Which one of these designer dogs would you get if you could?

Hello everybody,

Don't really want to start a debate opposing the fervent anti-designer and the pro-hybrid but which one of these hybrid dogs would you get if you could?

I wouldn't buy any 'designer dogs' try the rescues, they have plenty of designer dogs looking for homes for the cost of a donation

I wouldn't buy any of them, either. I'll take a random shelter or "free to good home" Labrador mixed male puppy.

Yes, if you see the tiny text at the base of the post, a moderator deleted it, thus ruining the entire thread. It would have made more sense to delete the entire thread. Though I'd not buy any designer dog, so it doesn't matter.

I love dumb mutts and I cannot lie. I might consider a single cat from a breeder...but even then if I could find the same appearance at a shelter I'd go with that. Far too many dogs and cats put to death for lack of shelter space. Besides I will always have a bully breed, wouldn't even consider ahem "Designer" models.

I would never buy a " designer" dog. Call me a snob if you like but I much prefer my pure bred dogs although I would only consider buying one with a good pedigree, from a reputable, ethical breeder.

I dont have designer dogs , i have "mixture" dogs all from rescues.

Pip wasa stray is thought to be JRT with a bi of staffie.

Libby was supposed to be a rough coated Chi
She is tri coloured and rough coated but her body is chi.
Her attitude is chi.
Dibby was a stray and a mystery. he was in proportion but the size of a chi . He was tri colured but the tan on his face when grey . The most Sweetest natured dog I've ever met.
I had DNA test done and it was total rubbish ans so I'm none the wiser.

No DNA test can differentiate between breeds ... all dogs, irrespective of breed, have the same DNA.
