Pedigree's VS non Pedigree's

[Starbucks]

Between me and my mum we have a few dogs now (5), we've got three terriers, a Staff x and a GSP and do you know who will always be my fav fab dog - Buffy the Staff x!!!!!

She is the best dog EVER!!!!! I love her to bits, even though she isn't mine! She is soooo clever and loving, she thinks she is a human!!

I love my GSP and mine and mums terriers but Buffy is something else!!

Big up for the cross breeds!!!!

Well my best dogs have ben my whippetxgreyhounds....so I cant argue

 

[CAYLA]

Even if one is a smaller version of the other

It's not really a VS thing in my mind, but finding the right dog for you and your family.
Buffy just IS that one in a million and would be whatever her breding.

Love anything that is right,some stunning crosses and some god ugly purebreds out there!

I have a pedigree Malinois and a pedigree Akbash - both are dogs of a lifetime! Absolutely fabulous dogs.

I also have Lily

. Lily is special....so special that I can't believe I spent the money to fly her over here when we moved....

. Lily is the offspring from a pedigree Border Collie mother and a pedigree Springer Spaniel father....she took after her father sadly! Lily is now to have her own crossbred puppies after a morning of passion with a passing stray collie, so this will make her extra special.

Daisy the Malinois is very much MY dog; she's my constant companion wherever I am on the farm.

Clover the Akbash is adorable and very lazy for a puppy. That's okay though, she's very cuddly when she can be bothered to get up for a snuggle.

Have to say, all of my dogs are great - they are all different but most lovely.

Love my crossbreed

hate the other one...but hed be awful xbreed or not

shes got unique markings, but to be fair so do most terriers

and has such spunk, shes hilarious

couldnt be doing with just another yellow lab

however, my grandparents have a Border Terrier which i adore, and I do like GSD

My best gundog of all time was a Huntaway x Labrador (yes a mistake!), my spaniel is not registered but already someone has asked to use him as a stud because he is so lovely and my fantastically bred labrador has OCD in both elbows!

Yes I agree with Anima its horses for courses - or dogs for jobs!

 

[GinaB]

Anima is entirely right.

I have only ever owned pedigrees though, bar one who was a lovely little mongrel. Real cracking wee dog. Unfortunately he went missing and we never got him back

Although Tina is not a registered lab, we never got her papers through. I wouldn't say she is particularly well bred.

I love them all just as much. We have pedigrees and show/breed and they are fab, just as much as my bog standard JRTs are. And our first dog was a Staff X Lab X Stuff

and she was wonderful

 

[lucylemon]

non pedigrees all the way!

i have only ever had rescue animals and i plan to keep it that way (when im older i want a house filled with lurchers

)

Agree 100%. Stella is perfect for us. This morning, we ran five miles through a forest; this afternoon, she was Christmas shopping with us. She is active when we want, and docile when we want, which is what a good companion breed is supposed to be.
