More than 16,000 people have signed RSPCA's petition calling for the breed standards for pedigree dogs to be reviewed in order to prioritise health and welfare above looks (The Animal News 10th January 2012). RSPCA plan to present the final petition numbers to the Kennel Club demonstrating the scale of public support for the breed standards to be reviewed.
Check out the RSPCA's excellent guide to some of the health and welfare problems of 15 popular dog breeds most at risk due to their conformational issues.
