So people decide to go through a breeder. If she went to the pet store she could find what she is looking for, so I see no reason not to help her find a good breed who just happens to breed a mix. and lots of hobby breeders breed only one kind of mix.
Stop hating on the mixes.  It is going to continue because people want them and I personally see nothing wrong with it (some mixes)..
I also want to add that I personally would never breed a yorkie with anything other than another yorkie just because they are wonderful and perfect as they are  |
It is going to continue because people continue to buy them! I have no problems with mixed breeds, I do know no reputable breeder intentionally breeds mixes! Yes, she can go to any pet store and buy what she wants, but does that make it right? As soon as she does, another one takes that ones place! That goes for all dogs, not just mixes! I don't know any GOOD breeder to suggest to her, the ones I know, along with myself, don't mix breed!
