Oh yes, I think I figured that out by the "Aren't these the designer dogs everyone wants?" The almighty buck. And we wonder how Puppymills started.
If you truly love your dogs then you'll keep them as your pets and you won't let greed take over by breeding for mixes. There are too many mixes as well as badly bred pure breds that end up in rescue or shelters and that's the lucky ones.

Mutt: a pup of a litter from which the breed of the mother is unknow- and father not know for sure at all!
Hybrid- a informed, planned breeding between 2 know breeds to achive a desired result!!
this is the basic things - I have read on this
society has done hybrid breeding forever- the term hybrid/ designer has somehow got to be an issue
Both are good if done the right way! Both are bad if not!
I am not on either side- just hope all breeders- have healthy pups!
