I think some of this dialogue was meant to be funny and then part was taken out of context. This is a huge problem for our club and while not everyone will be happy with the answers let's try to keep the perspective here. -------Original Message------- From: Danannkennel@xxxxxxx Date: 02/08/05 11:01:22 To: almanya@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: one central location In a message dated 2/8/2005 8:49:36 A.M.

Who needs us when you have a real convenient location for yourselves. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I don't think anyone in the club wants to disenfranchise any members. I think what everyone is hoping to find is great locations in the east, midwest, and west. and rotate it. We want everyone at the nationals - We want as many dogs to be shown as possible.that is what we go for the dogs. The last 2 years the nationals have been at the farthest opposite points in the country. The entries have been way down - This is good for no one.
