Tonight on BBC1 - UK main television channel - there was a controversial documentary about how pedigree dogs are being "ruined" due to "interbreeding for the show ring" and veterinary problems are on the increase. (Quotation marks reflect the message of the documentary, not necessarily my views but I'm not getting into that).
Anyway, about halfway through there was a really lovely close-up head shot of a liver spotted Dalmatian. Guess who? Yep, it's Deccy, the one in my avatar!!
It was taken at Crufts 2007 which was one of only two British shows I went to over the two year period of the documentary research and shooting. Members of the UK breed clubs are already online asking who the dogs were so I have put my hand up - but also pointed out I knew nothing about it.
Fame eh? Pity it was in what will be a highly controversial programme. Still, the shot of Deccy was excellent so I've emailed the production company to see if I can get a copy!
