Abstract
exhibition, competition, and sociality, and the contested emergence of the Kennel Club as the final arbiter on all dog-related disputes. The final three chapters discuss the role of the canine and sporting press, the role of specialist clubs representing the interests of those breeding and trading certain breeds, and the role of experience and science in improving breeds. The final chapter examines the criticisms directed at dog shows and specific practices, such as cropping ears and docking tails, and offers some reflections on the meaning of the book for contemporary debates on dog breeds.
