Again I stated that the half dozen or so YTCA members I know are not like that. They only breed for themselves and they are very very selective who their dogs go to. I think the larger the breeding kennel the more apt you are to find fault in some of the dogs. A show breeder can be producing very nice dogs then suddenly they may develop problems in their lines and they have to start over or go in another direction. When breeders outcross you don't know what you will get. There are no perfect lines and there are no perfect breeders. Again it comes down to ethics and you can't let a few rotten apples spoil the whole barrel.
Again it is not the club that is hypocritical of breeders that do not show, it is some of it's members. The first rule in the YTCA rule of conduct states:
Quote:
1) Assistance and encouragement shall be willingly offered by members to Show Novices and others needing advice and guidance. The welfare of the breed will be in their hands in the future.
