WITH A FOREWORD BY DR. PHIL MCGRAW Designer Dogs is the shocking exposure of the dangers of continuing to make our dogs tinier or funnier looking, more Instagram worthy, and presents startling new revelations on why this threatens French bulldogs, pit bulls, and other favorite breeds with extinction.Ever heard of a labradoodle, a goldendoodle, or a puggle? How about a cockapoo, a pomsky, or a spoodle? You or a friend have certainly been enticed by a hypoallergenic dog or smiled at a teacup. These are not dog breeds that nature created; these are the results of the forced mating or genetic engineering of different breeds, or inbreeding, and popularized by social media and celebrities.In Designer Dogs, Madeline Bernstein, one of the countrys most respected animal welfare crusaders, reveals the obsession with new types of dogsengineering puppies that keep getting smaller or sillier lookingand the horrifying health consequences of this on those we claim as our best friends. She also provides extraordinary revelations on how this has led to a world of disposable petspuppies and adult dogs abandoned when their medical expenses become too costly and added to the 6.5 million animals entering shelters each year, or put on the streetand informed insight into whats ahead: madetoorder puppies; hybrid animals; shorter life spans for dogs; and even the extinction of breeds like French bulldogs, pit bulls, King Charles spaniels, mastiffs, Skye terriers, bloodhounds, and more. And Bernstein calls out those responsible for the savagery, both domestic puppy mills and backyard breeders, and also an international dog trafficking ring that shes been on the front line exposing.Bernsteins gamechanging and unforgettable book is destined to cause outrage and save lives in the process.
