Judge's Background & History

Mrs. Wendy Maisey
Home: CALGARY, AB T2C 3X
Initial Breed: Dobermans & Miniature Pinschers [Dawnaquinn]

She has bred Dobermans and Miniature Pinschers under kennel name "Dawnaquinn" for over 25 years. Has bred a two time National Specialty winner and top all time (BIS) winning Doberman in Canadian history. Her Min Pins feature prominently in many pedigrees in North America. Her career is as business manager at a brokerage/investment banking firm, but she still shows occasionally and is looking forward to entering into the Cavalier ring with the latest family addition.
Wendy Maisey resides in Calgary, Alberta, Canada with her husband, Dwight, several black & tan Cavaliers and one Berger Picard. She got her first Doberman in 1972 and over the next 35 years produced many champions, BIS & BISS winners that set records for the breed, as well as some outstanding performance dogs. She also bred Miniature Pinschers in the 80s that are behind some of the most successful kennels today. For the last ten years she has bred Cavalier King Charles Spaniels with a strong focus on whole colors that have also set records within this breed. Now retired from a demanding career in Project Management, she is very active in Agility with her Cavaliers being ranked at the top in their breed in several organizations.

Wendy began judging in 1999 and now has 5 groups (Sporting, Working, Toys, Herding, Non Sporting) and will be applying for her Agility Judges license in the near future.
