good luck on that....i have been on MANY different dog forums and you get the same thing everywhere you go....some are cool about things others are not....so far i have found this site to be the most "accepting" of others than the 10 or so others i check out.....and i don't own a "designer" breed.....

when it comes time for the designer dogs, i really have no issues in it other than the price these people charge and that people out there are "suckered in to believing they have a one in a million, special "breed and will pay an astronomical amount of money for it....a gal i know just sold a litter of 9 Puggles at $550 a pup....her "reasoning" behind it?...b/c people will pay it, and this way she can get her 3 dogs fixed.....and, she claims she didn't need to have any health checks done as they are mixes (puggle-puggle breeding)....say, what?....so, go to the HS and rescue one from there for alot less.....

but, as long as the people will pay it, the idiot breeders will breed/charge it......

and i'm not attacking anyone here, just making a statement....

Grrr... pet peeve: They are NOT hybrids. A hybrid is a cross between two different species (i.e., donkey + horse = mule). These dogs are simply mixed breeds. "Hybrid" is simply another term to get people to think they're buying something special.
