Looks like one organisation is making a stand.

Shame the KC Dog Trust just gave them 46 grandSeptember 16, 2008 at 11:02 am #90472AnonymousGuestDitto Val, it wasn’t do long ago that the KC kicked the RSPCA out of Crufts-they weren’t missed then & won’t be in the future.
I wonder if they will give back the £46,000 I very much doubt it.
I’m still waiting for the RSPCA to get back to me about a neglected dog I rescued that was in 1990 never did get a reply & I did keep her for the next 11 1/2 years.
September 16, 2008 at 11:05 am #90473AnonymousGuestI can’t see it being that damaging to the image of crufts & as Caroline Kisco said yesterday, it would be hypocritical of the RSPCA not to quit crufts after the unhelpful criticisms they made about the KC on Pedifree Dogs Exposed. It would be very interesting to see a similar program expose the RSPCA because i don’t think they have ever been so unpopular & ineffective at thier own job & are hardly in a position to judge other organizations.

[/quote]Absolutley :agree: with that quote, the only time they seem to do anything is when they are being followed about by a TV crew!
September 19, 2008 at 7:40 pm #90477Foxisle_crazyMemberI wasn’t sorry to hear this. They’re shooting themselves in the foot, as bev says re funding and donations. Now the Dogs trust have pulled out too ::)
