Keep in mind, these clubs are pushing for AKC recognition, and some will do anything to be "the first.". Therefore, most of the claims they make are questionable. They seem to care more about the AKC badge of honor then the health and well-being of the dogs. |
What nefarious lies, an example? Could it be that until the line is "pure" and an established breed its irrelevant? Isn't that how the Yorkshire Terrier breed started?
I'm trying to understand the relevancy of the breed standard and the "AKC badge"....what does the AKC need for proof to be able to recognize a breed?
