Excerpt from ‘Designer Dog-Fights‘ – The New York Times Magazine 2/4/2007 – Jon Mooallem
“Making purebred pugs is arduous and important business. The pug’s problem is geometrical. A century of selection for the standard’s “square and cobby” body has exaggerated those qualities, rendering many males incapable of positioning themselves on a bitch, of procreating reliably without human assistance. Nor can puppies muscle through the pug’s narrowed birth canal; like many breeds, virtually all pugs must be delivered by C-section. “You’ll never have feral pugs,” one woman told me earlier that night. She said it fondly.
Woody, the Beards’ stud, is older, and his frozen semen had not survived FedExing. So weeks earlier, Patt Kolesar embedded a hormonal implant in her bitch’s vulva to bring her into heat in time for tonight’s scheduled “side by side.”
Kolesar positioned her bitch, Birdie, on the floor. Woody sniffed rambunctiously and mounted. As the dog began his dedicated thrusting, the unlikelihood of him ever managing the transaction on his own was plain. And so, as planned all along, Jutta Beard crouched behind him and concluded things with an expeditious right hand. In an instant, she was holding up a plastic bag with a dime-size clump in its corner.
The reproductive specialist set about confirming the semen’s motility with a microscope and advised Kolesar to tuck the pipette in her cleavage. It is a trick, she said, to keep it warm while they transferred Birdie onto the table and Beard microwaved some skim milk for “extender,” compensating for Woody’s paltry output. “It takes a village,” Kolesar said, exhaling deeply as she got up off the floor.
Kolesar showed me a photograph of Woody’s father, a famous specimen named Captain Snappy. The squat, fawn-colored pug with taut, thin legs stood on a pedestal. Gesturing rapidly, Kolesar praised the gorgeous angle of the dog’s back, the proportions of its face. To describe the compactness of its form, she invoked the Latin phrase “multum in parvo,” or “much in little,” the pug’s unofficial motto. Then she picked up an arresting syringelike instrument. It was filled, via Woody, with some of Captain Snappy’s superlative genes.
Kolesar slid the tool into Birdie. After several minutes, she removed it and seemed satisfied. Then she inserted her bare finger into Birdie’s vagina and began to wriggle it, delicately and with great purposefulness. She was “feathering” the dog, stimulating the vaginal walls as a stud would, so that her muscles would contract and draw the semen into her cervix. (The surest method of insemination, Kolesar later explained, and one commonly done, is to surgically expose the bitch’s uterus, deposit the semen directly and then sew it back up.) As Kolesar worked, Beard positioned herself near the dog’s head, and the Beards’ daughter was at center, stroking Birdie’s back like a midwife. This seemed to go on for a long time. Then it was done.“
Wha?! HA!
I’m speechless.
Right? This is a night these people have been looking forward to for a long time.
He looks like Art Bell!!!!
Or she!
I’ve known some dog breeders in my life. It is always about greed, or anthropomorphism. “Hey, I want my dog to get some pussy, because i sure as hell wouldn’t want someone cutting my nuts off. I want kids!”
I had an ex girlfriend that used to breed dogs. She was actually quite kind, but she always talked about what she was going to do with the $$ she made from the puppy sales.
Come from china
ugly fat pigpug
You people are idiots. Here are picture’s of Captain Snappy’s offspring competing in agility trials… jumping over bars and running over A-frames. Yeah… pugs are fat and useless alright. (end sarcasm)

If your dog is fat it’s because you’re feeding him too much and that’s your own stupid fault.

and i have a fat pug like that and he gets good care. and that nasty pig pug happens to be my pug thank i put it on here along time ago
Poor obease pug. It’s so hard on the pugs body to be fat. It’s just like us. It’s up to a dogs owner to make sure they are fed the proper food and proper amounts and exercise. Over feeding is abuse to a dog. I wish you would consider cutting back on your dogs food intake and stop using food to show your love. It only takes a few days to train them a dog to not expect any treats. Please do the right thing. I’ve seen this a lot, and the pugs that lose weight do so much better. PLEASE, if you love your dog, you will cut back on the dogs food.
dog breeding for profit is pretty much always abusive
Letting a pug get that fat is cruel.
pugs rock
even if they are fat…. its also cruel to let humans get fat
Why do pugs have rankled little faces does that make them different.
So….what’s your point? Pugs are not “designer” breeds…their ancestry is actually from ancient China…the emperor’s pets…over 2000 years ago!
Any animal will become fat, if allowed. They’ve been bred on their own successfully for centuries.
As with anything in nature, it usually ends up being “shame on humans”!.
Poor thing doesn’t even look happy! Get it on some decent healthy food!
Can’t you get arrested for w4nking off a pug???
put that pug on a green been diet half cup of food and 2 big spoons of cutgreen beens they do not have any fat and they fill the dog up and they love it but not at first. The back is the fisrt thing that will go on a fat pug.It can KILL them.

GET OUT AND TAKE THAT POOR ANIMAL FO A WALK
YOU ARE KILLING THAT DOG WITH YOUR STUPIDITY
Might need a little more than a walk. Reduce the food. I am surprised how many people free feed dogs
people who don,t own a pug don,t realize how adorable and loving they are, even tho they may look sad,its just their expression…they are happy little dogs,very affectionate and loyal. pugs make fantastic pets
i have a pug named holly and she is skinny and not fat! but pugs are still cute if they r fat
i love that dog because it used to be my dog. no lie
Really kind of surprised about this site, I own 2 pugs and I breed them I have never had that problem. In fact I am appauled by it. As for your pug have you not done your research on these animals? your guy is huge very overweight and although I am sure you think it is adorable, it really is unhealthy and hurtful to your animal. And if this is a spoof site just to see the response I am just wondering if you got exactly what you wanted, if you feel better about yourself in making yourself look like the biggest perverted animal abuser out there. And really if this is all true, I truely hope that the SPCA or your local animal shelter look into you and remove your dog.
thos dog is so fat it can sit on me and i will die loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool lol
hay it me i am sorry for that other cometnt
i lost my wee pug in january i am broken hearted. but seeing these pics fair cheered me up. thanx.
That pug is fat! I have a pug who is about 4 inches taller and 6 inches longer than the standard breed and is nearly 50 pounds! He looks like a miniature mastiff.
this is all weird and disgusting.
So basically you fingered a dog
do pugs come from some type of a pig??????
