The GSDCA will honor Military Working Dogs, SAR (Search and Rescue), Law Enforcement, Port of Entry German Shepherd Dogs and their Handlers on Friday Night October 11, 2013. in conjunction with our Centennial. Prior to the Honor Ceremony the GSDCA will host a Cocktail/Hors D'Oeuvres Reception at the Host Hotel. This Ceremony will be very special. We are honored to have Dr. Cynthia Otto, DVM, PhD accept our invitation to give a Key Note Address. As you may know, Dr. Otto studied the effects of 9/11 on the SAR Dogs and is currently engaged in developing a genetic based Working Dog Program at the University of PA Vet School. Dr. Otto's work takes on new and serious ramifications as the Gov announces Lackland Air Force Base will NO LONGER ENGAGE IN THEIR BREEDING PROGRAM for Working Dogs. New information about our Centennial will be forthcoming on the CENTENNIAL WEB SITE Watch for information on Hotels/Motels, schedules, complimentary tickets for FRIDAY NIGHT ETC. Please support your club's Centennial by donating any amount you can.
