Gerri, I have followed the club code of ethics to the letter. However, Do you honestly think that if someone in the old club doesn't agree with the code of ethics, they should resign from the old club rather than voice an opinion? If so....perhaps you should read the bulletin that contained the long list of breeders here in the US that do not agree with that particular section of the code of ethics. My name was on it. Do you feel that all of us should resign from the old club rather than sign petitions, express an opinion and hope for an opportunity to vote on the issue?? Also, with all due respect, Annette, I am sorry that this important US issue is boring to you, but it is of great interest to many of us here in the US. We are concerned about the future of the breed that we love. Maybe the Delete button was invented to save you from boredom. I do hear Kim's concerns, however, and I won't continue my part of the discussion. Myra
