    Iggys In Group Wins

    And its hardly an easy thing to win in the fci sighhound (not hound .. no such thing under fci) group. Its not an easy thing to shiny out over afghans and borzoys and salukis, etc if you are a small iggy.

    Castration

    Possibly forever, as it is not really guaranteed to work that way in older specimen. It will anyways only work on the hormonal part, not learned behaviours. Its not a miracle cure, but can work when applied alongside other measures. It also depends on what "being a pain" means in this particular...

    Line Breeding

    Is this really true? The KC was as far as I know still accepting whippet registrations of dogs from non-registered parents well into the 1930s, and it doesn't sound overly likely that the majority of them would have had common parents with Ch Zuber, nor that exclusively CH Zuber descendant stock...

    Line Breeding

    The result is IMHO good or bad (and should be judged the same way) regardless of whetever or not or to what extent the parents are related. After all, the goal is the same - to produce healthy dogs that are also hopefully an improvement over their parents. Breeding is not about producing a...

    Question

    This is off topic to an extent, but - my total amateurs understanding is that this is so in dalmatians solely due to the very close link between blue eyes and bilateral deathness in dalmatians. Reportedly disallowing of blue eyes in FCI / UK standards (as opposed to the AKC one) and the...

    Pet Passport Scheme

    Sorry, the part I didn't really get was the one relating to pet passports ... how do these come into play and / or worsen the case? As the sandfly does not live in the UK, there does not appear to be any realistic way for the diseas to be communicated from one dog to another in the UK. As the...
