Why are people hating the cross breeds today?


View attachment 53403

This is Ted the Goldendoodle. 😍
I think it's just hate for the naming, although it's punchier than...

Nice dog. What is he?
A mongrel.
Oh. Do you what what kind of mongrel?
Yes, he's a golden labrador crossed with a poodle.

Easier to just say he's a golden labradoodle innit?

He is a handsome chap.

I think a 'poodor' would be snappier.

Its more like it needs a flashy name because no-one will believe someone's paid hundreds for a mongrel ;)

Like a lot of the “pure” breeds these dogs have been bred purely for there looks and practicality… Teddy looks nice, great Golden Retriever personality and with the Poo bit he’s like a non drop Christmas tree. 😁

Being a complete and utter wally. Who thought it was a good idea to let the wet sponge dry atop the laundry capsules. Took a while to figure out why they were all stuck together or disintegrating in my hands as I picked them up. Kitchen floor is now pretty clean for a change. Shame it was a full box!

Hay Fever! Haven't suffered with it for years but it's doing my head in, literally.
Beconase spray is the best thing for mine. Always keep one in my golf bag, one in the car door and another in the house. I never had hayfever as a kid but over the last 10 years it's been brutal. I was even allergic to the dog when we got him and there are still days when I need a spray or two from all the hairs he casts. He's a lab so has a 12 month casting season.

Car insurance renewal time again. 2 years ago it was £320, last year £380 and the cheapest so far this year is £504. Nothing has changed except the car is now older and worth less. Complete rip off.

There are mongrel dogs you can get where that’s not an issue… just saying. 😁
