ATTENTION: Breeders

Club members in good standing can be on the official GPCA breeder referral list. The fee will be $100.00 per year. The fee is due on December 31 for the next year.

If you have a German Pinscher website with a link to the GPCA site, a link back to your website will be added to your listing on the GPCA breeder's list.

If you are interested in being added to the breeders list, you should contact Renee Phillips and she will send you a form requesting contact information. Those already on the list just need to send in their fee.

This form will remind all GPCA breeder/members that they previously agreed to adhere to the Code of Ethics. Also the GPCA strongly encourages breeders to microchip their dogs or require the dog buyer do so with the breeder as second contact person in the event the dog is lost. It will also state that the GPCA strongly encourages all breeders to state in their contracts that they take back their dogs for whatever reason for the life of the dog. There will be a disclaimer that will read: That while the GPCA encourages breeders to follow the above practices and guidelines, the GPCA and its officers make no guarantee or take any responsibility for the breeders presented on this list.
