Hi all,

I was appalled to learn that at our club's recent Board Meeting, our =20
Parent Club granted membership to an applicant who is one of  the =20
biggest puppy mill operators in the country. Yes, he has a spotless =20
fancy facility to show off to whoever needs to be impressed--but that =20=

is the bright side of the dark side of the inhumane puppy mill =20
factory farming business that breeds and raises the puppies to sell =20
to Pet Land and other pet shops. For decades I have for the most part =20=

felt proud of our club, and proud that it has had a reputation as one =20=

of the AKC's best Parent clubs. We may have just taken a big step =20
backward, which maybe can be addressed  by reviewing both our =20
Breeders Code and Membership application to see if they can be =20
strengthened and/or improved. Sadly, the answer to "why" is in my =20
subject line. =96Gail Sprock
