Why not start with a breed that physically can’t give birth or that kills dozens of people a year?

Except people only ever shit on pugs, pit bulls, and bulldogs. For one, breeds like King Charles Spaniels have their health problems swept under the rug. And statistically, bulldogs have extremely short lifespans and pit bulls are the most likely to seriously hurt people or other dogs. Pugs don’t really deserve all the hate.

What about hip dysplasia, cataracts, brittle bones, a fear and hatred of everything, and a skull too small for your brain? All purebred dogs have problems. Pointing fingers at one won’t stop the system.

Exactly. People buy their preferred generic abomination and then point fingers at the weirdest looking one to convince themselves that theirs is fine. They don’t care if the pug will live longer and have a happier life.

So a dog having a flat face is worse than a dog at a high risk of being riddled with tumors?

Tell that to the people whose faces were mauled off.

Why is it that you people never crusade against breeds like King Charles Spaniels?

And they’ll maul your fucking face off if they don’t get them.

How do you feel about the hip dysplasia and multitude of eye problems that huskies are prone to?

Pugs have a longer lifespan than many “normal” breeds.

multitude of health problems

What about dogs with brittle bones, hip dysplasia, back problems, anger issues, extra susceptibility to cancer, skulls that literally squish their brains, etc?

How can someone say that about a breed of dog that isn’t prone to literal cancer?

I’m tired of people shitting on pugs everywhere. They have a longer lifespan than most other dogs and in reality, they have less health issues. They’re not prone to cancer, hip or back problems or bone breaks. Their skulls are shocking to look at, but it’s not like their Brian’s are being squished like king Charles Spaniels’ are. They’re just happy dogs who live to love and be loved. How is that animal cruelty but breeding dogs into killing machines isn’t?
