen Richardson (Belazeith Lhasas) reported on
him thus: "Lovely gold in full bloom, flowing in a correct
texture coat that swept the ground. Good body, strong
quarters, moving with plenty of drive. Carrying himself
with pride as if he owned the ring. Nice level topline even
on the move, nice head and eye, shown and put down to
perfection."

A.L.A.C. Fourth Annual Awards Dinner
The American Lahsa Apso Club held their Fourth Annual Awards Dinner at the
Cattleman East, in New York City, February 8, 1976.
Raena Wilks, Vice President of the Lhasa Apso Club of Greater New York, chaired this
event for her fourth successful year. L.A.C.O.G.N.Y. hosted for their second sucessful
year, making quite sure all "tails were wagging" in the traditional Lhasa Style.
David Goldfarb was the moderator of the forum on Genetics. Participants were: Barry
Thompkins, Robert Sharp, Phyllis Marcy, Cathy Marley and Ed Sledzik. Stimulating,
thought-provoking as well as general and specific information, was imparted on the
group. An important fact brought out was novices should talk to experienced breeders
regarding breeding and in-breeding. Much more was discussed and is available on tape.
Contact David Goldfarb.
Steve Campbell, awards chairman, was aptly assisted by Barbara Woods, Fred
Terman and Ricky Siegel. Steve and his group presented the proud winners their
individual awards in a true Parade of Champions.
Although it may have looked "fixed", Elaine Fisher (Elaine sold many of the tickets)
managed to win the Bovarian Wine Bowl. To all those people she promised would win,
you'll have to catch Elaine next year!
Our week-end reporter did notice true old fashion reunions as the miles of Lhasas were
brought together for a "Very Special Lhasa Weekend". Topic of discussion, Lhasa Apsos,
size, shape, health, and I-o-v-e!
May the joyous memories of the fourth year be spread over the year to the fifth with
many more new Lhasa People.
See you all on the Fifth Event!

Lhasa Apso Kidney Research
By Dr. Dr. R. Finco
1. Inheritance Studies
Past - From 1 affected male and 1 female, and their progeny, a total of 11 pups were
whelped and raised. Eleven dogs are in the colony at present. Of the 11 pups 2 of 5
thoroughly studied had renal disease-6 pups are too young for final tests.
Future - Breeding experiments will continue if funding allows. Affected X, affected
matings, affected X related normal Lhasas, and affected X non Lhasa matings are
planned.
2. Blood Pressure Measurements
Past - Measurements have been made using both indirect and direct techniques, of blood
pressure in all Lhasas in the colony at intervals during their lives.
Future - Continuation of the above studies.
3. Serum Calcium Studies
Past - Some serum calcium determinations on Lhasas have been marginally elevated.
Future - Serum calcium determinations will be done at 3, 6, 12, and 20 weeks, on all pups.
4. Tissue Studies
Past - Kidney tissue from cases of advanced disease have been examined from all parts
of the country.
- Kidneys obtained at surgery have been examined.
- Kidney obtained at autopsy (2 dogs) have been compared.
Future - Continuation of the tissue studies.
5. Nephron dissections, study of kidney blood vessels.
Past - none
Future - Will be done if funding allows. Should help in understanding the cause of the
disease.

