we would not have the breeds we have today if we did not cross breed and with all the health problems pure pedigree dogs suffer from cross breeding makes healthier pets as long as the two breeds are simaliar

Why breed from so many different breeds? Why not concentrate on one or two breeds and dedicate yourself to bettering those breeds?

R.E crossbreeds....
Yes, it is true that we would not have the breeds we have today if we didn't cross breed, but the breeds today weren't made by accident. They were created for a job.

Why do you breed crossbreeds, if you aren't trying to create a 'better' breed?
(Hope that made sense, am rubbish at writing things down)
