The GSDA was formed over twenty years ago. In that time many great dogs and handlers have come to the post. In looking back we felt like the 20th Anniversary of the club was an appropriate time to start the Hall of Fame for the GSDA. The Hall of Fame is for dog/handler teams that most won the Open division and were, prior to winning and following winning still, in the top 10 in the Open division for 3-5 years. We already give awards to winners in each division and we have the “Longest Mile” award that addresses breeding, bloodlines, and longevity. That is not what this award is for. It is for those select teams that drew that attention of onlookers and fellow handlers when they went to the post at GSDA events and performed at a high level time after time.
