Yeah, it bites.. I have no real desire to ever own a purebred with papers and professionally show. I just think that's boring.. I prefer just loving your dog for being who it is. It would be cool to own a purebred, but I think a mix is better. You can, in a sense, some weird way, own two 'purebreds' at once. ..... Or not... hahaQuote:

My first thought was ACD/ BC x aswell ;). What a little cutie.
