It has caused quite a stir there. I will add that of course most breeders who show dogs are much better than the ones that are highlighted in this documentary. Obviously there are bad seeds in all areas.[:(!] There is reference in this film to genetic diversity and the problems inherent with breeding dogs within a closed stud book system.[:D] I'll post the links to the youtube page with the 6 segments, and as well as to the diversity study mentioned in the film. http://ca.youtube.com/results?search_query=pedigree+dogs+exposed&search_type=&aq=-1&oq= http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/newsandeventspggrp/imperialcollege/newssummary/news_15-8-2008-12-22-2 http://www.genetics.org/cgi/content/abstract/179/1/593 Hope you enjoy. Woof!
