To the President, the Officers and Board of Directors of the German Shepherd Dog Club of America, My name is Terra Fairburn and I breed, show and love German Shepherds. I am also a member of the GSDCA and a past member and President of the GSDC of the Quad Cities. Our Club disbanded two years ago for several reasons. The economy, small membership, messy politics, and people needed a break from the work load. Since that time it seems that the National Club has been in havoc (IMO). Why does this continue? What is the mission of this Club and why isn't it functioning in a collaborative and fiscally sound way? Why can't the membership know what is going on? I have heard that there is a private donor willing to pay for all the cost of having SOD at the National and President Tish is dragging her feet by not responding to a very important meeting that must occur by tomorrow. Would politics cause this to happen? Doesn't it say in the P/P that we are to have our National Show on SOD? If there is no cost to the GSDCA why would our Officers and Board of Directors not find some common ground and do the right thing? This is not for a political group or clique, this is for our National Show, and Our Beloved German Shepherds! Please do the right thing and get together and talk about the SOD. If there is absolutely no cost please allow SOD at the National.
