She is also active in schutzhund. She told me that last year the United Schutzhund Clubs of America passed a rule that you cannot be a member of their club and of the GSDCA. So she will NOT be renewing her membership with the GSDCA this year. I think this is a VERY sad thing! What on earth is going on?? Do we need to fight amunst ourselves?? After all this is the GSD that we are all about right? How can a rule like that be made?
