This morning, we met the latest doodle-dog “breed” in our neighborhood, an Old English Sheepdog-Poodle mix. I must ask again: if crossing any breed with a poodle results in a “better” #dog, why not *just get a damn poodle* in the first place?? #DogsOfCoSo

Agreed. There was recently a puppy mill busted where I live and about 20 "doodle" type dogs ended up at the rescue where I got my dog. Some of these poor animals hadn't even been out of their cages except to be bred. 😡
In happier news, I like how your doggos blep for photos!
@nonayadambidnes North Carolina is notorious for puppy mills, and many multi-thousand-dollar puppies come from horrible places. This is one reason cited my veterinarian for the short life expectancy of these “designer” breeds. I volunteered for years at our county animal shelter where the officers broke up some of these filthy and cruel operations. Legislation to ban these practices is vigorously opposed by agriculture interests who don’t want any government involvement in animal operations.
@cassandra17lina @nonayadambidnes:
PUPPY PASS
MILLS THE
KILL! BILL!
I like that better than the original tagline for Kill Bill.
That said, I hope they pass the bill and outlaw the damned things.
