I posted here several times about Danielle Weitz and the overreaching draconian penalty that the city of Franklin Lakes, NJ assessed on her and her GSD breeding. Danielle and her attorney are thrilled, as are all of us! For those of us who have donated, spread the word, and encouraged her to stick with it, this decision was well worth it. WE now know that every breeder that posts on the AKC site, or any site, that they have a pup for sale is vulnerable to a similar attack. But weve always know that anyway, no?
