We all know that fashions are a double-edged sword and animals have always been one of the jewels in the crown of fashions. In this case we will talk about the fashion for exotic colours in dogs, which has led to the introduction of undesirable crossbreeding and colour patterns that often lead to serious health problems.
We are often told about "brachycephalic dogs" and we immediately think of the English Bulldog or the Pug, more than one thinks that they are unhealthy breeds that cannot breathe, even that their breeding is torture, but is it true? What breeds are brachycephalic and more than one doesn't know? Can they be healthy dogs? We will find out in this article.
Crossing two animals to have a litter is something very serious and you have to meditate a lot before doing it.

Fancy rats are one of the domestic (and pet) species with the highest number of coat types, being able to have not only one type of coat, but also two at the same time, as a consequence of the union of two different but compatible genes. Knowing what type of coat our rat belongs to, as well as knowing its characteristics, will not only give us the opportunity to know more about it but, in the case of wanting to breed and specialise in one type or another, will help us enormously in the...
