Not that it matters, but I think Carmen got that changed. If there is to be a change in the standard, it is sent to the AKC first to make sure they will approve it. If they do, then it is sent to the membership for a vote. The thinking was to save the cost of mailing it to the membership if the AKC would not approve it. Evan L.
