Here is my new vision for breeding programs:
Each breed club acts as a "rating agency" for breeding dogs. A breeder pays a fee to have their dog assessed for adherence to breed standard. The dog's health and temperment are ALSO verified, maybe yearly. The YTCA makes every dog's scores are available online for potential buyers to check out.
Dogs that are exceptionally close to breed standard can be shown competitively, and presumably have offspring that would sell for higher prices.
There. Problem solved!
