Granted. Intense selective breeding creates a dwarf cow to sell as designer pets. The process is excessively cruel and incestuous, and the dwarf cows are in constant pain, as well as stupid and easily angered. Animal rights groups see the creation of dwarf cows as more inhumane than beef production.

So the same as a bunch of dog breeds?

Yes, that's exactly what I was getting at. Thank you for stating it in plain text.
