My Life In The SPORT of Purebred Dogs

My Life in the SPORT of Purebred Dogs is the deeply personal, sharply observant memoir of Diane Young McCormack — breeder, exhibitor, and internationally traveled AKC judge whose lifelong journey with Dachshunds has taken her from a childhood in Maryland to Park Avenue, the Westminster Kennel Club, international judging assignments, and ultimately to the highest honors in the sport, including producing a legendary Westminster winner and Dual Champion. Told with candor, humor, and hard-earned wisdom, this book goes beyond ribbons and titles to reveal the politics, passion, heartbreak, triumphs, and unforgettable dogs behind a lifetime in purebred competition. A love letter, a warning, and a legacy — this is the insider story only she could tell. View Less
