It seems incredible that at one time the Bull Terrier was a handsome, athletic dog. Somewhere along its journey to a mutated skull and thick abdomen the bull terrier also picked up a number of other maladies like supernumerary teeth and compulsive tail-chasing.

The Basset Hound has gotten lower, has suffered changes to its rear leg structure, has excessive skin, vertebra problems, droopy eyes prone to entropion and ectropion and excessively large ears.

A shorter face means a host of problems. The modern Boxer not only has a shorter face but the muzzle is slightly upturned. The boxer – like all bracecyphalic dogs – has difficulty controlling its temperature in hot weather, the inability to shed heat places limits on physical performance. It also has one of the highest cancer rates.

The English bulldog has come to symbolize all that is wrong with the dog fancy and not without good reason; they suffer from almost every possible disease. A 2004 survey by the Kennel Club found that they die at the median age of 6.25 years (n=180). There really is no such thing as a healthy bulldog. The bulldog’s monstrous proportions make them virtually incapable of mating or birthing without medical intervention.

The Dachshund used to have functional legs and necks that made sense for their size. Backs and necks have gotten longer, chest jutted forward and legs have shrunk to such proportions that there is barely any clearance between the chest and floor. The dachschund has the highest risk of any breed for intervertebral disc disease which can result in paralysis; they are also prone to achondroplastic related pathologies, PRA and problems with their legs.

The German Shepherd Dog is also a breed that is routinely mentioned when people talk about ruined breeds; maybe because they used to be awesome. In Dogs of All Nations, the GSD is described as a medium-sized dog (25 kg /55 lb), this is a far cry from the angulated, barrel-chested, sloping back, ataxic, 85-pounders (38 kg) we are used to seeing in the conformation ring. There was a time when the GSD could clear a 2.5 meter (8.5 ft) wall; that time is long gone.
http://i.imgur.com/sTdHH3w.jpg

The Pug is another extreme brachycephalic breed and it has all the problems associated with that trait – high blood pressure, heart problems, low oxygenation, difficulty breathing, tendency to overheat, dentition problems, and skin fold dermatitis. The highly desirable double-curl tail is actually a genetic defect, in more serious forms it leads to paralysis.
http://i.imgur.com/AKs9ebM.jpg

Once a noble working dog, the modern St. Bernard has been oversized, had it’s faced squished in, and bred for abundant skin. You will not see this type of dog working, they can’t handle it as they quickly overheat. The diseases include entropion, ectropion, Stockard’s paralysis, hemophilia, osteosarcoma, aphakia, fibrinogen deficiency.

That is why most real working dogs: the cattle dogs, sheep dogs, and sled dogs all pretty much look similar with really only coat and color being different and a variation in size.

The modern show dogs are all highly inbreed and not as healthy. Compare an English Bulldog to an American Bulldog. They come from the same root stock but the American is much healthier due to being breed for work rather than look.

The bulldog and dachshund entries are true. My Mom was into dog shows when I was a kid and teen. Though the breed she showed and bred wasn't nearly as bad as some due to the breed almost dying out in the 1900s to the point they had to mix in some terrier to keep from massive inbreeding.

Even with this quite recent influx of new genes, the breed was still susceptible to genetic conditions like seizures and bad teeth.

Meh. They have always been selectively bred so it isn't like some pristine version is being ruined from the original way nature intended. It does suck that many of them seem to have negative health traits though.

There is more than one breed of German Shepherd. There is a show breed and a work breed.

Get the work breed. They don't have the bad hips or overly arched back or generally any of the maladies associated with German shepherd. You can't find one with a proper show 'saddle' on their back, but they're beautiful. Also, they're bigger. My old man has one and it's head is like a bowling ball.

Speaking of dogs taking a shit, Dodger, the dog in my Av. cracks me up. He's the only dog I've ever seen that doesn't want anyone watching when he takes a dump. If anyone is around when it's time for him to do his business he will go behind a tree or bush or anything thats in the area and peeking around it at you when he's dropping a log. The funniest thing I've seen him do is finding a patch of grass and weeds thats a little taller than him. He'll back up into it just so his head is sticking out and take a dump while watching to see if anyone is coming too close. It's fucking hilarious. The second he's done he'll take off running full blast with this big ole grin on his face like "HELL YEA" that was great.ROFL

I got my Boxer in 1991 and he survived till 2004. He was the most beautiful dog. People would stop me on the street to ask what kind of dog he was. He also was very BULL HEADED! He destroyed a 6 month old couch and a door. He chewed my wallet numerous times and would shit from one end of the house to the other. Bit two people. The biting was not his fault the people were messing around with him. I loved that dog but would never get another one. I now have a small breed mutt. Complete opposite dog.

They're not bulldogs. Assholes like that have selectively bred dogs that don't fit the breed standard. They've bred them like that because they think that's what they're supposed to look like. They're breeding health problems into the breed. Those XXXL bullies, Razor's Edge, etc all are creating problems by breeding malformed dogs like that (hip and shoulder dysplasia) they also are starting to have issues cooling themselves (like English bulldogs).

Those fuckers need to have their nuts taken off.

Just saw a new born female we are thinking about getting, just born Monday. We were wanting one colored like her and she was born on my daughters birthday. Seems like a fit.

One for each kid still in the home lol.


We sure love those guys. My son just runs crazy with them. It's a free for all, then they all end up in a pile asleep lol.

My female is in heat and we are keeping them apart and they are absolutely hating it. They have been together almost every minute since he was six weeks old.
