How anyone can think this is cute and amusing is beyond me. How #DSPCA , #thejournal and #AllianzIreland and #Allianz can buy into this - for a little extra money - is sickening.

It's almost as if #DSPCA and #thejournal and #Allianz were unaware of the issue; odd given the ongoing campaigns on it. E.g. in 2023, the Advisory Council on Companion Animal Welfare (ACCAW) issued a letter to advertisers and media, urging them to refrain from using such images. https://www.madra.ie/brachycephalic-dogs/

I keep getting these ads on #thejournal.ie, purportedly to promote animal welfare but in fact featuring an image of animal abuse. "To continue to breed from dogs whose progeny are bound to suffer is not only irresponsible – it is an act of cruelty." From https://www.sentient.org.au/breeding-brachycephalic-dogs

People breed, and other people buy, these dogs, who are born to suffer for a lifetime until they finally end their days, often through agonising suffocation. They think it's amusing or cute.
