I have to say I'm kinda surprised at myself but I do agree with this. Let me explain why...... I absolutely love my yorkie but I also have a collie and she's awesome too although her hair is an issue a couple times a year. I said I always like having a bigger dog for the protection aspect of it. My collie makes me feel safe and protected. She's not aggressive in the least but I truely believe she would give her life for me and my family. My yorkie would too the problem is, she couldn't do much damage. But the problem is all the bigger dogs seem to shed and I really don't want a dog who sheds. Well, yesterday at the park I saw this dog and I knew it must've been a cross. We asked the woman and she says it's a goldendoodle. A golden retreiver poodle cross. I think that's going to be my next big dog. It had the poodle hair so no shedding but it was about the size of my collie maybe a little bigger. Does that make me a bad person? It's not any desire to have a designer breed, just the convenience for me and really because of allergies, it's not even purely convenience.....
Anyways, that's my two cents.....
