Clarification on WDA members participating in USA events? - Page 14

The thing is both sides think they are right and neither side is interested in the others POV.

I agree with you on that. But one of those organizations has signed on to be a part of a federation of working dogs and they don't seem to be interested in the POV of the other federation members either. I hope this changes soon.

Actually regular VPG/IPO titles earned at DVG trials will be eligible to be put on AKC pedigrees for Rottweilers. There is a fee for the addition to a pedigree and if you want a certificate from AKC showing the title earned there is a fee for that also. They will not automatically go on pedigrees.

In order to register an American bred German Shepherd Dog in the USCA registry, the dog must be AKC registered,.  The USCA registry is dependent on the AKC.

Any changes to this mess expected in the near future?

None that I've heard. I plan to drop my membership from family to individual.

The solution for those with major issues with USCA is simple. Have the courage of your convictions and the integrity not to "pimp": don't enter USCA trials. Don't use USCA trials for judge apprenticeships and move on.

There are two things happening in January that will effect USCA and GSDCA/WDA score books and recognition
Judges will only be able to sign one scorebook at any trial. No more going to a WDA trial and having an SV judge sign a USCA/AWDF scorebook in addititon to the WDA scorebook.
In January Gunther Diegel will be in the US hosting a judges seminar for the
WDA. If they pass the test, Mike West, Wendall Nope, and Doug Alexander will
all be SVR judges. Which will mean the USCA has to accept the titles from these
judges.
I"m not sure what's going on with DVG. They're the only AWDF member that doesn't use the standard
AWDF scorebook and insist that its members have to use the German issued DVG scorebook.

Has anyone gotten a GSDCA-WDA scorebook certified by the USA Office

 Why is everyone so "Fired up" to have titles on AKC pedigree,s ? I despise the idea of the AKC it,s a sham of a dog organization which is based solely on profit ahead of all. It,s a necessary evil just to have there paper work. If I want to show any one my scores I have a book designed specifically for that purpose.   

If one doesn't,t like the rules in place in a organization then simply quit that said organization and join another build that organization to your liking. You can whine and bitch all you like but the solution is there to your quandary.
