We should all send a thank you note to those who have supported our cause, and keep them â??in officeâ?? and on our â??notify listâ?? when this comes up again. Notice I said WHEN, because it will. We all can do this, and thanks to everyone for their time and efforts, especially to Paul Root for his perseverance and prodding us to act. I think we finally got it, Paulâ?¦ We as a GROUP can be just as significant as the ARâ??s, after all our breed IS The GERMAN SHEPHERD.
