Howard Stern used to talk about his bull dog and all of her problems, and how because of breeding over centuries it's a breed that really should be allowed to go extinct, because those dogs often have such serious medical needs. But obviously the ones in shelters should be given a good life.

Selective breeding really should be banned. In dogs and horses and a lot of other species, humans really have messed with a lot of other species genetics just so they look nicer for competitions, unfortunately to the detriment of the animals.
