my response to staff is below and I am sending to you for PCs to know
what is going on as emails and texts are flying (Unfortunately tonight
BOB was also taken away from the Clumber Spaniel).

We should prepare a statement after all facts are in. However you can
assure and share with everyone that AKC will NEVER allow any such
practice to occur. Our Parent Clubs own their respective standard and
we support them 100 percent. Furthermore a Judges' decision is final
and we respect that as well. The situation is a very disappointing one
here from the point of view of breeders, exhibitors and judges and
fanciers from around the world. In summary while our PCs have a right
to be upset and concerned I will never allow this wrongful practice in
America. Never!!! Dennis

The Bulldog & Peke were eliminated from advancing beyond BOB because
of the mandatory vet inspection of these "targeted" breeds:
Basset Hound, Bloodhound, Bulldog, Chow Chow, Clumber Spaniel, Dogue
De Bordeaux, German Shepherd Dog, Mastiff, Neapolitan Mastiff,
Pekingese, Shar Pei, St Bernard, French Bulldog, Pug and Chinese
Crested.
See: http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/item/4199/23/5/3
1. Do we have any advice concerning information for these parent clubs
in the US regarding this practice?
2. Will AKC address this issue?
Respectfully,
