D i g i t a l p h o t o s : S e n d a t o r i g i n a l s i ze i f p o s sibl e. Phot os wi t h d i m e n s i o n s o f o n l y 1 - 2 i n c h e s wi l l n o t r ep ro duc e we l l . Guidelines: 1. UBSDA rescue seeks to assist in rescue of purebred Belgian Shepherd Dogs of all varieties. We cannot use the club's funds to help mixed breed dogs, although very often individuals within the clubs will go out of their way to network for such dogs or help privately. 2. UBSDA rescue can assist with paying pull fees and some transport costs if needed as dogs are moved from a pound/shelter. We cannot be responsible for dogs from known breeders except in very rare cases -- we don't do rehomes; again, however, many individuals may individually be willing to network for such dogs privately. 3. UBSDA rescue is unique in that we consider all varieties equally. Of course individual foster homes and volunteers may have variety preferences because of experience or contacts and these are respected. AKC Belgian rescue groups are very specific about which variety they can assist but they are also larger so are the organizations of final disposition in most cases. UBSDA does not officially foster or adopt dogs. 4. UBSDA's budget for rescue is extremely limited when considering our relative number of members and the fact that it must extend to cover all 4 varieties. Because of this we will work closely with other rescues to make the best use of our money and volunteers. Funds are available through private requests for special medical costs, pull fees and transport assistance. 5. The greatest need cited by all rescuers helping Belgian shepherd dogs of all varieties now is for hands on assistance through transport, identification, short or long term fostering, referrals, education and networking. Please contact the appropriate variety contact for the dogs you will work with or contact me for more information on these or to be put to work. Volunteering to help does not obligate you to be "on call". The more volunteers who are available and trained and in contact with each other the more moral support we all will have and the more quickly we will be able to save dogs in need. Scanning photos: Photos should be scanned at 300 dpi or higher, and at 100% of size (in inches) or as close as possible. Scanned photos may be supplied by e-mail or disk. When emailing photos send in color. There will be no refunds for ads with poor image quality caused by submission of scanned photos. For best reproduction quality, submit original glossy photos CRITIQUE AND NEW TITLE PHOTOS For dogs rated Excellent at any UKC show, or earning a UKC or other performance title. Photo will be printed with or near appropriate critique or performance results report. Crop photo to dog. Free Critique Photo: One photo of excellent rated dogs will be published free of charge for UBSDA members with the critiques for events held in the same weekend/cluster of shows. List date and show. PHOTO RETURN For photo return you must include a correctly sized self-addressed stamped envelope. For show photos you can elect to have it returned in the original show photo container but you must include an appropriate number of stamps and a new mailing label. Do not send cash for postage. DEADLINES Materials and advertisements must be received by the 15th day of the following months: January, March, May, July, September, November. No exceptions will be made. 4 Minutes of the UBSDA Board Financial Report UBSDA Board Meeting March 19, 2015 via Teleconference 2015 UBSDA Profit and Loss Standard February 28 through March 31, 2015 Members Present: President – Laura Patton; VP – Lisa Kingsley; Recording Secretary – Bonnie Kreider; Corresponding Secretary – Kim Gauchet; Directors –Susan Geers-Meiners Meeting Called to order: 7:04 PM Feb 28 - Mar 31, … President’s Message: None Ordinary Income/Expe...

The remainder of dogs in a class are shown in the order of the judge's books (usually by armband number, but not always). Therefore, the printed order of critiques for dogs that do not place in the class has no bearing on the relative merits of the dogs. Note to judges, stewards, and show secretaries: Please give the original critique to the handler, and send the second page (first copy) of the critiques to the Critiques Editor, no matter whether the color of the copy is pink or yellow. The second copy goes to the judge. That will make it easier for us to reproduce the handwritten critiques accurately in the Beacon.
