Overwhelming agreement (>90%) at major animal welfare conference that 'uncontrolled [vet] treatment innovations are detrimental to [animal] welfare'. Robust regulation by Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and independent ethical oversight urgently needed? AWF #AnimalWelfare

Earthshot is brilliant. But why the totally OTT showbiz ceremony? Feels completely at odds with the whole concept. Had to switch off. Frustrating

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

A really impressive factory. The engineers have done an extraordinary job preparing it for #Grenadier mass production in under a year!

Hi everyone. Just noticed that some scumbag has fraudulently taken over my official facebook page. Working to get it back. So for now any posts on my Facebook account aren't from me.

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

The #breed of a #dog is not especially helpful in predicting its behaviour. “Many of the breed behavioural stereotypes put forth by breeding clubs are just not supported by data.” nbcnews.com/science/scienc…

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)

We like to to think we’re different, special, better. But, the truth is we’re just another mammal. And, apart from our brains, actually quite a simple one. When it comes to health, it’s not about us and them. #OneHealth
