Because nature does it better. Srs Muts typically live longer and have less problems. Its Darwinism.

Maybe breeders could create some contract where they get paid every year the dog lives

So the normal price of a dog paid up front

Then 50 dollars every year it’s alive

That way they are incentivized for breeding longevity

I’ve read that before, and also that a lot of breeds are really messed up now (breathing problems due to pushed in nose, wiener dogs with back problems). Basically animal cruelty

But that’s because the breeders are optimizing for what some random sloot thinks is “cute” right? Where “cute” is cruel disabilities. I’m just thinking if they optimized for lifespan instead of “cute”
