I have a yorkie/poodle cross. Though she wasn't bred on purpose it happened and I adopted her, yorkie dad and poodle mom. I've seen tons of those dogs from that post a lot lately though on craigslist and ebay and even breeder selling these designer dogs all dogs need love no matter purebred or not.

The OP isn't saying mixes in general are sickening -- I believe he is reacting to the particular breeds that were mixed and shown in this article. Some of them don't even look possible, and maybe some were photoshopped as he indicated above.

There are lots of members here with mixes and I think they are adorable. The dogs shown in this article, however, many made me gasp. They looked physically deformed and all I could think of is health issues.
