It is good to see the different views tho and hope all the pups from the first post on here find good homes, regardless of price
Same here.

I think it's ironic that I'm being lectured for supporting irresponsible breeders by rescuing two mongrels from a shelter by someone who it seems owns a teacup yorkie.

Hardly (and she said she wouldnt spend thousands importing as it would mean debt, plus talking about purchasing from "breeders")

I agree with baileysblind and Malka. All the pups from rescue at that price I have seen have cost the rescue money, for a start they didn't breed them but are giving up their time, energy, using their cars, have other dogs to look after, websites to maintain, homechecks, vaccinations......and usually at least one of the pups had been ill and needed vet care that the breeders didn't want or couldn't pay for. Plus will help with neutering costs later in some instances. Plenty more overheads and if it more than covers the pups cost the there will be adult dogs that get help from that money.

Anti-mongrel attitudes contribute to the number of unwanted dogs just like irresponsible breeders do. A dog is a dog is a dog.

Wow - hate to tell you how much I paid for both my crossbreeds.. That £170 is no where near what we paid.

Couldn't you tell by the title what was going to come? We should have what another forum I have has and rules against bashing crossbreeds and mongrels. Yes, yes, I know, not really a bashing thread yadda yadda yadda, but it kinda is..

On the other hand Sadie cost her owners £5 and she's been the best dog they ever had

lol i wasn't lecturing you, you seem to have a problem with me because i do not share your view. I have not once said that the breed is a t cup, i said i have read that they are being advertised as a t cup or minuature thank you very much. i have no once put you down, tried to talk as though i am better than you or have an attitude with you, i have just disagreed with you opinion which i am entitled to. I am not anti mongrel i just "would not pay out a rediculous price for one" i actually am starting to think you are more anti towards me not this discussion as you are constantly having little digs towards me rather than just disagreeing. So what i have a pedigree dog with papers, i have stated that the kennel club have not recognised the breed as t cup or miniature, so where you get off trying to say that i think i have one i dont know. First you had a problem with Dobermann and now me, i think you need to take a breather and realise it is just a discussion and we are all entitled to our own opinion whether its the same or not isnt the end of the world really is it.
