I think they have hip issues maybe? Seems like pretty small potatoes compared to extreme physical handicap.

Most of them will have hip issues and develop cancers, but it seems small stuff compared to how screwed pugs are

edit: it also seems to me that the whole reason pugs were made that way is so we can laugh about how pathetic they look, which is kinda cruel on itself

They're so dumb, they're either little balls of happiness or tiny little clouds of confusion. There's usually not a lot happening in between those two states.

But suddenly ....

I just want to be nice to pugs all the time to apologize for the horror their genetics put them through. :smith:

There's a growing effort among pug breeders to reverse-breed the extremely stunted snout of the modern pug to a form similar to the breed pre-1800s:

They're called "retromops."

That is definitely something we need more of, reversing the effects of pure breeding to something more healthy

I've been looking at maybe getting an Olde English Bulldogge [sp?]

They are what happens if someone says, "hey, lets have an English bulldog that doesn't breath like the pink monster in the DOS version of Doom"

When my brother still lived with us, he had a single cat he rescued from the side of the road as a kitten named Fiyero (Fiyero is now one of 5 cats in his own house with his wife). Ironically, Fiyero loved to sit in the shower to relax as long as it was dry. As soon as the tiniest spritz of water came out, he'd bolt through the curtain like he saw the devil and wouldn't come back into the room until it was turned off.

Did you never see Marc Anthony and Pussyfoot? Cat got baked into a cookie because of that drat dog.

At least I think that's what happened, been a while.
