    This could've been avoidable if they were bred for health and not for looking like a dachsund.

    The government shouldn't always step in but when too many people are acting too moronic at once and they can't be arrested something needs to happen or we end up with fricked up dogs that sad people keep pumping more money into only for them to live miserable lives where they can't even go outside without taking pain meds.

      Honestly breeder associations are evil. They pretend to care about genetic quality but they should put a lot more effort into avoiding physical issues over maintaining a specific look. The focus should be on the genetic quality of the dog. Loyalty, intelligence, strength, a specific purpose like bird hunting or rabbit hunting or pit fighting created perfect breeds naturally. Then breeder associations fricked it up by focusing on looks.

        Some do. The Field Dog Stud Book focuses on hunting dogs. Since it’s a small registry compared to the AKC or UKC and don’t give a flying frick about show aesthetics they focus on working ability and athleticism and any genetic flaw gets found out and cheap puppies become completely unmarketable. Fun fact every intact animal registered with them is banned from LA because they didn’t want to cuck for a bunch of health testing that would raise the cost of puppies by $1000 when the bad genetics get weeded out via market pressure anyway.

        Scale and show/pet focus destroy the breeds and clubs. This type of legislation is useless garbage that’s going to be abused and result in everyone owning mutts and pitbulls.

      Dog breeding is controlled by people because otherwise we get attacked by wild wolves
      Peoples dog breeding needs to be controlled by a democratic state because otherwise you use breeding as a form of demonstrating dominance and make dogs fricked up just because you dislike wolves
      In the end this is because dogs are less important than people. I like dogs, but no way would they be likable if we didn't employ selective breeding, no animal would be except something tiny and totally out of our niche, so they have to stay this way.

      Treating people like dogs is saying they are less important than the one controlling the breeding, devaluing humanity, and inevitably causing great harm.

        Only halfway correct. Halfhearted eugenics like making the German shepherd have a specific stance for a breeder competition is bad. But there's a reason the police uses German shepherds. They've also been bred to be intelligent and loyal and strong and active and dangerous. If they keep focusing on those threads the hip dysplasia will go away naturally and we'll get super dogs. Yes there will be failures, see the smashed pitbull thread. But police dogs prove you wrong. They're better dogs.

    Humans with known genetic deformities or diseases which severely impact quality of life should be made sterile at birth. This is a very simple thing we should have been doing since the discovery of genetic disease and safe methods of sterilization. Sadly humans are fricking moronic though so we don't do it.

      The problem is every time this is attempted it gets political. Last century, women who were political dissidents were sterilized under nazi-inspired policies and on the commie side they were declared insane and locked away for life. Imagine losing your nuts or spending life in prison because you’re not an extrovert or break from the prescribed culture. Imagine all those insane polturds who call you mentally ill for owning a pet before you have 5 children and being anything but a catholic stamping sterilization orders.

      These are the things americans cling to their guns for, because other americans have done all of it! Hitler was inspired by american eugenics program, none of which improved IQ or health. Selective breeding ought not apply to humans. Popsci gays say “just this and this and this” but real life isnt a sciam article where genetic testing is cheap and easy

        I assume you have a source for this? Saying Hitler was inspired by America’s eugenics program also seems rather dubious given at the time a lot of western countries and even beyond had Eugenics officially enshrined within their health laws, sterilization law in particular. The Swiss Canton of Waadt passed a law saying the mentally ill could be sterilized in 1928. Denmark did similar in 1929, Norway in 1934, Sweden and Finland in 1935, Estonia in 1936, and Iceland in 1938. Cuba, Lithuania, Latvia, Czecho-Slovakia, Yugoslavia, Latvia, Hungary and Mexico also had them. None of it had anything to do with politics. Unless you want to say they were all sterilizing their respective dissidents.

          >"mental illness" meaning generic terms like feebleminded, promiscuous, immoral, and antisocial
          Let's say the current state starts a eugenics program. Are you a transphobe, homophobe, or racist? Are you an introvert? Do you have fewer than 12 close friends? Do you have political views that significantly deviate from accepted morality? Were you against taking the covid vaccine? Do you believe it would be acceptable to murder any state officials? Off with your nuts. ALL of those are understood to be heritable "mental illness" - prejudiced behavior is heritable and le bad, introversion is le bad and predicts school shootings, you have oppositional defiant disorder and sociopathy. That's how it works. Every single time.

          Eugenics is breeding people like dogs. And like hicks breeding dogs, it does inevitably go as far as shooting the one that comes last when called, and throwing looks in the mix because of crackpot racial theories, resulting in a bunch of inbred slavish pug people.

          Applying eugenics to a species is essentially saying it has no value to you in its current state. If you believe in controlled breeding for dogs and not people, that is not saying you think dogs are more important than people. It's saying dogs are less important than people and need to be turned into exactly what the people in charge want.

        morons like you inevitably fail to resist using sterilization as a punishment for breaking from your dogma.

        Human genetic improvement can wait until the chinese, due to a lack of religious meddling, perfect designer babies. Even then it'll probably get axed due to a state mandate to modify children to max out collectivist and obedient behavior and create a race of people who do not have or want rights.

