Dear List Members We have so many wonderfully talented list members that we wanted to share their knowledge in our New Feature Called Wagging Tails. On http://showgsd.org/waggingtail/index.html, there is the beginning of what is hoped to be a continual "parade" of list members' articles about their expertise in our GSDs: their grooming, their structure, how to take their pictures, their health and so much more. We will also gladly reprint, with full credit, articles from GSD Newsletters.
