Couldn't agree more.

The real question is, what insanity is possessing you to where you actually get riled up over what other people do (or don't do) with their own dogs?

You are suffering from what is called a "Boundary Disorder" in which you actually believe your thoughts, ideas, and practices "ought" to apply to other people.

The truth is, it is none of your business what criteria other people decide to use, and it has no bearing on you whatsoever.

You only have control over what you do (or don't do) with your own animals ... and, if what you're doing really is superior to what other people are doing, you will ultimately have much greater satisfaction when your results prove this over time. For, ultimately, results are the only things which matter, not opinions or complaints.

Therefore, let your results prove your point, if they can, and let other people's results prove theirs too, one way or another. Everyone has the right to his own methods & standards, or even the lack thereof, and at the end of the day the overall results will speak the truth about everyone's practices.
