    I know this might be an unpopular opinion depending on who is online, but 99.9% of pugs and almost every bulldog should be euthanized because allowing them to exist is animal cruelty.

    I applaud the efforts of ethical breeders trying to return them to healthy animals, but anyone who buys an animal who was bred to suffer for life should experience the worst kind of genital mutilation for the genitals they have.

      I think the existing pugs and bulldogs don’t suffer enough to appreciate an euthanasy - it takes a lot to override the natural will to live and the survival instinct. I suggest to euthanize all the irresponsible breeders instead.

        Can we add the people who know these animals have health issues, but still buy them despite of that?

      Imho not unpopular at all. Anyone with a working common sense agrees with that. And i hope the ban on breeding those poor creatures comes soon in my country.

      e.g. the Netherlands already banned it. Absolut correct decision.

        I take it you haven’t been following American news lately?
