Breeders are now breeding various breeds of dogs with poodles in order to try to make the dogs not shed. Poodles don't shed their hair, and this is the trait they are going after. The problem is genetics does not work that way, and really all you are creating is a mutt, not a breed. I just dont think its right to charge hundreds of dollars for a mixed breed, falsley claiming its a new purbred breed. I think these breeders need to read up on genetics to understand that if one dog doesn't shed, and one dogs does, mixing them won't always produce a dog that doesn't shed.