RENAL DISEASE IN LHASA APSOS
Much concern exists among breeders and owners concerning renal disease in Lhasa
Apsos. The following questions seem to surface in discussions about this problem.
1. Do all Lhasas with renal disease have the same type?
2. What causes the renal disease observed in young Lhasas?
3. How can renal disease be identified early in affected dogs?
4. What is a logical way to eliminate the problem?
Unfortunately, complete answers are not available for these questions. In the subsequent
discussion, the answers that I am providing will in some instances represent fact, and in
other instances represent opinion. I will make it a point to identify each as I proceed. I
ask that you also do so.
1. Do all Lhasas with renal disease have the same type?
It is highly unlikely that all Lhasas with renal disease have the same type of disease.
Multiple causes of renal disease are known to exist in other breeds, and there is no
reason to believe that Lhasas are resistant to the causes that have been identified.
However, renal disease in Lhasas Apsos is more commonly observed in young dogs.
This leads one to speculate about developmental or metabolic defects rather than some
of the causes identified for renal disease in other breeds. Insufficient study has been done
on the problem in young Lhasas to know whether one or several diseases are present.
2. What causes the renal disease in young Lhasa Apsos.
If the answer to this question were known, most of our problems with the disease would
probably be resolved. The fact is that we simply don't know. Evidence supporting certain
theories has been collected, but it is not strong enough to allow sweeping statements. It is
also important to appreciate that "cause of disease" can be interpreted in different ways
dependent on the depth of analysis. For example, studies performed at Davis California
indicate that Lhasas with renal disease have higher blood pressure than normal Lhasas.
High blood pressure, however, cannot be interpreted as the cause of the disease, since it
is equally possible that the altered blood pressure is the effect of renal disease rather
than the cause. In man, it is a fact that patients with renal failure will commonly have
high blood pressure caused by the renal disease. Limited studies on Lhasas at the
University of Georgia indicate that blood pressure is normal early in the course of renal
disease, but becomes elevated when disease is advanced. This supports the theory that
high blood pressure, is not the cause of disease in Lhasas.
Information concerning inheritance patterns or inherited predisposition of the disease
is of vital importance to Lhasa breeders. Casual observation suggests that the disease is
inherited, but this observation, even if fact, gives the breeder no basis for a sound
breeding program to eradicate the problem short of total depopulation of the kennel.
Breeding trials must be conducted not only to confirm inheritance, but to extablish the
mode of inheritance. With the latter information, carrier animals may be identified and
kept from reproducing.
36
Breeding trials at the University of Georgia have revealed that mating of a male with
renal disease with a female without disease (but whose siblings had disease) results in
some pups with renal disease. An affected X affected mating resulted in 2 pups that are
as yet too young to evaluate for the presence of renal disease. Outbreeding trials between
affected Lhasas and normal dogs of another breed are also needed in order to
characterize the mode of inheritance. In addition to breeding trials, other studies of
cause are being investigated at the University of Georgia. Calcium metabolism is being
monitored because some pups with disease have marginally elevated serum calcium
values. Microscopic studies have revealed abnormal parts of the kidney (glomeruli) and
microdissection studies are planned for the future.
One important point to be made in studying the disease is the necessity for making
studies before renal disease has become far advanced. By the time that signs of disease
are apparent outwardly, only one-third or less of the kidney is working. If studies are
done at that point, limited inofrmation can be obtained because the effects of the renal
disease may be confused with the cause. To overcome this problem, studies at the
University of Georgia have been conducted by surgically removing one of the two
kidneys from pups at 3 or 6 weeks of age. The removed kidney can then be compared
with the intact kidney which is obtained when the dog is eventually euthanatized. For
example, it was found that a kidney removed at 3 weeks of age was normal for a dog of
this age. Yet the dog from which the kidney was removed developed renal failure at 4
months of age because of severe disease of the opposite kidney. In this dog, at least, one
can conclude that the puppy either originally had disease in only the kidney left, or that
the disease attacked the kidney between 3 weeks and 4 months of age.
3. How can renal disease be identified early in affected dogs?
Each breeder wants to identify abnormal dogs as soon as possible. Unfortunately, as
indicated previously, renal damage is generally advanced at the time that the usual
signs of disease appear. In my opinion, different severities or gradations of disease in
Lhasas exist, inasmuch as some pups are severely ill at a few months of age, while
others live for years and are capable of reproduction. Regardless of age, the earliest
outward sign of disease is increased water intake and urinary output. At this time the
dog may appear healthy in all other respects. It is important to know that the above sign
is not unique to renal diseases, but may also be observed with several other diseases.
When more renal tissue is destroyed, the dog may have a poor appetitie, lose weight,
vomit, and be lethargic. These signs, when due to renal disease, are referred to as
uremia. On many occasions, the excessive drinking and urinating and the more severe
signs are observed almost at the same time. In young pups, slow growth may accompany
the reanl disease.
In cases of suspected renal disease, we veterinarians may perform a BUN or a serum
creatinine determination. When these tests are elevated because of renal disease, they
indicate that 1/4 or less of the kidney tissue is working. Since 3/4 of the kidney may not be
working before abnormal results are obtained, it should be apparent that these are crude
tests. While abnormal results are valuable in telling us that renal malfunction is present,
negative results do not rule out the possibility of renal disease. For this reason, BUN and
serum creatinine determinations are of value as screening tests only for detecting severe
disease; normal values do not eliminate the possibility of renal disease.
37
Actually, the ability to concentrate urine is slightly more sensitive than BUN and
serum creatinine in detecting renal disease. If a dog can concentrate its urine to a
specific gravity of 1.025 or greater, it suggests that at least one-third of normal kidney
function exists. But since ,two-thirds of normal kidney function must be lost before
concentrating ability is lost, a normal urine specific gravity cannot be totally depended
upon as an indication of freedom from renal disease. Unfortunately, more sensitive tests
of kidney function are usually outside the realm of clinical veterinary practice. An aid in
diagnosing renal disease aside from function is the determination of kidney size either by
feeling the kidneys through the abdominal wall or by xrays taken after injection of
contrast agents (excretory urogram or IVP) . My experience with renal disease in
Lhasas indicates that renal size changes (small kidneys) are only apparent once disease
is advanced. I am of the opinion that determination of kidney size is not a reliable
method of screening Lhasas for renal disease in the sense that normal kidney size does
not rule ow the possibility of mild disease.
In summary, the unpleasant message is that giving a dog a "clean bill of health" by
any method short of examining kidney tissue is not feasible at present. Kidney biopsy
would provide earlier diagnosis, but is impractical as a routine screening procedure.
4. What is the logical way to eliminate the problem?
A better understanding of the disease is essential for its elimination. Causative factors
must be identified. If inherited, the pattern of inheritance must be determined so that a
logical method can be employed to eliminate propagators of the problem from the
breeding pool.
This requires a realistic approach by Lhasa breeders to first of all admit that a
problem exists, and secondly to lend financial support to research on the problem. It is
my opinion that the problem is not "going to go away by itself".
