PLEASE NOTE:
Your membership in the GSDCA does not take effect immediately, the process takes 60-90 days. Your name will appear as an applicant in the members-only section of our website. This allows current members to comment. Approximately thirty days after your name is published, if no negative responses are received, the membership process will be complete and you will receive a membership number and your website login info. You will not have access to the Members Only section until this process is complete.
You must include the name and address of two current GSDCA members as your endorsers. Please make sure they are valid members, otherwise your application will be rejected and your ability to reapply may incur a delay. If you do not have endorsers, email our membership chair at membership@gsdca.org before filling out the application
