So, there's this Sunday NY Times essay about "designer" dogs--some new cross-breeds, like "Puggles" (Pug/Beagle mix) and "Boggles" (Pug/Boston) and some other non-pug mixes, etc.
It really brought to light how over-bred pugs (pure pugs) in particular have become; so much so, in fact, that the poor, loaf-like dears can't even SCREW without human intervention, and it's really quite a bizarrely fascinating, amusing, involved and ultimately pathetic scenario.
They start by bringing the bitch into heat, whether it's her time or not (that, right there, is weird), and then they trot the stud over, who takes one whiff of the hot mama and, eyes buggin' and tongue lollin', attempts to mount her, and this is where the fun really begins. Since they've been bred to be totally blocky with stubby legs, they really can't, uh..."connect," as it were, so as the stud nears, um, "completion," he is helpfully finished off and the contents (paltry, from what I understand) are then collected in a baggie.
Seems to me we've hit a collective new low as a species when we have to jerk off a pug.
The rest, well, it's something along the lines of inserting the collected contents into the bitch and then, well, digitally stimulating her (I guess she has to get SOMETHING out of the experience), and then it's finally over (I'm not sure how the denoument is actually DETERMINED, if she has the pug version of The Big 'O' or if it's timed or what) and everyone--pugs and owners--all settle down into a happy, post-non-coital afterglow and smoke cigarettes. It wouldn't surprise me if the owners actually asked the pugs if it was good for them, and frankly, I'm not sure the pugs would know any different. Which is pretty sad.
It's too weird. As anyone who knows me knows, I adore the breed....but can I really support artificial pug f*cking?

Oh I needed a good laugh!! "we have reached a low when we have to jerk off a pug."?!?!?! That's, as they say, RICH!
So when the paradigm collapses, and pugs are left "in the wild," does this mean, well, we shouldn't hold our breaths for any forest or foothill-based crossbreeding with coyotes or wolves?
