I received a call from the AKC yesterday. I thought oh goodie, information
on my application.
Nope, it was a survey. They asked me 5 questions --- ALL pertaining to the
following:
Would I be in favor of the AKC starting a service that allows MIXED BREED
DOGS to be "registered". For mixed breed dogs to be eligible for
competition in AKC events. I don't know about the rest of you, but I
thought the whole point of all KENNEL CLUBS was to promote the breeding and
perfection of the PUREBRED DOG.
I sure hope that someone at the National takes Carmen by the hand and tells
him he better get that organization under control!
I mean for pete's sake! First this Petland thing, then this Hunte thing and
now "mixed breed" dogs?
From the AKC Website:
