For God Sake it isnt rocket science, to improve the health of dogs, stop stating that show dogs are healthy specimens, make testing mandatory for all breeds, stop permitting breed clubs the sway they have and regulate those that fail to implement testing. Isnt it now about time that a vote of NO CONFIDENCE was commenced against this heirarchy within the KC. A NEW SCHEME IS REQUIRED BUT GET IT RIGHT , Why not simply call it The Kennel Club Health Registration Scheme. 1. No dog is bred if not health tested 2.No dog is shown if not health tested and certified Fit for purpose. 3.No dog awarded any CC if has no health test for every consecutive year at show. 4. ALL judges appointments held on probation for the next 2 years until they have ALL been reveiewed as judging fairly. 5. EVERY dog born must be microchipped 6.Every breed club assessed as to whether its fit for purpose. 7. An INDEPENDENT review body consisting of vets, welfare inspectors and members of the public to assess all shows. 8. Appoint a new KC breeder panel that ISNT tied in with show judging. 9. A new registration scheme to run alongside the KC as a purely pet scheme that will allow for those dogs to be shown within their general mixes. 10. A fine system in operation for any breeder who uses small line breeding schemes through line ignorance. The KC tend to be reactive NOT proactive !!!!!
