Not only have I never said that, I have said that I suspect a higher
proportion of AKC-only SHOW breeders fully test than CKCSC breeders. I know
there are many other CKCSC breeders who agree with me.
Yes, I believe there is a TINY subgroup of pet owners who are attempting to
spread the word that AKC-only breeders do very little, if any, testing--but
then again in this country we have the freedom to say anything we want
whether or not there are any facts to back it up. I don't believe any of
you should give so much weight to what these few people are saying so as to
give it consideration or merit of any kind, let alone make a negative
blanket statement like that regarding CKCSC members. The vast majority of
us are now mostly on the same side, with just a miniscule few holdouts.
Let's try to keep it that way.
