I have just read the January edition of Dogs Today and  on pages
11 - 13 there is a Jemima Harrison article knocking breed clubs and in particular the stands at Discover Dogs where she says that she was told by a breed representative in a breed which has a documented cancer problem of 50% that "it was much less than 10%) 
    Furthermore, she then goes on about the club web sites and says:
"There are some notable exceptions. The BMDCGB is a brilliant example of what can be done when there's a real commitment to providing good health information. There is warts-and-all acknowledgement that the breed suffers from cancer and clear signs that the breed club is proactive on health matters (in this instance, a current health survey)"

Wow! All I can say is for once Jemima you have noticed that some clubs try hard.
Thanks,
Aileen

Shame she didn't make a program about that!

Excellent, she could praise a few more clubs as i'm sure that there are many others doing the same thing as our GB club..

Aileen can i ask about the health surveys, i signed up last year and heard nothing more. Have they/are they due to send out the forms soon, or have i somehow been missed off the posting list? If i have been missed i'll get in touch with SG. Just don't want to start bothering him if its on its way.

Hi Sue.
No you have not been missed, patience is needed!!!
Aileen
