NY State Bill # A09655  (A for Assembly, 0 for 1st and original bill,  
9655 for the bill number.

Sponsor - Harvey Weisenberg, AD-20, Long Island

Designates the German Shepherd Dog as the official state dog.

The bill is under consideration in the NY Assembly Governmental  
Operations Committee

Talking Points

Currently the state of New York does not have an official state dog.   
Eleven other states have designated a dog to be a representative of  
their state.

Designating the German Shepherd Dog as the official state dog would be  
a representation and a symbol of all of the fine and brave dogs that  
did that remarkable and dangerous undertaking that fateful day... 9/11.

Dogs are being memorialized throughout the world for their efforts as  
War Dogs, Search and Rescue Dogs, Assistance Dogs, Therapy Dogs and so  
much more. No dog is more recognizable as a symbol of those missions  
than the German Shepherd Dog.

The wonderful and most recognizable tribute to America's Search and  
Rescue dogs was the DOGNYsm  statues that utilized the German Shepherd  
Dog as their symbol.

These statues are the symbol of all those marvelous dogs and most  
visible as the German Shepherd Dog.  The German Shepherd Dogs is  
remembered through those statues and through deeds as the hero of 9-11.

The German Shepherd Dogs exemplifies fearlessness and self-confidences  
and bravery; traits that New Yorkers displayed that fateful day.

The German Shepherd Dog has a recognizable silhouette from the many  
times it has been portrayed as a symbol of faith, protection and  
security.
