Hi All; I have read these posts with interest. Since not everyone who is a member sign the Breeders Code, I think it is much more important that the Club has a Code Of Ethics that anyone who is a member or wishes to become a member must sign. Must Parent Clubs have one in order to become a member and many All Breed Clubs also have one. My AB Club Newton Kennel Club made this part of our membership application over one year ago, as we felt it was necessary in order to be able to maintain the integrity of our Club and our members had no problem signing it in order to remain members in good standing.
