Gerard is a FCI judge and a breeder of Rottweilers. Hear us discuss the extreme breeding. We try to find reasons why brachycephalic dogs are so popular today. The social media is showing the extremes and then we think that's normal. Where is the limit to it? Shall we ban the breeds that are suffering as Norway recently did? What is the way out?
