I love how the more we interbreed dogs that would have never mixed naturally in nature due to their natural environments, the more genetic issues come up. It's kinda fucked up when you think about it (all aspects of animal trafficking); people are breading different dogs that wouldn't come together naturally in the wild, for purely aesthetic reasons, resulting in lineages of dogs who suffer & live with predisposed genetic ailments that could be as bad as thyroid issues, bone issues, and degenerative nerve diseases. No 1 curr about that tho, it's socially acceptable even though they are beings that feel pain lol.

I kinda think dog-breeding as a hobby or job is weird when you actually take a step-back & think about it lol.
