James and all, JS often lists where he is shipping his pups but if they are from him - I don't think anyone wants to pay shipping back after all it is just a "dog". Tina, Jack claimed to bring them here in 1994 right James? Problem is someone else could have brought them in and not said anything. I don't believe the US is that tight on breeds brought in so it would be impossible to know for sure. A small group such as ours cannot control the spreading of this breed to people that believe they could "handle" it. No dog group has that kind of control or power. The dog laws in some of the countries represented in this group have very strict control of import, transport, and breeding. There are other countries that don't. I believe this is one reason "our" TRDs are in trouble. Improper breeding can alter a breed more rapidly than controlled breeding. James, this is what Cathy was running into, I'm sure and this is only one of the breeds she deals with. Jo-Ann
