- This week Sarah and Kendahl take on their final form and turn into dogs and bark at each other for an hour. (JK - but that'd be pretty cool right?). They discuss the ethics of buying dogs from breeders rather than rescuing, and all the complications that often come with dogs who come from breeders.

Eggs that we eat are unfertilized and they only become chicks if a male rooster fertilizes them haha. It’s gross, but eggs are like chicken periods 😂
My mom hates when I bring that up
Chicken periods 🤯 ok good to know 😂
I was going to say the same! Eggs are chicken periods lol
I remember my parents got my rat Terrier Sophie from a breeder online and she was HUGGEEE like fat and taller than most tall Rat terriers. We discovered that she had a weird genetic mutation thag made her not stop growing. She also had horrible anxiety that caused her to pick her legs raw to the point where we'd have to wrap them to make her stop. Also, developed dog diabetes and became blind due to the insulin prescribed to her. Wild ride but I loved her so much. Pls do the most research you can when looking for a dog from a breeder. I do not condone breeders and infact hate them, but if that ends up happening in life pls just give the dog the best life they can
one thing i learned recently thanks to tiktok is that there are "birth clinics" for dogs which translates to non vet tech people doing operations out of their own house.
The overbred dogs casnt even birth naturally most of the times so these inhuman people cut one more cost of not going to a vet to get their dog a c-section but some random ass untrained people who do it for way cheaper.
its horrid. im already very biased against breeders but if you want to tell me your breeder is "ethical" please have you requested their vet techs history? how did they dog give birth and where? see the paperwork.
Kendahl, you're not a step parent, you're the PARENT WHO STEPPED UP.
Eggs we commonly eat are unfertilized, the chick doesn’t like spawn out of nowhere if the egg sits too long 😭
i hate backyard breeding so much so i’m glad someone finally talking about the sad mutation dogs
eggs are NOT FERTILIZED Y'ALL😭😭theyre basically chicken periods, unless they're fertilized by a rooster they aren't babies lol
You can absolutely find beagle mixes at every shelter, especially in the south. I’ve had soooo many beagle mutts over the years and they’re all wonderful. I have a rescue now that’s probably part chihuahua or pug, and she’s the sweetest girl in the world. Sure, she eats shit, but so do breeder dogs lol
I have a beagle mix and she is the love of my life! I got her at LASPCA
honestly, as someone who has a breed dog when ppl get defensive about their dogs it’s bc they know they got it from an unethical breeder. i’ve had schnauzers my whole life and my last dog died at 12 and she was completely healthy: she was hit by a careless driver. my schnauzer now is also very healthy and super smart (im training her to be an anxiety service dog and she’s excelling!🎉 ) it’s so easy to get a good healthy dog, but it’s true that a lot of people just want to say they have dog without having the responsibility of giving them a good life.
I’ve lived with someone in college who bought a 4,000 dollar bulldog puppy that had to get eyelid surgery since they folded inward and their eyelashes would poke their eyes and tail surgery since it was deformed and also grew inward so she couldn’t properly clean herself. She was constantly getting UTI’s because of her tail. I honestly do think it says a lot about someone’s character when they support breeding, and although my roommate eventually took her dog to the vet about the UTIs, it was scary to see how long she let her constantly rub and itch herself while peeing everywhere before taking her in
oh jeez 😖
shoutout to whoever does the thumbnails because frenchies are the poster children for backyard breeders right now
dogs are my special interest (wellbred purebreds to be specific) i 100% want to show dogs as a hobby some day
the reason why dog shows dont have a mutt category is because dog shows arent "who has the cutest dog" competitions. each breed has a written and visual breed standard and the dogs who win match their breed standard the most. so its not like when a poodle wins its because the judge thinks the poodle is cuter than the bloodhound or golden retriever. its because the poodle matches the poodle breed standard better than the bloodhound matched the bloodhound breed standard. with mutts there is no breed standard (obviously its a mixed breed dog).
we need to have reputable ethical breeders. without good breeders many dog breeds would go extinct, or we would only have mixed breeds/poorly bred purebreds available to us. i want to know the lineage of my future dogs and i want to have my breeders support for the entire life of my dog. i also really only like rare breeds that there is 0% chance of finding at shelters.
