Re: Why against cross breeds?

In this credit crunch I do believe that all breeding should be curtailed until the recession improves and people are more able to care for the dogs they have, whether pedigree or crosses.



Back to the "I just want to" reason for breeding dogs which these days I feel is very selfish and uncaring. I have homes for my pups so I care not one jot for those in rescue.

Sorry, I forgot I need to put minute detail to avoid anyone deliberatey misconstruing my posts.

A poster above, on my suggestion that maybe no breeding (inlcuding KC registered) should take place, replied saying that the "breeds we love" would soon cease to exists. If "we love" is a reason to to breed KC registered dogs then why should it not be a reason for crossbreeding?

I did not mention "pedigree" as my crosses have pedigrees and I did not wish the issue to be confused.
