Good question.  However, one thing that has struck me with GPCA membership, 
is that you are expected to uphold the Code of Ethics.  I know one woman in 
particular that would not be able to uphold any Code of Ethics when it comes 
to her breeding and selling practices of Pyrs.  While club membership may be 
a way to educate and hopefully change some of the ways people think about 
their dogs and what they're doing with them and to them, I don't think it has 
much effect on such people.  I know I certainly wouldn't be the one to 
recommend this woman as a member.
