American Kennel Club Resinding Pet Land Agreement
Published September 17, 2006
We, the undersigned, demand that the American Kennel Club rescind any and all agreements with Pet Land Stores as it pertains to the sale of puppies to be registered with the AKC.
We find that the AKC's own insistence of its members to be 'responsible breeders' and to adhere to a 'strict code of conduct' to be in direct conflict with this agreement with Pet Land Stores.
The continued sale of puppies though pet retailers such as Pet Land continues to do harm to the breed by promoting over population, contributing to the strain on the already over burdened rescue programs and fails many times to produce 'well bred' dogs suitable as pets or deserving of registration with the AKC.
Furthermore, we demand that the AKC refrain from entering any other agreements with any pet retailer that does not hold to the highest standard of the breeding and care of dogs as determined by the AKC's own standards.
As responsible and reputable breeders and owners, we try to uphold the standards set by the American Kennel Club. To endorse the sale of puppies at a pet retail store would lower those standards and diminish the goals we have achieved in the betterment of our dogs.
