hereditary diseases using the then generally accepted and available techniques. "
So could someone please explain how this person maintains YTCA membership? |
I could be wrong but it appears that it a typo. It doesn't make sense to say that followed by the rest of the things noted. Lets not get carried away by words. She's not new. She's always had a good reputation. As I said just yesterday most reputable breeders don't have websites. Who has time? This is one good reason.
Health testing is not required for membership. People need to do their homework.
