    I don’t think we should ban breeds, but that we should at least take steps to undo some of the damage we’ve done. There’s no reason that our furry little friends should have to suffer the health issues that we’ve caused through our selective breeding of them.

      I agree completely. Much as I love pugs and bulldogs for being adorable, I’d never get one myself. I’d feel too bad about the inbreeding abuse to not think about it every day even as I’d love my wheezing lil’ buddy…
