OK next question. If the local GSD Club does not want to hold a TC test then is there a way a group of Parent Club members or say a Herding or agility club can host one? I know that insurance would be a must.  What else?

Now the next question is do other breed club hold TC tests? If so which ones. Do the certify their own testers? OR do they have to be certified by the GSDCA? � Here is a link to the GSDCA info on Temperament Testing http://gsdca.org/base/temperament_test.php � The only thing it really needs is a list of testers and how to contact them. It was suppose to be done in 07. Maybe I am crazy but how is a local club suppose to put together a TC test when they have no one to call. Those testers are the best kept secret in the GSDCA Club.
