Lets get the record straight first..... I don't support BYB at all, nor do I support those who breed animals without the proper knowledge of doing so.
That's the problem with most of you....always jumping the gun at those you don't know or have never met..... and for you to say im uneducated at breeding?.... I'm a vet and can probably tell you more than you ever wanted to know about dogs and breeding.

well if you are a vet you will know the importance of health testing and only breeding to better the breed, i am sorry but a experienced breeder knows more than a vet about breeding, vets only help out when there is a prob, and doesnt have any wear near as much to do with whelping and raising puppys as a good breeder does

No one is doing that you are mixing things up, mutts are great but there are enough in rescue more do not need to be added! We do love all dogs but we are just against adding to rescue, because we love dogs we care about their welfare!! If we didnt care then we would say all byb go ahead we are with you!
i am sorry but you havent yet given us any reason to think that you are a vet and not just saying that!

I can definately see your point here. The amount of rubbish that people go on about for mixed breeds here is preposterous. It's like people believe that all the pure breeds just appeared out of nowhere.
Honestly if people didn't have the courage and interests to cross a variety of breeds in order to get the result from the dogs that they were chasing then we would only have one breed of dogs.
No I don't breed crosses, I don't breed anything, all dogs I own are desexxed ASAP. I don't even own a cross bred dog both my dogs are Staffordshires. I do however understand breeding for a purpose, if I wanted a dog to use for a specific purpose such as pig hunting then I would never use a pure bred. There is no pure bred dog that would do as good a job as one that is bred specifically for the job, all the breeds that were bred for the job in the past have been diluted too much now to be used.
I don't think people should be randomly breeding anything in order to make money but I also don't think people should take this up as some kind of jihad, there is a hell of a lot more important things you could dedicate your time to.

breeding isnt something to be taken lightly, people who breed just because do not need sticking up for, no one thinks pure dogs just appeared, but there are enoigh probs with byb at the mo without people breeding designer breedes, yes all breeds have to start somewhere, but we have enough pure dogs to concerate on without adding more
just posting to cause trouble.
No one here has ever said they hate mutts. I have a mutt and many people do and they lov ethem but that is no reason for a perosn to purposely breed them. And wake up,really,it is not as easy as breeding a lab and a poodle to make a new breed
seriouesly.
These people are not breeding for a purpose,but for the money. And dogs are what a devote my time and money to and I consider the rescueing I do a pretty noble cause,its not something worth dropping and agreeing to disagree when it costs dogs their lives,sorry. I'd almost like to know what is more important,people cna control themselves,animals need the help.

HELLOOOOOOOO im bashing the breeder who purposely breeds mixed breed dogs. When you can go and adopt that same mix at the pound for $50-$100. Its disgusting these breeders inbreed and overbreed their dogs. There is no betterment of the breed going on here. I OWN A MUTT (not yelling there btw) so I obviousely love dogs no matter the breed. I feel badly for these poor dogs my neighbor is breeding but it could all be dealt with fine if she just spayed and neutered her dogs and stopped BREEDING MUTTS.
If you want a mutt go to the pound. There is nothing wrong with a pound dog mutt or not they are just as good as these "designer dogs".

You're right! I haven't given you any reason to believe that i am vet, nor do i care what you choose to believe ...... it is what it is.
I search numerous animal forums on my spare time. I came across this forum and have seen nothing but bashing. I agree about BYB, but dont agree on bashing the "mutts" daily.

Ok I see what your getting at. BUT back then there was a need for different breeds to do different jobs.It was rare back then for them btw to be breeding dogs just for companions though it was done it was again RARE. Also back then we did not have the outbreak we have today of adandoned dogs in shelters and strays on the street. So why add to the problem? I understand some purebred breeders SOME who I still breeding dogs true to their working lines healthy and well off. But these new "Designer dogs" are nothing just a way to make a buck.
I mean lets think about how are these dogs helping to improve society? And don't even get at me with the Labradoodle being a service dog because that project was aborted and now people are just breeding them for pets. Most of these dogs are little mixbreeds. Why not just go and buy yourself a Pug or a Poodle or a Chi purebred or rescue a mix? Because people are shallow and they would rather be up on the latest "fads".
So you see breeding these dogs is pointless.
