Animal Breeding Horror Show - Featuring trendy bulldogs, exotic bullies and the dog cum cartel

[Polyboros2]

Absolutely top tier post, a winner rating just isn't enough.

Also, a good pile of info to support "Null's Whiteness=caring about animals" theory.

Of course white people care about lesser creatures. Whites were the forefront of ending slavery, after all.

I think a lot of that ignorance about rabbits probably comes from the time when people used to buy their kids dyed baby bunnies around Easter time (also dyed baby chicks were another holiday 'favorite') and these rabbits probably were treated in such manner and either got nippy or died from bad treatment, or until the kids got bored with them and they were left in a cage. Naturally these rabbits didn't live long enough for people to see them other then short-lived cage pets, and this 'hutch mentality' still exists in some people.

This sounds like every equestrian group on Facebook/Reddit ever which is why I stopped following any equestrian group like ten years ago. Good to see nothing has changed.

Back in the Usenet days people got so riled they actually doxed each other, found and contacted people's employers to get them fired, reported each other for code violations and animal cruelty, and harassed each other in real life.

And then there was the Fugly Horse of the Day blog -- the horsie equivalent to GOMI whose author (Cathy Atkinson -- Hi Cathy!) was just as big a cow as Alice in her own homewrecking way. She did the Homer Hedge thing when that bit of gossip came out.

I imagine dog breeders do the same kind of things, but I doubt these exotic bully gangstas are anywhere near as vicious as the barn witches on rec.equestrian and uk.rec.equestrian were back in the day.

Absolutely, those people who get their little kids Easter bunnies/chicks tend to be the worst. As soon as the kid gets bored or the parents get tired of doing the caretaking, you get scenes like this:

Those are all indoor buns, dumped in the Vegas heat -- the site ended up with hundreds of domestic buns, and it took ages for rescue groups to catch and foster them at great expense.

Spoiler: PL story about bun neglect

I know a breeder who was very careful about those she sold to. One family came down several times to meet her buns; they were wealthy, seemed normal, and appeared invested in good pet care, so she felt comfortable giving them a bun. The breeder would do follow-ups with clients and inquire about the buns, and when she communicated with mom the replies were always "oh bunny's doing great!" Well, like six months later breeder gets a call from mom saying "uhh hey, we're moving to Paris in a couple days, can you take bunny back?" Breeder is shocked and pissed, but relents after chewing mom out. Mom drops off bun and quickly leaves. Poor bunny is totally matted, covered in piss, with a massive bloody abscess on its abdomen and butt. Breeder contemplates family annihilation, is sure bunny won't make it. She decides that if bunny is willing to eat (one of the most important indicators of rabbit health), she'll try her best to save it. Bunny is a fighter and eats despite its condition. Breeder spends a ton on vet bills and many touch-and-go weeks nursing bunny back to health. Bunny becomes breeder's husband's favorite and lives on as his personal little buddy. Breeder shames family on social media with pics of their depraved neglect, so at least their circle got to see evidence of their animal abuse.

Now, why is it necessary for there to be one true dwarf and one false? Well, just as the infographic shows each rabbit carries at least one dwarfism gene. A true dwarf carries two, while the false carries one. That leads to a 50% chance of a true dwarf being born, and 50% chance of a false dwarf. But, if you breed two true dwarfs, you end up with four complete dwarf genes. This to a 50% chance of a true, 25% of a false, and the even worse option: 25% chance of a peanut. Peanuts are the exact reason why breeders should never breed two dwarves. Peanuts have double the dwarf gene. They are born unable to grow, sometimes won't grow fur, and can even just grow smaller. Hardly do they ever live beyond one week. These are rabbits born to die.

The true horror is the reasons for why peanuts cannot grow: they cannot grow because their pituitary gland doesn't function correctly, and their digestive systems are incomplete so they cannot eat.

Nice to see we moved on to the Tards of the Animal Kingdom nowadays!

15 years ago when I was involved with animal showing these people were around, fifty years ago when my Grandparents were involved with animal showing these people were around. Horse people have always been seen as the elitists of the farm animal scene.

Horse boarding and training facilities and their customers are always an excellent source of drama, created by "barn witches" who identify as richer, more talented, and generally better than everyone else. A bountiful sub-genre of the Barn Witch is the Dressage Queen (drives a Range Rover, owns a $500,000 horse, uses only the most exclusive trainers, has only the most expensive bridles, saddles, clothes, and treats everyone -- barn staff, other riders, like shit.

The overwhelming majority are women.

The various equestrian forums are a rich source of milk on barn witches, their defenders, and their detractors.

Some favorite topics:

• Somebody used their horse / equipment without permission
• Somebody fed / gave their horse treats without permission
• Somebody put their horse in a pen with the wrong other horses
• Someone's horse bit / kicked someone else's horse
• The barn manager didn't clean the stall properly
• The barn manager charges too much for feed
• Someone else was hogging the arena
• Their horse found a way to injure itself in a freak accident
• The barn manager gave the wrong food to the horse
• The barn manager threatened to kick them out for not paying their bills
• The barn manager threatened to kick them out for talking to someone at another barn
• The trainer entered the horse in the wrong horse show classes
• The trainer criticized the rider unfairly
• The trainer uses cruel methods to get results
• The trainer doesn't use cruel methods to get results
• The barn manager makes everyone use the "official" farrier (horseshoer) or vet
• The farrier didn't show up as scheduled
• The vet didn't show up as scheduled
• The farrier made their horse lame
• The vet made their horse sick
• Someone criticized their favorite farrier / trainer / barn staff
• The barn manager let the horse colic (tummy ache that frequently causes death)
• The barn manager let the horse founder (sore hooves that frequently cause death)
• The judge at the horse show unfairly gave someone else first place
• The judge at the horse show unfairly penalized me when everyone else was doing the same damn thing

I have no particular interest in horses or riding, but have lurked on equestrian forums for years because of the rich supply of milk. You do need to know a bit about the disciplines, breeds, top riders, big name trainers etc. to fully appreciate the drama, but it's a worthwhile time investment.

