i am VERY much against designer breeds. designer dogs are only a fad. a very unfortinate fad. a fad that makes millions of homeless dogs die in shelters because people want a tiny cuddly dog to carry around, dress up that has a cute breed name. a schnoodle(schnauzer/poodle) was recently put to sleep in my local shelter because no one adopted him. i'm sure if he was advertised in a petstore someone would have gladly paid thousands for him.

people argue that some designer breeds are hypoallergic and don't shed. there are PUREBRED dogs that are in shelters and at responsible breeders that don't shed either. for example the yorkshire terrier, silkie terrier, bichon frize, etc. why on earth would you want to spend $2000 on a mixed breed dog that does the same thing as a purbred dog for $200.
