Jim York is the Temperament Chairperson. Any club that wishes to hold a Temperament Test should contact Jim. TotalDogman@xxxxxxx He then will contact the Evaluators in your area to see who is available and then put them in contact with the club. In this manner the Chairperson, Jim York is aware of all Temperament Tests being held in the country. What is posted on the GSDCA website is information for clubs that are contemplating hosting a test. Since there are many things to consider prior to holding a test this information gives you an insight to what is needed. Besides Dalene, Jim, Laura and myself there are Sr. Evaluators through out the country, however a Regional Club has to request to hold a Temperament Test in order for one to be held. So if there are none being held in your area, check with the local club to see if they would hold one. Lyn Chernak almanya@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: I agree............and point well taken. I just wanted to put Laura's contact info in case anyone needs it. I think Jim York is the new Chair of the Temp committee............... I think it would also be beneficial for clubs as an extra incentive to hold a temp test if they can not only because it's good for our breed and required for some titles,,,,,but it should fulfill one of the many new requirements all clubs will need for applying to hold shows shows.

They should make the information available on the parent club website. There should be a list of the approved testers with names and contact information. What happens when a club does not know Laura Gilbert? Jim York will probably take over for Bob but it would be nice if the parent club had his contact information on the one page they do have for the Temperament test. Bob has been gone for 8 months I think they probably should update the page.

She is a wealth of information on the testing. But it would also be great if the PC website listed the evaluators and their contact info for sure.
