Stay sensible, stay safe, but have fun. Good luck everyone going....
I think you will find that some of us who protest against the exploitation of animals at circus’s and the like can spell quite well actually.

So their!

The link must have crashed due to the volume of traffic it is now working.

Heres a bit of good PR from the NEC;

I have never heard of anything so ridiculous, throwing eggs at dogs and owners its playground stuff. I am supposed to be taking my kids on Sunday as they loved it last year, now I am not so sure its even going to be a safe environment for them. Why do these people have to be so small minded and spoil a perfectly positive event for Happy healthy dogs and owners......

Have to say I would stand next to spot to complain about the use of animals at circus'.

As for the protests at Crufts...I think it is appalling that things like egg throwing are even a possibility. So called animal lovers doing that.
Yes...there are some bad breeders and they wil;l be exhibiting at Crufts...and some will leave their dogs benched on their own for most of the day. BUT there are also some exceptionally good breeders/owners who see it as a day out with their dogs who will picnic by their dogs bench and not leave their dogs side. How will such protesters differentiate?
