I just found out that a Bull Boxer is concidered a breed. It is just a mix between a boxer and, pit bulls, bull dogs, and any other bull breeds. We don't need any more breeds of dogs. Is a bull boxer just another 'designer breed'?

Well is it considered a registered breed or a designer breed?? Because designer breeds are just mixes of popular breeds to feed the demand of dog-hungry consumers
I am not sure. :confused: Here is the link to where I found it.... http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/bullboxer.htm
Oh dog breed info will list all "breeds" regardless of whether they're regstered or not. For "official" breeds check sites like the AKC or UKC! :)
Oh ok! Thanks :)
Is there a CKC?
If you are in America the CKC usually stands for the Continental Kennel Club, which is the registering body most usually used by BYB and puppy mills that for one reason or another can't get AKC papers on their dogs.
In Canada, there is the Canadia Kennel Club, which is like our AKC here.
The BullBoxer is just another designer breed bred by people out for a buck. It is not a recognized breed by the AKC. (Not that AKC means all that much, lots of BYB still have AKC dogs that don't even look like breed standard and continue to breed them anyway).
Oh, well I live in the US and I noticed that CKC dogs are cheaper than AKC by quite a bit.
Yes they are, but steer clear of them if you are looking for a puppy. If someone can't qualify with their dogs to have AKC registration, there is something quite fishy or bad about their breeding operation. AKC doesn't even check to insure that the dogs meet breed standard so I wouldn't intentionally buy a CKC registered puppy. It's just surely giving either a BYB or puppy mill money and making sure those poor parents keep on being breeding machines.
Exactly. And don't get the CKC confused with the Canadian registry, which is also the CKC!!
Oh, ok. Thank for the information! My dad possibly will be getting a dog in the spring. We were thinking a dachshund. We've had two mini dachshunds before. Very hard to potty train though. We aren't particularly looking for registered dogs, as they are too expensive. So we are gonna go to the st. cloud shelter and look for one.
Getting a dog from the shelter is best if you aren't looking to spend the money on a puppy from a responsible breeder who does all breed appropriate health testing and only breeds to better that breed. Buying an unregistered dog in the paper or online or from a CKC (Continental, not Canadian, Kennel Club) breeder, only helps furhter the horrid conditions those dogs live in. Not to mention, shelter dogs need good homes. Good luck with the adoption.
