I had to go to the local vet this evening, and they were running puppy preschool while I was there. Guess what? Not one oodle in sight! In fact, every puppy was a purebred! There was a Berner, Cav, Visla, Chi, Am Staff and a Golden. :cry:

It sure looks like the message is getting through :cry:

Bet the Deerhounds were the cutest dogs there!! :cry:

And Elfin, I assume you took full advantage of the horny oodle? Get a free mating and sell the pups for $$$$!! Doodlehounds, perhaps? :)

What a mix that would be if it was successful :cry:

I may get Deshonko to look into breeding a teacup Doodlehound for me.... but I want a pink one.

Hahaha yeah I remember taking my furkids to puppy preschool and having to weigh them at the start of each lesson. The rest of the class consisted of Malt x Shih's and Oodles who would put on 200g or so a week, my guys were putting on 2-3kg! :):cry:

6 out of the 8 pups in Maverick's Puppy Preschool were oodles! :cry:

I can't talk because both on my dogs are cross breeds.. :)

But.. they are shelter dogs! Not "designer" oodle dogs!

I have a Koolie Cross Husky - Hector

and a Malamute Cross Border Collie - Maverick

I love them to bits!

In no way do I support backyard breeders or the breeding of "designer dogs"

I think saving a life in a shelter is okay tho.. :rofl:

I know there are probably a lot of people that don't agree tho.. each to there own! :laugh::rofl:

I think it depends on where you live, and maybe what time it is!!

On the way home from work, I regularly see a liver and white cocker, a black cocker, a mini poodle, a golden, a black and a yellow lab, and a few other purebreds, including what I think is a pure JRT.

A few ks down the road, there are mutts walking - brown ones, cattle dog ones, staffy crosses.

A bit further, looks like oodles to me.

I have often wondered why, and would love to see the demographics of the areas - just coz I'm nosy.

and I am sure there are more DD than purebreds over all.

Nice to see some purebreds though.

I don't think there is anyone on here MM that wouldn't agree with your statement above :(

I guess in my area 95% of the dogs aren't walked sadly :D

But of those who are I'd say its about 50/50 with most of the pures being labs, and GSDs and Spitz breeds ;)

when I took Mr Darcy to puppy preschool the dogs were all pure (except one) but only my dog and a Daschund was from a registered breeder.

There was a mix at the Puppy Preschool I took Poppy (my 14 week old CKCS X) to on Monday night. We had one Lab breeder there with a puppy of hers (not sure why she came tbh!), two other Lab X, a pure Pug and a pure husky. I don't think any were from reg breeders. The Lab breeder who was there mentioned that they had bought their 12 week old pup to the session that had started 4 weeks ago. So I wondered how fast they were producing puppies.
