The Dog Press Editorials Index

"the most revealing" coverage of the dog sport - a "compendium on the politics of dogs!"

February 17, 2010  The Dog Press attacked for promoting Animal Rights in Defining Puppy Mills. Editor defends AKC, cites position on AR, and challenges anonymous accuser… Thrasher refutes column "defining puppy mills", joining an organized attack on The Dog Press.

January 26, 2010  Hobby Breeders Told We Need Puppy Mills to fight legislation and fill demand.  Get the whole picture of AKC's quest for registrations, then define yourself!

November 18, 2009  Dog Clubs Make HEADlines The $1.8 million lawsuit against AKC and Toy Fox Terrier Club presidents make HEADlines. Corruption, politics, election ballots, cover-up revealed in TheDogPress Editorial.

October 20, 2009  AR Terrorists Lose Appeal A landmark Federal Court redefines animal rights activists as terrorists. Could it provide a basis for a similar suit against PETA and other cyber-terrorist groups?

September 16, 2009  AKC Board - 6 months later AKC isn’t the U.S. Calvary and Animal Rights Legislation isn’t a movie.  The AR fight is nearly over and the American Kennel Club isn’t coming to the rescue.

September 1, 2009  Cass Sunstein, animal rights advocate, Regulatory & Information Czar, has the power to implement the radical AR agenda. Sunstein and the Cyber Czar, the story no other dog publication will touch.

August 12, 2009  AKC Rule Against Alteration.  In the last edition, we asked you if the AKC rule against cosmetically changing a dog’s natural appearance should be enforced or rescinded.  Judges respond they are not the rule police, it is up to AKC reps, exhibitors, handlers.  Others say definitely keep the rule and enforce it!

July 1, 2009  Citizen's Rights made America free.  Paul Revere is gone but have you heard about TUBA and what happened to moonshine?  Can animal breeders organize to preserve our right to own hobby-bred purebreds?

June 1, 2009  Clarity & Correction on Docking, Cropping, NY bill, The Dog Press attacked for exposing AKC's failure to put its money where the mouth is.  Competition plays "gotcha" and we love it! 

May 26, 2009  Cropping, Docking Ban AKC and some Breed Clubs roll over, giving Animal activists a major victory. Think you don't have an affected breed?  Better read this!

April 22, 2009 AKC Governance The new AKC Board’s First 100 Days define the dog fancy’s future.  Will it spend $5 million to defeat Animal Rights or will it be “business” as usual?

April 1, 2009  April Fool! AKC registrations do not honor Co-own or Buyer-Seller contracts, only court decisions. The AKC Certificate of ownership is a worthless title as proven by these documented examples.

March 11, 2009 HSUS 2009 Offensive against dog breeders.  Your home can be invaded and searched WITHOUT A WARRANT, dogs and bank records seized, steep fines imposed, WITHOUT DUE PROCESS.

January 13, 2009  New Age Dog Shows compared to yesterday's shows.  Are shows still a hobby for the average family or breeder?  Are they even about dogs?  Can or should AKC turn the clock back?  What do you say?

November 12, 2008  OBAMA, McCAIN, HSUS, PETA, Animal Rights forces and campaign contribution obligations?  Editorial questions based on facts, research, and an illuminating article by Charlotte McGowan.

October 22, 2008  Dog Deformities & Animal Rights things are moving fast in England, deformed dogs, the RSPCA, the BBC's broadcast denigrating purebred dogs, is it all coming here?  You betcha!

October 8, 2008 - Mixed Breeds In AKC's Future? Mixed Breeds, Designer Dogs competing in AKC shows?  Many thought this was off the table - the new "Register Anything" service, the Petland deal, it is all connected?

October 1, 2008 - AKC Economics and the Wall Street meltdown.  Today's financial crisis and failures that brought down other mega-businesses can affect our 70$ million dollar dog registry.  Let's see that it doesn't!

September 17, 2008 - The HSUS-AKC Comparison explores our hypocrisy in supporting one and not the other.  Revealing financial figures ... AKC needs our support, and maybe just a little bit more...

August 30, 2008 - Readers Outraged Comments about registering un-registered dogs, AKC has "no comment" but then the fancy wasn't supposed to know just yet.  Shame on TheDogPress.

August 5, 2008 - AKC Registers Non-Registered Dogs reveals the unfathomable AKC Board Approval to register pet shop, puppy mill, and non-AKC registered dogs and dogs sold with Limited or "no papers" by responsible breeders. How? Why?

July 4, 2008 - Freedom Today is a hard look at where we (breeders) are today as compared to 2004/2005.  For starters, dog breeders fear local authorities more than they do terrorists and judges have freedom of speech issues.

June 2008 - Designer Dogs and Mixed Breeds in AKC speculates on  "registration" or "listing" of mongrels.  What does your club say?  Does your Delegate vote the club's wishes or rubber stamp the AKC rationale? 

