The AKC is a fine organization and "breeding" is a very small part of what they are about. i used to think differently, but went to their site and saw all the cool stuff, and if you ask me breeding responsibly is great b/c agree with it or not, they will likely have good homes.

That's rich that the AKC, which promotes breeding and overpopulation, is going to talk about "Responsible dog ownership". Ha!

"responsible dog ownership"

I wish some people would be more responsible for their dogs and cats. I am afraid of some dogs they let walk the neighborhood around here. Really no excuse for it here as everyone has over an acre of land...have a pet fence in your backyard rather then let the dog out the door to do it's business, scare neighbors, chase cars, etc. You know these are the first people to get ticked when their animal gets hit or hurt.
