Why is most pugs and chiwawas dont even walk these days? They just get carried around in handbags to good look good on photos.

I have a cross between a german pointer and bedlington terrior and he is the perfect dog. He would put up a fight against a pit bull and run almost as quick as a grey hound and has a sense of smell almost as good as a spaniel, yet most people think he should be stopped from breeding.

I can tell you from experience he is the perfect hunting dog. And all the breeders producing dogs that serve no purpose but to make money should be stopped breeding no?
 
Right now having tiny toy breeds and designer dogs is a fad. Fads come and go. While breeds are popular, people capitalize on this and breed them to make cash. If there's a market, there's always a supplier.

When the fad dies out, people who truly love and are dedicated to these breeds will clean up the mess and continue to preserve them.
 
Just because YOUR dog displays traits that you like, does not mean that another dog of the same mix, or even his offspring, will display those traits. He is a mixed breed dog and will not produce offspring with any predictable traits. There are already many established purebreds that make great hunting dogs that can predictably produce more good hunting dogs.


Pugs and Chihuahuas served an original purpose when they were first created (besides accessories). These are now established breeds with predictable traits and qualities.

People who breed for profit only should be stopped, yes.. but there are people who are breeding because they love those particular breeds and put alot of time and money into their dogs to assure they are breeding healthy, quality animals.
 
I bet your dog is a perfect dog, but that doesn't give you a sound reason to breed him, he is a mutt.
 
iam gonna tell you some thing i own chihuahua's and not jus for crap like that
 
You sound to me like someone who hasn't got a clue what they're talking about.
Educate yourself and come back with an intelligent question.
 
So the whole point of this is that you want to breed your mutt, NEUTER your dog, only an irresponsible BYB would breed a mutt


And Chi's and pugs are bred because they can make excellent companions

oh and learn how to spell
 
My aunt has an ankle biter.. sorry chiwawa. I hate the bloody thing. I see people on here saying they want ''quality'' when buying their next dog and it makes me sick.

I have 2 heinz 57s and they're the most loveable pair of idiots you're likely to meet. Goblin is also an expert digger and helps me in the garden frequently. =P

Wow 2 thumbs down in less than a minute... clearly my ''mutts'' should be put down... bloody snobs.
 
Pugs and chihuahuas were bred mostly as companion animals.

I don't know a single pug or chihuahua owner who carry their dogs around in purses or use them as a status symbol. They have legs, they can walk, a responsible owner knows that.

Don't bash a breed because a few celebrity owners have acted irresponsibly with them.
