In the last 100 years they have been bred with the brachycephalic deformity to such an extreme that they no longer even have muzzles. In fact, some stupid breeder recently bred their "finest achievement," a pug with a concave muzzle: It's a young dog and already has constant eye discharge. Pugs used to look like this: That was only ~125 years ago. There are some breeders in Germany that are trying to restore the pug's size and muzzle back to 19th century standards: Sorry to poo poo the thread OP, I do like pugs, so keep posting pics of em I guess, I just like to SJW a bit on brachycephalic animal breeding because I think it's mean to the nice doggies.

ahh I love pugs but I could never own one because they are so unhealthy and I couldn't stand to see them suffer, but I'd have a restored pug in a heartbeat. The 125 year old version looks almost exactly like those pug-beagle hybrids that got popular a few years ago also, other goon favourite corgis are megafucked and often lose the use of their hind legs by age 7 because they by definition all suffer from congenital dwarfism and the associated health problems Fatkraken fucked around with this message at 18:56 on Dec 11, 2014 |

The discharge makes it look like the dog is weeping about being alive. I love me some punched-in-the-face dogs like Pugs and Bostons, but there needs to be a limit that allows the animals to still breathe. The restored Pug should become the new standard.

Of course it's weird and pointless but you'll pry the genetic abortions that are naturally unhealthy dog breeds out of the ~*pedigree dog fancier*~'s cold, dead fingers. At least making sure the animal can breathe without built-in asthma or hosed up legs is a fair compromise.

I rescued my pug from being a breeder in a puppy mill so I didn't support the pug-industrial complex. She's actually really healthy, her muzzle isn't that short so she doesn't snort much.

are pugs the ones where you have to stick your finger up their arse every week to empty their anal glands?

Fatkraken posted:are pugs the ones where you have to stick your finger up their arse every week to empty their anal glands? You need to do that with a lot of small breeds, but not nearly that often. You need to clean pugs' face wrinkles out every week. Some other breeds are worse than that, I know a bulldog whose wrinkles have to be cleaned out several times a day.

I've had more than one offleash Chihuahua run right up to me, growling and snarling at my shoe. The only two consistently mean dog breeds I've ever run into, and this is talking about trained housepets and not poorly-raised guard dog breeds that have gone into a psychotic rage from being neglected and tied to a tree, are Chihuahuas and Shih-Tzus.

And yes Pugs don't have a mean bone in their body Honorable mention to French Bulldogs, another animal that can't breathe but is incredibly sweet and hilarious to watch.

I mean just look at this! This is an animal whose ONLY desire in life is to make you smile, and put just a little bit of joy, laughter, and glad-tidings into your cold, black goon hearts. And you people are sitting here making sadposts about their faces being removed through selective breeding? How do you think that makes them feel!? Shame on you! Shame on you all!!

in case it's not obvious, the problem with having a short face is that the soft tissue doesn't shrink when the bone does. it still develops as the dog grows in the womb even when all the bony structures aren't. so all the stuff that should be fitting in a long face is shoved backwards because there's nowhere for it to go. and thats why short faced dogs can't breathe. hth

Many of the Ewoks seen in the background in Return of the Jedi were actually pugs. One of them was actually Jim Henson's pug named Indiana which gave Jim the inspiration for Chewbacca and the titular character in Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull
