just my little ole two cent...lol
in there years of doing shelter work rarely do we have the small breed mixes in. most people do keep them. the only time i have ever seen small breeds wether mixed or not was a dog who had a severe health problem or is extremely old and needs more attention then the average 9-5er can give. im sure there are instances when im wrong..but the smaller breeds are always wanted and the crosses are becoming more and more poplar and one day some of these may be recongized as purebred. every dog starts from scratch..and the breeders work on perfecting it to a breed that is desired. |
