usca-gsdca/wda,,, conflict how - Page 1

Beats me! They are both judged according to the FCI breed standard by SV judges.

The Johannes amendment is about ego, power, and control--JMHO....

  Well this sucks BIG!!! All I want to do is train and compete and I enjoy competing where ever there is a trial when my dog and I are ready. I also like to support trials in and around my area. I could care less who they belong to. Why is this such a bad thing????????? Can I be an auslander of all of them and compete? That sounds better all the time. My club could be torn apart because of this crap. Gee how fun  :(
 Politics SUCK!

No, to compete at a USA trial the amendment was passed that you MUST be a member.  All other clubs you do not have to be a member to compete at a local trial level, up to nationals - then and only then when you are trying to get on a team, must you join that team's club that you are trying to compete for.  You may also compete at USA local trials IF you are a member of any of the AWDF clubs - like DVG.  I don't think they changed that rule to include "unless you are a member of anther GSD club"  But as no one has published the amendemnts yet, have to wait to see what is specified -

Oh the drama!! I think I'll go watch Young and the Restless for now. Give my brain a break from dog drama to worthless drama  :)
 

It is crazy.....and BS this weekend at a trial I watched a top competitor with a SCH3 atleast 4xs over do a BH with a dog because he did his BH a few years back with WDA and did not want any problems in Florida in at Mali Nationals.
How ridiculous is that, so does everyone have to redo whatever they did not do with USA over? 
While I know that has not been announced, I think he was being proactive just incase!
crazy crazy!

Here are the 2009 amendments for all to read. Kim, where do you got the info from that you have to be an USA member to trial at an USA trial? I did not see it in this amendment.

Crazygsds....that is some crazy sh$$ and it wasnt necessary. Titles itself are not affected at all and are carried on. Even if one is a USCA member and trials at an GSDCA-WDA trial, the title is recognized, it just means you will be expelled by USCA. And I guess then you join the other ones...lol

1. USCA's rules having nothing to do with AWMA ( Mali national)

2. The AWMA National is an IPO event. No BH is need in IPO.

WHOA ELKOORR -

I just deleted my response because I just looked at where you got what you posted from -

You just gave the link to the PROPOSED AMENDEMENTS there is nothing posted regarding what was passed - the agenda is at http://www.germanshepherddog.com/documents/2009GBMagenda.pdf  and therein are the other motions I have refered to - then it refers to the ATTACHMENT for the amendments which is what the link you posted is.  The two documents go together and are collectively what went to vote.

There are minutes posted yet.

According to posts on the Yahoo Groups USA page, it and other motions on the agenda were passed including the amendments you did the document link to.   I beleive the sieger HOT points was the only thing that did not pass.

You need to put both documents together, then for verification absolute, read the minutes when they come out.
