As I am wont to wonder, now that I am approaching advanced maturity and tend toward remembrance of things past rather than to future anticipation: Did what I did make increasing sense and show some degree of intellectual progress as time passed; or did I fall into a rut early on and go with the flow?

EDITOR’S NOTE: While perusing some past issues over the weekend, we came across this article written by the late, great Herman Felton. For those of you that didn’t know Herman, he and his wife Judy were outstanding breeders/owners and respected judges. Herman was a thoughtful man who had a lot of ideas about the future of the sport of purebred dogs. He was happy to share his thoughts with those in the fancy. Unfortunately, they never got the attention of the powers at AKC. Here is one of his thought-provoking articles that shows his foresight regarding the future of AKC and the sport. Enjoy.
