<< It's my humble opinion (and that of others) that since we pet owners are the only ones not motivated by greed or ego WE are the ones who are TRULY interested in the welfare of the breed. >> ****************************************************************************** ************************ You know, that's a pretty insulting thing to say about the people who made it possible for you to have you pet or pets! They are the ones who have tested, studied pedigrees, shown to compare their dogs to others', sat for hours by the whelping box, carefully reared and inoculated their puppies and at times traveled many miles to breed to the dog whose genes would best combine with their bitch. I think that these are the people who have earned the right to make decisions for the breed and instead of denigrating them as greedy or ego driven, pet folk should be very grateful that there are people out there that care enough to provide you with a lovely pet.
