Danes And Things

01/03/2026

Despite science and animal suffering, people still breed dogs and cats for their own pleasure whether it be looks or the massive amount of money they make. This is why it’s vital to adopt or find an ethical breeder who refuses to breed pets with these conditions.

As of January 1, 2026, Scottish Fold and Sphynx cats will no longer be bred, bought, or sold in parts of Northern Europe.
Why?
Scottish Folds suffer from a genetic mutation that causes debilitating arthritis.
Sphynx cats have the shortest lifespan of any pedigree breed and extremely high rates of heart disease.
No matter how you weigh in on the decision- it will likely have effects on how these breeds are seen world-wide, and also opens up questions about so many other breeds- bulldogs, Persian cats, frenchies, and more!
What do you think about the decision and the possible implications for band in the U.S.?

5 years ago I brought this angel home for Christmas.

A woman learned her former dog had been surrendered to a kill shelter by her ex-boyfriend. She'd been searching for the dog for months after their breakup. The dog was scheduled for euthanasia the next morning.
She arrived after closing and found the facility locked. She broke a window, disabled the alarm, and searched the kennels until she found her dog, Max. She took Max and fled.
Shelter staff discovered the break-in and the missing dog. Police issued a warrant for burglary and theft. Security footage clearly showed her breaking in.
She turned herself in three days later with Max. She faced felony charges but argued that Max was stolen from her originally by the ex-boyfriend, who'd had no legal right to surrender him.
Her lawyer proved ownership through vet records, photos, and microchip registration. The ex-boyfriend had surrendered the dog illegally out of spite.
The judge dropped charges against her and issued a warrant for the ex-boyfriend for theft and illegal surrender. Max was officially returned to her.
She still faced civil penalties for property damage to the shelter. She paid gladly, saying that breaking that window saved Max's life.
The case highlighted problems with shelter surrender procedures and identity verification.

Despite their massive size, Great Danes do NOT like to be cold.
