Each to his own, Noddi. I don't believe he can judge night from day and there were some good, sound bitches at WELKS, yet...

Carol,
This was an outrageous TV interview. Fear not, we are all with you on this. I would suggest a complaint to the Broadcasting Standards people at the least.
Have you read the blog which David put the link to on the pdb? It gives some hope that not everyone is against us!

Just in case you have high blood pressure, I suggest you sit down with a glass of brandy when you read this post on behalf of Pam Edgington.

Here it is the last day at Crufts 2010.. I feel totally humiliated. At 76 years old and what? 40 years in the breed? Because a kennel club official and their Vet said my 5 month old baby GSD was unsound and they did not want her to be on a display team which the members of the public would see and which the K.C. felt was not the "sort of German Shepherd" they wanted the General Public to see I was asked to leave. Yes... Get out FAST ... leave the show. No questions of not going in the team again but "Get Out" ... LEAVE" How humiliating is that? A 5 month old baby? Loose yes ... Unsound at 5 months? possibly but 110% sound in character, 110 % sound in working ability - exactly WHAT are the K.C. looking for? Here we have 110% soundness of character - even the KC Official said that - but because she is a baby and loose I get banished from Crufts 2010. For my part - lets get away from this beauocracy and stupidness. We can do without it.

There are no depths to which they will not sink. I'm sorry to hear that you were treated so appallingly, Pam.
How do we get the same media platform?
by Wildmoor on 14 March 2010 - 21:03
you are correct Noddi the kc state :
Ban on close matings – It is vital that the genetic diversity of all breeds remains at a healthy level and in January 2009, the Kennel Club announced that it would crack down on the small number of breeders who continue to use the practice of mating close relatives, by refusing to register those puppies that are born from any mother/son, father/daughter or brother/sister mating.

Regarding the "big 4" if they continue to flirt with the KC after this they will have shown they don't give a flying f**ck about the GSD.
Regarding them that have signed the KC dictate- reflect at your leisure on the consequences.
Regarding AW of bagsd see him for what he is.
I am sorry for the owner of that pup it's a disgrace.
Only one thing to do, as Paulie said.
move on ASAP.
