Dog Health Problems

dog health problems
Would there be any health problems likely with a Pug/Husky dog mix?

I know it sounds like an odd combination, but its what I’d be interested in having as a pet dog. Are there any less than obvious health problems a mix of such would happen to have with a dog like this?

Less than obvious health problems? Quite possibly. Any breeder mixing those two breeds is *guaranteed* to be one that either hasn’t any idea what they are doing, or couldn’t care less about the welfare of the dogs they produce. They wouldn’t be taking any care to ensure the dogs’ health whatsoever, so there may well be some unexpected problems arise.

Even if there aren’t any less obvious problems, there are some that absolutely scream out from the page.

Firstly, if the pug is the female, carrying a litter of pups from a husky sire could potentially kill her.

So, we’ll say that either she survives or the pug is the male. You’d have a litter of pups with some pug traits & some husky traits.

Huskies are a breed that needs LOTS of exercise, and want to keep going, and going, and going….. Remember what they were bred for – pulling people and their posessions on sleds for miles and miles.

Pugs are a breed that has very low exercise requirements, and can be susceptible to breathing problems.

Put those two breeds together, and you could have a dog that desperately needs lots of exercise, but cannot breathe sufficiently well to actually do it.

Pugs also tend to suffer in hot weather. A husky coat was designed to keep the dog warm in the frozen siberian arctic. I think you can guess the potential for problems there, can’t you?

That’s not to mention the differences in size. Could the internal organs of a pug keep a husky-sized dog healthy? What about if they inherit the pug’s legs and the husky’s body size? Are you prepared for a dog whose legs cannot properly support its body?

I’m not against cross-breeding per se. There are lots of working breeders who will outcross with other breeds for function. However, not only is there no reason why any responsible breeder would mix these breeds, I’m racking my brains and I can’t think of a worse combination. Really.

Drop this idea. Please.

Health and Health Care as Social Problems

$67

This engaging and accessible reader takes a social problems approach to health and medicine, providing a broad and critical lens on contemporary health problems. Designed for courses on social problems and on medical sociology, the volume embraces two fundamental principles: that health and illness are at least partly socially produced, and that health care is not an unfettered good and often brings with it serious social problems. The volume is organized into six sections, addressing the medicalization of human problems; the social construction of health problems; social movements; gender; race and class and the provision of health care; and medical accountability. Taken together, the essays demonstrate the depth and richness of a social problems approach to health and medicine, and the critical perspective it brings to our understanding of health and illness in U.S. society.
