I look at it differently....if there's a way to co-opt some of the owners of mixed breed dogs into our way of thinking (that breeders are not the enemy, irresponsible pet ownership - - among other things - - is)...and if that way includes inviting owners of mixed breed dogs to attend AKC events, maybe there will be few enemies of purebred dogs and breeders...and perhaps some of them will want to join us. And - - if their entry and registration fees increase the AKC's budget to fight anti-breeder and purebred legislation and sentiment, that would be great too. > Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2010 14:50:00 -0700 > From: irrenhaus4@xxxxxxxxxxx > To: showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Mixed breeds > > Is anyone surprised that the AKC will now accept mixed breeds in > performance events?
