1 hour 43 minutes Posted Mar 14, 2022 at 2:00 am.
Who is Gerard O'Shea
about the breeding
the Norwegian ban
Gerards 4 basic rules
the hypothetical elongevity certificate of the individual that shows the long living lines
the bresponsible breeders actions
the insurance situation
when you think the pedigree dogs
don’t buy simply on the looks
why not rewrite the standards so that the breeds have a healthy anatomy?
the role of social media in creating the extremes
our lifestyle changes
another example of exaggeration
what happens if we take away a breed
the character of the smaller breeds
it has never worked to ban forbidd things
the elongevity concept
the psykology term Boild frog syndrome
implicating that syndrome in dog people
the key is to educate
is the dog a extension of your ego?
a little bit of criticism of FCI organization
education rather then more and more rules
it’s a human problem really
the health programs vs. elongevity
breeding on young dogs vs.older dogs
be pragmatic
is recommendations the best way?
shall we turn it into a witch hunt? A personal experience.
Pushing for the elongevity program
it would apply to the pedigree dogs,
Educated public can make better, more pragmatic choices
summery of the possibilities of a elongevity program

Gerard is a FCI judge and a breeder of Rottweilers. Hear us discuss the extreme breeding. We try to find reasons why brachycephalic dogs are so popular today. The social media is showing the extremes and then we think that's normal. Where is the limit to it? Shall we ban the breeds that are suffering as Norway recently did? What is the way out?
