RSPCA Ruffs
We were overwhelmed by entries for our
first alternative online dog show in 2014.
Ruffs celebrates dogs for their welfare
and happiness. Ruffs, our dog show with a
difference, was born out of frustration with
'beauty pageant' style dog shows, which judge
dogs based on their looks, even when it's
these looks and extreme exaggerated features
that can cause suffering. Ruffs 'Best in Show'
was Tiny, a Rottweiler who had overcome
tremendous suffering to look like a different
dog two years after his rescue.
