There are so many things that are done because it has always been done that way. And until there are enough voices it will not change.
I think the AKC has its feet firmly planted on both sides of the fence. To be that large it has to be in some senses. I may not agree with them being in bed with the puppy mills, I do agree with them lobbying in my behalf to protect every single ethical hobby breeder and even the show breeders. But to do that they will also be protecting all the BYB and puppy mills until new rules are written.
When we ask for more humans to police the police, then someone to police them it starts to become a tangled web to weave. Eventually there is breakdown and corruption (as today shows). When people can come on here that show and say they can show a "dead cat" and champion it, what is that telling us?? It tells me volumes as it should to every one of you. Especially ones that sit as members of the mother club. |
Again words have been changed. What has been said, is that handlers can finish a dead cat, as professional handling is their business. No member has ever said that "we" can finish a dead cat
