Information on this program is available on page 52 of the new membership handbook just sent out. At www.gsdca.org you click on "Forms" and then "Championship and Performance Awards". We have sent out 181 of these pins and certficates this year. There has been information on this program put on this list every year since 2001 and full information is available at the Business Meeting at the National. The awards recognized, along with the requirements, are listed below. (The agility titles listed below also include the FAST titles.) If you are a GSDCA member and have received a title within the 6 months, all you need to do is request the pin(s) or certificate(s). You may send an email to pkstoesser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with your name and address, your dog's name and AKC number, the title you received and the date it completed the title (within the last year). If you wish to send a copy of the certificate via snail mail, you may but it isn't necessary as the AKC makes it easy to look up the titles. If you are requesting a Working Dog title, you do have to mail the information including the scorebooks since that information currently is not readily available online.
