I however do hate designer crosses. My friend has a *!#%!@ zhu cross jack russel! a jack *!#%!@! can u believe it! However I would like to add that the jack russel, staffy and some other breeds were cross breeds and only became kennel club material about 20 years ago so ......... BUT there are breeds that have become extinct because of cross breeding. So there are good and bad points but breeding just for profit is rediculous! But I do love my crosses!

1 solution would be to make all breeders register pups and supply documents to prove it, if the owners of the dam n the sire both registered the mating this could be cross referenced so no more pups could be inter bred what I mean is they could not mate a pup from this pairing with any pup from either side .

But I meant if someone wanted to breed dogs that werent purebred and didnt have problems, I dont have anything against it, I think they can do what they want as long as they can rear them ok, there are many more important issues in the world to worry about really.

I seen this discussion ages ago and thought it was quite nasty lol Arnt most breeds today crossed somewhere down the line like the long haired st bernard was crossed with a newfoundland to get the long coat, and thats just 1 example It doesnt matter whether its a cross or not you should be looking at its personality and whether the dog makes you happy dogs sre companion whether they have KC papers or not My two dogs are pure breeds but only because i no how big they will be and there breeds charecteristics

There are just as many dodgey pure bred breeders out there as there are cross breeders. Kitty was also right in the sence that cross breed dogs are generally on the whole healthier because they arnt so inbred. I think in the future you should stick to things that you know alot about, there is no need for rudeness and ignorance, I find you highly immature.

I think the whole point of this discussion is related to so called 'Designer dogs' and the money hungrey people who breed them. Crossbreds are at the root of most breeds today. As for health problems look no further than the showing world; they have a lot to answer for! It doesn't matter one bit whether your dog is a pedigree or a bitza,they are all dogs. We know there are unscrupulous people out there who breed irresponsibly, we know there are some who only look at a dog to access how much the puppies will fetch. They have always been with us and always will. So can it with all the ranting guys and let's get this discussion back on intelligent lines. Xleper

Don't they just! Our local RSPCA shelter had quite few the last time I went there (not that I go that often because I want to bring every animal home). When it comes down to it a crossbred is a crossbred whether it be a cockpoo, a chichipoo or a Heinz 57. It's the same in the cat world; how many bengal crosses can there be? With cats it's a little different 'cos if a calling cat wants to get out and party with the boys she'll find a way. And I'm convinced wandering toms all carry concealed crowbars. I'm not against cross-breeding but I am against irrisponsable breeders and owners. If cross-breeding didn't happen we wouldn't have all the pedigree breeds we have today. All these dogs were bred with a purpose in mind; shepherds, guards, hunting dogs etc but with some of these so-called breeders the only purpose is to make money and the ultimate good of the puppies produced is only secondary. Before everyone starts shouting take a breath and think of some of the ads we've seen here on Preloved. The vast majority love their animals and have only the dogs good in mind but there are a few who obviously don't. And we are never going to change that.
