My last two pups were true blue street mutts. One we found on the side of the road as an 8 week old puppy!! The other we got from pound at around a year old. They both lived 10+ years and were the best dogs!! |
Mixed breeds are definitely welcome here, and I don't care if they are called morkies or cheweenies or whatever. They are your dogs and you love them.
As others have said, I do have a problem with people breeding to a fad, rather than considering all the responsibilities of breeding healthy dogs that are guaranteed to always have a home. This is also a problem with many purebred dogs as well, sadly.
Also, many people here got their yorkies from pet stores, and didn't learn until later that their dog came from a mill.
Regardless of how we got here, we're here, and we're happy to have you.
