A beautiful English Springer has just won best sporting pupapotamus. The hideous hairless terrior made its debut in the terriors group eariler. Was hideous. Mary Carillo doing some coverage. Never know what can happen when a bunch of eccentric humans and beautiful pups get on the floor together.

Comments like this are uneducated. You drink milk from particular cow breeds. You eat pork from particular pig breeds. There are many different breeds for all domesticated animals including sheep, goats, horses, as well as cats and dogs. There are some unhealthy dog breeds, but breeding dogs is not, in and of itself, immoral.

Actually I don't do either of those things, and intentionally breeding deformities and handicaps like flat faces (that have gotten progressively flatter and worse for breathing) because of consumer demand for that look is ethically reprehensible. Yes, it is immoral. Entirely.
