Hmm but can we breed that pesky "vaguely dog shaped" aspect out of pugs entirely? I'm talking perfectly spherical and gelatinous.

my dog is a red heeler and I think that means he's part dingo so he's extremely healthy. but for real he is just downright insolent and very difficult to train and it just makes me think I probably have 25 years ahead of me of butting heads with this drat dog.

my old lady had a stripper roommate in college and she had a Boston terrier that would sneeze its eyeball out every now and then but he would just kinda push it back in on the carpet so I guess it was no big deal

instead of good proper killing names like "murderface""smasher" or "ripper" you have pug champions named "droolface", "the underarchiver" or "the grim reeker" "Here comes "stone cold steve pawston", whose name is of course due to fact that he has been dead for 3 weeks, giving him a masssive advantage in this weeks battle grand mal. It looks like he pissed himself, that's gotta hurt."

Have a blue heeler mix who is very well behaved, best dog I've ever had, picked up a buddy for him, a "pure bred" one (looks like one on Road Warrior), he's a little nut job, literally bites my ankle and is a raging ball of energy. I like him but the little dude is crazy.

Ugh, pugs are nasty. I guess young ones are kinda cute, but it seems like every adult pug I see is obese and wheezing as it struggles to waddle along.  I don't like brachycephalic dogs in general, but I guess those are the ones I see most often.Wolf and pug:  Look at that! Look what we've done. Good job, us.

This is why I rescued my pug after she was a breeder in a puppy mill. At least I take good care of her so she'll never get fat.

A lot of airlines don't allow squish-faced dogs and cats to fly in the cargo hold because they die so much. I mean I think putting animals in the cargo hold is always terrible, but it's really something that squish-faced pets are so death prone that airlines are actually turning down money.

Ralp posted:Virtually any dog breed is fine with just one generation of out-breeding. The canine genome as a whole is richly diverse and hardy which is why mutts are so great. "Designer dogs" is actually a great concept, just a terrible implementation. is not this simple and mutts are not necessarily any healthier than a given purebred kill all pets imo

This is a good article about the problems with the English bulldog and other breeds. The UK's Kennel Club was pressured into revising the breed standards for the English bulldog, at least on paper. But the American Kennel Club had refused to make any changes as of late 2011 (when the article is from).quote:[A] 2010 British study ... reported that the typical bulldog lives only slightly longer than six years. “The bulldog is unique for the sheer breadth of its health problems,” ... “A typical breed will have one or two common problem areas. The bulldog has so many. When I first started working at Angell, the joke was that these dogs are a $5,000 check just waiting to happen. But the joke gets old fast, because many of these dogs are suffering.”

The worst breed as far as lifespan goes has to be the Dogue de Bordeaux.quote:While larger breeds of canines tend to have shorter life expectancy, the life expectancy of the Dogue is still shorter than even breeds of comparable or larger size.[3] According to data collected by the Dogue De Bordeaux Society of America, the average lifespan of the breed is 5 to 6 years.[4] A veterinary database in the UK showed similar figures.[5] In the American survey, the oldest dog in the record was 12 years old.[4] The Society is actively recording dogs that are 7 years old or older to celebrate the longer-lived dogs.[6]

what should be done is responsible breeders with money and knowledge should try to improve the breeds and remove the things that make the dogs unhealthy so they live longer healthier lives

The best hosed up dog imo is American bullies, they started crossing english bulldogs with pits/staffs/mastiffs/bostons/frenchies in the 80's and went "ok cool lets see just how bad we can gently caress this up" and now they have a standard and breed club recognition lmao       instead of going "no" the UKC has been like "ok looks like a good dog we will recognize them" because hte world is a barren hellscape They always have names like "Toadline" and "Freakshow" lmao

If your dog doesn't closely resemble a wild dog then you are human garbage. But you don't want them too close to a wild dog because then they are crazy. There is a happy medium.

Which is true of most working breeds; show dogs have absolutely nothing in common with their working counterparts 90% of the time and none of the dogs at westminster or crufts could fulfill their working purpose and they are a laughing stock to everyone who does working lines of whatever breed Here's an example of a working Basset:  Still has some conformational issues; but its dwarfism exists for a reason and is at a moderate enough level that it should still function for a normal working lifespan. Compared to a conformation (show) bred basset:  which speaks for its loving self Here's a UKC conformation bred APBT, which is my idiot breed:  VS a "real," working APBT:  The general publicis taught the kennel clubs and show breeders are the be all end all of ~purebred dogs~ when irl they are the dog equivalent of pageant moms and everyone who actually keeps and breeds purebred dogs for their working purposes thinks they are loving insane.

All the AKC dog shows are just painful for me to watch, just about every one of the dogs shown is visibly deformed from excessive inbreeding. People pay thousands of bucks for these sickly, warped genetic trashcan dogs that are pretty much guaranteed to have horribly expensive and tragic health problems down the road. At least your typical street mutt has some chance of not being a basket case. lol at the "designer dog" bullshit though, what the hell Ralp don't fall for that horseshit

Me ex gf had a seven year old Basset, one day i was talking to her on the phone and heard in the background the most horrible sound of wailing that i can't really even describe, it was like some creature was being tortured to death. I asked her wtf, she said it was her dog. The next day I asked her what happened after she had got back from the vet, and she told me the dog had bone spurs on her spine that were pinching her spine nerve, and that that was extremely common in Basset Hounds. They couldn't do surgery, she just had to be on strong pain meds for the rest of her life.
