Enormously important paper: 1. Purebred dogs on average genetically equivalent to sibling or parent/offspring mating (some ⇡ worse) 2. Some purebreds need 29% ⇡ vetcare than mixed breeds 3. Snub-nosed dogs the worst Study included nearly 50k dogs from 227 breeds

"Inferring emotion in animals based on our perception does not ensure animals have those emotions... Perception of emotion in animals is the act of ‘seeing human’ where it may or may not be." Thought provoking! @eblissmoreau 2017 Current Opinion Psychology
BREAKING: American and Southwest Airlines announce that they will ignore Republican Governor Greg Abbott's foolish ban on vaccine mandates and will continue to enforce them in deference to the Biden administration's orders. RT IF YOU SUPPORT THEIR DECISION!
