President
Debbie Tissot
Debbie became involved with show Beagles in 1995 with her first Beagle, Rumba, from Alyce Gilmore of Bayou Oaks Beagles in Louisiana. She has since bred, raised and shown many litters and published the national show Beagle breed magazine Show Beagle Quarterly for 20 years until she closed it down in December 2019. She has been a strong supporter of Beagle rescue efforts in all that time and is enjoying her affiliation with AmBRNet which she began in 2023.
Vice President
Toscha Clausen
Toscha’s passion for Beagle and rescue came in 1999 with her first adoption. After seeing an overwhelming need in the Midwest she became one of the founding directors of Midwest Beagle Rescue, Education and Welfare. Her knowledge of rescue operations is a great resource for AmBRNet and she is excited by the opportunity to assist all Beagles in rescue.
Secretary
Tom Krier
Tom has been active in show Beagles for countless years and is an active and involved member of the National Beagle Club of America, serving in a number of roles including ring steward. He’s now retired from breeding for many years, but has remained committed to the breed for the past 40 or more years.
Treasurer
Mike Simpson
Mike’s introduction to beagles began when asked to help start a 4H Dog Project Club as Adult Leader. A few months later, traveling to pick up a puppy (Willwood’s Remington Steele) for his daughter’s 13th birthday, the world changed. Advocating for responsible pet ownership, experience in design and build a city dog park, stewarding professional at dog shows, and competing in conformation and rally led to first assisting, then board membership, and currently secretary for AmBRNet. What a ride so far!
Directors
Jessica Parker
Jess got her first beagle in 1998. Polly was found in a corn field at about 6 weeks old and was red and white in color. She passed away unexpectedly at the age of 6. This is when Jess moved to show beagles and started with a red and white beagle named Abby. In 2012, Julie Wright asked Jess to be the treasurer for the new non-profit that she was starting. Jess was the treasurer from 2012-2019 and has continued on as a board member contributing where she can.
Cathy Palmer
Cathy got her first Beagle, Abby, in 1985 and she has been hooked ever since! She has shown and bred Beagles and loves working with her bed bug detection dogs, Velvet and Chico. She became the AmBRNet President in 2015 after the passing of founder Julie Wright.
