The following statement from two highly respected Cavalier owners and exhibitors, which is published in the new ROYAL SPANIEL, first quarter, 2002, should not be taken lightly. This is NOT for the good of the breed, but would hurt even more the already small gene pool. Why was this new amendment made? What is the reasoning behind it?
Marilyn Mayfield OPEN LETTER TO: CKCSC. USA RE: MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL Annual membership renewal time is upon us; after much soul searching, we have made the decision to not renew our CKCSC,USA and COTW memberships. We can no longer support a registry that has as the amended Code of Ethics: "II.A.3 'If I decide to breed a litter, I will breed only Cavaliers registered with or eligible for registration with the CKCSC, USA.' " To restrict ethical breeding practices that promote happy, healthy Cavaliers for the sake of a registry is to us, unethical. To continue to stand by such policy with our membership dollar is hypocritical.
