JMO but I believe it was a foollish mistake on the part of the YTCA to ignore the color all these years, and to leave it to the hands of unscrupulous people. |
It's not the job of the YTCA to "control" various breeders and what they decide to breed, it the job to preserve and protect the standard. Why should they embrace something that they think is a flaw? There will always be those who want to breed what they see as unique or different, but this misses the whole point of purebred breeding.
