<< No more insulting than insinuating pet owners should not have a vote. >> I was not insinuating. I was stating a personal opinion. There are many societies in which I would not expect to have decision making privileges. I am a season ticket holder for the San Diego Opera season and I am vitally interested in it's doing, but do not feel that this gives me the right to make decisions for the opera organization. You might feel differently and think that you are qualified to do so, but I doubt that the Opera Guild would see it that way and allow you to make decisions for them. I am an associate member of several breed clubs but since I am not involved in showing or breeding the breed the club represents, I do not feel I should be making decisions concerning it. This should be done by those who will be affected by the decisions. I belong in order to receive newsletters and information about the doings of the organizations that represent the breeds in which I have an interest. This is what, in my opinion, you and other purely pet cavalier owners should be doing. You should not be making decisions about the arenas in which you do not participate. An associate membership would afford you the ability to follow the doings of the club and even volunteering when the occasion arose. I do not understand why anyone would be so determined to have a say about something in which they have just a minimal background and participation.
