I've been reading a lot of AKC articles and posts on their website, and other branches of AKC websites such as the ARC (American Rottweiler Club) and what they deem as SUITABLE dogs. They surely are some holier than thou buffoons, are they not? I was seriously baffled by all of these rules to follow each specific breed! Rottweilers, for instance, are considered to be unsuitable for living or breeding if their phenotype does not match every other dog in the breed. I have a pure-bred rottweiler who is in perfectly good health and has two pure-bred rottweiler parents who both fit the AKC's requirements, yet she was born with a red coat instead of a black coat.
So what they're saying is basically, even though my dog is healthy, happy, strong, and has never had any of these health problems that are supposed to come with red coated rotties according to the ARC and AKC, because she has a red coat she is unsuitable for breeding? I'm not interested in breeding my dog, but the simple fact of the matter is she'd produce perfectly healthy puppies. :/
Another thing that irritated me was seeing that they had said it would be cruel to let these 'unsuitable' red coated rotties to live due to the poor health conditions and difficulties the dog would have growing up. That makes me angry, unfathomably so. These people are despicable! They should not be allowed to work with animals, and anyone who thinks there are TRUTH to what they say is an absolute fool! My dog is proof!
