One seminar at our National,is not, in my opinion nearly enough. Nancy and all: Actually the GSDCA does sponsor more than one seminar. Judge's groups, kennel clubs, etc. often hold seminars and the GSDCA provides speakers and attendance certificates. The August Multiple Breed Judge's Seminar put on in Indiana, PA. by Dr. Penta and his wife, June, is one that comes to mind as does the seminars held on a regular basis at the International Kennel Club. These two alternates groups so that the herding group seminars and speakers are generally offered every other year. Both of these groups also ask to have animals available for a hands on judging portion.
