You don't get dogs that breed true when you mix two or more breeds and get puppies and breed those, call it whatever designer breed comes to mind and sell puppies at some inflated price as rare.
Get a book about the various breeds that breeders have developed and you will find how it was done.
Breeding because they sell is not really the best reason in the world to breed.

Well said!!!!
