Jack claimed that the vet had informed him that Hope was a beagle-collie mix, and expressed frustration that the breeder had duped him.

	The depth of Jack's neglect was laid bare on an 13 April 2022 cooking video, where he candidly admitted that Hope was not house-trained.

	These dogs are severely inbred, resulting in the "molten deformed looks" that are apparently quite prized. Inbreeding in pit bull-type dogs is often used by some breeders to "fix" profitable traits: oversized heads, crushed muzzles, heavy muscle, squat bodies, bowed limbs, rare coat colours, and "tight" pedigrees - that buyers are meant to read as quality, rather than a family tree shaped like a paperclip.<ref>https://www.sparkpaws.com/blogs/community/inbred-pitbulls-here-s-what-you-should-know</ref> In Exotic Bully and Micro Bully lines, this has encouraged increasingly extreme body shapes, because close-kin breeding makes the desired look more predictable, while also giving harmful recessive genes the red-carpet treatment. The worst examples are often described online as "molten" or "melted": dogs with sagging folds, twisted limbs, barely-there muzzles, huge skulls, breathing trouble, eye disease, skin problems, joint pain, and the general structural integrity of a dropped pudding. The "molten" look is therefore not a genuine breed feature, so much as the end product of inbreeding and extreme body-shape selection being allowed to run the kennel like a cursed Etsy shop.<ref>https://rockykanaka.com/bred-to-extremes-examining-the-ethical-quandary-of-exotic-bullies</ref>		These dogs are severely inbred, resulting in the "molten deformed looks" that are apparently quite prized.

The Scalfani family has seen its share of pet '''dogs''' over the years, but any canine unlucky enough to land in their hands is not exactly in for a life of tail-wagging bliss.

	These dogs are severely inbred, resulting in the "molten deformed looks" that are apparently quite prized. Inbreeding in pit ~~bull–type~~ dogs is often used by some breeders to "fix" profitable traits: oversized heads, crushed muzzles, heavy muscle, squat bodies, bowed limbs, rare coat colours, and "tight" pedigrees - that buyers are meant to read as quality, rather than a family tree shaped like a paperclip.<ref>https://www.sparkpaws.com/blogs/community/inbred-pitbulls-here-s-what-you-should-know</ref> In Exotic Bully and Micro Bully lines, this has encouraged increasingly extreme body shapes, because close-kin breeding makes the desired look more predictable, while also giving harmful recessive genes the red-carpet treatment. The worst examples are often described online as "molten" or "melted": dogs with sagging folds, twisted limbs, barely-there muzzles, huge skulls, breathing trouble, eye disease, skin problems, joint pain, and the general structural integrity of a dropped pudding. The "molten" look is therefore not a genuine breed feature, so much as the end product of inbreeding and extreme body-shape selection being allowed to run the kennel like a cursed Etsy shop.<ref>https://rockykanaka.com/bred-to-extremes-examining-the-ethical-quandary-of-exotic-bullies</ref>		These dogs are severely inbred, resulting in the "molten deformed looks" that are apparently quite prized.
