I've been reading through the site & it seems to be a very good one so far.
That AKC page is awesome!

I plan to pick up this one at the library today as too many pters talk of these sacred truths that I know are wrong...
"Dogs: A Startling New Understanding of Canine Origin and Behavior
This controversial book by Raymond Coppinger lays out a persuasive case for why purebred dogs are in serious trouble today.
In the past, I followed the traditional "party line" about purebred dogs. Here are Three Sacred Truths held by virtually all dog clubs and virtually all show dog breeders:


Purebreds must be preserved. The loss of any breed would be a tragedy.

Responsible breeders should try to improve their breed.

Breeding to "show standards" is the best way to preserve and improve breeds.
Then I read Ray Coppinger's book. And I was upset. Because Coppinger shot serious holes through the Three Sacred Truths. He challenged many other ideas, as well. I tossed the book aside. I brooded about it for awhile. And I decided to give it a second chance."
