AKC can't add a variation UNLESS YTCA presents it to AKC and even then as seen in the quote I got off the AKC website that breed club was "turned down". The YTCA at this point is NOT going to allow Parti's in the show ring period. Those can talk till they are blue in the face and I can talk till I'm blue in the face it's just NOT gonna happen "anytime" in the near future. |
Wow!! Are you a physic, a fortune teller maybe? How in the world can you say it will never happen?! How do you know this?

Sorry I just have to comment on this. Do you own a cocker? Have you studied the breed? Shown it?
There is no evidence that supports the cocker got it's health problems simply because of color.
Secondly my family have been owned by cockers for many years, many generations. Not a single one was hard to potty train and all were healthy as can be. In fact I have yet to meet one that was hard to train.
The cocker I have now, Peppi, potty trained herself and is 12 years old today without any serious health problems.
