It only took one video the make a huge impact on Crufts and the British registry. perhaps that is what it is going to take to wake up the AKC.

With the internet, it only takes seconds for a news story to get around the world. Someone needs to expose them.

If the breed clubs refused to participate in their shows, and the word got out as to why they refused. The AKC would have to do something to save themselves.

So it has to start with club members putting pressure on the clubs, and being willing to not show for a while.
