And that is just the kind of "misinformation" I was referring to. IF people take their time to research ALL aspects of the type dog they are considering, then they will not be taken advantage of. But we all know there are people who make rash decisions, don't do their research first and will fall for any line they are fed. That is what I meant by "taken advantage" of.
Other than that, it's just difference of opinion and desire to preserve the breed, and concern over unknown health issues.

Umm...I'm not saying anything of the sort...I don't see where anyone else is either. (I really don't even understand this statment, to be quite honest.)
