ABOUT THE GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG CLUB OF ESSEX
Need to know more about and think long and hard before taking on the responsibility of owning a dog.!!
The German Shepherd Dog Club of Essex was registered with the Kennel Club in 1951 and it is doubtful if any of the Founder Members are still around. They must have been a tough lot though, as old records show a letter from the then Chairman to the committee chastising them for fighting outside the White Hart Public House in Hornchurch. Evidently they had held a Committee meeting in the Pub and an argument about Obedience had occurred. After closing time the argument continued on the pavement outside and soon turned to fisticuffs. Today’s Committee members are much more circumspect.
Our current Officers and Committee Members are :
- President: Tom Syers
- Vice-President and Hon.Sec: Sheila Rankin
- Chairman: Doreen Harris
- Treasurer: Sue Worley
- Committee: Jeanette Bourne, Barbara Forrester, AnnNixon, Phil McCarthy, Russell Short.
