Puggles, Labradoodles, Schnoodles, etc. Many people call them expensive mutts, products of illicit backyard breeders and worse.
But I think they are being very hypocritical. Look at the ancestry of two breeds.
Rat Terrier: Fox terrier, old English White terrier, Manchester Terrier, Beagle, Whippet, etc. Gee, the ratty started out as a designer dog? Why the AKC only recoginzed the breed in recent years.
Australian cattle dog was once a designer dog too! Dalmation, Old Smooth coated collie, kelpie, bull terrier, and dingo.
Who's to say that in fifty years the LABRADOODLE won't be an established breed and all the "controversey" will be a thing of the past!
Critics, you are so hypocritcal. Let's hear from the audience on this one, okay? Just curious about the opinions out there in AnswersLand. I have a purebred "mutt" of diverse and unknown ancestry. He's a sweetheart.
