Charlotte -- we have the same problems here in South Carolina.  I agree with 
you completely when you say you don't want to sponsor them.  For people like 
this, the standard, code of ethics, etc, will have little meaning for them.  
All they are looking for is to be able to say they're members of GPCA, in 
hopes of getting higher prices for their poor quality dogs.
