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

President’s Report:

First order of business as per our Constitution & By-Laws-the December meeting was open for nominations to the slate of Officers and Board for 2010. At this time no additional nominations were presented. I as President cast one vote for the nominating committee slate. The chair proceeds to announce for or declare the vote and the resolution is adopted. Mel Holloman and Melissa Bennett are hereby selected and seated to the Board for the term of three years. I need a motion to accept. Welcome to the 2010 Board (As adapted by Roberts Rules of Order.)

As we move forward towards our final hurdle our A Match will be June 18th I believe, at Orlando. Linda Rowell invited us back to complete our approval. From that point on we need to look at majors and large entries which was our original commitment. We have been solicited by many clubs for our first official show. If we pull we may follow Conn River Valley with first back to backs.

I personally wish to send laurels to my Officers, Board and members for a great job bringing CFWGA to this timely reward.
