ZNA allowance for professionals showing

[koicluboftheair]

I've found it a real education to follow forum threads about ZNA versus AKCA rules and I've gotten schooled by many on their intepretation of the rules as they read and are enforced. Certainly the rules of ZNA are more strict regarding professionals not being able to show. This has some bearing on many prestigious shows around the country that present their rules as of the highest ZNA standards. Yet, of recent these wonderful forums have revealed that even ZNA can be manipulated as one respected breeder has pointed out that Goforth tried to get a show chair to exclude a couple of employees of a dealer in Cali, but the chair overode the ZNA district and this couple, which are also AKCA club board members won GC. So if Goforth cannot prevent this sort of thing happening and it goes on under the radar why should ZNA rules be ballyhooed in the first place? I like ZNA and AKCA, but rules are not made to be broken and both organizations rules should be respected in my opinion. How about yours?

The respected breeder was rehashing what had been edited out in that thread. The original info had been posted by the owner of said board. Now that is the truth. As for the rest of what you wrote...I don't really care as it is just attempt to smear someone who has given much to this hobby. This thread is closed as this board is about koi and not politics.
