I agree, I do not think the verbiage is quite right at this time.? It is very open to individual perception. -----Original Message----- From: Tari Kridler <chsweetsun@xxxxxxx> To: MyJoyGS@xxxxxxx; fmurch@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tue, 18 Sep 2007 7:24 am Subject: NOT GOOD!! Code of Ethics on Ballot I cannot believe I'm doing this.? I just have a passion for it tho, so here goes.? The proposed changes to the Code of Ethics are not good.? They are very open ended.? Who is to say that if you breed to a dog that You feel is a good dog, but Joe-Shmo doesn't, won't turn you in and say that you're breeding standards are not for the betterment of the breed.? The last line of the proposed changes is Not Good. It should, as stated below, protect the betterment of the breed, but not be so "Hitler-Like". I am just asking you all to READ IT very carefully and think about this before you decide. Tari Kridler Home of 2003 GVx Ch.Kridler's Ruby& 2xSel. Ch.

When I opened and read my ballot this evening, that was my exact? thought there is no place in the proposed by laws that protects us from another? "hunte type invasion"? I thought the above was to be put in there as? well.? I am no lawyer but the way it is now and the proposed version sure? has a lot of holes. Joyce Joyce?
