>I know and respect Patti Strand for her work and think that we all need to be members of >NAIA For $35 you can join NAIA as an individual member. I urge all of you to join. These folks work hard against the Animal Rights agenda and a measly $35 membership is the very least you can do to support their efforts on behalf of all dog owners and lovers. BTW, I learned that the GSDCA used to be a member but hasn't paid their dues recently. Board members on the list - I hope you remedy that at your board meeting this weekend.
