My critic was from a professional point of view. Increasing ads and making the Magazine more enjoyable for the public.I would still like to see the REVIEW made public and sold. ight bring in a few new members, might get the public to understand the breed, might get the public to think twice about buying a dog!!  Morgan Lewis, RPh.

Futurities/ Maturities/ Specials - Needs to be shortened, majar winners only and some of these pictures are so dark!! -----Original Message----- From: MORGAN LEWIS <shadowland22000@xxxxxxxxx> To: gsd showlist <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, Aug 11, 2011 10:27 pm Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] GSD Review - August Since this has been a topic of discussion, lets look at the current monthly. � Front� Cover, as� usual OUTSTANDING � Colored ads, beautiful, but since this is the last issue before National not near as many as prior years, not sure if the� Review has a�sales department 4 two page ads and a single ad in color, 2-two page and�4 single B/W. The� Canadian National;� Ad would have been beautiful in COLOR, in B/W drab. Oh by the way did you notice the $1,5oo in prize money at the� BC Specialty. hum!! � The� ARticles: Hopice Care for Rescue dogs - nice color pics and made me cry; yes folks we do have obligations. � Not sure who the dud is in the bathing suit, but the kid looks like Jackie� Cooper � To� Skater, My Teacher - Great article by� Diane nice pictures � Demise of� AKC Gazette - Nice OBIT � AKC Launches Therapy Dog Program - 10 years too late�!! � ROM DAMS: Well that is what this issue is all about - 34 pages out of an 80 page magazine, keep the pictures of the new qualifiers with info and pedigrees, put the rest in the RED BOOK. � � Futurities/ Maturities/ Specials - Needs to be shortened, majar winners only and some of these pictures are so dark!! � MEMORIALS: If there is anything we do well, its Memorials. AVA's is outstanding, and the picture on the� dock in B/W makes you cry. and ECHO looking so alert and majestic. Note neither is a Champion!! � The LAST AD: Whose idea was this and what did it cost?? 35 years of the National Specialty for only $1,300. Now most of us like to walk down�Memory� Lane but for $1,300 I can feed a whole lot of rescues, furnish several kennels, Vet checks, spaying/neutering. Hell I can go to the National and get drunk with Evan,David, FB and Lee�and hear about all those Nationals (now that would be fun). � This magazine should represent the� Best of the GSD. The better it looks, the better the contents, the more advertising. Cut the quality and everything goes downhill.���� � � � � � � Morgan� Lewis, RPh.
