Where can I find information about the Kennel Club's "Fit for Function, Fit for Life" campaign?

Question

Unless I'm missing something obvious (it's possible - lol), I can't find any information about it on the Kennel Club's website.

Can you point me towards some information?

Thanks.

Answer 1

It's not something you are likely to come across unless you are an active member of a breed club.

‘Fit for function – fit for life’. This, in conjunction with breed clubs, focuses on tackling unnecessary exaggeration in some breeds, whether that is of coat, weight, skin, angulation, eye formation or shortness of muzzle. All dogs should be fit for function, even if that function is to be a pet - all dogs should be able to see, breath and walk freely.

Answer 2

Last I heard was in May this year when they were discussing introducing it.

My cynical mind leads me to believe it was a reflex action due to the undergoing two year investigation. A bit like their new website: Dog Genetic Health.
