As far as testing, YTCA is now implementing a program to have the proper testing conducted on breeding animals.
I did wonder who was behind the show. But when Nightline scheduled the interview with AKC that wasn't PETA - I just think they would have been better off sharing their side. Actually in watch in the BBC program, I was impressed that the Kennel Club gave these people so much time.

I am disgusted to hear about what happened at Westminster - what was the point of the KKK garb?

I am so glad to hear that YTCA is taking some steps - good for them. I really appreciate you taking time to comment.

When I posted this last night it was in a hurry to notify people to turn on the show - I don't think dog shows are a bad thing and was using the words Nightline was using to promo their segment. I was really hoping some show breeders would comment on the issues brought up here.

After watching & reading some of this, I see how little I know about other breeds or their show standards. Some of this is so sad.
