I believe we talked about this problem when Colorado was selected for the national in 2007. We are suppose to boycott an all breed show and then attend a national GSD show there.? Hello . What is wrong with this picture????

It would not only be GSDs but also the breeds that they have banned. Unfortunely, especially in the up coming Denver, Colorado shows, the bullie breeds are well represent as well as it being a huge major in German Shepherds. I am beginning to feel that the majority of people showing don't care that in Colorado they are killing any kind of dog that looks like one of the bullie breeds. German Shepherds are next in Denver and yet we have a huge major there. I have a dog that needs his majors and I would not enter in Denver because of their BSL and where did that get me? We have German Shepherd people supporting a city that is killing dogs of a certain type. I am also faulting the Denver Clubs for holding the show there. How do we expect to win when a major dog show pulling majors every year will not stand up to the plate and tell Denver that they will pull their shows and money from the area. Sorry to say that Eukanuba is just making politically correct noises when it comes to pulling the shows in CA next January, they are not going to do it!! Money talks and sorry to say we show people, especially the major money people that send their dogs to these National Championships or want the major breed wins, don't care about BSL as long as it is not effecting them or their dogs. We are our own worst nightmare! Judy ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
