    Wow, I only got 1 right. Just goes to show you, there's no difference. Except if you go to the shelter, your spending less money and saving a life. Doesn't going to the shelter sound better?

    Your score: 85%

    I don't think I can actually tell by the looks but the pictures.
    People who breed stupid dogs like that tend to take stupid pictures
    As to shelters who show the dogs having fun
    Because these people aren't good breeders they take pictures of their dogs usually on the couch or something too..

    I did the same too- 42% but the joke is- giving this the benefit of the doubt, I was looking at the bone structure of the dogs. The better the bone structure became the ones " from these caring breeders.." After awhile I started to laugh. Obviously they were not even using good ones of the breeds they were mixing- ...

    I didn't get any! And I know breeds pretty well. Chances are those dogs from shelters started out from a "breeder"

    They are the same mix but not a breeder made mutt. Only goes to show- they are less likely in this environment to use good representatives of any breed. We have a puggle in our shelter now.. who wants the dog??? She is sweet.. This designer cr*p is just a bunch of oppoturnist bast*ards... At the dogs expense. Long after a fad fades, the dogs are still alive, no longer wanted in their homes...
