That kind of comment is absolutely uncalled for. Suspicious of what??? I have been very clear about why I oppose this bill-- for reasons relating to dog breeding and for reasons relating to what constitutes good, enforceable legislation. You are of course entitled to disagree but please do it productively, not by questioning my motivation.
As an FYI, as well as my "day job," I am also a very serious dog owner/exhibitor AND breeder with multiple AKC breed champions, an AKC agility champion, and numerous other obedience and agility titles. I have bred a grand total of 5 litters in about 15 years of showing and competing with dogs.
I think I am actually in a pretty good position, as an Indiana citizen, a lawyer with many years of reading and interpreting the Indiana code, and many years in the dog fancy, to make whatever comments I darn well want to about this bill without someone becoming "suspicious" about why.
It is a good thing I deal with discourse on a daily basis or my panties would be in a wad
