b4 everyone jumps, just a question

if voting for cap on scratch dogs was only to be sent to scratch racers then what about other proposals, are they only to be sent out to people that it concerns , silly really, its for all members to vote, and NO you can NOT blame the comitttee as they can only put forward the proposals that are sent in, it is upto the individual which way they vote

Sorry Deb but is not decided prior to the proposal forms / AGM ... weather the new proposals or workable or not ...who decided on it ?

Personally i am not bothered ...had i been i would of sent my form back in and gone to the AGM

I did propose a couple of new proposals but some where found not workable so never got on the proposal forms

Don't think many k9 users give much creditability to new users posts , when the new user cannot come on and let others know who they are

It cannot be that long ago they raced if they are aware that some breeders of big dogs were warned to down size there breeding programs 4 or 5 years ago

Don't know why some people feel they can not have a opinions on k9 without hiding behind anom names

i was at both meetings reps and agm and at the reps meeting voted that the cap of 55lb should not go out as a proposal i dont feel its workable the only way to bring the breeding weight if needed down is stop breeding greyhound back to 1/2 or 3/4 greyhound and that was already addressed with another proposal,

the proposal to cap at 55lb as everyone voted today will only effect pups that are not reg with the bwra as off the start of this years registration any pup already on the bwra books will stay on and run if they go above 55lb, i also ask if members who reg a pup at the start of this year and that dog then makes 56lb and above and find they cant race in none ped whippet racing (w00t) sorry i mean just the bwra none ped whippet racing lol, will that member get there money back it was after some banter agreed they will,

as far as i can see this cap will only arm the bwra membership its mad :wacko: , the two member who put this proposal forward are both on the top table of the nnwrf who will keep no limit and 1 member who runs the irg who will also keep no limit racing so the only organization that will suffer with a full in membership will be the bwra , well done the 2 members not a bad days work, and yes i know it was the members who voted it in (w00t) (w00t)

can some one explain the % breeding thing ... :thumbsup:
As I understand it Dee you could put a "7/8" grey to a "7/8" grey(Gen1) and then back to a "7/8" grey(Gen2) and then back to a "full" grey.

"7/8" grey x "full" grey = NO

("7/8" grey x "7/8" grey) x "full" grey = NO

("7/8" grey x "7/8" grey) x "7/8" grey) x "full" grey = YES

Though I was awaiting the outcome of this vote as in my opinion this would put a "breeding cap" in place in order to attempt to bring the size down, fair enough but then to put a "weight cap" in place at the same time seemed a bit far fetched. I feel there should have been one proposal or the other brough in for voting but not both, in essence penalising those breeding in the "correct" manner but still get a dog going over the "weight cap".

It's overall a get lucky or tough sh*t scenario IMO but as has been stated before it's not up to the committee or individual members but the membership as a whole, how are we to know the BWRA did not get a large number of proposals put forward along the same lines and the sheer number of proposals induced the committee into putting it to a membership vote as the number of proposals would represent a large proportion of the membership.

Anyway enough, I'm supposed to be prepping not talking !!! :luck: :luck: 5 hours to go !!!
