Paul has the right attitude regarding the going forward with a positive attitude. I do agree with forgive, but the forgetting can get us in hot water again. We do need to move forward with the dogs as our first priority. Real intents, not just empty words. For example, I forgave those who lied about me suing the club, but I haven't forgotten their actions. It speaks volumes of their character. Thanks Paul.

The best way I could suggest is to forgive and forget what we have felt in the past , and go forward with the promotion of the GSD as our common cause.
