BBC survives dogfight over its Kennel Club expose

The BBC and the Kennel Club both claimed victory yesterday after the broadcasting watchdog Ofcom issued its ruling on a documentary that exposed breeding techniques causing deformity and disease in dogs.

Ofcom said that the programme, screened on BBC One in August last year, was overwhelmingly accurate in its criticisms of the Kennel Club but did not give the organisation enough time to respond to some allegations, including claims about its links to the eugenics movement and the Nazis.
