 Complaints by the CKCSC and Michael Randall, a German Shepherd Dog handler who appeared in brief footage, were not upheld.The Kennel Club complaints upheld in the provisional findings that BBC had contested earlier was the unfair representation of Kennel Club geneticist Jeff Sampson's views and lack of an opportunity to respond for the Crufts champion cover-up claim.While the provisional finding stated that there was "some unfair treatment" of the Kennel Club, the released finding acknowledges that Sampson's views were misrepresented but states that as a whole, the Kennel Club was not treated unfairly.
