everyone meet my foster pup, Leon! heās looking for his forever home, so if youāre in the North Texas area and looking to adopt, message me!
Do you think brachycephalic dogs are fine?
Letās all just take a long look at the following two images. The top one is how a healthy dog should look.Ā
Brachycephalic breeds such as in the second image include dogs such as the French Bulldog, English Bulldog, Pug, Pekingese, Shihtzu, Boxers, and more. You may have heard smack about them previously or not at all, or you may be fully on the brachycephalic bandwagon still. I just want to refresh everyoneās memories a bit on why these are such horrible breeds and why they should not be continue to be bred. I have seen, every day for almost 3 weeks straight, dozens of deformed brachycephalic dogs being AIād, being monitored during pregnancy, and having puppies delivered by C-section. I am sick of seeing this, and so this post is born.
Brachycephalic dogs commonly (and by commonly I mean almost every single brachycephalic dog) suffer from a syndrome called Brachycephalic Airway Syndrome. This syndrome involves the following, to varying degrees:
1. Narrow nostrils and overgrown bones within the nasal cavities (or, in other words, normal sized bones in a horribly shortened face) which obstructs airflow.
2. A trachea (i.e. windpipe) that is too small.
3. Everted laryngeal saccules (stage 1 of laryngeal collapse*) which can obstruct airflow.
4. A soft palate that is too long and obstructs airflow within the larynx.
These deformities translate into the cute, snorting, snoring, wheezing, overheating dogs that we all dote on. However, as if thatās not enough, these dogs can also have a multitude of other problems such as enlarged tonsils, vomiting and acid reflux, *full collapse of the larynx, jaw malformations resulting in dental malformations, skin disease, eye disease, heat intolerance, and inter-vertebral disc disease. They often require corrective surgery at a young age, and even then are not going to be completely healthy.
In other words, theyāve got it real bad. And people are still breeding them even when they are showing clear signs of anatomical and heritable abnormalities.
These dogs suffer unnecessarily just by being alive. Please donāt support their breeding, and donāt talk about them like theyāre normal and healthy. They are not.
If you are taking requests right now (apologies if you arenāt) - a palette called āI love my catā? Thank you! I love your blog! š

Person: God, I hate fake people.
Me, a bundle of straw tied into a vaguely human shape: Shit, are they talking about me�
i want you all to know that there is an artist (carmen papalia) who, after he started using a white cane, assembled a 12 foot long white cane and began using it in downtown vancouver. the length of the cane made it functionally useless as a device and the only purpose it served was making him an obstacle for sighted people. dare i say⦠2019 goals
therapist to sighted patient: long cane isnt real and it cant hurt you
carmen papalia:
[id: a dimly lit photo of carmen papalia using his 12 foot ālong caneā piece. he walks casually behind it. the cane takes up the majority of both the photograph and the sidewalk.]
Okay I went to a conference where this guy was a keynote and heās so fucking cool. Heās done a ton of art around disability rights. The twelve-foot cane is really cool, but here are some of my other favourites:
From the series on replacing his cane, this is one where he replaced his cane with a megaphone and would stand at intersections repeatingĀ āI canāt seeā until somebody would stop and help him cross the street
Another cane replacement, this time replacing it with a high school marching band who would change the music depending on if there was something in the way or not.
A museum intervention where he got people at the MET to go through the museum with their eyes closed and experiencing touching things heād gotten permission to touch (the floor in this image) and just exploring a visual art museum blind.
The Blind Field Shuffle, in which he has dozens of people form a conga line behind him with their eyes closed and leads them on a blind tour of the city - literally the blind leading the blind.
Wish I could find a better photo, but this is a museum gallery he curated where the works are almost at floor height, making them accessible to children, little people, and people in wheelchairs, but requiring abled people to bend down or sit on the floor in order to see them properly.
In short, this man is amazing and I love his work.
ā¦ā¦okay, that last one is my absolute favorite
I was just WAITING for the cat and I was not disappointed
When my daughter asks me why I named her Rhony Iāll just show her this video
I love hereditary
all 5 of them are having a completely different experience and conversation
This is AMAZING! š
HOW???
