1. I have a question on the litter registration form. Under "pedigree of litter", there are two spaces, one for "Sire/Dam..." and one for registration number of the sires/dams. What information goes on the Sire/Dam lines?
Answer: The animal name, if the sire and dam have one - such as Gus or LFF Sugar.
2. When should I renew my membership dues?
Answer: Membership payments are due at the first of the year annually.
3. Are there other GOS organizations for breeders in the United States.
Answer: No, not a this time. The US herd is so small, that a second registry or breeders organization has never been viable. In our US history with the GOS breed, there have been instances when a branch registry was initiated - but they have always been short lived due to the small size of the herd and due to the large organized effort involved in runnint a breed association or non-profit.
