GSDCA Breed Information - Current Edition of the Quarterly National Review Magazine

GSDCA QUARTERLY NATIONAL REVIEW MAGAZINE
 

This magazine was first published in 1963 to 1968 as The Australian German Shepherd Dog Review. It was reintroduced during 1974 in a different format as The German Shepherd Dog Review and was to take on the title of The German Shepherd Dog National Review on its second publication in 1976. The current title, German Shepherd Dog  Quarterly National Review was adopted when regular publication of the magazine in the present format, four times per year coinciding with the seasons, began in July 1986.

 

Golden Jubilee Edition - “A Condensed History of the German Shepherd Dog in Australia” :

Progress Report No 1

Update and progress report on the proposed Golden Jubilee Edition, an update and revision of the 1990 publication, “A Condensed History of the German Shepherd Dog in Australia”

The Golden Jubilee Edition is due to be published late 2010, to celebrate the GSDCA’s 50th birthday and the ambitious project is proceeding on schedule. The emphasis of the publication will be on the Council’s first 50 years, but will also include reprinting approximately sixty to seventy (60 -70%) of the original publication.

To assist the financing of the publication, a National Raffle is planned for March 2009 to June 2009, with the raffle being drawn at the National Show in Queensland, on June 12, 13 & 14, 2009. All clubs have promised to fully support this fundraising effort with their members, who in last year’s survey in the Quarterly National Review, indicated their overwhelming support. All required regulations have been met and permits have been obtained.

Terrific efforts by President, Bruce Knight and Sharon Thorp (President GSDCQ) have secured full sponsorship for the raffle. Well done !

The excellent prizes offered are:

1st Prize – Air travel and accommodation to the value of $6,000 (if travel to the Sieger Show 2 VIP passes to the show are included).
2nd Prize – Air travel within Australia to the value of $1,000.
3rd Prize – Liberty Hair Dryer valued at $480.
4th Prize – 1 limited edition leather bound copy of the Golden Jubilee Edition “A Condensed History of the German Shepherd Dog in Australia”, valued at $150.

Book Buyer’s Draw – Every person who buys a book of 5 tickets will be entitled to entry into a separate draw to win one (1) limited edition leather bound copy of the Golden Jubilee Edition “A Condensed History of the German Shepherd Dog in Australia”

Ticket Sellers Prize – The winning ticket seller will be entitled to entry into a separate draw to win one (1) limited edition leather bound copy of the Golden Jubilee Edition “A Condensed History of the German Shepherd Dog in Australia”

Discussions and negotiations with printers are currently proceeding and we are hopeful of a very favourable result in terms of cost, in the not too distant future. When the printing situation is finalized, we will then be in a position to advise of the purchase price of additional soft cover copies, as well as the planned limited edition deluxe leather bound edition.

In this regard, it is expected that Order Forms will be initially published in the June or September 2009 Quarterly National Review for club members to order additional copies.

All clubs have been requested to provide written material and photographs of personalities, dogs and events unique to their club, by December 31, 2008. Similarly, a number of people have been requested to write articles with an initial draft to be provided by December 31, 2008.

During 2009 I will be reviewing and refining these articles and assembling the book. So, you can see a huge task awaits the Editorial team !

Best Wishes

A Typical Article from one of our Past Editions of the Quarterly National Review Magazine :

Past Edition - December 2001
Article - Crisis Response Dog - Uno the Hero
 

The December 2001 edition of our National magazine "The GSD Quarterly National Review" carried the brilliant story of Uno the German Shepherd Dog.  Uno was involved with helping out after the tragedy of New York, September 11, 2001.  To recognise the significance of his work and contribution to the community, Uno was nominated for a 'Dog of the Year' award from the AKC, USA.

After these events, the GSDC of Victoria made contact with Uno's owner Pat and she gave them this update :

"Uno was the grand Marshall in a parade which we discovered that he is quite the 'ham'; he loved the float, the crowds of people.  He waved at the crowds and smiled the whole time!  He has been nominated as 'Dog of the Year' for the American Kennel Club ACE Awards.  We feel very honoured by this award nomination.  Do not know as of yet when the winner will be announced, but the award will be given on October 30."
