A couple of years ago, a friend's shepherd won National Herding Victrix. It
was not even mentioned in the Review, much less a picture. Why should
a person want to go a great distance to compete & even win a National
performance venue when it is ignored by the GSDCA. The winners & placers
in Obedience and Agility were recognized & published in the Review but not
the herding.
