Cranfield Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Does anyone know what breed the Top Gear dog is ? There is no info on their website, I emailed them about a week ago and apart from an automated acknowledgement, I haven't heard a thing. It looks a bit like a labradoodle (labradorXpoodle).

Cranfield Posted July 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 It does look as though labradoodle gets the vote. £950 for a mongrel, they must be having a laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted July 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I am not saying that a pedigree dog , is better than a mongrel. One of my best working dogs was a whippet/greyhound/border collie cross, none of her line had a pedigree in sight. I would not pay £950 for a pedigree puppy, or for a mongrel puppy.

Mungler Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Indeed, 950 quid for a mixer? That's £10k for the litter if she outs the lot. Blimey, I am in the wrong game.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darebear Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 no ur not in the wrong game. breeding for money is just ethically wrong if you ask me. newf pups (my breed), have hit the 1k bracket these days, and because of that we get those that just arent interested in bettering a breed which have a LOT of health issues (hereditary). they know they can make a quick buck because newf pups are utterly adorable baby bears. they sell indiscriminately to people who either have no idea what they are getting themselves into, nor appreciate the possible health issues this breed may have in later life. scaffy and i do as much as we can for newfoundland rescue, and its sickening to see the amount of dogs that come through rescue because of irresponsible breeders and owners who had no business being sold one in the first place. yes the argument could go that if prices werent so high then it wouldnt perpetuate the money market for greedy swines who lack responsible ethics. but at the same time, if prices were reduced, every tom **** and harry could get hold of a dog which requires a LOT of time and effort. face it, prices arent going to come down. its not the way this useless ****** up world works. and the powers that be (like the kennel club) wont do anything because they'll end up losing money in registrations. catch 22 and vicious circle spring to mind.
