Designer dogs give me a living!

The amount if cockerpoos, jackapoos, sprockets and labradoodles I see is amazing, I see next to no poodles though, and people are paying upto £1500 for these dogs, it astounds me, mind they all get a nice teddy cut, cos thats wat the owner wants

I'm not sure there's anything wrong with theses designer dogs, after all I own an original designer dog, he's a long dog, saluki x greyhound, mind I'm not sure anyone would part with £1500 for him, he's a bit thick after all

And as for dog theft, people round here, in the good old days wen lurches where proper working dogs, used to get them nicked and they changed hands for £400 plus (20 years ago)

I did see a pug and beagle cross that was very cute, I quite fancied that and my brother in law is after a poodle spaniel cross, of course if people want to pay those prices that's their choice, and you get a designer dog, could go badly wrong if you were not careful :innocent: I mean you could get a poodle crossed with a mastif and end up with a  very heavy dog with spindly legs, big muscly head and curls....ha ahaha :roflanim:

 :roflanim:  That made me laugh .... what a thought.


Met a labradoodle ... is that what you call them  ???  on holiday once. She was huge and so friendly .... a real bundle of joy. Her owner said she was very lively but adorable.

when I use my I pad it puts all sorts of rubbish that I do not intend to post, yest it was a bugle, nice and clever little dog, I bet they are hard to train and beagles or any hound run off at the slightest sent!!!!
It takes all sorts and its all sorts we get!!! When I was a little girl I think it was considered very posh to have a pedigree dog now its reversed!!
