    Unless you’re putting your animal in shows, why tf would anyone care about having a pure breed? Get a mutt that resembles what you want, and you should be good to go (and have a healthier animal).

        That’s kind of niche tbh and about the only dirty of breeding that sounds healthy to me. Not based on impossible aesthetic standards, I mean.

          it’s also not true. hypoallergenic dogs/cats are just marketing nonsense designed to appeal to rich weirdos who want to spend five figures on dog because they think nothing has any value if they pay less than that.

            Aha. Well at least the idea behind it is somewhat better, didn’t know about the feasibility.
