Message from Jodi Belanger, President, British Columbia G.S.D.C. Inc. (Permission to cross-post to other GSD Lists) * We regret to inform you Pamela ODell is unable to judge our Specialty Show on Saturday, July 27th, 2013. Our club failed to provide Ms. ODell with the the correct date in writing, and therefore we take 100 percent ownership of this misunderstanding. We apologize to Mr. ODell and we will do all possible to secure her services for our show next year. * Our Club is pleased to announce another Wild West Coast Judge, Jack Kilgour has accepted the assignment to judge. This sort of messes a bit with our 5 Women theme, and he has declined to even entertain the suggestion of judging in drag. He did made some reference to bringing along a fishing net (or maybe he said, *wearing something made of fishnet*) as a gesture of solidarity with this otherwise all-woman panel. The British Columbia German Shepherd Dog Club, The Northern Lights (Prairie Region) German Shepherd Dog Club and the G.S.D.C. of Canada have all come together for one incredible July dog show weekend to bring you: What * The Wild-West Coast Weekend of Judging When * July 26th, 27th and July 28th, 2013 Where * One Location - Surrey BC (half hour drive from Bellingham, WA or Vancouver, BC) Entries Close * Wednesday July 10th at noon <http://www.canuckdogs.com/upload/DogShowDocs/032c4367-c3e9-11e2-b668-00c5d9 f02afc.pdf> http://www.canuckdogs.com/upload/DogShowDocs/032c4367-c3e9-11e2-b668-00c5d9f 02afc.pdf More Shows * Same Location * 4 All-breed Shows (Pacific Kennel Club July 25th to July 28th) Entries Close * Thursday, July 4th at noon. **PLEASE NOTE the earlier Closing Date <http://www.goto-enter.com/pdf/pkc1307pl.pdf> http://www.goto-enter.com/pdf/pkc1307pl.pdf Special Events * Specialty Show Ringside Mentoring and the Let Them Stand Loose Seminar- July 27th (For All-Breed Judges, German Shepherd Dog Fanciers and all of our Junior Handlers) Registration and Cost * In advance, and there is NO Fee.
