Thank you for all the Boston pics! The Bull Terriers are also very interesting and have really changed the most out of all the dogs featured here a century later. You can really see how heavily the Dog Argentino favors the bull terrier used in production here.
Speaking of the dogo Argentino, why does the A. K. C. still allow cropped ears? A breed just recognized in 2020. There is no excuse for this.
The AKC isn’t big on pushing changes to Tradition in favor of the welfare of the dogs. If they were, you wouldn’t be able to show any of the brachy dogs without proof they can breathe normally without surgery, and they’d be funding well-researched outcross projects to save, to name two breeds badly in need of it, Flatcoat retrievers and Cavalier King Charles spaniels.
