Not sure if this little video will work outside of the UK, due to copyright... but worth a try for those of you across the water!

Video worked well. Thank you for posting.

I've added a link to the video to my SM site as it has a good example of SM scratching.

Yes I thought that too. The video footage was a good example. Poor wee soul!

Just seen some clips on this (on tonight at 9pm BBC 1) it should be an interesting watch, but some of the clips look quite sad.

Ashley, thankyou for posting that link for those of us in the States. It is heartbreaking, but awareness and breeding away from these genetic issues is the key to diminishing health problems in the breed.

No problem. I'm just glad they worked! I'm sure the programme will be available online at some point as well, so you will be able to view it then.
