Default Pedigree Dogs Exposed - BBC1

is anyone watching this ? I am utterly utterly disgusted at these ridiculous owners who keep their stupidly ill dogs alive at whatever cost - the little spaniel who had the back half of its skull removed to allow its brain to work properly coz it was so inter bred its skull was too small - its died a few days later - thy said on the programme that the dogs were usually in pain - what sick idiot does this to a beloved pet - and those people who kept that boxer with severe epilepsy?? I'm really sorry if this offends but I dont care - these people should be shot - what sort of a life does that dog have??? I have a boxer cross breed and if my dog EVER showed such symptoms I'm afraid that she would have to be put to sleep coz in my opinion that would be the kindest thing to do and not let them suffer and be in such pain they are rolling around on the floor whimpering - disgusting and I am so upset by this programme!!!

Im watching it to.Those GSD were disgusting my friend breeds and shows her GSD and NONE of them move like that. My Poodle has epilepsy but nothing like that poor Boxer. It couldnt even walk up the steps. Also Killing Ridgeback pups without the ridge, why not sell to pet homes.The whole thing is so sad but The pedigree world works differently than everyone else
