I apologize everyone if this has come across the list previously. Kathy As the new Purina Alliance Chair, it gives me great honor to announce the Futurity Stimulus Program. So, OK, maybe I borrowed a word but this stimulus program will not cost the GSDCA members anything, in fact it offers you the opportunity to Futurity nominate your litters for FREE. You read this correctly, to enhance and increase the Purina Alliance by increasing the Futurity Litter Nominations and hopefully the Futurity Entries and new Futurity champions, you can now nominate your litter for NO COST if you complete this nomination before the puppies are two weeks old. In fact, you can nominate the litter BEFORE they are whelped. If you wait until the litter is over two weeks old, the normal fees will apply. The Litter Nominations will still be sent to Laura Gilbert, her email is LauraEG@xxxxxxx, nomination forms are also available on GSDCA.org. Complete details will be printed in the Review and if you have any questions, please contact me via email at PurinaAlliance@xxxxxxx or Lewieb@xxxxxxx or call 816-941-4534 and of course you may also contact Laura. Thank you for supporting the Purina Alliance Program, the program that pays the GSDCA for each litter Futurity nominated, each nominated puppy when they are shown in a Futurity and for each nominated puppy that completes their AKC Championship. The funding by Purina pays for all Futurity Trophies and sponsors the GSDCA Futurity at the National including the Breeder of the Year Trophy; it is a very major funding program provided by Purina for the GSDCA Futurity. The GSDCA is YOUR club, the Purina Alliance Program benefits the GSDCA so nominate those litters for FREE, right now.
