OK I now know what the CTCA is and also have been enlightened by everyones view of this article. There were many things mentioned that I did not know. Guess you learn something new everyday.

I grew up in a German decent house hold that was Luthren. I never visited Amish country although I have driven through it. My parents as growing up never said anything bad about the Amish but on the otherhand never said anything good. Just an avoided subject in the house hold growing up where I did. Just wasn't a top subject due to not living around them.
Thanks for all your enlightenments PTers.

What is the CTCA exactly? Until you posted this article, I've never heard of them.

They are a club promoting a specific dog breed. The club promotes this
breed and also acts as a registration site for the breed.

They seem to have a dislike for puppy millers who breed this type of dog
and sell them to pet stores. Most respected breeders of all dogs hate the
puppy mills for selling their specific breed. Can't say I blame them at all.
