GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG CLUB NORTHERN TERRITORY

The GSD Club of the Northern Territory was founded in 1970 by a group of members including Riley Wing, and Wolf Meffert. They worked very hard for a number of years to have the NT Alsatian Act repealed. This Act required every GSD to be desexed. Later the NT Government gave the Club a concession. If a dog attended obedience training it could be exempt from the compulsory desexing rule. The club held its first specialty show in Darwin in 1977. Judge was Louis Donald who was assisted by steward Jurgen Neddermeyer. The Club continues to hold an annual speciality show every year.

GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG CLUB NEWCASTLE & NORTHERN REGION

The Newcastle & Northern Region GSD club is situated in the picturesque Hunter Valley and its members successfully participate at a National level in all breed related activities. A strong obedience focus is evident. The club consists of a committed team who actively support their members in obedience, breeding and participating in National council schemes.
