Dog owners have actually been released with a caution over types with overstated figures.
Hope Rescue have actually contacted Britons to prevent purchasing types with functions such as thick nose ropes, fluffy coats and preferable colouring.
It follows 38 French Bulldogs were transferred to the organisation by Cardiff City Council after it was granted ownership of the dogs as part of a seizure.
Speaking on GB News, the creator of the charity, Vanessa Waddon, informed Martin Daubney and Pip Thomson about the heartbreaking seizure under the Animal Welfare Act 2006.

“Most of the dogs coming in had breathing problems, they’re going to need surgery just to live normal lives”, she said.
“They also have problems with their eyes. They have problems with just being a dog, they get out of breath exercising.
“We’re really urging the public to not buy these dogs. Don’t promote the demand.”
Social media is viewed as an essential factor to the concern by Waddon, who says the types are “glamorised” online.
“People think this look is cute, but even holding one of them, you can hear how bad their breathing is.
“Some people think that is cute, and social media has gone a long way to glamorising that.
“We’ve got celebrities sharing their dogs to Instagram, and a lot people see that and think that’s the dog they want to have.”
The seizure becomes part of a continuous prosecution case that included a litter of young puppies, and a greatly pregnant female, called Nana, who later on delivered in a foster home.
Waddon went on to go over the sell information, declaring those offering the dogs are just worried about revenues.
She informed GB News: “This is about breeding wealth and not health.
“We need to enforce the breeding regulations, but it takes time. But what we’re telling the public now is to not fuel the demand.
“Go to a rescue if you actually want a French Bulldog, rescues are inundated with this breed right now.
“If you can’t get one from a rescue, choose a different breed.”
