Designer Dog Breeds

Malka posted this in her Stories from around the web thread, but I reckon it's worthy of a discussion in itself: http://time.com/designer-dogs/



Interesting that they say how certain crosses are to alleviate certain problems with breeds - also interesting that when you speak to a lot of people with cross breeds they seem to think they are getting a healthier animal.

Wonder if pure-bred breeders, breed clubs and societies are taking note?

Actually Azz, if ALL breeders AND the KC adhered to compulsory health testing and there was zero tolerance on registering litters that were grossley inbred and from non health tested parents things may get better, till then, things won't change.

Yeah, it's a shame we don't have similar laws to Sweden..
