I have 2 dogs, one of them is a pug. I can't understand how a pug could come from a wolf! What in Gods name made someone want to have a dog with a face so smashed that it can't breath without "snorting"? I just don't understand that. I love her, I would not give her up for anything in the world, she's my little bundle of goofiness, but what on earth made someone want to breed for a smashed, unhealthy look that the pug carries? I can't really do much with her outside because she's just not built for much running, extreme cold, heat, humidity and the list goes on. I just don't understand why a breed would be created with such health and breathing problems to begin with, either dog or cat. From what I have heard and read when I was studying up on the breed before I adopted my pug, they rarely even have natural births...they have to have c-sections because of the way they are built. That's VERY un-natural and sad. Humans sure have messed with animals for the "perfect look" havent they? Anything from hairless mutations, extreme size, smashed faces, to surgical mutations (docked tails and cropped ears of certain dog breeds). I just don't get it.
