NEW YORK — For the first time in three decades, the U.S. has a new favorite dog breed, according to the American Kennel Club.
The British Veterinary Association has urged people not to buy flat-faced breeds, such as Frenchies. The Netherlands has prohibited breeding very short-snouted dogs, and the country's agriculture minister aims to outlaw even owning them. "These dogs can be very fit, can be very active," Stefaniak said."They don't have to be sedentary dogs that can't breathe."
"They're being very exploited" by unscrupulous breeders, she said. The Westlake, Ohio-based vet has seen plenty of Frenchies with problems but rejects arguments that the breed is inherently unhealthy. Some of her own do canine performance sports.
