Please, please, please, please, please vaccinated your dog. Please. I beg you. If you love them. If you care about them. For your dog’s own sake, please vaccinate them.

I like that they chose a picture of a pug for this article. If these people really gave a shit about the health of their pets, they wouldn’t choose one that was bred with health problems.
To be fair, some pugs are rescues.
Good point. I already try to remember that when I see dogs with
croppeddocked tails.All of the dogs I’ve ever had have been mutts, but I only ever adopted from a rescue or a shelter. Those are the only dogs that should be adopted and breeders should be stopped. My mother bought a Chinese Crested from a breeder and I was so pissed off at her. She’s a really sweet dog, but that should not be encouraged.
I don’t know about most dog breeds, but I do know that if you buy an aussie or blue heeler for actual work (and not because they’re the ‘it’ dog of the moment, don’t even get me started on that), it’s beneficial for them to have docked tails.
They’re used for herding cattle, and otherwise they run the same risks as a superhero with a cape. Best case scenario, they get it stepped on and severely injured; worst case, they get pinned and trampled.
My pug was a stray, I gave him a home. I don’t feel badly about that. All my pugs have been rescues because people don’t understand what caring for a pug is like.
You shouldn’t feel bad. You did an awesome thing!
Here he is singing me the song of his people.

Thanks for sharing! I love it!
They really have wonderful personalities even if they shouldn’t be bred. There’s nobody funnier.
Mine is quite agile and exercise tolerant and has fairly regular breathing, and he’s really tall and long. I’m not saying healthy, he is diabetic, but he’s very active even for a senior and likes long walks…
