Becky Harstad I too have found Ms. Harstad to be less than credible Tennessee

Anyone who doesn't like someone can write crap about them on these places. I have been showing dogs around Becky for 5 yrs now and I am currently looking to get a b***h from her. She has nice dogs and has always spoken and been very nice. Yes she is involved in a lot of things dealing with the dogs. I think people like the fact that they can post lies about others on the internet and it is there for good. Don't believe everything you read from forums like this. There are 2 sides to every story.

I came across this while searching for a company in TN.

I don't know MAC, or the coward who wouldn't leave a name, but please grow a set!!!

Terry, I just want to clarify some of the mistakes in your report to this site. First, I have never said that I was on the Board of DCA. Not even a member of DCA so how can I be on the Board. I am also very open about the fact that I am not now a member of DCA by my choice and have told many people the reason. Never said that I was on the Board for AKC. And I never said that I was an Earthdog judge. I am an AKC Field Trial Judge and have been doing earthdog since before AKC even had the event. But I am not nor have I ever said that I was an Earthdog Judge. As to the statement that "I" helped write the rules for AKC earthdog, well, I was involved with the development of it when I did live in California. Never said that I wrote the rules but I did say that one of the rules was due to something that one of my dogs did during one of the working test to decide what would be involved for each level. Either you are making up these things out of whole cloth or you are purposefully lying for some reason.

I lived in California for many years but left there in 2004 and now live in Tennessee. And I am 63 years old so thank you very much for saying that I look like I am in my 30's. Just wonder how you managed to find a picture of me that old on the internet. Evidently, your ability to search the internet is not as good as you think. Also, just for your information. Mac is not a man. She is a woman who lives in Oregon and not New York. Her real name is Sussie Due or whatever else she is calling herself these days.

The reason that my rebuttal to Sussie's story did not appear until it did was because I was unaware of anything being done by Ms Due since I had not had any contact with her since she was removed from several internet chat lists (only one of which I was in control of) because of her trying to incite trouble on those lists. I personally know of at least 4 lists from which she has been removed for this reason. Have no clue as to what web site of mine that has been shut down due to lack of payment since I have not had a web site. Some European breeders did set up something many years ago, at least 10, for me but other than providing them with information, I didn't have any part in maintaining it. And the places where Mac or Sussie Due had her encounters with me are still very much up and running.

I don't know why you have chosen to slam me this way since I have never had any contact with you that I know of. I am a breeder but I am also very involved with rescue and I train service dogs. I donate my time to take my dogs to schools, rest homes, and care facilities. It is my thought that since Mac's post stated that she lived in NY, you might just be another version of the same person. Very interesting thought, that.

Please allow this to be posted. Thank you.
