AKC has never done anything to prove that, I mean just look at how ethical this promotion is from a few years ago:
Yes, you reister 10 litters you get the 11th for $1, come on now! They're practically giving away registrations, this proves it's not about the money! Just whelp 10 litters after October 1, 2009 and before the program ended on june 30th, 2010 then you're all set!
.. and tis, a FREE Health Clinic!
AKC and the Hunte Corporation aren't doing this for money either! Hunt openly claims that they spend over $160,000 modifying "trucks and trailers" for dog transportation! He also had a
special incinerator engineered for his facility!
It's not about the money!
(note: there is a little bit of sarcasm in this post).
The issue is that the larger they get, the greedier they get. Doesn't FCI reciprocate with AKC so if a dog is AKC registered it can get FCI registered? That's VERY scary. We could have registered our collie as a terveurn - maybe we'll register our cat next.
Its up to the breed clubs to teach the public about the dogs and tresponsible breeding, training, and ownership.
