If there is this much breaking of the rules, we need to find a new system. I was told that no one complained in the other two instances, so the AKC didn't do anything. It is not being caught that bothers me, it is that some people are violating the rules, and nothing is being done. I don't want to be the police for our breed, but we do need to ask ourselves why the win is more important to us than our own personal morality? It is a personal question, and each person must answer for themselves. Yes, that's another question that we will probably not get an answer to either, but it will be right there with the regular practices this year. How does it go, ask a question and you will get an answer......right... Why are the wins more important that the persons morality? Good questions Evan.
