This is for information purposes only, I'm not starting a debate around pedigree dogs and Crufts.
Apparently, animal rights protestors are intending to visit Crufts Thursday - Sunday inclusive. Their motto is:
"A dead dog is better than a show dog"
They have threatened to let dogs out of their cages in the benching areas. Also on the grapevine is a threat of a 'rolling roadblock' on the M42. Get into the nearside lane a junction early so there's no chance of your being blocked in on the centre lane before the NEC exit.
The Discover Dogs area is named as being a target too.
If you are visiting Crufts, then please be extra vigilant, for your own safety. If you are an exhibitor, then you are probably already aware of this threat.
I'll be there tomorrow as its terriers and hounds.
