Doodles are a fucking nightmare. While shopping around for a new groomer I see so many have announcements on their social media specifically about matting in doodles, it's insane.
This exactly. There’s a relatively large amount of groomers that refuse to service doodles over their owners being nightmares. I’ve read about some incidents of threats over a groomer “ruining” the dog over doing an unwanted shave or trim for the well-being of the dog. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to pick out burrs, stick, and random shit out of doodle coats because their owners refuse to at least brush them. The problem comes down to doodles being pedaled as overgrown chia pets when in realty they are high maintenance dogs. Why people spend thousands on what is essentially a mutt then don’t even bother to give it basic care is beyond me.
At least palmettos were supposedly bred from a wild snake and weren't actually specifically bred for their characteristics, and as you've said they seem to usually be fine. But anything where real health complications can crop up from birth should just be avoided in general, and breeding for those traits I just cannot understand.
Most doodles have two types of hair or fur depending on genetic make up.
tbf it's more entertaining than most dog shows
I’m pretty sure the same thing happened with cats a long time ago. They were called twisty cats or something? Some years ago I was fucking around and accidentally ended up finding this whole website dedicated to the history of cat breeding or some shit.
rewatching this it's weird how the dogs seem to give exactly no fucks about the commotion
They’re all painfully inbred, I’d be surprised if they could tell they were somewhere new.
They might just be deaf. That's a problem with some breeds that aren't inbred to the point of absolute retardation.
A bit spergy I know, but it's beginning to feel like everything connected to western culture these days is some kind of very convoluted scam.
