Hi all. I am sad to be the one to tell everyone that the GSDC of Dallas is closing. I found out about it this weekend at the Nolan River K C/GSDC of Ft. Worth shows. Ileana Noguras was looking for ways to save the club but the board voted to close up as no one wanted to help with shows anymore. Other than Ileana no one showed in conformation. There were a couple of long time members who no longer show and the rest are in to schutzund. My father and I wanted to join as we moved to the Dallas area in May but you had to attend two club meetings to join. We missed the June meeting as we were attending our old clubs shows in Calif. The next meeting in August we attended with our second to be at the next meeting in November. Alas this meeting was cancelled so we did not get to join in time. I would hate to see the club fold and waste all the effort put into it by Ileana and the other long time members. I was told the paper work has allready been sent to AKC. We are willing to run the club and have promise of help both locally and from afar. The person to talk to at AKC is on vacation for a couple of weeks so a dead end there.I doubt that with the holidays any action has been taken at AKC, so does anyone have ideas about who to contact to see if we can get the process stopped? Any and all input will be appreciated. Thank You Heather Breitenstein ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
