Seems that purebred dogs are already the product of humananly selected genes, and many of these purebred breeds have been suffering from an array of issues/ailments due to in-breeding. The AKC should be more responsible and cease to be the enambler of this practice. Besides, it seems that a mutt is usually smarter than a purebred dog. As man's companion and best friend this is definately a more rewarding/evolutionary correct quality. I also think they should stop this animal abuse.

She's the white one with the black button nose. By the way, the mutts in the muttface gallery are not all mine. I'll put mine in today. I have a yellow one and a brown one. Thanks Shaun!

It's a shame they get neglected just because they're not purebred. My girlfriend and I love Zoey to death (our spaniel/lab/eskimo mix). [IMG]http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w148/swg222/Zoey1.jpg[/IMG] I'm going to get another one in the near future but for now I'm going to do foster care. Mutts are great! I’m going to adopt mutts.

I feel sorry for a dog that has skin problems just because its owner wanted it to have silver hair. My mutt is perfect the way he is! Poor dogs.
