Ho Ho Ho dear. In the UK 40% of Bulldogs, 50% of French Bulldogs and 60% of Pugs have airway disease that has an impact on their quality of life. But 60% of owners of affected dogs don’t think their pets have a problem. Great flat-faced feature in today’s BritishVets In Practice
And….if Sam W-C was fined £400 and banned for 9 days for excessive use of the whip, how on Earth is it ethically or morally acceptable for Sam to keep the #GrandNational win? Let alone be celebrated for it!! Would be good to hear your thoughts The Jockey Club and @BHAPressOffice
This is devastating on so many levels. But also incredibly frustrating that irresponsible dog breeding & ownership has been debated endlessly for decades. Tackling the many dog problems in Society needs serious funding through compulsory, paid-for dog licensing. RSPCA (England & Wales)
.BritishVets and RSPCA (England & Wales) Would be great if you could reach out to Cuvva. Sure they’ll be keen to understand the irony in their ad!
