Honestly, Jencar, I don't know if I could even if she had. I would always wonder if she only did it in order to appease public opinion. Kind of like the way Michael Vick suddenly campaigning for animal rights doesn't pass "the smell test". I know the saying is "once you know better, you do better." But it's not as if she didn't know that what she was doing was less than ethical. The YTCA stance on the matter is very clear. I don't remember seeing an exemption clause that made it ok as long as the dogs weren't Yorkies or you weren't the official breeder. JMO.
