My lil Prissy Pants McGee is a Schnoodle, pekepoo, schnorkie, beagador, basset-poo, goldendoodle, mateschnoo, american hairless-poo

This made me spit my tea out

but I agree 100% with all you said! Often asked what Archie is so I just say "he's an Archie - part clown, part dustbin"

I have to add a story that fits here in this thread.

A about a year ago a co-worker and his girlfriend were ready to get a dog so he came to me because he knew I was all about rescue and adopting. Turned out that his girlfriend was dead set on a Puggle.

So I found a few in rescues and other Beagle/Pug mixes in shelters etc.
He started complaining about the adopting process and "Why do I have to be approved by the rescue before adopting blah.. blah.. this is going to take to long." I kept telling him to be patient and begging him not to go to a pet store. I even started sending him links to pictures from puppy mills and showed him pictures of how they are shipped in the back of trucks and some die while being shipped.
Suddenly he stopped talking to me about it. I thought he had finally realized that he just needs to be patient. The truth was that he and his girlfriend went to a pet store "Just to look" and they saw a Puggle and bought it.

He was afraid to tell me because he knew how mad I would be.
He had the dog for almost a WEEK before I found out. (through another co-worker)
THENNNNNN
Just about 2 months ago the same guy said he wanted to get a boxer and again, came to me. I found boxer puppies that were up for adoption, he was happy, I was happy.... then... just like the last time. I found out 4 days after that he bought a puppy from a breeder.

The bottom line...
Some people will NEVER get it, they are closed minded and will never change.

Dakota Sheepdogs are a new breed that is bred from English Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, Cocker Spaniels, and Poodles. The intention is to breed a perfect family dog! Being very smart, easy to train, gentle, loving, faithful, not at all shy or hyper, but having a nice, medium temperment. Fun, as far as playing ball with the kids, but also low to no shedding

OMG! Give me a FLIPPING Break already you BRAINLESS people that call yourself "breeders"!!!!!
Get a life and stop the madness!!!!
