If by BYB u mean that I dont have a major facility or that my dogs dont have multigenerational background paperwork (which can easily be hung) then i must be a BYB but (and think about this) by the standard for a BYB today, John P Colby would be considered one if he was trying to start the colby bloodline in todays society. not really trying to upset anyone, just stateing my opinion of the way i percieve things 2 be nowadays
