It does appear they are making an attempt to grow stronger .... and your imagination can then tell you their plans for the future. Since the team supported by the GSDCA is comprised of both WDA and USA members, these proposed changes will certainly have an adverse impact. Perhaps time the WDA comes back to the GSDCA now the AKC has recognized events involving bite work.
