By highlighting conflicts around the shared use of ‘ordinary language’, I show how tensions between show‐world and veterinary perspectives relate to divergent understandings of ‘health’. Canine bodies speak to vets and breeders in conceptually different ways, so much so that breed‐specific features can be considered ‘perfect’ in the show‐ring yet ‘pathological’ in the veterinary clinic.

  • Maintaining Momentum Through a “Systems Thinking” Approach
    Canine health and welfare: Maintaining momentum through a “systems thinking” approach. Philippa Robinson October 2012 Abstract: Dog breeding, acquiring and owning has become contested ground in terms of ethics, health and welfare. The Advisory Council on the Welfare Issues of Dog Breeding is working on a programme of projects aimed at reforming many welfare problems. This article reviews some of the assumptions on which the Council is formed and suggests a fruitful way forward for debate and exchange might be found in the managerial discipline of systems thinking. Philippa Robinson has owned a purebred German wirehaired pointer which she campaigned in the show ring for a short while and now lives with a GWP/Weimaraner cross. Having lost the purebred to familial idiopathic epilepsy in 2006, she began finding out more about inherited diseases and what to do about them. Her philosophical position on dogs is that of humanitarian anthropocentric welfarism. Her approach to these debates is from a pluralist perspective. In 2011 she set-up The Karlton Index which attempts to look at the progress being made in breed health on a systematic basis. She is completing her Masters in Human Resource Management at Sheffield Business School which prompted her interest in systems thinking and learning. I am very grateful to several canine experts who have made comments on my first draft which I have now incorporated in this final version. © P Robinson The Karlton Index ltd 2012 1 Canine health and welfare: Maintaining momentum through a “systems thinking” approach. “We begin by eschewing the role of specialists who deal only in parts.

  • When Good People Think Strange Things About Dogs
    When Good People Think Strange Things About Dogs Patrick Burns I am thrilled to be here today among all you canine professionals. You see the folks in this room are more than dog trainers. You talk dogs, sleep dogs, write dogs, and debate dogs. You’re not just dog trainers.... You are also dog debaters, dog listeners, dog commentators, dog bloggers, dog list-serv managers, dog authors, dog newsletter editors…. and yes … even dog conference presenters. You are the people who shape – or could shape – a great deal of dog culture in this country. Dog culture. How many of you have thought about culture in the world of dogs? Perhaps we should think of that more because, I will argue, it is culture that is responsible for the fact that so many good people think strange things about dogs. 1 Strange Things To start, look around. How many people in this room are non-white? A strange question, eh? You thought this session was about dogs, didn’t you? The point is that for most of the world, this discussion is strange. In much of Africa, Asia, and Latin America, dogs are not allowed indoors. Who lets an animal indoors that may have fleas and ticks, and that may eat its own feces? Who allows such an animal on the bed? Who lets it lick a child in the face? No one! So, to put a point on it, this obsession with dogs that we have is, for the most part, a European cultural affliction. Most of the world, believe it or not, does not have this affliction.

  • The Dog Fancy at War: Breeds, Breeding, and Britishness, 1914-1918
    Society & Animals 21 (2013) 546-567 brill.com/soan The Dog Fancy at War: Breeds, Breeding, and Britishness, 1914-1918 Philip Howell University of Cambridge [email protected] Abstract This essay examines the impact of the Great War on the breeding and showing of pedigree dogs (the “dog fancy”) in Britain. Hostility toward Germany led first to a decline in the popularity of breeds such as the dachshund, with both human and canine “aliens” targeted by nationalist fer- vor. Second, the institutions of dog breeding and showing came under threat from accusations of inappropriate luxury, frivolity, and the wasting of food in wartime, amounting to the charge of a want of patriotism on the part of breeders. Third, the paper shows how the “dog fancy” responded to this “agitation against dogs,” turning on mongrels, stray dogs, and “useless” and unpatriotic humans, exposing deep divisions within the dog breeding community. By looking at the politics of the “dog fancy” in wartime, this paper extends the discussion of animals and national identity, arguing that while dogs could be used to articulate patriotic sentiments, their conditional citizenship meant that they were uniquely vulnerable at a time of national crisis. Keywords animals in history, Britishness, dog breeding, dog food, dogs, dog shows, nationalism, World War I Introduction The origins of the breeding and showing of pedigree dogs—the “dog fancy”— have been ably documented by Harriet Ritvo (1986, 1987) in her seminal work on nonhuman animals in Victorian Britain, interpreting British dog breeders’ manipulation of animal nature and construction of breed standards principally through the lens of class.
