> First of all, you might want to stop this arrogant twaddle that
> you've done the dog fancy a favor. You exemplify the concept of "me
> and my two friends know what's best for dogs." It's codswallop.
>
> Second, this really isn't the place for your self-serving political
> campaigns.
>
> However, since you insist.....most of the discussion I have seen
> is in the vein of "AKC showed it didn't know how to interpret the
> first version of the bill. We'll withold our comments until we see
> the actual language of the bill."
>
> I am curious as to your thinking on why the commercial breeders,
> after spending thousands to comply with USDA engineered standards,
> will allow their competitors, however small, to escape the rigors of
> the USDA standards and instead be controlled by performance standards
> of AKC? For that matter, why would HSUS allow such a development?
>
> There was nothing in your original post that suggested that there
> would be two classes of breeders by statute and therefore why
> would there be effectively two wholly different inspection programs.
>
> By and large, the dog fancy is sufficiently distrustful of your
> actions to date that many just don't put much stock in anything you
> write. We want to see the the real thing.
