Somehow this didn't post when we first published it in July! First it was #Scandoval and now it's a #Grahamdal?? We don't usually talk reality TV here, but when the story about a dog belonging to James Kennedy and Raquel (Rachel) Leviss, reality TV stars from Vanderpump Rules, hit the news, we had to look into it.

Have you had a dog act out in this way after a break-up or divorce? What about another drastic change in your dog's life? We'd love to hear about your experience in the comments and how you were able to help your dog cope.

Flat-faced, or brachycephalic, dog breeds face challenges that go beyond simply having a harder time staying cool in hot weather. Breeds like Frenchies, English Bulldogs, Pugs, and others, often struggle to breathe daily due to breeding for more wrinkles or a certain look that is appealing to consumers. Did you know that many of these breeds have malformed noses or palates that make it very difficult for them to live without pain? With the rise in popularity of these breeds, especially French Bulldogs, we want people to understand what they may be faced with when adding one of these breeds to their family. If you have experience with a brachycephalic dog breed, please share your experience in the comments!
