“We’re hoping his passing reminds @UniversityOfGA just how irresponsible it is for them to be promoting unhealthy, breathing-impaired, flat-faced breeds

What does having a flat face have to do with it?

They can't breath properly and shite like that. Peta is a pain in the arse but they're right on this one.

Unfortunately, one of the most common issues with English bulldogs—and most dogs with characteristic “flat faces”—is difficulty breathing properly.

English bulldogs, French bulldogs and pugs are all considered to be a part of the brachycephalic (flat-faced) breed, which is prone to breathing problems.

In extreme cases, the breed can develop Brachycephalic airway syndrome (BAS), which is caused by upper airway abnormalities that are unique to the brachycephalic breed, says Dr. Megan Conrad, D.V.M., a veterinary advisor at Hello Ralphie, a telehealth site for pets.
