like Chihuahuas, dogs do not deserve this. they threw their lot in with us and we haven’t done them right.

We don’t deserve dogs.

The AKC is a terrible organization that promotes asthetic breed standards over health. They set the norms and expectations for breeders.

There is an incredible movement happening primarily in western Europe to breed out brachycephalic traits from pugs both in pure bred lines and by crossing in longer snout breeds. These are known as retropugs or retromops.

Pugs are actually not fruits at all

FINE, “low hanging culinary vegetables”.

Actually, that does sound more accurate.

Is this implying pugs are some kind of hideous monstrosity that spits in the face of god? When it’s our fault they’re like that?
Show threadickplantJan 26
Oh, it’s totally our fault. I will never argue against that.

its not “our” fault. i never wanted those creatures. its “their” fault; those who wanted the pugs and those who made them
