    Even if it’s a rescue? Maybe breeding pugs (without trying to reverse the damage done to them) is pretty shitty, but I could see rescuing one is fine. I mean, what’s the other option, killing them all?

      Fair, but it still fuels the market. Somebody rescues one. Somebody else sees it and wants one but can’t find a rescue or doesn’t want a rescue, and goes to a breeder.

          That’s a good compromise, but the dogs all have to undergo surgery. The breed needs to go somehow.

        I’m pretty sure that if someone wanted a pug, seeing one person who did a rescue wouldn’t be the tipping point.

        And there are people who are trying, through breeding, to reverse the damage done to these poor animals.

        So yeah, I think there are ethical ways to own a pug.

          Dog breeds go through trends just like anybody else. Your fav valuable has a pug? You might want a pug. Maybe not you, but that’s how trends work. The aristocracy tells you what to like. That’s the whole reason they exist in the first place.

            And there’s a trend to un fuck up pugs through breeding now, but you think that’s unethical as well because that’s still owning a pug.
