Since he is not a member of this list and unable to defend himself as such, I am posting the following with his permission. Lanalee From Carmen Battaglia Fri Sep 4, 2009 11:56 am I have not seen the post by Joan Fox. I am not on the Showgsd-list but I have been called by many people telling me that she has said many untrue things. The facts about Joan Fox are well documented by the AKC who determined that she violated the four month rule. The GSDCA board has asked her to withdraw any and all proposed legal actions against the GSDCA and its board of directors. Since I am running for the Board, along with Nancy Harper Mulvaney, it would appear that what is being said is an effort to sway the election. I have been a member of the GSDCA for over 30 years and have served the club in many capacities. I have been President of the GSDCA and the chair of its many committees. My reputation has never been questioned and I certainly have never removed records from the AKC. I hope that those who become aware of this matter will vote for me based on my record of service and not any false statements or claims to the contrary.
