the UK has quite good stats, one would imagine that you would take off at least 85% to show Australian stats (I am extrapolating Dandie Dinmonts)

It's just pretty sad all round.

Interestingly the King Charles Spaniel is on the endangered list

Problem is some of those breeds truly aren’t endangered but due to stubborn breeders who refuse to change there ways .

One breed listed on there has no reason at all to be and it’s due to a glass house attitude of not wanting to use stud dogs outside of the UK.

The UK breeders have it so lucky in being able drive so easily to other countries and have a massive choice of males,lines and diversity but for stupid reasons won’t .

At one stage the UK kennel club considered cross breeding to increase the gene pool and those same breeders thought that was awesome ,

Cant fix stupid sometimes
