That is interesting as when I re-newed last year the site membership stated if you are renewing go here and sent me to a different site the higher membership. So you must of renewed as a new member only thing I can explain.

I have been a member in good standing since 1981. Am I mistaken or could ANY MEMBER HAVE DONE THIS?? Penny in NC The Farm Dog Forever No I don't think it is specifically for the White GSDS but, I understand that it is being promoted in their magazine? Join now so you can vote? AND to be clear I have no problem that but I do have a problem with People who can join (no specific person or group) at a huge discounted price while I, a long time member must full price, this year, next year and so on, while people can join for cheap, change the standard and then quit the Parent club and move on. There is my problem. I would like to see the numbers for the people who joined last year at a reduced rate and how many have actually renewed? Anyone know?