Adopt or shop responsibly!!
dog trainer here sooooo humping is not completely neutral behavior it can be because of overstimulation and often those dogs don’t have an outlet for that overstimulation. That’s why lick mats, and snuffle mats are really helpful. That’s a better outlet for your dog and not most of the time all of the time it is, the owners fault that their dog is the way that they are hundred percent guaranteed. We actually tell people at our facility. Bad news everything that’s wrong with your dog is your fault. The good news is also everything that’s wrong with your dog is your fault so you can fix it! (Obviously, that’s not always the case when people adopt dogs that had previous owners)
Came all the way from Spotify to tell y’all about eggs, but we’re already on it I see 😭
I had a guinea pig and he was our family’s hyper fixation. I can confirm we took care of him better than ourselves
Ugh I had 3 tattoo removal sessions with one lady and then I went to a different doctor and he told me the laser she was using didn't remove yellow! It's a SUNFLOWER. Now I've had 6 total and its still not gone
Six is so normal for it to still be visible. I have a tattoo that was completely removed, like it was never there and it took 11 sessions. Definitely not trying to excuse the first person not telling you that, but just saying don’t let being 6 sessions in discourage you!!
@@rileyashworth1827 no that’s okay thank you that actually made me feel a lot better!
Dog owners who say "oh its just a dog" are the same people with kids who say "oh theyre just kids"
Yes, they are just dogs/kids they dont know any better, but you do. Its your responsibility to teach them in a kind manner. And if you cant do that then maybe you shouldnt be a care giver to a dog or human
Kendahl you were right about the eggs!! Then you got gaslit
Please for the love of god don’t stop this podcast I needed this
there needs to be a rooster present for the egg to be fertilized!! a chicken will lay an egg regardless!!
Genuinely so blessed to have this podcast in my life. Yall brighten my day fr.
My old roommate rescued a dog that was used for unethical breeding and she had sooo many issues. She would eat anything and everything (once ate a used condom). She had terrible anxiety and would lick her paws and arms raw. It was so sad, she is very sweet but super traumatized bc they kept her in a tiny cage all the time.
Sarah that's not how eggs get fertilized 😂
My cousin buys pugs from a breeder so all three of her dogs are related. So definitely some inbreeding happening over there. She had to get her newest one like a nasal widening surgery bc her snout is basically nonexistent. Oh yeah and the oldest one is morbidly obese. My boyfriend has a pug that he rescued and he actually has a snout and is a perfect weight. Only problem really is he has allergies but he’s 12 years old and still super active and happy.
pugs shouldn’t be bred in general and i’m pretty sure it’s banned in other countries. america is just so behind
My friend has a dog he bought cause his dad was the one paying for it and for some reason insisted on getting it from a dog store and they saw a yorki puppy and just fell in love with it and he managed to talk the worker down on the price by a lot but now he has chronic dry eyes and he’s only like 4, so my friend says he loves his dog but wouldn’t buy one from a store again and doesn’t like that his dad insisted on the puppy store
I only have rescues, but working in vet met, ethical breeders are so important. Ethical breeding gives us more healthy dogs in the long run. Unfortunately, rescue dogs can be unpredictable, both behaviorally and health wise. An ethically breed dog will be more predictable. Ultimately, I think you can do the work to find a rescue dog that will suit your life, but I will never knock someone choosing to buy an ethically bred dog. Backyard breeding, puppy mills, etc. is the problem, and people purchasing dogs from these breeders contribute to the problem.
Thank you for this comment. I was surprised that they were so negative about people buying dogs in general and not just those who bought them unethically. Some people want a puppy from the start, of a particular breed that suits their lifestyle & family unit best. I don’t think it’s bad if they took the time to research and get a dog from a genuine breeder. It’s not always about being lazy because they can’t train a shelter dog
My a parrot owner, painting parrots and just having been to bird store to get more toys- We know but hey! ! ! In all seriousness, adopt don't shop, don't clip the wings/free fly them where possible and volunteer if you live in a place with wild parrots x
As someone that grew up on a farm, chicken eggs are naturally unfertilized until/unless a rooster roots the chicken beforehand. Eggs won't just develop chicks overtime unless they are fertilized by the rooster.
