One thing that is different is Parti breeders are up front and saying they plan to show the carriers. And if the dog meet the standard then it should be allowed to be shown.
Parti breeders did NOT put the gene in the dogs, they are just letting it express natural. |
Ethics is still ethics. you are knowingly showing a dog that has or carries a dq fault. The purpose of showing is to have breeding stock evaluated to the stand of the breed. Knowing the dogs can and will be used to produce color faults is, IMO, un-ethical breeding.
