That being said, I never said I looked down upon or bashed anyone having a mixed breed dog, and notice I never called them mutts, as many other people do. If you want a morkie or any other mixed breed dog, adopt one, don't purchase one. Purchasing one from a breeder who breeds them, you are just supporting them exploiting their animals for money. |
Lindzorz, read the above quote to get clarification.
To the above quoted posts, I want to add:
If nothing can be guaranteed when breeding two purebred dogs (no guarantees in size, color, etc. all is a guesstimate based on lots of research) what guarantee will you have when mixing two different breeds?
In other words, a person should be very leery when a breeder promises the sky, the moon and the stars.
