Apparantly she has no compunctions about accepting a great deal of money from the very people she disdains. Sorry, I am totally disgusted with what I read on her site. I had never read her text before; her text, and indeed her very illustrations are used to denigrate our dogs. I think the membership should be apprised of who suggested this lady. Oy!

This is a clear conflict. At least have the decency BEFORE you start, to remove the nasty opinion from one's site before you attempt to do the drawings and work on the Standard for the VERY BREED you are bashing. I am also tired of the refusal by some to disseminate any real , tangible info on the drawings, other than "they are improving" . We have others that support it in one breath, and in another say they had nothing to do with it....gimme a break.
