It is and has been my fervent hope that breeders will stop hiding and start
fighting. If selling the occasional litter out of your house is classified as
a business, the same as a car repair business, instead of a business like a
Mary Kay Home business, all breeders are in trouble. If getting a breeders
license, (as in L.A.) opens your house to unannounced inspections, (as in L.A.)
and breeders havent fought it tooth and nail, what is the next step?
Lately it seems that there is a growing trend for an envious exhibitor to make
anonymous phone call (Katie Dokken, Danielle Weitz and way too many lately).
More jurisdictions (and HSUS) encouraging the anonymous calls, and an innocent
person becomes the subject of constant inspections, harassing calls and more.
We are in a different world, and only we have the power to change it. We are
not powerless, but many find the day too busy or too tired at night or not
really interested and more rights are taken away.
