In 1940 The Kennel Club, 'Dog World' & 'Our Dogs' paid to produce a Spitfire plane which went into service on 1941. Its name was chosen as a pun on the dogfight style of one-on-one air combat. Today, we reflect on this history & honour those that were lost. #VEDay #VictoryDay

Vulnerable native breeds are breeds of British & Irish origin that have declining registration numbers. These breeds are at risk of disappearing, simply because people don’t know they exist or they aren’t considered fashionable 🥺 Find out more: thekennelclub.org.uk/vulnerablebree…

7 vulnerable native breeds that we're monitoring that make up our 'At Watch' list. Sadly the number of registered breeds have been declining over recent years, therefore we're trying to protect them through raising their profile. #TheKennelClub #BritishBreeds #PedigreeDogs

It's not widely known that there are in fact two breeds of #Corgi 🤔 When thinking of a Corgi, the more popular #Pembroke breed comes to mind, but in fact the #Cardigan is thought to be the original.
