And boost yet another irresponsible money grabbing back yard breeders bank balance while huge numbers of these dogs are in rescues everywhere ?
And why are rescues full of such dogs ? Because of the irresponsible money grabbing back yard breeders churning them out, flogging them to anyone who has a wad of money and dumping the rest, [ the one`s they can`t flog ], in to the rescue centre`s, and the one`s which have turned out nothing like the buyers wanted, [ because there is no way to know how a crossbreed will turn out in terms of predominant traits, size etc ], so off they go to a rescue as well but still came from the same source in the first place.

So I would advise if the OP or anyone else wanting a crossbreed `has got the cash`, please consider adopting from a rescue and donating the cash to them where it will save lives instead of to a breeder who will use it for a luxury holiday or whatever other perks they fancy and can finance because of breeding unethically

I actually think its up to the person who wishes to buy these dogs.
I have three crossbreeds my choice my money at the end of the day!
They make wonderful pets

well said patch

They are crossbreeds therefore have been unethically bred. The same crossbreed from a rescue would involve a donation of anything from £50 to £150 and that would be used to save more lives, that would be a `fair price`

they do - and so do purebreeds

i have one of each and i also agree with everything patch said....

my girl was free to a good home,the also bought her to me.Turned out she had a heart problem which requires daily medication for the rest of her life,but due to her small size and weight costs are minimal.This we discovered soon after getting her when she kept coughing/gagging.she was around 5years old when we got her,we have had her now for 5 years.

I have two crossbreeds now and had others before them. My choice, my money too - it went on their rescue adoption fee`s which has, along with every donation that goes with adoption, saved lives rather than funded more unethically bred pups to be churned out
Mine are wonderful pets too but I have`nt lined an unethical breeders pockets to have them

im sorry but thats a rubbish statement to make!! just because they are xbreeds doesn mean its a unethical breeding.Many so called registered purebreed breeders are crap and anything but ethical.There are as many puppy farms breeding kc reg dogs as any crossbreed breeders.

What makes you think other people with crossbreeds have gone to unethical breeders ?

Ooo... crossbreeds. Makes a nice change.

All crossbreeds are unethically bred.

All purebreds are ethically bred.
