| Knock it off already.. I find it really rude when people on here say that a mixed breed or "mutt" is not as smart, or deserves not as good as a life as a purebred. Just so you know I have a yorkie poo, and he is very smart and the greatest companion I've ever heard. And I would love to have a Yorktese. I'm not saying that purebred dogs are not as good as a mixed bred, all I'm saying, is if you have nothing nice to say dont say it at all. Sorry, just had to vent......

| I can honestly say I can't recall reading a single post on YT where they were putting down mutts. Now, I have read where some have issues with the purposeful breeding of mixes, but that to me, is different than picking on the mixes themselves. I'm sorry if this has happened to you.

| I don't believe I saw that thread and I guess I am glad I didn't for many reasons. Any dog, pruebreed or mixed, to me, is not better than the other. It's just a matter of preference. I have had both and Buddy is no better than the mixes I had. I loved them all the same and the mixes were just as loving and smart as Buddy. Actually I find the prue breed more needy in many ways than the mixes. I hate the word "Mutts". To me anyone who uses it only has love for the pruebreed. There are no mutts in this world only dogs made up of more than one breed just like a Yorkie is. All deserve a loving home and a mommy to call their very own. |

You didn't offened me in anyway. I posted after you did. I have called my own dogs mutts playfully of course but don't let anyone else. That's like calling our kids a brat but don't let anyone else. I didn't see the original thread either. You just gotta love them all no matter what. | |

| I LOVE mixed breeds!! When I was a little, we had a little mixed breed, well he was maybe 30lbs, I don' tknow i was a really little girl, but he was the best dog ever! He had a long husky like tail, short little legs w/ a chubby body like a weiner dog, and a long snout. I think he was part shepard or something..but that dog was my favorite. I would love to adopt a mixed breed in the future. |

Bella Boo & Diggy Too! Donating GS Member | huh?? I too have never read anything derogitory about a mixed breed??? I would have been very offended if I had, and if there is a post on here saying something bad about them I'd like to know.

| I'm not trying to start a controversy here. I just saw something that upset me about mixed breeds, not going to say any names, because again I dont want a huge ordeal. I just want to let that person know they are rude and disgusting. And i love my baby even though he's a "Mutt", which by the way I hate that word. A dog is a dog, no matter what kind, color, shape, or size. They all deserve love and care.
