Our UGAs have shown no sign of having problems breathing. Guess if you had your way all bulldogs would be destroyed since they MIGHT have health issues. Better add Goldens to your list since most die from cancer before the age of 8. And greyhounds too.
UGA X lived a very long life for his breed. Like all his forebears he received the best vet care imaginable. He was healthy. All except one of his forebears (who had heart issues) lived a normal life span. There is no dog anywhere who has a more pampered life.
He is the most popular mascot in college football. He does inspire jealousy though. Some schools actually have to resort to bad tempered steers.
I’d be ill tempered too if I was drugged up and exposed to a loud stadium. I’d probably be so upset I’d attack dogs and people standing nearby too. Poor beast. He deserves better

No, nut there is no doubt that the inbreeding of the dogs have taken a toll on their health. There is nothing wrong with admitting that. The lifespan is short for the dogs. I know they are treated very well, and kudos for that. But they are not a healthy breed anymore.

This is what they should look like:






I love Uga, but the inbreeding has hurt their health.


Here are pics of Uga from years ago. Look at the difference in waistline, etc.



Again. Love Uga, but they need to concentrate more on getting the breed healthy and less on getting a pure white coat. Just my opinion.
