Oooooohhhhhh, that's so pathetic.
Why, oh why, would anyone intentionally do that? Oh, never mind ... for the money.
But why, oh why, would anyone pay thousands of dollars for that? Seriously ... I have never understood that.
You can get a mixed breed dog at a shelter for $50. Make up a trendy, designer name for it if that's what floats your boat, and tell all your friends it's a "Rare, smooth-coated Australian golden border labrasnorkapooie". Whatever.
But don't buy a mixed breed dog from some backyard breeder who is intentionally bringing more mixed breed dogs into a world where tens of thousands of dogs already die every day. Please. Please adopt. Then call it whatever cutesy designer name you want.
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
