Do you know the beagle production has gone up in 2020 !! and I bet you aren't aware of the reason.

Read this Through !!

The beagle dog as we know it today did not exist till 150 years back. This breed has been crossed with other breeds as per the needs of the human whose best friend it wants to be.

A beagle is from the hound dog species. A hound dog is useful for hunting. They have a keen sense of smell. The earliest known variety of Beagle dog, was a small pocket size dog, a breed found in Greece and brought to England in the 1700s. Sometime in mid-18th century, when hunting increased in popularity and bigger dogs became the preferred trail companions, this small pocket size beagle was useless for man, and eventually became extinct by 1901. Man Infact crossed this pocket size beagle with larger dog breeds such as Staghounds, and eventually after trial and error, I assume, created the Foxhound. As needs further changed at the turn of the century, man didn’t need a hunting friend but a farming helper, the 1840s brought the re-development of four new beagle species popular in small farms. I assume from my reading that the current beagle species as we see it, looks nothing like the breed of 1840s. The beagle breeds have been further modified and developed for increased docility and amenability.

When you read the above, what you have to be sensitive about is that it is not a product that is being developed in labs. These are dogs just like your doggie that have faced lab trials. When a new breed is made, many cross experiments fail, leading to animals being born that are physically disabled or have very low immunity and in either case don’t have a good life. Life energy is the same in all of us but as humans we really do bully the smaller species.

Not just true for dogs, humans have altered miserably the natural selection of species for all “lower” species. Case in point is the mulberry silk worm, which has forgotten to fly, because generations of its ancestors have been produced for commercial use in which they kill the worm while it in in the cocoon as that makes softer silk. So now, even if the mulberry silk worm is allowed to rise from its sleep in the cocoon, and come out as a pretty moth, it would not know how to fly! We have all learned about how the caterpillar becomes a butterfly – well humans have ruined the whole magic for this worm! Humans find it so difficult to change even the smallest tiniest most useless habits about themselves, and here was a species equipped to transform its shape and form totally and just because we loved the bed it created for itself, we heartlessly kill it in its sleep.

Also breeds of cattle and various farm animals have been developed/engineered with the sole purpose to give more produce to humans. The Holstein etc. variety are just milk producing cattle and no one who understands A1 and A2 milk would let you compare this variety with Indian Desi Cows. Ken Robinson, Infact, takes this logic further to say, that with the education system of 1950s and household values, we have manufactured children suitable for factory assembly line work and fed them with junk ideologies of more production means more happiness.

Puppy farms, a cute sounding name for a place that artificially breeds dogs, have seen a mighty increase in numbers in 2020. Post lockdowns, Indian families have awakened to a latent need for home pets. As homes are smaller, breeds that shed less, smell less and have good immunity are being manufactured as demand still exceeds supply.

Above is just a perspective I thought you might like to read.
