At Westminster, Health and Work Get ZERO Points


The logo of the Westminster Dog Show features a pointer, but don't let that fool you, as honest field work is counted for ZERO points at Westminster.

As for the Scottish Deerhound that won last year it is likely to be dead by age eight and a half, a fact that is also a "never mind" at Westminster where health is afforded ZERO points.

Sad, but very true of many of the giant breeds.

The real tragedy through, is inbreeding to get looks, regardless of the consequences on health. And purposely breeding a "winner" with a known health or personality defect -- just because they have a title. In my book that is a crime.
