This dog is a rescue, so you are correct in this case. But people who buy unhealthy breeds from breeders are just as much the problem as the breeders themselves. If the demand for these breeds disappeared, the breeders would stop. It’s their job and they chose breeds to meet market demand.
Honestly, I think anyone who buys any animal from a breeder is an asshole. The pounds have enough pets to satisfy nation wide demand and then some. There’s zero excuse not to get a rescue.

That’s fair and I think there’s also the aspect of hypoallergenic dogs that should be considered. But I do think dog breeding needs better regulation.
