…is the French bulldog, at least among some demographics. A relative has one….

Can’t mate without being held up in place, can’t give birth except by c-section. Priced accordingly.

Nice enough, gentle enough for kids, housebroke, tries hard to be a dog despite physical limitations. Can’t take heat, gurgles and hums a lot, not good at long walks. Does bark at strangers at least, retrieves thrown dog toys.

Doesn’t seem fair to the dog to breed ‘em to look like that.
