The GSDCQ (Inc) is affiliated
with and abides by the Constitution for
Incorporated clubs provided by the Canine
Control Council of Qld. In order to
function, conduct shows and events the GSDCQ
Inc. follow this Constitution. We are also
affiliated with the German Shepherd Dog
Council of Australia. The GSDCQ Inc.
recommends its members to become
“Responsible Dog Owners “and to be
pro-active in the promotion of such ideas.
The GSDCQ Inc. also promotes the ideas and
aims of the GSDCA in response to the
Dangerous Dog Act, whereby the German
Shepherd breed is discriminated against
purely on the basis of its name. The GSDCQ
Inc. aims to promote ‘punish the deed, not
the breed ‘in response to the Dangerous Dog
Act.
The German Shepherd Dog Club
of Queensland Inc. (GSDCQ Inc.) was
established in 1957 by a group of
enthusiasts who wished to promote the
breeding, showing, trialing and ownership of
the purebred registered German Shepherd dog.
Good fellowship and sportsmanship amongst
members and those participating in or
attending exhibitions/breed
surveys/information seminars is encouraged
by the GSDCQ Inc.
Members of the club live in
all areas of the State and the Club
Executive and Committee recognize member’s
breed contribution in regional areas.
Country member’s participation in GSD
National Council schemes is acknowledged and
appreciated. Local members attendance at
Trials and shows is sometimes the only way
the general public can view the true German
Shepherd Dog and this continues to be
helpful in promoting a positive image to the
rural community. We can help new members
contact groups in their area by contacting
the
Secretary . If you live in Mackay our
