If two major political messes (our AKC rep and the AH business) in very recent times still allow us to be "one of the better breed clubs", I can see why the SPORT of show dogs is going down a hole, in spite of what Eukanuba is doing with their broadcasts of shows. And when there can be so many letters about double handling - a practice directly in violation of AKC rules - (yes, I show, and I don't double handle) I really wonder about all kinds of stuff - like the decrease in entries, the decrease in membership, etc. Elaine -------------- Original message -------------- From: Doris E <irrenhaus4@xxxxxxxxxxx> > tyke.8953@xxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > >IMO - The really relevant antitrust involved is that I no longer trust the > board to act in the best interests of our club and our breed.
