About the author
LORENE VICKERS-SMITH is an American Kennel Club judge and dog breeder licensed to judge the Toy Group, Best in Show, and part of Non-Sporting.
Vickers-Smith became an AKC judge in 1980. She established the Wisselwood line of Pugs in 1964 and added Brussels Griffons approximately 15 years later, serving as longtime President of the National Brussels Griffon Club and founding the Mid Michigan Pug Club in 1979. She is Judges' Education Chairman for the American Brussels Griffon Association and a Life Member of both parent breed clubs.
