The recent news of foiling an attempt to import puppies into the UK from Ireland is proof in itself that this IS happening!! This trafficking attempt was only small scale! This is barbaric treatment of mans best friend is growing by the day!! PLEASE END the torture, PLEASE END the Suffering, the heartache and the Deaths of our beloved companions!</p> </article> <article> <h1>Mrs Ros Phillips [Signature #49]</h1> <p>Sat, 16 Oct 2010 09:55:29 UTC</p> Mrs Ros Phillips, Dartmouth,, Devon, United Kingdom<p>Because of the high prices commanded, far too many Shih Tzu's are being bred with congenital faults such as hernias, enlongated palate, enlarged hearts and small jaws that cause dental problems. Sellers boast of '5 generations of KC registration' but there is no certainty that these were animals a reputable breeder would pair, or even if they are the actual dam and sire.</p> </article> <article> <h1>Mr Gary Simpson [Signature #48]</h1> <p>Tue, 12 Jan 2010 04:57:13 UTC</p> Mr Gary Simpson<p>The KC aren't interested, its all about money to them.

Suspect 'breeders' should NOT be allowed to register their puppies at the Kennel Club as registration of a puppy is generally regarded by members of the public as a guarantee of good and caring breeding practice - this is all too frequently not the case. Anyone constantly registering litters of any size should be thoroughly checked out.</p> </article> <article> <h1>Mrs Carol Stobbs [Signature #31]</h1> <p>Wed, 27 Aug 2008 02:51:05 UTC</p> Mrs Carol Stobbs </article> <article> <h1>mrs lynn bampton [Signature #30]</h1> <p>Tue, 26 Aug 2008 02:31:44 UTC</p> mrs lynn bampton, liverpool, merseyside, United Kingdom<p>This petition is long overdue</p> </article> <article> <h1>Mr Richard Herd [Signature #29]</h1> <p>Tue, 26 Aug 2008 02:05:41 UTC</p> Mr Richard Herd, Otterburn, Northumberland, United Kingdom<p>Something must be done!</p> </article> <article> <h1>Miss ROSEMARIE FLACK [Signature #28]</h1> <p>Tue, 26 Aug 2008 12:43:28 UTC</p> Miss ROSEMARIE FLACK, West Sussex, United Kingdom<p>AFTER THE RECENT TV PROGRAMME THE KC WERE SAW IN A BAD LIGHT THIS COULD HLEP EVERYONE KNOW THAT THEY ACTUALLY DO CARE ABOUT THE WELFARE OF THE DOGS AND NOT JUST ABOUT THE MONEY THEY RAKE IN FROM PEOPLE OR THE GOOD SALARIES THEY GET</p> </article> <article> <h1>Miss Marileanne FLACK [Signature #27]</h1> <p>Tue, 26 Aug 2008 12:41:36 UTC</p> Miss Marileanne FLACK, West Sussex, United Kingdom </article> <article> <h1>MR KEVIN FLACK [Signature #26]</h1> <p>Tue, 26 Aug 2008 12:40:41 UTC</p> MR KEVIN FLACK, West Sussex, United Kingdom<p>The KC get enough money so may the should get off there backsides and do something about it they certainly might get more respect if they did</p> </article> <article> <h1>Mr Jonathan Meyer [Signature #25]</h1> <p>Sun, 24 Aug 2008 05:29:28 UTC</p> Mr Jonathan Meyer, United States of America<p>A Shih Tzu is a small dog. Carrying six puppies to term would be a struggle, but up to eleven is like an elephant having quads! The Kennel Club is being made a fool of and the breed is suffering as a result. Please test these large litters, even if only at random. I feel sure that you would find evidence of malpractice. This would restore the good name of the Kennel Club, which I believe is being besmirched and would protect the integrity of our wonderful breed, the Shih Tzu.

This only once, and several puppies died at birth.<br /> Something is definitely wrong. Possibly brought about by the KC ruling that one becomes an accredited breeder if more than 4 litters a year are registered.<br /> An accredited breeder can have premises checked without notice. Possibly these breeders cannot afford to have their breeding premises examined. So 2 litters are linked together.</p> </article> <article> <h1>Mr Paul Masson [Signature #2]</h1> <p>Thu, 17 Jul 2008 02:58:18 UTC</p> Mr Paul Masson, Bideford, Devon, United Kingdom<p>I am glad someone has had the 'wisdom' to raise such an important point as this approach to perceived profiteering is abundant in all walks of life; anything for a quick buck, damn the cost (non-financial).</p> <p>Quality has to be maintained at any cost if we wish to treasure what we have got; the breed as intended from creation reproduced in a manner that is not heavily biased/led by financial profiteering as some today see it as, without l am sure on occasion the dogs best interest at heart.</p> </article> <article> <h1>Sue Cole [Signature #1]</h1> <p>Wed, 16 Jul 2008 09:48:26 UTC</p> Sue Cole<p>Good luck with this!
