I posted in here, as I will get alot more honesty,rationalty,commonsense and awareness than other sections.

I have watched the doco, about Pedigree dogs twice. I remember years ago,the grandfathers,drovers,stockmen,cattlemen and many others all taking note of those breedings dogs soley based on looks. The common agreement amongst many was, what a mess and wreck was going to be the end result.

Before I go any further,we have both purebred and some crossbred dogs so i have no axe to grind.

I have to agree with much of the doco and contrary to the denial in another section, I found the doco to be fairly well balanced.

I found it a disgrace after seeing some of those pan lickers that won or placed at crufts.

i found it quite disturbing that a dog judge at Crufts was saying that dogs which were obvisouly very weak structure wise, more ideally repersented the breed standard.

Not every breed IS a mess Tony. A balanced view would make that point.
