Page 2 Shepherd News From the Editor President s Report Training has well and truly commenced and it is pleasing to see members back at the club. The weather seemed to be getting a little more bearable until the last week of February when temperatures again soared. A timely reminder to ensure your pets have adequate water and shade. As a result of the recent GSDCA AGM held in Adelaide on the 9 and 10 February 2019, a list of 60 day motions has been distributed to all clubs for voting by the members. I urge you all to attend the meeting which will be held on Friday 15 March to have your say. The National Show and Trial in Melbourne is fast approaching. To all those who are travelling, I wish you a safe journey and every success. I am sure it will prove to be a very enjoyable event. With the running costs of the club increasing, the Committee decided at a recent meeting, to increase slightly the cost of goods in the canteen. Both the canteen and shepherd shop are essential in raising revenue for the club in order to keep the club running and have enough funds to make improvements to the club rooms as necessary. We thank all members for their support. Our First Vice President, Jenny De Lucia, will shortly commence an instructor s course to add to the compliment of obedience instructors. I wish the trainees every success and thank them for their dedication and commitment to the club. Enjoy your dogs! John De Lucia President The GSDC of SA Inc.

February Page 5 Breed Affairs Report The Puppy day held in January was again very well attended with approximately Thirty (30) pups and their owners in attendance. The club gained several new members from this event. A grooming demonstration was conducted on February 17th by Erin Carter from Plush Puppy. While the numbers attending were quite small it was a very informative demonstration. Breed Affairs again will have a full calendar of events this year, with the usual number of member Competitions, Championship Shows and an Open Show. The Sunday Championship Show will be known as the Neddermeyer Memorial Show in honour of HJ Neddermeyer and JM Neddermeyer. The Stock Coat Challenge Dog will receive the HJ Neddermeyer Perpetual Trophy and the Stock Coat Female will receive the JM Neddermeyer Perpetual Trophy. It is planned to hold a workshop during the year on proportions and Croups, this will be open to All members. Date to be confirmed. An Open Breed Affairs Meeting will be held on Friday March 15th, to discuss Sixty Day (6o) motions from the AGM. Also to take suggestions for Judges for 2020 and 2021. The Club receives many requests from prospective puppy buyers looking for Breeders. Only those Breeders that are listed on the Club website and in Shepherd News are given to these buyers. We therefore encourage ALL breeders to list on the Club listings, this will ensure that the buying public will receive an ANKC registered pup that has been bred to minimize the risk of health and character issues. A breed survey was held on Sunday February 24th and we congratulate All of the owners and breeders of the successfully presented animals. Seven (7) animals were presented Six (6) stock coat females and One (1) Long Stock coat female. *Sheprose Royal Hope 'A' 'Z' *Tonaker Opela 'A' 'Z' *Tonaker Mollie 'A' 'Z' *Salpenz Little Miss Sparkle 'A' 'Z' *Kaperville Journey Way 'A' 'Z' *Belluna Allize 'A' 'Z' *Gilarisha Zsa Zsa 'A' 'Z' (LSC) B Owen Tonaker Kennels Tonaker Kennels F & H Griggons (Vic) L Hume S Mitchell R Archbold Christine Collins 2nd Vice President
