Do you even understand what a champion is? It just means that they are an excellent example of the breed and a great representative. Why would you then mix them with another breed? It a crap shoot on what you'll get, you aren't going to get the "best" of both breeds, there's no telling what you'll get and while it might look like one or the other breed wise, it won't be a good example of either. I mean why would you want a yorkie head on a Shih Tzu's body or visa versa, what's the point? Beware of breeders who advertise champion lineage, it's just a marketing ploy. Many breeders breed mixes because they didn't buy breeding rights to their pet dogs, and therefore can't register the offspring with the AKC, so they just breed them with any available dog, and tell inspecting buyers that AKC doesn't register mixes. People who buy from breeders without breeding rights are the same as those that buy stolen property.
