Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Decision Time

This economy is getting worse, and people are going to be making tough 
decisions. Many will go where they think they get more bang for the buck 
(advertizing) , more input (local vs National), Conformation vs Obedience, 
Agility, Local  shows vs National  SHows. Breeding vs Rescue, DOG or NO DOG!!
 
We don't need more Committees, we need committees with more Autonomy. Give each 
Committee a budget, and freedom to do as needed. (If they need more money find 
a means to raise it)( begging, solicitaion and hard work are allowed.) If the 
"13 Club" needs money for a computer program, determine cost, but just don't 
say "We can not afford it"!! "Breeders Code" Committee decide on 2-3 different 
CODES and put them on the National Ballot, majority Rules!! "Noone has to sign  
A BREEDERS CODE" but damnit if you have one put some teeth in it. Be Proud, The 
GSDCA should not stand for mediocity, You set the  STANDARD for the  BEST 
Health, Temperament and Conformation. That is the only thing that separates the 
GSDCA from the BYB!!
 
GSD Standard - same thing
 
2013 World, determine cost, put a few in charge, that KNOW what has to be done, 
and HOW to raise money and leave them alone to get the job done. We have many 
succesful business people, lawyers, doctors in this great CLUB, they did not 
get there by sitting on their asses and waiting for a handout, they did it by 
using their brains and hard work.
 
REVIEW - Who in the hell determined it takes 2 month deadline for advertising 
to print this magazine. A Bi Monthly kills the REVIEW, and in this day of 
electronic publication a 2 month deadline for ads is ridiculous.
 
White GSD - The SV DQ'd the Whites, the GSDCA DQ'd the Whites, WHY - health 
genetics, none workable, can not see the damn thing in a flock of sheep, stand 
out like a sore thumb in the jungle, too easy to see at night, not angulated 
enough, THEY ARE ALBINO. ENOUGH with the excuses!! These are GSD, like it or 
not!! these people are just as passionate about their White dogs as we are 
about  COLORED. Yes 1 group wants separation, GOOD LUCK ON THAT, (a GSD is a 
GSD) but the overwhelming majority want to be included in the  AKC with the 
rest of us. and show their dogs. Folks that is money in the  bank that is now 
going to the UKC and other registries. We apparetly made a mistake several 
years ago (based on incorrect information), admit the mistake and give them the 
same RIGHTS they had for many years.
 
Folks its time to roll up the sleeves and go to  WORK; we all enjoy  "bitching" 
but you have to have a solution. If yu don't approve of the BOARD or  a BOARD 
MEMBER, vote them out. but remember, those you VOTE IN, may not be any BETTER.

I have to agree Diane, there are a lot of people out there on fixed 
incomes, limited incomes or no incomes at all, and our local club, with all 
five 
working members, has a fee of $25.   I too would   rather support my local 
membership especially since the parent club seemingly has abandonded the local 
clubs financially with the reallocation of the Purina funds slated for the 
futurities.   As I said in a previous post, the national club is nothing 
without the local clubs and the membership support.

Pat
