Crufts revises its standards amid accusations of poor dog health
Not long to go until this year’s Crufts start to take over our televisions. I don’t know about you, but I love sitting down and watching my favourite furry friends trot around the arena, showing off their shiny coats.
But Crufts has come under attack recently over accusations that it encourages inbreeding which can lead to health problems in dogs.
Well now the British institution is fighting back by saying that it will focus more on working animals and even mongrels.
The Kennel Club has also worked with vets to revise its standards for the competition. The health of the dog is now top of the agenda with Crufts according to the Kennel Club. And I should hope so too!
Although Crufts wasn’t shown on television last year because the BBC refused to air it, it will be back on our screens this year on More4. I can’t wait!
