Working Group Dogs
Dogs of the Working Group were bred to perform such jobs as guarding property, pulling sleds and performing water rescues. They have been invaluable assets to man throughout the ages. The Doberman Pinscher, Siberian Husky and Great Dane are included in this Group, to name just a few. Quick to learn, these intelligent, capable animals make solid companions. Their considerable dimensions and strength alone, however, make many working dogs unsuitable as pets for average families. And again, by virtue of their size alone, these dogs must be properly trained

IV. President’s Report
Today I have to thank our hard working Board and Committee Members for the completion of our second "B" match.
I have a topic to discuss and wish the issues involved will be accepted with proper acceptance as opposed to criticisms, as my only end is to License Central Florida Working Group.
First, I wish everyone to understand I am always open to suggestions, but if these suggestions do not apply to AKC rules, it causes a glitch in our advancing forward.
This will not take priority in our Club. I know a lot of negativity has been drifting down in the past years. However, as for me, the AKC is our so called mentor and I will always stay under their rules. I have worked hard to bring this Club from infancy to today. I addressed the Board and spoke about moving forward to "A" match status. Please understand I have been privy to all knowledge regarding this procedure, and do not profess to be the expert, but do stay on top of all AKC changes, so I know the rules as do many of our Board members. Our presentation is at this time in the process of completion and addressing all rules set forth by AKC. The AKC Board will take into consideration how far we have proceeded considering the economy and the distance for meeting places within central Florida. We have not accomplished as much as I felt we should, we did not have the match in March 2009. This is stated in our minutes, so if this requirement is not filled with all necessary compliance requested by the Event planning Board working with our presentation, then we will proceed to another B Match at West Volusia on 9/25/09. I know I am a stickler for the rules. I hope you can respect these values. I have been told by Mike Lisos that we have moved very fast and in fact faster than most to accomplish our goals.
I told Michael as a dancer one step follows another-no one hangs in suspension.
He laughed. Hopefully, we will move quickly. Thank you and if you have additional comments, please feel free to address them after the meeting.
