I would love to see a progeny group as well as a kennel competition at the national. Terry From: Kathy Tank <rbuffdogs@xxxxxxxxx> To: shadowbrooktx@xxxxxxx; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2013 11:06 AM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Westminster Big Difference ... It is not illegal to show a dog with fertility issues....it IS illegal to show in conformation (other than Veterans) a spay or neuter. If you insist on progeny, then maybe we should start requiring progeny of show age at our Nationals before a dog/bitch can go Select? This is not a European vs US comment , but it is what is done over the pond, and everywhere else in the world. No progeny ....no Select, no Auslese. Works for me.
