      Under dangerous dogs?

      I assume you mean due to their health issues. Cant disagree. But I think it would be a Heck of a lot more complex to define breeds that suffer.

        There are already dogs banned because they suffer. The white Doberman is one of them. They’re not banned in the USA, but they’re banned in Europe.

              Well my chihuahua has spent the day trying to catch a fly in my narrow boat. Pretty sure the fly is laughing at him.

              Nah. I am assuming we have met a real life tom thumb. Or maybe the borrowers. I mean from that angle a pug must seem pretty gruesome.

              But atm even if they exist. Pretty sure they can’t vote. So parliment will not care.

          I guess a Bully XL could choke on a pug while swallowing it ? Is that the danger pugs present you had in mind ?
