I made my personal futurity donation by double entering two puppies to the tune of $50 each. A regular entry would have been $20, and I can't imagine that putting the dog's name in 2 catalogs actually costs the club $30 more....so I will consider that my donation to the futurity system!.....$30 x 2 = $60.... That will help out a little! ~Cyndi Flautt. Sent from my iPhone On Mar 1, 2011, at 8:20 AM, InquestGSD@xxxxxxx wrote: > Did you read the post asking for donations?
