Best jaws anywhere in the world.

These people need to be arrested and [...] put in rescue homes.

Oh they don't use those services. They dump them on a side road when they get sick.

I read the monkey torture investigation by the BBC recently and I hate humans so much.

So is Kentucky and they seem to be doing alright.

Like these ones being bred by an irresponsible backyard breeder? Yes.

This is why you need to research your breeder--good ones put a lot of time and money into avoiding inbreeding. They do things like cooperate with each other to 'borrow' male dogs from one another or even going so far as to buy sperm from abroad and have the female artificially inseminated. They also keep careful records of lineage to help avoid accidental inbreeding.

But if you get a purebred from some random person or rescue, then yeah, it's likely been inbred and not had the various health and genetic screenings that you would get from a good breeder.

Edit: For personal anecdote, I should share that the breeder I am going through for my next purebred puppy thought she had one for me with this litter, but he started developing health problems around 8 weeks old, so she decided she is not willing to sell / adopt him out until and unless he doesn't have any serious health problems. She's clearly very attached to him and it sounds like she wants to keep him regardless. She has already spent thousands of dollars trying to figure out what's wrong with him, including expensive genetic testing.

And this is why the good breeders charge exorbitant amounts for their dogs.

Yep. My mom's Chinese Crested is the result of a mating between son and mother, so she got it for free. Amazingly, she's a very pretty and very sweet dog with no health problems to speak of.

I'm against the whole purbred dog thing, but at least my mom gave one a good home.

They can be, respectable breeders will usually do it outside of their dog's own gene pool (mating them with another owner's dog that has the same desired qualities), but there are definitely breeders that keep it within the gene pool in order to maximize the desired genes being expressed.

Yep.

These are the kind of people that shoot their dog and dump it in a quarry, they don't care.

Parvovirus is going to kill them way before the heartworms have a chance

Nope, I think they're going for Death Eaters

I've known a dozen or so Danes, and I'd say 8-10 is more typical.

Just make sure they rest after eating and they'll be happy a long time.

So is parvo

Looking into it yeah. Someone is helping me.

You know.... you know.

Weren't we supposed to die from our contaminated blood a couple years ago? Wonder when that'll come around...

They love ivermectin so much too.

You're sweet. And don't worry, I'm looking into reporting this.