I'm a fish owner, not enough people research before getting into fish. There's a lot more to it than people think. I have 4 tanks currently. Our beta fish just passed away at 4yrs old a couple of months ago❤
Sarah you would hate haveing a beagle, they have been breed to bark/bay. They will overstimulate you on the daily. But a gray hound sounds like a good fit for you. They have like once daily zoomies but other then that they are pretty lazy big dogs. And you can rescue retired race dogs and they are usually pretty chill
My parents adopted a dog from a website and the next day after adoption she bit someone who stopped by to say hi and then we learned she was VERY territorial of us and the house and when my parents wanted to return her because it wasn't disclosed that she was an aggressive dog their phone no longer worked. She was very nice to us and we could do whatever to her and she couldn't care less but if anyone outside our family came over she'd lunge for the neck.
them thinking chickens asexually reproduce is sending me 😂
I had a Shar Pei when I was little, she had to have eyelid surgery but luckily she was the runt of the litter and didn’t have too many wrinkles but typical Shar Pei’s need to be cleaned between the folds and all sorts it’s quite sad
Izzzyzzz just made a video about bulldog breeders online it's such a crazy topic!
Also I got an add to buy French bulldogs on this video 💀
Sorry ad I don't think we are your target audience like you thought 😂
My ex roommates cat pissed on my pillow before I could go to sleep the first night and she laughed 🙃
I'm so sorry but I do kick my dog out the room when they start picking. Like bestie omg STOP IT PLEASE OH MY GOD
25:26 As a cat owner, I’m used to the spiky tongue. When a dog licks me it’s fine, I love dogs… but the smooth tongue reminds me more of a human so it freaks me out sometimes 😂
my parents have a golden retriever bc my moms obsessed with them. shes from a very good breeder and has been well trained but is still a huge shithead ngl, especially compared to their other dog who's a rescue mutt and is the sweetest boy.
I’ve been watching since the beginning and the way your friendship has developed is so dang sweet!!!!
I adopted my cat when he was 5. He has the entitlement of a hangry toddler.
And so he should! 😂😂❤
Eggs are unfertilized unless a rooster is present. Just like women passing eggs during a period that aren’t fertilized. Also, when Sarah said she wanted a not high energy dog and the suggestion was “oh, like a lab?”. Labs are crazy high energy lol. They’re smart and trainable, but super high energy. Lastly, as someone who has a rescue, I understand why first time owners may want to buy from a reputable breeder instead of adopting. My dog, who I adore, is an 85 lb pit mix with a history of abuse and has dog reactivity. At the beginning of having him, it was very difficult. But I have had many dogs over the years and was prepared to handle him. He would’ve been too much for a lot of first time owners and they would’ve either returned him to the shelter or put him in situations that could’ve gone really badly because they simply didn’t know better. When you buy from a reputable, ethical breeder, they do breed for not only physical health, but also temperament. That can make a huge difference. I’m very pro adoption, but people adopting dogs they are absolutely not equipped to handle doesn’t help the people or the dogs.
This topic is so random, but HONESTLY, I could hear you guys reading the any newspaper/magazine and discussing any topic that comes along...
fun little fact, when most animals get spayed/neutered they do get a tattoo!! look for a little blue line on their belly, it’s usually done so that they don’t get into surgery again in case owners switch and such
When I did my Vet Assistant practicum there was an English bulldog that came for a c-section (side note - helping revive puppies is terrifying!) and the poor Mama had such difficulties breathing day to day that they kept the ET tube in after surgery because she could FINALLY breathe and was comfortable. And her owners were just breeding her to try for the rare/more expensive colourings 😢 they were planning to breed her again as soon as they could. ❤️🩹 People think they are better off with these pure breeds, but we are breeding these anatomical PROBLEMS over and over (like brachycephalic airways) so they usually have even worse health issues than any "mutts"
this comment is insanely fucking long. sorry?
honestly instead of "adopt don't shop", the best solution is "adopt OR shop, after careful consideration and plenty of research into both breeders and rescues in your area". because there are really reputable and serious breeders who go to great lengths to ensure that their animals are taken care of and there are really scummy rescues / shelters as well. good rule of thumb for both: if they don't allow you to visit with the animal(s) before committing to buying / adopting one, don't trust them. also don't adopt or buy from those that support declawing cats.
if you're buying from a breeder, research the breed very thoroughly (when you think you've done enough research, do more) so you know what proper care is, what issues are common, and know what to look for and what to watch out for when visiting a breeder you're considering. learn what the most common issues for this specific breed are and have prepared questions about those issues to ask in person; if they seem annoyed, resistent, or offended that you're asking questions about their breeding practices and the health of their animals, they're probably not trustworthy. also, if they sell unsterilized animals or else don't require buyers to sterilize them at a certain age, i wouldn't trust them. obviously don't buy from backyard breeders. also obviously don't buy from breeders that breed and / or support breeding animals that aren't just more prone to certain health issues, but their entire existence is a health issue (brachycephalic dogs, those insanely inbred instagram bullies, scottish folds (looking at you tswift), munchkins, et cetera).
