Don't see the disagreement there.
Breeds like English Bulldogs have health issues. Not all have severe health issues. But they are there. I owned 2 of them, and they came from quality lines, I do my home work. But no matter if you get the healthiest one, they cannot breathe like a dog with a normal nose. A xray will explain why.
I still love them, though, and so do many other people.
My point was, many people easily jump on the wagon of saying this or that isn't right. Unless it hits to close to home. Its easy to say we should only breed what is strong and could survive in the wild. But really, what do we breed that could? Yet, we love our pets and livestock. I can't imagine life without them.
Also easy to say people that aren't perfect shouldn't have children, but really, where does that stop? People with obvious genetic defects? Hidden ones? Traits?
All I'm saying, its not really black and while. There is a lot of grey.
I have to say, I really like how everyone is stating opinions respectfully. This is how it should be. We don't all have to agree, but our love for those animals is what we all share, and this place and its members are so great to share it with
Whether we agree or respectfully disagree
