Timbers Ryman Major, Timber's Summer Eve, Timbers Ryman Tekke ~ Further Falsified Registrations by Setters West

Many people who set out to purchase an English Setter puppy spend a good amount of time researching various breeders and bloodlines to acquire a dog which they feel will best fit their hunting and companionship needs.
.
While the majority of breeders are careful and honest in their filings of registrations and their records of actual bloodlines when dealing with the OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) and the F.D.S.B. (Field Dog Stud Book), it takes only an occasional breeder who resorts to fraud and dishonesty and/or theft to upset the balance ~ not only where the official records and registrations are concerned, but in the genetic balance of the pups they are selling as well.
.
Some dog owners say their particular dog's breeding does not matter to them ~ however when pressed, they will freely admit having paid much more for a pup which could be registered with the F.D.S.B. than they would have paid if the pup could not be F.D.S.B.-registered.
.
In addition to defrauding their initial customers who purchase pups directly from them with falsified registrations based on fraudulent bloodlines, these unscrupulous breeders affect countless other dog owners and breeders who have purchased dogs and pups bred from Sires and Dams of other owners and breeders who unknowingly possess the fraudulent bloodlines of the unscrupulous breeder's original falsified F.D.S.B. registrations.
.
These original breeders cannot be considered "innocent by-standers" by any stretch of the imagination ~ when they have made every effort to knowingly promote, perpetuate (and profit from) their prime act of dishonesty when fraudulent F.D.S.B. registrations are initially falsified and submitted by them.
.
Unfortunately, when caught and proved to have submitted falsified and fraudulent records, their dishonest acts cause other unknowing and innocent people to also suffer the consequences ~ and leave these other people no recourse than to go back to the source of the problem ~ the unscrupulous breeder who falsified bloodline records and submitted fraudulent registrations in the first place.
.
Below are thumbnail links for full-size screen shots of OFA on-line records (created March 10th, 2009) for three of Setters West's "purported" off-spring tracing back to the "spayed" Grand-Dam, Ryman's Allegheny Sheba ~ the "spayed" English Setter which Rick and Chris Taylor of Setters West in Montana also claimed was the Dam of Timbers Sagaceous Blue (the latter whom they also claimed was whelped at Setters West in Montana when in fact she was NOT ~ and which is discussed in further detail elsewhere on this page).
.
Due to the dishonesty of Rick and Chris Taylor of Setters West in manufacturing fraudulent bloodlines for the falsification of their breeding records ~ which have been proven to be false by genetic testings (see previous postings on this page) ~ any bloodlines out of these three dogs and any other generational off-spring of Timbers Sagaceous Blue will be adversely affected by the consequences of the Taylors' previous actions:

Once again, the purpose here is not to denounce or accuse all breeders of dishonesty ~ most breeders work hard to breed and raise their dogs more for the joy of ownership and love of the breed than for any other reward ~ especially for the "rewards" of monetary gain.
..
But again, Rick and Chris Taylor of Setters West in Montana unfortunately are not the only breeders who have been proven by genetic testing to have committed fraud and theft with their use of falsified records.
.
As stated previously on this page, there have been other instances of fraudulent bloodlines and falsification of registrations of dogs bred by me (or "reportedly" bred by me and/or carrying the "Fetters" name) which are also presently being addressed by the proper authorities ~ and which will be further expounded upon in more detail here for the benefit of the interested public ~ in the very near future.
