I was just watching this video.. Its a headliner on aol news. Its very sad and interesting at the same time. I knew that purebred dogs have changed but wow, I didnt relize it was that much. The part about the "show" german shepard and the "working" german shepard shocked me the most, how and why can the show dog have legs like that and it be ok, its just cruel. My heart was breaking for the cavalier, I was actually interested in buying one in the future, but not anymore. I think it will be awhile before I purchase a purebred anything. I will stick with my mutts, its stated in that video that there is links to cross breds being healthier than purebreds because of all the inbreeding that is being done and has been done for years... purebreds are being genetically ruined...
I know that there are a select few that actually do care about the animals they are breeding and put the time, money,love and effort that is needed to keep the standard but That video was a huge eye opener and I have very little faith in the "purebred" world anymore...
