This designer dog thing is out of control. I looked on Kijiji and found "doodle" mixes selling for more than the purebred varieties! If you want a poodle, get a poodle. If you want a lab, get a lab. If you want a mix, fine, just don't call it a breed!
My dog is 1/2 lab 1/2 husky. Does that mean I can call it an F1 Lasky or Huskador and sell it for $800? No, because this is what is called a "mutt".
I love it when the back yard breeders of these things claim that both parents of their mutt litter are "prebred and registered". That's great. It means nothing to the buyer of the puppy, which is unregisterable, because it is a MUTT. A registered dog is valuable, because you can show it and breed it and sell the pups to members of the AKC or UKC to better the breed. The designer dog is not showable, and the only reason to breed it is to make a butt-load of money from stupid saps who are willing to buy high priced mutts.
"Very adorable baby Maltipoos are ready for new homes. They are from a 4lbs maltese dad and a 6lbs poodle mom. Very friendly and playfull little buddle of joys. $450"
You can get a full maltese or full mini poodle for only $50 more.
Labradoodle/Goldendoodle Puppies!
Price: US $1,300.00
$1300!!! You can get a pure lab for less than $500. This is just a total scam, and people are falling for it. Just because you put "doodle" or "poo" on the end does not make the animal valuable. These "breeders" are making thousands off suckers every year. This rackett is even more profitable than those Nigerian scams!
Maybe every low income family should start a "doodle" farm, then there wouldn't be any poverty anymore...
