Yes, I too have read the pedigree database. The poster has been misinformed. The WDA is not a member of the WUSV and never was. The only two members from the United States of America are the GSDCA & UScA. WDA has been able to process paperwork for those in the sport under the signature of the President of the GSDCA. -----Original Message----- From: Cynthia VanDenBerge <vande001@xxxxxxxxx> To: Destinogs1 <destinogs1@xxxxxxx>; rbuffdogs <rbuffdogs@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: PAGAIRS@xxxxxxx <pagairs@xxxxxxx>; Chris S.

The WUSV was held in the USA to ommemorate the 100 year anniversary of the GSDCA and the GSDCA was the host not he WDA. The WDA and Mr. Yee got saddled with all the work however but had to eport back to the GSDCA for permission to do everything so how could that go rong or slow down getting anything done?? So at the last minute always .. Mr. ee and the WDA had to burn the candle at both ends to get everything ready ecause the GSDCA really didn't care that much about getting things done for their" event which is what the 2013 WUSV was. The WDA pulled the WUSV off and id a good job as proclaimed by everyone but the GSDCA is now complaining that r. Yee used too much ammo in winning the war. He could have split the bullets nd saved on ammo had he just planned better and asked permission to do verything six months in advance as the GSDCA wanted. When the indians are killing everyone on the wagon train no disrespect to Native Americans ) and burning down the fort everyone is appy to see the calvary come to the rescue. However after the poor citizens re saved from scalping or death and sit safe and happy .. then when they get he bill for the ammo, horse feed, and food for the troopers spent for the peration they quibble over how much was spent in saving their sorry asses. The SDCA wanted to be the host of the 2013 WUSV and knew it was coming to them for everal years well before Dan Yee was President of the WDA. Yee and the WDA ran he event and got it done for them and now they want to squeal like a pig about hat it cost .. priceless!! It was not the WDA's event and it was not Yee's ecision for the GSDCA to host the event in 2013 .. that was all the GSDCA and ee just got caught in a situation where he had to make the event happen despite ot being in charge or handling the check book. After the event was successfully done by Yee and the DA the GSDCA is complaining about what it costs .. if Yee had saved $100K and he event had been a horrible screw up would the GSDCA be happy or have taken esponsibility for not allowing Yee to spend the money needed to make the event success?? The GSDCA considers the GSDCA-WDA to be part of the GSDCA (also in he GSDCA president's letter) but they don't want to pay for the costs of the USV 2013 because the WDA did not get prior permission to spend the money ecessary to make the event a success. By the way the WDA has continuously ( he words of the WUSV president ) been a member of the WUSV just as long as has een the GSDCA and the USCA." ------------------------------------------- n Sun, 2/23/14, Rbuffdogs . <rbuffdogs@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: WDA & GSDCA - Dues To: "Destinogs1" <destinogs1@xxxxxxx> Cc: "PAGAIRS@xxxxxxx" <pagairs@xxxxxxx>, "Chris S.

I feel terrible for the membership of the WDA. I know that they are as blindsided by this as the rest of us. Yet another one of Dan Yee's schemes...among many. I send my best regards and utmost respect to the good members of the WDA.
