Leeview 791 Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Paying your entry fees is playing right in to their hands i.e 5-6-700 entries looks good on paper so to the organisers its of little consequence, boycott it and the numbers are down then they'll take notice Y.I.S Leeview Quote Link to post Share on other sites
terrier.2 123 Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) unfortunately we are a minority on here.there will be hundreds of entries from people that dont go on THL and there fore will not even enter their heads that a boycott is proposed,so our few dogs that are not going will probably not make one bit of difference Edited April 15, 2010 by terrier.2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sadmadbad 15 Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Got my schedule today and couldn't believe my eyes. No dogs under three and a half with a docked tail . The next thing it say's is to mark down any animal showing signs of work or as they put it (features or exaggerations which they consider would be detrimental to the soundness, health and well being of the dog). I was supposed to judge the Lakeys and blacks but they can F' OFF, so you can scratch my name of the schedule, workers and docked tails should be the only way forward, stop pandering to the tw*ts. As the person who invited you I can understand where you are coming from ?. I myself will attend on the day and resign as politics have nothing to do at this show ,this decision was made behind closed doors by top gys men(scabs) so please do what you think is right and let hope shit hits the fan ?.

sadmadbad 15 Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Lets be honest here, this could be last straw for the Great Yorkshire Terrier Show but its been going down hill for a few years since Tony Kirby ran it a true gentleman that stood by his roots amongst the terrier lads and looked after them The shower that took over what did they do with the entry fees?, Hiked them up from £1-05 yes to over £5 in one go boycott the show its the only way they'll sit up and take notice if it hits them in the pocket Y.I.S Leeview This so called gent is a back stabbing coward who brought to GYS the Tail docking law and rules then invited Terry Bailey to come on board christ you are having a laugh the knives are out Fell hounds on a Thursday at GYS 2011 .

NWTF was at meeting and discussed how they get round it so was the person you spoke to as I said 5 hours trying unsuccessfully to change there minds and opinions to no avail ?.
