A lunatic who calls himself “Dr. DNA” sparked outrage after boasting he invented a new breed of “designer dogs” — ignoring numerous calls from experts who say his grotesque operation will destroy the lives of the innocent pups.
Gary Hemming, an unlicensed dog breeder with no veterinary qualifications, bragged on social media that he morphed the DNA of a Dalmatian and a French bulldog to create what he claims is a huge “wave” of fashionable designer dogs that he hopes to sell across the world, according to the Daily Record.
Hemming, a 41-year-old from Edinburgh, Scotland, said the creation from his “Pokadot” factory is the future of his new breed: Pokadot Frenchie.
“Vets across the UK are extremely concerned about a number of unscrupulous breeders ignoring the health and welfare of animals by cashing in on the huge demand for ‘fashionable’ puppy breeds that have been bred to have extreme features like excessive skin wrinkles or flat face,” British Veterinary Association president Dr. Elizabeth Mullineaux said, according to the outlet.
“These animals may look ‘cute’ or unique, but they often experience significant health problems and a lifetime of suffering. Such irresponsible breeding has been linked to unregulated dog breeding services like canine fertility clinics, which have been popping up across the country.”
The demonic breeder shared a photo of a distraught-looking white dog, with black spots and a distended belly, named “Mr. Pokadot” on social media, proudly referring to the pup as “the first and only velvet bigrope pokadot in the world.”
“He was born with a natural no tail. Yes, we used a Dalmatian to make him many generations ago, this program we have been working on for many years,” Henning, who refers to himself as Gari Ferrari and Dr. DNA, posted, according to the outlet.
“And only now bringing it to the market.”
In another post, Hemming said, “2025 is the year of Pokadot Frenchie in all colors and patterns, including new shades — lemonshade and orangeshade,” adding that he’s in no rush to perfect the new breed.
He has been condemned by the Scottish government and animal experts who say the dogs will be plagued with disease and suffer a short life due to his irresponsible breeding, the outlet reported.
The BBC first exposed the Scot in January 2023 for creating the genetically modified “Frankenstein” pups in an investigation that revealed his intention is to combine every marketable characteristic to create the rarest dog in the world — what Hemming calls the “unicorn dog,” according to BBC.
The investigation found that Hemming, who was previously convicted of robbery and domestic assault, bred hairless French bulldogs — using American and English bulldogs — which he then sold on social media.
The recent announcement prompted a renewed push for the Scottish government to take action against unregulated dog breeders like Hemming.
Officials announced in August they would draft new laws to regulate any businesses offering dog fertility services and outlaw unlicensed dog breeders after a nationwide campaign from vets and animal welfare organizations, the outlet reported.
