Am curious about much the same thing Stormy. And by the way, you ARE doing a great job Stormy keeping on top of it seems everything......not easy to do. I just finished taking 2 good surveys the Australian Shepherd Club of America are doing (for people from any breed) to gather some fighting facts. Legislation overall seems to generate little interest from most, and it is the singularly largest threat to your "dog world" that exists............ Molly In a message dated 5/25/2012 10:38:02 P.M.

It is very curious, and I'm at a loss to figure out what's happening. Somebody help me? I did post all of the relevant alerts, my own little bit, etc., so it isn't as if the message didn't go out. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2011.
