people that do that needs to get thrown in the dumpster long before any pet get thrown out
and it says everything you ever need to know about the so-called owner
My Aunt did find a poor puppy that had been beaten and left in a garbage bin
Poor puppy grew up with all sorts of mental scars lol
Didn't the UK recently ban the sell of puppies?
Like last week
huh, I heard about it yesterday on the radio
🤷🏿
Guess there wont be a big purebreed market in the uk soon.
Good. Keep that a hobby.
No it will just kill the whole thing and pure breeds will disappear from the uk. Pure breeds cost money to set up, properly breed, prep for adoption, ect.
At levels far beyond your inbreed walmart puppy.
It a reason why a pure bread from a respected breeder will set you back easy 500-600£
don't pure breeds usually have health problems? that'll set you back in too in the long run
Depending much on the breeders. Some serious ones will go all out on making sure that the inbreeding is kept to an absolute minimum. But as always when you have people that are after easy money you will get problems
@AlanPowell most great breeders account for breed health problems and screen all potential breeder dogs for this.
Hence part of the cost
I see
Californian here
Re-housing centers turned from places where anyone could get a dog or cat so long as they had a home and the ability to buy food and supplies to these ultra-exclusive places that require months worth of interviews where only the richest with the biggest homes and incomes get the desired breeds.
When you decrease the supply, competition for the now much-scarcer resources increases in turn.
arent there some breeds that just have inherent health problems, such as english bulldogs? @Goblin_Slayer_Floki
Pugs have tons of problems
Like becoming Nazis
(And also being unable to breathe)
@Christopher Try leaving the city for once lol
I'm sure rural shelters don't cost nearly as much as ones in the cities.
@Christopher pugs are a freaking crime against nature
poor creatures
@AlanPowell most of that is due to the inbreeding. Some breeders fine less invread strains to weed that out some. But yes some will always have some helth problems while others its just dependent on the mating. Like german shepards
Pugs used to look quite different but the whole breed was corrupted
interesting, how do you know so much about dogs?
General interest when i was younger, and wifes family are dog people who generally have purebreeds.
Her grams has a pure king charles cavalier, and her aunt and uncle have had many pure breed dovermans.
cool
You even vape, bruh?
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
haha
Damn, I wish I had enough internet to watch that. Looks absolutely hilarious
I thought internet was a human right in Europe? Did your overlords not ration you enough bandwidth this month?
