«What we’ve done,» replied one user.
«Guess who’s unhappy about potential breaches of the Act portability and accountability medical insurance,» joked someone else under the photo of the pug, which even on the scan looks shocked.
After the initial tweet went viral, Richter added: «I told my friend that his dog went viral, and he told the dog. By the way, it was healthy.» He attached a photo of a dog taking a sun bath and the text of each edited the name of pug.
Although many found the photo of the scan – which some mistook for an x-ray – funny, experts say that it however, they worried. The reason the pug looks so weird with his huge eyes and flattened nose, is closely related to fertilization.
The vet Rory Colem said: «Their faces are shorter due to the intense breeding of dogs by humans. They have large eyes, upturned noses… this condition is called brahikefaliya».
From this condition suffer French bulldogs and Shih Tzu, which can lead to serious medical problems, including breathing difficulties.
«Through breeding we made them more similar to human children because we think that’s pretty. But, unfortunately, this appearance is not beneficial to the animal,» said Coulam.
