The ONLY petition or request I know of, the GSDCA Board refused, was the one made by the WS Folks. The wGSD groups have NEVER petitioned the Board. As a matter of fact, the MAIN reason we MUST sent a wGSD representative to these Board meetings, is to respond to the WS folks presentations to the Board. The WS folks are the only ones making GSDCA Board requests for Board time at these meetings. Barb Hively - PA DNA. It's what makes a white, a German Shepherd -----Original Message----- From: Joan Fox <campaignersgsd@xxxxxxxxx> To: German Shepherd <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>; janandmort <janandmort@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, Nov 14, 2013 7:57 pm Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Clarification please The Board has been petitioned for many years to eliminate the DQ by GSDCA members who have the white dog. In turn the Board represents ALL of its members and must address the issue which it has in its fiduciary responsibility to do so. I think my synopsis is correct-- if not then I stand corrected � When and where did this Board or any Board in the last 1 years receive a petition on the matter of the whites? There was one petition that the Board at that time chose not to hear but the exact subject escapes me at this time. I will look it up in the minutes when I get time. Joan Joan F.
