‘Healthy’ Discussion About Dogs
The Kennel Club, along with the Pet Food Manufacturer’s Association, is inviting dog breeders, experts and enthusiasts to come together at the Breeders’ Symposium 2010 to discuss topical issues and how advances in science could transform the future for healthy, happy dogs.

The theme for this year’s event will be ‘Breeding for Health’, a topic that reflects the Kennel Club’s commitment to putting dog health at the top of the agenda and should also be of considerable interest to breeders.
 
Anybody who has an interest in dogs is invited to attend the Symposium, which will include discussions on various health & breeding topics. The discussions will be hosted by experts in their field and each presentation will be followed by an open question and answer session.

The event is being held from 9.30am on Sunday 28th November at the Royal Veterinary College in North Mymms, Hertfordshire.
 
The Breeders’ Symposium costs £32.50 per person which includes morning refreshments, a buffet lunch and a delegate pack. To obtain a booking form, please contact Yohann Dieul, Health & Breeder Assistant, on 020 7518 6870 or email yohann.dieul@thekennelclub.org.uk.

BVA urges 'continued vigilance' over bluetongue

The British Veterinary Association (BVA) has urged vigilance following a concerning rise in Bluetongue (BTV) cases in sheep and cattle.

In a recent statement, the BVA noted that members are reporting more severe clinical signs and higher mortality rates than in previous years.

'We know that farm vets are working hard to support farmers and animals affected by this outbreak, during what is an extremely difficult time for all involved,' they stated. 'Continued vigilance to identify disease early is vital and vaccination remains the best way of protecting animals from this disease.'
