Mutts Mixing it Up with Purebreds?


USA Today has an interesting story about "mongrels."Apparently, dogs of completely indeterminate genealogy are getting to be just as popular, even among those who can afford any purebreds, as papered pups. Mutts are making it happen!

Sure, Labradoodles, Poogles and Schoodles have been all the rage of late, but those are hybrids. You can tell where they came from. This article is talking about complete mixes that are often the result of covert dalliances with the neighbor's dog.

I'm sure Dexter, my household mutt (the only mutt among four dogs), is pleased. "Paris Hilton will be phoning any day now," he insists.
