Dogs: Animal Breeding
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment he has made of the impact of Canine Fertility Clinics on the number of dogs from the brachycephalic breeds.
Answered by Daniel Zeichner
Defra does not hold the requested information. However, to understand the impact of dog breeding activities, including canine fertility businesses, on individual and overall breed health and welfare, Defra has commissioned an opinion from the Animal Welfare Committee. The opinion will be published in due course.