if you're adopting from a shelter: get in touch with shelter volunteers / the general animal welfare community in your area to sus out the rescue's reputation. how do they treat their animals? do they have a history of lying about or misrepresenting their animals' health and / or behavior? if they condone or encourage outdoor cats don't trust them. also i'm generally on the fence about rescues that promote or participate in tnr, but that's a me thing.
also if you live in the uk and are looking for a cat and you DON'T want to let your cat outside (aka you don't want to neglect your pet lmao), it's basically impossible to adopt because rescues there are insane. the vast majority REQUIRE that you let your cat out unsupervised, that you have a cat flap, and will perform random house checks to see if you're following these rules and if you aren't they can legally take the cat back. so if you're cat searching in the uk buying from a breeder or getting a cat off of craigslist or facebook or smth is basically the only way lmao.
edit: though i don't think they're taking into account that while cat breeds are basically purely aesthetic outside of a few very specific breeds, dog breeds are (for the most part) bred for specific tasks. and sure many don't actually perform those tasks in the modern day, but they are still highly specialized to specific lifestyles while any give cat will be fine anywhere. certain dogs are predisposed to be better at tracking and hunting, these ones for guarding, these for herding, et cetera. so i actually understand wanting a purebred dog a lot more than a purebred cat, because they are generally suited to specific lifestyles.
dog breeds are generally more rigid than cat breeds; you can find specific breeds of dog in shelters, meanwhile i don't care if the shelter volunteer said your cat is a maine coon, if you don't have the pedigree papers no it isn't. aesthetic qualities in dogs are generally limited to certain breeds, while basically any "moggie" cat can have the exact coat and coloring of a purebred. in a mutt, you can identify breed traits and make fairly accurate guesses as to what breeds its a mix of based off appearence and behavior, while cats tend to lose their breed traits after one or two generations being crossbred out.
I got Embark too and my 25 lb Chihuahua Poodle MinPin mix is 3% wolfiness! I love it!!!
Wait til you find out that French bulldogs can't even breed on their own and they have to be artificially inseminated because of they way they're shaped 🙃
I came here the moment I heard. Heard the chicken comment haha. Keeps slaying though. I listen to this podcast on Spotify
Hearing Angel and not MISSY GURRRRL throws me off 😂
There are also breed specific rescues if you just HAVE to have a specific breed.
my sister bought a dog and adopted a dog. the one she adopted is so so sweet. the one she bought likes to bite my 1 yr old nephew 🫶
Sarah: "Bird people are wierd". Also Sarah: "I love chickens"
Both adopting & shopping can be done responsibly! But in America most people don't have the knowledge or education to know better and are tricked by misinformation
100000000% we have the moooooost anxiety ridden lil baby who we got as a puppy from a rescue (her mom was pregnant and was the initial rescue). She only likes dogs, not people, so when we wanted to get her a friend because remote work was ending we decided to buy a dog from a (more) ethical breeder. I believe it would have irresponsible to adopt another dog who may have had just as many issues and that a bred puppy was a better bet, temperament-wise. Best decision we’ve made. When they both pass we will adopt again.
The way both ur brains work….. MWAH
I work in the dog industry and have been fostering for nearly ten years. I have a few pieces of advice for doodle owners:
1. Dont get a doodle
2. BRUSH YOUR DAMN DOG!!!!!!
3. Get some benadryl. I assume you fell for the "hypoallergenic" claim, its bullshit. Doodles shed.
The sheer amount of egg talk in these comments is insane
Not to say unethical breeding doesnt exist cause of course it does, but i really dont think kendall or sarah were well-versed enough for this topic. A lot of incorrect info handed out here. (I work with all kinds of dogs, bought and rescued.)
i was thinking the same, though i’m not far into it. hoping they delve into how important reputable breeders are
Bird owners to me are the third gender
I was so worried about my boy cat messing with his neuter incision but he ended up liking his neuter tattoo off instead
Also all both of my cats were rescued, 1 out of a dumpster and 1 had to be pulled out of the fender of a car, they're the biggest brats to ever exist
Adopt, don't shop 🥳

Kendahl! The same thing happened with my 20lb terrier’s DNA test. Came back 50% Great Dane 50% pit bull.
I now call her my toy Great Dane. 🦴