            No, that's the belief that humans are given souls and immeasurable value by God himself when the sperm punctures the egg and the zygote begins developing, which therefore disallows any meddling with an embryo that might harm it. And abortion bans+"go forth and multiply" are a perpetual halt on eugenics. Thank frick.

            Eugenicists have only ever fricked things up. Your theories are not sound. Your understanding is incomplete. And you are incapable of not using sterilization to punish deviation from your dogmas. A eugenicist is incapable of not attempting to breed mankind into his ideal slave race.

            Even here, dogs have proven you can only frick things up. Breeders COULD have made a horde of super intelligent, super healthy dogs that could do anything they could be taught to, instead they made a bunch of hideous single purpose slaves marked with inferiority and made to be disgusting jokes of biology so everyone would know to treat them like the worthless shit they were molded into. Only borderline government oversight (contracts to supply the military) actually result in consistently healthy, long lived, and intelligent dogs otherwise dog breeders are a bunch of bumbling morons employing hick "engineering" and a bit of spite to living things.

              So it’s a case of “just trust me bro they all didn’t know what they were doing”, I don’t think there’s any discussion to be had here so we can just cut this short
              This weird fantasy of yours also falls short when most of those laws (including the Nazi one) state people can only be sterilized if they’re seen by and approved by specially established courts to display genetic diseases, as in stuff like genetic epilepsy, Huntington’s chorea, genetic blindness and deafness. Don’t see any proof it didn’t work either. You’re going to have to show that it was a conspiracy to scoop naughty women off the street willy nilly to sterilize them for thought crime or something.
              You also seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of what eugenics are like most people. Hint: we still do aspects of it today. It includes stuff like voluntary euthanasia, gene editing and abortion of the disabled.

    The difference is the dogs are selectively bred for the traits that lead to those issues. It's like eugenics for selecting the worst issues.

    Humans aren't being selectively bred for negative traits, so those traits exist without being present in the overall population. I'm all for giving those parents an incentive to abort, though.

        Low IQ welfare queens are not (necessarily!) a matter of bad breeding. Many poor uneducated people have quite good genes, but are sadly doomed to waste in a cycle of poverty, violence, and learned mediocrity. Those who become boons to humanity through adversity are very rare, and the traits that make them so cannot be bred for.

        Most people would agree that not letting dogs choose their own mates makes them LESS important than people.

        Free mate choice is a way of saying that you are already good enough, if not great, can be trusted, and nothing bad can come of your freedom.
        Being selectively bred is an insult. It more or less says "if we let you frick when you want, you will create hellspawn, stay in your fricking lane".

        Like, take alley cats for example. Because of all the uncontrolled breeding of cats, a lot of "regular ass cat" breed cats you adopt are high maintenance semi-feral nightmares and even professional breeders are having problems purging shitty adrenaline-addled personalities from their gene pools - outdoor cat homosexualry pretty much halted and reversed cat domestication so if you have enough cats within the first 5 you will either be experienced enough to own a wild crossbreed or will just be a really neglectful and abusive pet owner who lets their animals roam around to become canid cuisine. Or think about street dogs. Wherever there are street dogs, they are a hundred times more dangerous than pitbulls, because if they breed uncontrollably they keep getting more edgy, aggressive, and fearful until they're wolves again. Those traits are just better for survival without human aid. We don't let animals breed freely because the only thing that results from their free choice is a bunch of aggressive mutants with eyelid cancer only good enough for fricking and fighting long enough to pump out 2 large litters.

          Most people agree that huskies are highly intelligent and can learn commands in 1-2 repetitions, but unfortunately have the critical mental trait of being able to make their own decisions, specifically the decision not to obey your dumb commands.

              >we bully husky owners because its a fact that huskies are intelligent but not obedient
              its also a fact about every other primitive breed...

              so lovecraft was right and your average dog person is a spiritual and mental child who automatically loathes anything that was not genetically programmed to serve them and anyone associated with that?

              huskies, akitas, basenjis and shibas are not even near the intelligent-obedience skew of wolves. compared to an f1 wolfdog they are border collies. wolves are at the point of resisting learning if its from a human and only showing the motivation and attention required to other canids.

              your average dog was bred by:
              first killing the ones that did not even look at their handler when given a command. even if these dogs eagerly learned commands for rewards and showed affection, they were collared, dragged behind a stick hunt, and clubbed to death.
              second by killing the ones that responded last. these dogs were also eager to learn and affectionate but they were clubbed to death.
              third by killing the ones that were not already looking at "master" when they walked in. these dogs were eager to learn and affectionate, but they were clubbed to death.
              the prehistoric doggay enjoyed this. he felt he was justified in "rewarding" their "disrespect for the alpha male".

              not all dogs bred this way turned out to be intelligent. labs, for instance, are slavish but dumb as frick. some did because they were simultaneously required to herd sheep.

              your average primitive dog is a personality and intelligence clusterfrick with a lot of variation in the population, like cats, but generally they are of average or above average intelligence and consistently below average slavishness. like cats.

              and just like centuries ago, doggays still get unreasonably angry at the lack of slavishness itself.

              catchads hereby propose a cat-primitive dog alliance. frick manchildren who need slavish animals to feel good about themselves.

