Pugs are not “so cute” because they’re ugly. They are deformed from countless generations of in-breeding and genetic manipulation by horrible horrible humans and are in constant pain, cannot breathe, and have countless other physical ailments. They should not exist in their current form and it makes me sad for the animal whenever I see one, and immediately lose all respect for the owner for furthering such a travesty.
The only way that it’ll become better is if the standard for the pug changes. The UK kennel club has updated it’s standard to include a healthier head and muzzle shape. Unfortunately the American Kennel Club has not yet done so. The pugs that are presented at Westminster are sickening.
I also take beef with the awful roached back of the German Shepherd show standard.