All barn witches hate this guy because he calls them out hilariously.

Wow they sound insufferable, when you said witch I thought you were talking shitty tumblr ""witches"" who also ride.

Thank fuck I grew up too poor to be around the horse community it looks like the dog world but with 100x the elitism, I'll just gawk at shitty horse conformation from my computer screen thank you very much.

It's not just with domestic animals, sports ranchers have started doing this with White-Tail deer. It's one thing to breed bucks with longish but 'natural' looking tines, but another when you breed a line of 'monster' white-tail deer that has massive 20+ tines on each antler that just look like freaks. You often find these on trophy ranches that breed them for people to pay and 'hunt' them (I'm an aspiring hunter, but I like my 'freaks' to be natural as opposed to man-made.) It was something I discovered when I was looking up information on white-tails, and seeing them being bred like that just looks a bit... Grotesque.

What do you do when one of your genetically mutated pets kills your other genetically mutated pets? Just sell it to someone else!

Spoiler: The Dog

Doesn't look as mutated as the others, but the ad stood out for obvious reasons.

"They Productions"


Since horses and buck have been discussed, I'd like to bring up 'fainting goats' aka Tennessee Fainting Goats.

They don't actually 'faint', they fall over because of muscle rigidity after a sudden movement which is due to a hereditary condition called myotonia congenita. The fxcked up part is that the condition is hereditary, and although some goats can just be unlucky, the condition can be prevented by breeding them with a non-carrier of the gene. Basically, these goats are being purposefully bred to either be bait or to be laughed at. I'd give a pass for them being used to protect other important livestock [they get eaten first, gives the others a chance to flee], but the fact of the matter is they are being bred and sold as pets. Pets with special needs who are sitting ducks for prey.

Spoiler: PL

They were popular in the area for a while, but enough of them were being killed by neighboring (or their own) dogs that there had to be a PSA about it. Goats, kept as pets or not, are still considered livestock in this state so they don't have any rights. This means if Fido next door kills Billy, you're SOL because Fido did exactly what all dogs do, they kill prey. Maybe if Billy was able to run or ram instead of just falling over, he may have had a chance of fighting off Fido.

Haven't read anything beyond the OP but I gotta say hell yeah to this thread. Seen so many SMASHED AND SLAMMED threads on /an/ and I always wanted an overview of that hot mess.

 

[UselessPieceOfShit]

What a great OP. I was absolutely horrified reading it.
I want to talk about re.tarded dog owner and not only breeders if we are at that. There are a lot of trendy dog breeds that people with little experience latch onto. Pitbulls are a good example but there are more. Remember how there was a youtube trend with a singing husky years ago? It gave a rise to popularity of huskies in general. Suddenly, every re.tard who never owned a dog in their life wanted one. In my town, I saw at least 10 huskies when I went on a walk with my doggies. Now, what's a problem? The thing is, huskies a bred for pushing sleds in fucking Polar zone or whatever the hell it's called. If you watched Balto you know what I'm talking about. So, they are mostly good just for that. They are not a breed that suited for a live in a flat with an hour or so of leisurely walking in a park. People awfully often weren't able to deal with such a hyperactive and unruly dogs and gave up on them en masse. I met a lot of husky owners who bought them on a whim and then weren't able to train them at all.

Now the husky craze is gone, thankfully, but we have another trendy breed of akita. Another difficult breed that everyone wants to own. Geez.

Akita? Jesus Christ, your neighborhood has gone from bad to worse in trend dogs. The Shiba Inu is famously hard to train, and Akita is it's bigger cousin that's done time, to the point where insurance companies (at least around here) won't cover them. I'd hate to think what would happen if Czech Vlack or Tibetan Mastiff become the next trendy pupper.

Hopefully corgis or something catch on.

 

[Splinters RCVD ✞]

Now a full-fledged, proper thread. Well done, this is a major truth bomb.

 

[Retired Junta Member]

Are they mentally disabled too? I noticed that in all of the videos they seem very out of it and slow, wasn't sure if they are sedated or exceptional.

An influencer-housewife bitch i sometimes talk to has one of those mini-frogdog with a very noticeable hydrocephalus. I think he’s indeed exceptional or at least brain damaged because he’s basically catatonic. The poor bastard lives in a semi constant state of stupor.

 

[Adamska]

This is dumber than the ant ponzi scheme and the wannabe thugs stuck in this scam are repulsive to the extreme. So happy I caught this thread during its move when it got brought out; I did not expect to see "Rats in the Walls" tier forced inbreeding to a prior and agonizing form of their chattel.

Also Aleppo goats are my new sleep paralysis demons, thanks.

 

[Liucage67]

There are lot of people that is trying to breed wolves to create low content wolves or wolf dogs

I'm surprised nobody brought up The Belgian Blue yet.



They're a breed of cattle bred for their muscular physique.


Despite their size they are however not associated with any of the Auroch breeding back programs nor are they related to the Heck cattle breed.
