It would help if tte GSDCA allowed more than just an extremely limited number of evaluators. I do not even know if they have replaced Bob Penny, who our club flew in every other year to run a test. It would be much easier on clubs if there were 2 testers per area so it would simplify scheduling.

This was the organization that did Bucks TT in Dixon. It was held in conjuction to the Northern California Rottweiler Club Rgion 8 Specialty. Granted, there were 3 shepherds there that day, but scheduling, locale, etc. I just happen to know about it because I set up on the "other side" of the fence from everyone. And thought, I wonder if Buck could do it and went for it. I think Kathy Estrada did it as well, along with another GSD person.
