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

It’s gonna do the same thing these types of regulations did to parts of Cali

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?

My father is very cheap

Get a job

Gotta spend other peoples money in socialism

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki kek, how's that the solution?

It's not that we can't afford wifi, it's that my father doesn't want to spend lots of money on wifi for the holiday house
