Bringing back renaissance breeds?

Posting this question because we just bought one lol

But wondering what opinions are about breeders bringing back renaissance breeds for the pet market.... or changing a current breed to bring it back to what it was originally?

Good idea?
Bad idea?

Wow, that's quite the question! Not sure of all breeds that would include but I sure as hell would like to see the English Bulldog returned to it's original form. A friend is awaiting the arrival of her third and I'll be damned if I would spend that amount of money on a dog who needed it's own ass wiped.........not to mention the breeding/whelping problems that about 95% of them encounter.

What other breeds do you consider renaissance and WHAT did you bring home????

I don't know a thing about renaissance breeds.
I am curious what you just bought though-lol

You bought a mammoth? :lol:

Old english bulldog?

yes don't laugh

lol

my husband is picking him up right now as I type this, I think its great for here in Ontario with the BSL in place that my bully happens to have long flowing hair lol and of course the snow as well.

Both his parents are actually German imports and I have pics of his grandpa doing bite work LMAO, which got my attention more then his appearance. I love German dogs.

this is the mom

the dad

Grandma (dads side)

Grandpa (dads side)



And this is the puppy yet to be named.... I was thinking hairy might be appropriate lol

Cute.... I think you should name him after me.... Bullet

hairy bullet lol

or maybe the silken bullet lol

My husband should be home any second with him, he called and said he looks just like a bear lol. I can't wait to see him

Awwwww! He looks like a baby Ewok!!!

he kind of looks like a yorkie lol

its so weird the hair on his ears is curly and long behind it lol..... I can't explain it.
And he is SOOO soft like a long haired cat, not stiff or wiry at all.

OMG! Look at the chest on him! Yorkie on steroids maybe......gonna be built like a brick s*** house :lol:

lol hopefully he can keep up with Violet or the other way around

two pees outside and he is now sleeping quietly in his crate so far so good (god don't make me regret this lol)

McPug, he is cute.

I don't know anything about Renaissance breeds, but with the English Bulldog, it would be nice to see them being bred back to their original look. I actually like the look of the OEB a lot more than the English Bulldog.

I don't have any thoughts on renaissance breeds but I do know that is one cute puppy!!
