VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Request to supress, shot down!

The AKC Board considered a request from the Doberman Pinscher Club of America to apply the "WZ" prefix to the registration number of any Doberman Pinscher brought into the registry through the conditional Registration system, as well as their offspring. This is the same prefix used to identify potential carriers of the white gene. While this would affect very few dogs, the Board was reluctant to establish this type of precedent of treating a dog as if it were a potential carrier of the white gene with no information or evidence to substantiate this. Following a motion by Dr. Garvin, seconded by Mr. Merriam, it was VOTED (affirmative: Dr. Garvin, Mr. Merriam, Mr. Goodman, Ms. Scully, Dr. Newman, Mrs. Strand, Mr. Keene, Dr. Davies, Mrs. Schaefer, Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Marden; opposed: Dr. Haines; abstaining: Mr. Menaker) to respectfully decline the request.
