The only way that it’ll become better is if the standard for the pug changes. The UK kennel club has updated it’s standard to include a healthier head and muzzle shape. Unfortunately the American Kennel Club has not yet done so. The pugs that are presented at Westminster are sickening.
I also take beef with the awful roached back of the German Shepherd show standard.

The German shepherd thing is absolutely insane to me.
It’s a working dog and it’s not like other breeds where there aren’t examples out there.
IRC there’s a working line and the east german line with far less issues. They simply refuse to interbreed dogs with them.
Yes, there was uproar over a prize-winning GSD at Crufts one year, it looked crippled.
