Submission to the Associate Parliamentary Group for Animal Welfare working group on the welfare of pedigree dogs
نویسنده
چکیده
The current focus on dog breeding came about because of a BBCtv documentary Pedigree Dogs Exposed, aired in mid-August 2008, that was deeply critical of the KC. Just six weeks later the KC announced a comprehensive review of breed standards and the development of health plans for each breed, while lobbying government for a statutory role in their implementation. Does the KC have no shame? Or does it think the public, and our politicians, so simple that its announcement of a belated review of dog breeding will be accepted as a conversion borne of conviction?
