Well yes I have - just a few times. But imagine I often walk my lil Yorkie with my large Black Russian. What I get most often is ooh's and aawh's most ppl get they are purebreed and even say those dogs are purebreeds aren't they? I respond yes they are. Then they say I guess they are expensive ---- I say yes but the initial cost to purchase is only a small dollop in the ongoing cost of keeping your dog healthy and happy.
And then sometimes they ask well how much would one of "those" dogs cost. And I respond it varies depending on whether you want a show/working dog or not. But at least with a purebreed you have a very good idea what you are getting. Personality, health issues etc. With a good breeder you will get lifetime support - u have questions concerns etc they are there for you.

I know that I'm lucky in a way because I never worry about someone trying to steal my Razzle. They would have to go through Magic and me first. Not very likely!