                Stubbornness is unrelated to intelligence.

                Who is smarter, a happy slave, or someone who demands pay for their work and up and fricking leaves if they dont get it? It doesnt matter. The one that learns and remembers the best is smarter regardless of how glad he is to serve you. That last part is irrelevant. Philosophical. You can say “if he knew where his frickin meals came from!” or “well he knows theres better food elsewhere”, it doesnt matter. Learning, memory, and procedural problem solving have nothing to do with eager performance.

                Very few legitimate intelligence studies have been done on dogs. Most breeds werent even eligible because they couldnt be sufficiently motivated, but “the intelligence of dogs” was invalidated regardless when malinois kept scoring above collies and retriever breeds in actual IQ rather than slavishness. Other actual studies found more variations within rather than between breeds. The most likely situation is there is a canine moronation disorder going around and a proportion of ever breed has it.

                Wolves have also been proven to be absolutely intellectually superior. They can solve a team rope pulling test. No dogs, not malinois, not border collies, can. They suck shit at obedience and will not perform. They will learn. They will remember. They will not perform, they will just rob you for the food.

                Cats can not reliably remember which string to pull to dispense a treat. They totally lack the slightest amount of object permanence. They are both stubborn and stupid, which actually makes them better pets.

                We DID domesticate wolves for no reason, and instinctive performance is totally unrelated to intelligence anyways.

                Dog domestication was a total accident and didnt take on a purpose until within a few thousand years of agriculture becoming well established. They were like cats, just there and if you were a regard you’d think they did a job but they really didn't and a somewhat smart person would do as well if not better without one.

                On the timeline, cats are anywhere from 10 to 20 centuries behind dogs so we should see a purpose bred working cat breed arise shortly.

      I find it truly irrational to advocate for anything but the health, strength and longevity of all dog breeds. It appeals to the very worst aspects of human nature to advocate for the freedom to impair, cripple and uglify dog breeds through the methodical selection of birth defects. Dog breeders should be held accountable for the health of their products. You know a tree by its fruits; and the fruits of current kennel culture are hobbling monstrosities that live for 5 years while barely being able to breathe. making money off suffering.

      "Germany's kennel club worries that legislation could lead to bans on several breeds" is of course total fearmongering, they're just seething about being held accountable for their crimes against nature. God forbid the Dachshund will actually be bred for health and strength, god forbid they will actually live longer, healthier and happier lives as a result of proper oversight. Dachshund aren't going anywhere - but hopefully the poor things they've produced will be spared from procreating, and we'll get happier, healthier and more ethically responsible Dachshunds in exchange.

      Toadlines should be the rare exception as they are the solution to the pitbull problem.

    The article criticizes the draft for being poorly written. It will be modified by the German parliament according to said article. It also raises serious questions on how far they’ll go (Golden Retrievers are known to have various types of cancers, Labrador Retrievers are known to have hip displaysia; will they be “banned”? And, what does the German Parliament know about dogs? These types of bills do not address the chief complaint.

    The VDH and all other major European kennel clubs would be well advised to keep their heads down in shame and mouths shut. Had they acted on their guidelines to prevent inhumane breeding: the legislator would not have to step in with “euro-ban fever.”

    Instead, for decades they encouraged or tolerated a steady decline of major breeds into chronically ill breeds with diminishing life spans. Veterinary authorities looked away too, as inhumane breeding resulting in suffering breeds is already illegal under the current law, which seems too vague to enforce it, however. Most major breeds are so genetically indiverse that they are genetically siblings, i.e. no matter which dog of a certain breed you would take it's like letting brother and sister reproduce.

    As for the dachshund, its most common disease is the Dackellähme (dachshund paralysis) stemming from the much too elongated spine, funny that an experienced breeder would claim the Dackel is perfectly healthy. The normal advice is to not let them take stairs because of their back and waist problems. That a breeder would claim the Dackel to be healthy is just laughable!

    It is about time professional breeders and kennel clubs (especially the VDH) put health back in the focus of breeding. This way the legislator would not have to interfere ineffectively.

          Nah it gives the pigs an excuse to stop you if they don't like you and try to find more shit that technically breaks the law.

          A bunch of gangsters and cointelpro-targeted radicals got arrested in the usa because they didn't do their income tax forms correctly. Law enforcement was looking to target them already but didn't have shit they could conclusively prove in court.

          If a meme law passes in a western country expect it to have this purpose for use against people the government doesn't like.

        Banning the specific dogs that pass on cancer or HD or fricked up faces that can not breathe or communicate will be banned. Maybe even wrinkly skin that gets infected, giant fricking ears that serve no purpose (hounds outdone in scentwork by toy spitzes!), and the gross droopy lips that just get injured and leak drool. The average doggay will FINALLY be forced to breed deformities out of working stock without changing the fact that they are working stock, admitting that centuries of tradition was medieval midwit nonsense mixed with the typical central european's violent and vitriolic hatred of nature.
