So, has anyone noticed it yet? I, of course, follow most of the news reports regarding PAWS or any other similar legislation on the State level. I have noticed more and more of them have the ARistsa's newest buzz word(s)..... FOR PROFIT. And of course this is thrown at ALL dog (and cat) people to make us feel sorry for the animals and hate the "evil" breeders. What is dispicable is WE ARE BUYING INTO IT AGAIN! Dog people swallowed the "puppy mill" title hook, line and sinker and are doing the same all over again. Unfortunately, AKC has swallowed it too. And just as an aside.... have you checked the "not-for-profit" AR groups bottom line recently???
