Dogs are the example of our worst work period. Even within certain breeds we've taken it beyond to ruin. Top of mind is a St Bernard, once a proud working dog now doesn't have the breathing or cardiovascular to do the job it used to excel at or even moderate exercise.

I hadn't heard about this. Is this the result of inbreeding, selecting for some deleterious trait, lazy breeding practices, or something else?
