Advertising a dog or kennel is a perk of membership in the GSPCA. All dogs/kennels advertised must be fully owned by GSPCA members in good standing. For advertised litters, the dam must be fully owned by GSPCA members in good standing and health testing on the sire and dam must be included. An exception to the fully owned rule is made for deceased dogs but in that case the person placing the ad must have been an owner and be a current member in good standing.
Members are encouraged to run ads for their businesses especially if it relates to GSPs, events or to interest to our members. See Commercial and Classified rates.
Member Clubs are welcome to advertise their club, upcoming events, special awards, etc.
Corporations and Non – Members can run full, half or quarter page ads to advertise their businesses or services. We also offer a Classified section at a special annual rate. See Commercial and Classified rates.
Please email Bonnie directly for any special pricing not listed below.
