'Trendy Cross Breeds'

The list is, unfortunately, endless.
Jackahuahuas, springador, shepador, yorkipoo, puggle,cavapoo, sprocker, etc etc.
As to price, usually twice what you would pay for a purebred version of either parent.:mad:
 
But they are pure-bred don't you know if both their parents are registered with the KC, and because they are rare, or is it new? I will pay much more money and they are all hypo-allergenic and perfect tempered and both parents can be seen and they have been health checked by some bloke around the corner over the phone, but how can I resist that cool name!

I suppose my creation would be the Siberian Heeler (ACD x Sibe), would probably kill more reindeer than it actually herded and almost never obey any command without a mains electric collar!!

LOL Cayla, glad you went the diplomatic route. :D
 
Puggles. Beagle x Pug. These started the "hybrid" trend in America, though Labradoodles and Cockapoos were already common crosses.

Tiny poodle crosses--Maltipoos and Yorkipoos--seem to be the most popular crosses in NY these days.
 
St Weiler , rottweiler x st Bernard .

I have seene advertised between 300-600 but paid less for mine, v friendly pup already has learnt sit, stay, come, kinda gets the idea of down and the all important NO.

Not v popular over here.

BTW didn't get him for fashion we wanted a big dog. And the litter caught our eye.
 
Dorkie... dachsund x yorkie 200-300

a colleague has a Cockerpoo - she paid £600 for it and i kid you not it is the spitting image of a Tibetan Terrier - but i know which i would prefer ;)

I did see a litter of Daneadoodles advertised recently - must say they were very cute and would probably be striking looking dogs but why cant they just be advertised as what they are - Great Dane x Poodle

Our old dog was, in new terms, a Sprollie, but we had her before all this silly name business and when asked she was always called our 'springer collie cross'
 
I have a Whippadore, and I don't think it is a 'trendy' x breed, just an accidental one - it was, honest!
I didn't pay a penny for her, as she was bred within the family. My step mum thought she had closed the kitchen door, but my uncles whippet didn't think so! If I could I'd order another as I like both breeds, so I've got the best of both worlds.

I've seen Goldenpoos, and my mum has a Colladore and a Laburcher. I am quite happy to call them all x breeds, but somehow making up names for them is quite amusing and there is nowt wrong with that!

This seems very funny too!;

I have a Great Weiler, (great dane x Rottweiler) paid £50.00 for him nine years ago before these things got trendy. He is absolutely wonderful, good with the kids, and protective of us when we are out and about. He is a huge mainly black dog with blue eyes, so a stare generally works for him!Only trouble is I know I'll never be able to replace him!
 
We have a 6 year old schnoodle - a mini poodle x mini schnauzer, result of accidental mating before these trendy cross breeds became popular. i would say she s an absolute star, intelligent, lovable, can be a lap dog and will walk for miles chasing birds, rolling in mud etc. She's the best behaved dog we've ever had. I take her to training, she had'nt been trained when we got her aged 5, and she proved the saying "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" wrong. After a shaky start, she's bril in the group.
 
A very series site about designer breeds
http://www.designermixes.org/Dogs/Index.aspx

I get a lot of cross breeds coming to training classes and there are a lot in the local park. Some people get very funny if you call them cross breeds or mongrels, especially as they have paid a lot of money.

I have seen adverts for "pedigree" Y x Z with papered parents, and ads for rare breed, hard to find Y x Z get your cross breed for silly money.

I do find that the more people pay for their dog the more willing they are to train and socialise them.
 
And there they are on that site giving out "BREED" information a half bred is not a breed and on there it has recognition details "suggesting" that someone is recognising an F1 cross as a breed!!!

Still I suppose Money talks and hang everything else what the GP wants someone will breed for them to pay a lot of money for, guess the shock comes when they take it to a dog show! I hope these dogs are finding good homes but I doubt most of the people breeding them really care.

I am appalled by how many breeders are doing this, some of which should know a lot better, but its the perfect way round the KC litter controls and health checks I suppose and no registration fees = maximum profit especially if you have both parents!!

Depressing!
 
Jakes a springer spaniel x border collie = sprollie
Looks just like a border collie to the average joe but there are subtle spangle bits in there :) He was an accident, the spaniel stud got to the daughters collie bitch apparently. Both parents nice enough working dogs paid more than I would normally for a crossbreed just over £100 but worth every penny :D
 
Thanks everyone. Interesting combinations (although I'm not sure what all of them are, so will go look them up).

LOL Cayla :D
