Saw this on Sportsshooter this morning.... interesting story about this pooch. Sad about the genetic defect and the fact that she won't live a normal length life.

But goodness...look at this.

This dog is ripped.

she's pitiful looking. Pretty much the same feeling I get when I see human body builders...

I agree Tom... except that it's nothing her owner did to her or like bodybuilders, they do to themselves. Some pooches just have a run of bad luck.

I love the last two photos...of her just playing and being a dog.

I've never seen anything like that in a dog. The closest I've seen is a couple of nights ago when my dog found a possum in HER back yard. Well, not quite as muscular but I bet it looked that way to the possum.

if you read one of the comments someone said they hope that they would breed her just so that defect is passed on.

that is sad.
