The thing I dread is with poodle mixing becoming popular they'll wind up becoming more frequent in the shelter population and you'll wind up with hyper intelligent pitbulls.

I love thechecked OP for this so rate me autistic if i missed it but the good people of kiwifarms need to see this masterfully designed website for toadline bully breeding/selling/etc.
i suspect that anyone involved in micro bully breeding is legally required to be blind.
no amount of screenshots could ever capture the pure fucking insanity of this site, i highly recommend browsing through it yourself

metal afJust like @Sleazy Car Salesman said, its mostly specific for the use of your breed and over time, certain breeds were cropped and docked as a "breed standard" because thats what line of work these breeds were used for. In the US, military and police dogs are sometimes fitted with titanium teeth.
For a regular family dog that would have no purpose at all but for a police or military dog its an "upgrade" for this specific line of work.

I am against "fashion" cropping and see no reason why you should crop your boxers ears or tails because nowadays they are rarely used to guard a property, there are better alternatives. But hey, we live in a world where pet owners buy their chihuahuas and pugs "predator armor" as if that would make a difference. Thats like putting spikes on a turtle and still watch it being crushed in the jaws of a gator.

As we are on the topic of freakshow breeds, I'm gonna leave this here... nothing against the channel, I just want you guys to see this "cat".
So bloody weird. Doesn't even behave like a cat. He has a very strange reaction to the whole grooming process. He must have some sort of discomfort, itch or pain or something.
You are correct. The "sprawling" style of movement as shown to the left below is the most primitive and a better evolutionary offshoot of this was the erect style of movement as shown in the middle. For more info, see Terrestrial Locomotion on Wikipedia.View attachment 2668511
Their legs remind me of this. I don't think a creature that deformed could crawl as fast as Samara though. How the hell do the poor things walk? It must stress their joints because the weight isn't distributed normally.
All of this.OP you did a top job on this really well done, can't say anything you could have done better.
I hate pitbulls as any sane person does however this is just evil and cruel.
Unfortunately though 90% of crop jobs done on these dogs are DIY, not done by a vet. Tail cropping and dewclaw removals on puppies are also not that expensive a procedure either as I'm sure you know. It should never be done on puppies more than six weeks of age because then bone starts to replace the previous cartilage.Forgive my sperging for a moment but I have to give my two cents about cropping and docking.
Now I believe cropping and docking on pets is dumb, that being said on a working dog there’s actually a reason for the madness.
Personally I work with a breed of hearding dog and we do have a vet come in to dock the tails and remove dew claws when the puppies are around 5 days old. My vet uses a special tool to dock the tails and we’ve never had a problem with the puppies crying or showing signs of distress. I forget what the tool is called but it looks like an empty spool of thread that you place the tail into then twist and the tail is docked cleanly. Then some disinfectant and a dab of surgical glue to close the tail and they’re good to go. Some vets will suture the tail but that’s up to the vet.
The reason why we dock the tails and remove the dew claws is because when these dogs are hearding cattle, sheep, or horses it greatly reduces the risk of injury to the dog. These animals will stomp when mad and if the dog’s tail gets under hoof then at best it’s broken and at worst it gets ‘de-gloved’. (The skin is completely pulled off the tail).
With the dew claws it’s a precaution because nine times out of ten they will get caught on something and ripped off.
Tl;dr: Docking and cropping on pets = stupid and bad.
Docking and cropping on actual working dogs = fine if done by a vet.
I completely agree. These idiots who take kitchen shears to their dog’s ears and tail deserve the same treatment done to them and a special place in hell.Unfortunately though 90% of crop jobs done on these dogs are DIY, not done by a vet.

But there's always the idiot who wants their new dog to look "tough" and get pissy when told the dog is outside the age range.
Ear cropping vets are hard to come by too, in my area. Mine would do the tails and dewclaws but apparently ear cropping is a more delicate procedure to have it come out looking right. So these toad people don't want the hassle or to pay so they just lop it off in the most unsanitary way possible.
I know pits with knowledgeable owners and who had the right start to life as puppies that are fine dogs, its just infuriating when pibble stans paint the breed as angelic saints and completely disregard their breed's history that end up getting more people bitten by calling them fucking nanny dogs and setting up pibble kissing booths.It's hard for me to "hate" pitbulls personally. At least fully. They themselves are victims of selfish and morally deficient people who betray the natural love and trust dogs have in humans for profit.
That being said, as someone who's family has small dogs, I'm incredibly wary of them. I've seen videos of very young puppies latching onto each other with their teeth and not letting go, read about how someone had a seizure and their pitbull responded by biting into their throat and I've read about how some pitbulls have even learned to "smile" to trick people into coming close so they can catch them off guard when they attack.
They're high risk dogs and while I can sympathize wanting to be a "savior" that tames them and turns them around like in movies, it's a fool's errand and it's better to let the breed die out.
It definitely happens. My sister has some kind of pit cross that was left in a box with his siblings at a park when he was around four weeks old. So he had super early intervention and as a result is perfectly fine with cats, other dogs and children. The trade off though is he's a terrible guard dog. He will bring strangers toys.I know pits with knowledgeable owners and who had the right start to life as puppies that are fine dogs, its just infuriating when pibble stans paint the breed as angelic saints and completely disregard their breed's history that end up getting more people bitten by calling them fucking nanny dogs and setting up pibble kissing booths.
Also worth remembering pitbull is an umbrella term for various breeds, American pit bull terriers are illegal in the UK but staffies are allowed. A showline staffie needs to be tolerant of judges feeling them down and groping their testicles in the show ring where any negative reaction from the dog is a disqualification. Rate me optimistic or whatever but good dogs do exist out there, they just get ruined by the ocean of bad owners or get left to rot in backyards.
Depends on the snake. Ball Pythons burrow so they're perfect for rack systems but boas, carpet pythons and even some colubrids are semi-arboreal and will definitely utilize climbing spots in their enclosures if offeredIt depends on the reptile. Snakes only need to feed once or twice a week, and as long as they're small you could actually keep them in a bin like that. But when they grow larger you need to move them to a bigger tank. Snake breeders and zoos actually use this exact method to keep their hundreds of snakes in order:

This might look cruel to someone who isn't familiar with herpetology but for a hatchling this is good. The adults have bigger shelves like this:

Snakes don't care about verticality, so height is irrelevant, they just need room to move on the ground.
Backyard breeders are a huge problem. Most of them inbreed their animals to cut costs. Good portion of shelter dogs come from backyard breeders.I don't understand why "mutt" is an insult and people boast about getting a "pure breed".
Literally the best and healthiest dogs you can get are mutts you find in rescue shelters. People I've known who had pure breeds whether it be pit bulls or beagles even, always had some issue with them at an early age, for example the pit bull had to have its teeth pulled at age 1, and the beagle back gave up at 4.
I will never understand these breed chasers and buyers. Just go to an animal shelter and adopt a dog that needs a home, you're adopting a family member after all, not a toy.
