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.
