  • Resumen

  • Welcome to this episode of The Underdog Vet Podcast! In this episode’s Animal Advocate Interview, I spoke with Jemima Harrison, a TV producer, dog rescuer and all-round animal welfare campaigner who also runs a small gundog rescue. She’s probably best known for having produced the ground breaking investigative documentary Pedigree Dogs Exposed. It aired on BBC One back in 2008 and exposed a multitude of welfare issues within the pedigree dog breeding and showing industries. Jemima and I discussed the heart breaking issues raised in her documentary, whether she feels things have improved since then and what her latest projects are. Definitions: Coefficient Of Inbreeding: Inbreeding is a measure of how closely related your dog’s parents were. The higher the inbreeding coefficient, the more closely related the parents. In general, higher inbreeding coefficients are associated with increased incidence of genetically inherited conditions, reduced fecundity, and reduced life span IVDD: Intervertebral Disk Disease (https://vetspecialists.co.uk/fact-sheets-post/intervertebral-disc-herniation-or-slipped-disc-fact-sheet/) DCM: Dilated Cardiomyopathy (https://vetspecialists.co.uk/fact-sheets-post/dilated-cardiomyopathy/) F1/F2/F3 Cross: F1 crosses in animals can be between two inbred lines or between two closely related species or subspecies.
