Of course mixes are cute. I love all dogs. But I will never condone breeding mixes on purpose. Any breeder that breeds mixes purposely is NOT a reputable breeder What's the purpose in breeding mixes? They are not a breed & don't have a standard so you can't breed "to improve the breed" which is the main reason to even think about breeding. The people breeding these dogs are not breeding for any purpose and are not trying to create a new breed - they are only breeding these dogs because they are unfortunately a fad right now and are selling for so much money. Reputable breeders breed to improve the breed & because they love the breed - no reputable breeder breeds mixes. And these "designer dogs" are NOT healthier than purebreds as some like to say. Many of our toy breeds share common genetic defects so these mixes are just as likely to get them as a purebred. You have a much higher chance of getting a healthy dog if you go to a reputable breeder that health screens their dogs. Any breeder (of purebreds or mixes) that doesn't screen their dogs has a higher chance of getting puppies with genetic defects. There is just no way I would support someone breeding mixes. There are so many unwanted animals in this world - millions die each year - and all these byb's are just contributing the the overpopulation. There are so many purebreds and "designer" mixes in shelters and rescue groups right now. If I wanted a mixed breed dog, I would adopt on through a rescue - but I can not condone those that breed them. If you want a mix, please adopt one that needs a home. Same things with a purebred I guess...I've seen you say that you don't care if your yorkie has papers - so why not adopt one? Please don't support bad breeders...find a reputable breeder that breeds for the right reasons or adopt one that needs a home.
