In 2008 Pedigree Dogs Exposed lifted the lid on the true extent of the health and welfare problems faced by pedigree dogs in the UK.

The startling expose of harmful breeding practices generated a massive reaction from the public and from those involved in dog breeding.

Now the programme’s producer Jemima Harrison returns to explore what has happened since she made the original film. Deeply affected by the issues that she uncovered, Jemima has become a campaigner on dog welfare.

In this programme she takes a personal look at the positive changes that have been introduced since the first film and investigates areas of continuing concern, particularly among breeds like the Pug, the Bulldog and the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Jemima hears from dog breeders and a range of experts, many of whom express grave worries about the future of some of our best loved breeds.

yes, most of it was just a rehash of the first one and some very heavily edited snipets from interviews - more of same interview giving is seen in the KC program that was doing the rounds of the web recently

Mmmmm - I thought that KC one was pretty "blar blar blar" too, actually :) But nice to see Steve Dean wandering around with his Border Terrier in tow.....go the Little Brown Dogs :thumbsup:

Interesting photos. Were they backed up by historical photos?

And another question: are the show dogs actually show dogs? I recall when Jemima Harrison came on DOL and refused to answer questions about whether the epileptic boxer was actually a pedigree dog.
