| I just sent the GDSCA, asking of they have a list of participants posted, if so, what the address is. http://www.gsdca.org/gsdca_joomla/images/pdf_items/2009_advance_brochure.pdf Big event is this a step in the right direction?? SELECT EXCELLENT AWARD This award, an enhanced attachment to the Select Award, recognizes the superior, mature dog. ELIGIBILITY: Champions with certified hips/elbows, OFA, OVC or SV “a” stamp Normal, certified after the age of 24 months, who are in competition for and receive the Select rating at the National, any dog/bitch with certified hips/elbows entered in a non-regular class (Veterans) that moves up to BOB competition, and Winners Dog/Winners Bitch who receive a Select rating at the National. Mail or fax the following information to Chairman, Patty Szymczak, 1527 Mohawk Dr., Schaumburg, IL 60193. Phone: 630-980-4438 Fax: 630-529-7396. REQUIREMENTS: copies of dog’s hip and elbow certificates, name and address of current owner, phone or fax number, and e-mail address. Questions? Call 630-980-4438 or E-mail PAGAIRS@aol.com. COMPLETE INFORMATION AND OFA DOCUMENTATION MUST BE RECEIVED BY OCTOBER 15, 2008. ALL DOCUMENTATION SHALL REMAIN THE PROPERTY OF THE GSDCA. NO FEE.

The required information must be given to Chair Patty Szymczak no later than 5:00 p.m. on the day before BOB judging. Be prepared with needed information as without proper ID, there can be no exceptions. Any dog/bitch that has received the "Select Excellent" award (once their identifying information has been recorded by the Chair) need not re-submit that information again, if the dog is entered at subsequent National Specialties in competition for the Select rating, BUT they must notify the Chair that their dog has been entered again. |

| Sitas Mom, the Excellent Select requirements listing you quoted is for the conformation show dogs at the GSDCA National Specialty. The National Working Dog Sports Cup is a seperate schutzhund event. Terri |

| sitasmon, I think it is a pretty sad commentary on the Am. S/L that the parent club offers an extra award as an incentive for breeders to certify hips and elbows. Rik |

I attended the Nationals this past weekend and only a handful of people actually attended the WDS event. True the weather was awful, but this was a National event and maybe 20 people showed up.Shame on all of you for not supporting this event, ooooops, that's right there were no American bred dogs in it. This event will probably die on the vine as so few people show in this sport, but of course the good ole AKC will not recognize the SchH titles so they make up another event to make more $$$$. |

| Who won the WDS Cup Championship? |
by Samba on 22 October 2009 - 12:40 |
| I don''t know who won. Only three dogs and two handlers showed. It was cold and pretty miserable out as the weather was 20 degrees below normal in Ohio plus wet and windy. There were two dogs for WDS2 and one for WDS3, I think, I am not sure why it was called a championship. |
