telephone, and e-mail. |

seeking to acquire a Terv. |
| Inform people seeking a Terv of all the pros and cons
to living with a Terv. |

Member breeders, breedings, and breed issues. |
| Refer inquiries to Members in good standing and who are
known to require health clearances (i.e. hips, eyes, CERF) on their dogs. |

motives or attitudes contrary to the ABTC Code of Ethics. |
