Changing our Standard to make the Germans happy and putting the Parent Club Logo on a private persons book to be published. I yelled, I screamed, banged my shoe and fought like hell. Now I'm to old and tired to fight. You young active people, pick up the mantel and fight for your beliefs. Your turn now!!!! I remember the first time the SV told us we had to use the German standard or we couldn't call our dogs German shepherds. My response was that we would call the Schuferhunds instead. I think Ken made short work of the demand, and we seem to have a good relationship with the SV at this time. I also fought using the Parent Club Logo on Carmen's book. Thanks to Helen, we denied it being used. I am older than Helen, but I, for some reason, am still fighting.
