To all truly exceptional dog breeders, who care as much (if not more) about their dogs' physical and mental
health as they do about their dogs' coat color and conformation.

To all knowledgeable veterinarians, who understand the crucially important role of early socialization and
training in preventing predictable behavior and temperament problems.

To all caring and responsible puppy owners, who do their very best to choose, raise, and train their puppies to
be good-natured and well-mannered companions.

And to all overworked pet dog trainers, shelter staff and volunteers, and animal rescue organizations, who try
their best to solve the many problems created by other dog breeders, veterinarians, and dog owners who fail to
grasp the big picture.
