That is true, Sally, but when you pay for the picture, you also pay for the right to use it in advertising...and this guy has paid no one...if you want to let him use it, you can, and he may put it on his site at that time...otherwise, he's SOL. Believe me, we've been thru this with Cavaliers...and with the woman who had the other website that said American bred GSDs were useless, had no character, etc. This guy is advocating dogs that do not comply with the Standard, and while it is his right to do that, he is a parent club member and therefore, not behaving as a parent club member should...I believe we are all SUPPOSED to breed to the Standard............... that's just for starters......... I think you will find that he is full of hot air and will have to take the pictures down. Peggy Sally wrote: >Peggy > I do not own the rights to the picture - the photographer does.
