... The number of people that will shun me and the pictures i post on my Pug Forums simply because i keep my Pugs fit and trim.
Every single bloody picture i post there i get comments on "oh your pug are too thin! You should feed them more". These are from pug fanciers, people that breed and show pugs. The only ones that don't say that to me is one pug rescuer from ontario who feeds raw and is on the same page as me about food and health, and the 2 agility people (i kid you not there is only 2 individuals that do any form of activity with their dogs). I only post the pictures up there for a select few that want to see them, i'm gonna start going to email or facebook now i think. Why should i bother with the bench pug people that insist pugs should be huge and fat and insist that pro-plan and kibbles and bits beats the pants off Orijen and how Raw is going to kill me and my dogs. Right.
It's really getting to me. I put in so much hard work to keep my dogs fit and trim and healthy, but according to almost every other pug person on the internet my dogs are sickly looking. Right, they don't look like bloody beach balls and can play for more than 5 minutes without wheezing and passing out. I don't want a fat pug. I've told them that, you know what they said to me? They told me if i don't want a fat dog and i want an active dog i shouldn't get a pug. What kind of attitude is that?
Ugh sorry for the meltdown... I guess i'm just not a "pug person" and i really don't want to be. I care about health more than that super smushed nose or the "stocky" being equal to "obese" attitude.
I wonder if anyone will even read this, it's just a bunch of whining. I'm going to hug my pugs now.
End Rant.
