There is no difference in enhancing and showing a parti carrier that's all I'm saying and why pick someone apart for enhancing when the one showing a known parti carrier is doing the same thing? That's all I'm saying 
And I'm saying as long as the standard is written the way it's written I stand behind it and until it changes and that is what we should all strive for.

But it won't change unless someone pushes for change.
I can understand why it upsets YTCA members to have people knowingly showing the carriers. I agree with your arguments.
But since it is extremely difficult for parti breeders to get good breeding stock, since most show people won't sell to them, it is understandable why some parti breeders are showing the carriers in order to get good quality dogs to breed with.
not saying it is right, it's sort of like sneaking your bitch in heat into your neighbors back yard to be bred in order to produce a better dog. I'm just saying that I can understand why they are doing it.
And I myself might someday buy the offspring of one of those dogs, in rder to better my own dogs.
We hear all the time, you need to show your dogs, to make sure they are worthy of breeding, yet when someone does show their dog to make sure it is worthy of breeding they are bashed for doing it.
So I understand both sides of the issue. We're being told to show our dogs, then being told, but not in our show ring.
Can you at least try to understand why it is being done.
