I believe it is called the "Doctrine of Unintended Consequences." The
larger the committee making the decision, the more often this happens.
I am sure our board will give further consideration to the plan, and find
a solution. After all, it is a great group, with the best intentions to do
the right thing.

Does this mean a dog or bitch can win the same class in SEVERAL
Futurities......until or unless they win
a Reserve or Best in F. or Maturity .....or Best Opposite F. or
Maturity?
Example.....one male can win Jr. Dog class in four different
Futurities....just not the big wins?? Or up
UNTIL it does win one of the big wins?

2017 Futurity/Maturity Updates!
The GSDCA Board approved three major changes to the Futurity/Maturity
shows for 2017.
* Staggered closing dates. Entries for each region will close
approximately three weeks prior to the show weekend.
* Dogs/bitches may be entered and shown in as many regions as
desired UNTIL they win Best In,
Best Opposite or Reserve.
* Show Secretary services will be done by Foy Trent Dog Shows.
REMINDER: For entry into in the Futurity/Maturity shows, at least one
owner must be a member of the GSDCA. Be sure you have that person's GSDCA
member number as it will be needed for the entry form this year.
The official premium will be out soon, but in the mean time I will copy
and paste info on show dates, closing dates, judges etc. to an additional
post to the list. We are also in the process of getting the info for the
GSDCA website streamlined and updated, so please be patient!
For list members who are new to conformation and or the GSDCA, a post with
a simplified explanation of the Futurity/Maturity system is on the way!
If you have any specific questions please feel free to email
futurityinfo@xxxxxxxxx
Thanks and Happy New Year!
