The reason behind the stringent contract is so many show newbies have talked the talked and not walked the walk. All they wanted was a dog with a good pedigree to breed, to sell puppies. That's how many of wonderful pedigrees have ended up in BYB pedigrees. So, because of what has happened in the past the newcomers are now jumping through hoops.