April 15, 2008 - Animal Rights Activist Terrorists, a different perspective on how HSUS, PETA and ALF use Animals against us and why ELF and ALF are on the FBI's top domestic terrorist list!

July 25, 2007 - CA Anti-Pet Bill Pulled - AKC led the effort while cat people quietly and successfully worked a different angle.  CFA credits NAIA (founder Patti Strand is an AKC board member) and many other groups.

July 2007 - War Games  When you see it laid out chronologically, yep, it all makes sense.  Who are we fighting?  What is the battle plan?  You decide.

December 2006  Lesson In Learning for the New Year.  How we learn about dogs and what old-timers should learn about their own breeds!  A reminder on how and why breed standards "change".

October 24th - The Future Is Here No sense kidding ourselves.  In fact, it is downright dangerous to do so. A hard-hitting editorial that dares to address a painful truth that many are finally realizing.  Might as well face it....

September 18th - Sold Out By AKC Do we roll over again? We are a majority of the U.S. population so where is our outrage?  Grab your seat belt, you've been taken for a ride.

June 29, 2006  It's All About Freedom  As we celebrate Independence Day, think about government "by the people" (we give you the whole quote) and how clever PR can turn into a dud when there's a short fuse.  Dog people are "ignited." 

June 12, 2006 AA Legislation  Anti-American, anti-animal, plain and simple.  Know this - there is no progress without revolt.  We're not rid of Santorum but he saw defeat and tabled PAWS. 

June 1, 2006 Judges Judging Nature The burden is on Judges. They asked for the job but they have a responsibility to the domestic dog because genetic abnormalities can and will permeate the species.  Goodbye Best Friend!

May 9, 2006 Stop A Tank - We're outnumbered by puppy mills, legislators and humaniacs.  We need leadership, not betrayal.  Judges have always been our leaders but when they see the gun turret swing 180 degrees, will they fire back?

April 12, 2006 AKC The Corporation - Accountability is non-existent.  Clubs and Show breeders are invested "stockholders" but people who buy from pet shops don't show.  Would you buy stock in this company? 

March 14, 2006 NAIS - Tying The Knot between AKC, USDA, Digital Angel, PAWS, Santorum, etc.  A primer on microchip, GPS tracking, new legislation, and why PAWS was only a first step in getting you accustomed to ....

Feb 7, 2006 New Group Judge Approval Criteria favors handlers over breeders?  I/We went right to the top, AKC Director Of Judging Operations.  Part Two is a second exclusive interview with Mr. Peter Gaeta.

Dec. 28, 2005 The Exemption does not apply to you, the show breeder.  Nothing has changed except now you canl be inspected by AKC!!!!  

Oct 25, 2005 Wrong Horse What a ride!  AKC, HSUS, Santorum - thought they had a sure winner but that mount had a mortal fear of dog and cat owners. 

Sept. 30, 2005 The Medusa Factor  A plea for warrior leaders, a game plan to lop off the snakes, take back dog clubs, and in so doing, defeat PAWS.

Aug. 3, 2005  Paws and Laws  PETA and HSUS take in millions ... It's a matter of PR and AKC has failed miserably.  Money trail, and IRS, stuff to think about.

July 26, 2005  PAWS For Thought AKC bedding down with the HSUS & DDAL? Who goes over your books?  To whom do you report? 

July 1, 2005  The Sound Of Freedom There's enough party line and sour grapes out there to start a whinery but TDP  reports news as we see it.

May 30, 2005  Where Are Our Leaders?  The FBI ranks ELF and ALF as  #1 domestic terrorist threat.  We're losing the war right here, on the home front. 

Feb. 25, 2005 AKC Mission - Elections  AKC and Breeder disregard for stud book integrity , Mission #1 is seriously jeopardized and ignored.

Feb. 25, 2005:  Dietary Supplements?  If you take supplements or use them for your dogs, you better get a cuppa coffee and settle in for a short read.

Jan 2005  FDA's Fancy Fraud gives a whole new look at Adverse Reactions, FDA, and the REAL drug war.

Oct. 2002 HVBC, MCKC, BOY More from the High Volume Breeders Committee to give us thought.  And encouragement.

Sept. 2002 Two Against One significantly increases the odds. Hold that thought, we’ll be back to it. Another one says “know thine enemy.” Now let’s connect the dots. It has taken me a while but I finally got it.

Sept. 2002  re-listed by request,  McDaniels - Martin Cases AKC's failure to "accept jurisdiction" in one of the most shocking animal abuse stories to hit recent news media as compared to the Martin case suspension and fine.

Jan. 2002  Meeting Cancelled (9-11) between Andrew Hunte, Pres. of Hunte Corp. & Al Cheaure, Pres. of AKC, The World's Biggest Dog Registry To Negotiate With World's Biggest Puppy Mill
