The ONLY reason anyone should breed is to preserve the breed. Money and fun are not reasons. It's selfish to breed for only money/fun when there are indeed plenty of dogs in the world dying because of lack of homes. Mixed breed breeding (cross breed, mutt...they're BOTH mixed breeds, and one is not more quality than the other) is done ONLY for money...I haven't seen ONE reputable designer dog breeder. Not one. And I doubt their existence-anyone who TRULY cares for dogs doesn't breed their low quality purebred bitch to another low quality purebred sire. Also, since they are breeding MUTTS they can't test for any breed-related diseases, meaning that the litter could pick up on BOTH of breed's sicknesses. On top of that, I DARE all designer dog supporters to go on petfinder.com, look at all the "yorkiepoos" and "maltipoos" and "puggles" and tell me that they AREN'T dying in shelters and sitting in rescues.
Plus...
What kind of registry is going to call a dog a "morkie" or a "labradoodle"? Honestly, in my opinion, it just sounds ridiculous. Yorkie Poos are things yorkies produce when they need to go.
Think to our little yorkies. Did their breeders call them Malt-a-Skyes? No. They called what they were at the time: mixed breeds. When they were recognized, they were dubbed the yorkshire terrier.
More food for thought.

??? Does this person breed dogs? If so, then instead of selling them, just give them away being its not about $$$. And, If not then just sell them for what you have into them...actual cost of raising the litter divided by # of pups to equal the sale price....JMO...more food to chew.
It goes back to people selling their animals for what they feel they are worth...or atleast a fair price.
