Here it is Jeff, from Section 2 of our by-laws: "To encourage, promote, and improve the breeding of quality pure bred German Shepherd Dogs" Gary -----Original Message----- From: caggra@xxxxxxx To: willowlakegsd@xxxxxxxxxxx; dogpeople@xxxxxxx; shereemosesgsd@xxxxxxxxxxx; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Fri, 16 Feb 2007 12:09 PM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Hunte I really have a lot to say, but that will come later. For now I want to say this.... I am tired of hearing about how much certain people have done for the breed and that no matter what they do now, it should be ignored because of everything they have done previously. I have respect for what they have done in the past, but put more value on what & how they contribute now and in the future. And it should be stated the other way. What has the breed done for THEM??? And Sheree M.- I am not speaking about Jim. I certainly do not have enough info to come to any type of conclusion as to what you and Jim did or should have done. But there are others involved that have tainted our BOD, the Parent Club and it's membership. I will respond to your statement about Hunte meeting the basic criteria of our bylaws etc. I tried to find the email where I asked the 8 NO's why they felt they could justifyably vote no within our Bylaws. Gary S. replied and quoted a section where it states that members uphold the integrity of breeding etc. (Gary please re-post if you can, so that I don't quote too poorly!) In other words there were 8 board members that felt very strongly that they were within the bylaws to say no to Hunte. So, it was not as clear of a picture as some are painting to HAVE to let him in.
