I am no dog lover but read of people paying thousands for a pedigree.
When I was a kid nobody had a pedigree and all dogs were cross bred. Owners gave the pups away for free...
The good old days.. |

My puppy lost a tooth today, I was like "holy shit I've broken your tooth!", then I googled they're supposed to come out between 3 and 6 months, it's all good.....   |

Our six year old dog is losing his front teeth lol, he’s in good health just common for his breed. New pup to add to the family in a weeks time

It's not only pedigrees that are making thousands now. I've heard of Jack Russel pups making over a grand each.
I think lockdown as boosted the prices up but I can't see it lasting. |

"I have two mini long hair dachshunds. I rescued them from an owner who wanted to euthanize them. "
My girl wanted a mini-dachs, we ended up with a mini-jack because dogs were literally selling like hot cakes and we saw one we fell in love with and she just HAD to have it....  |

I thought Jack Russells were pedigree..
Is that why they are not at Crufts ? |

They're recognised by some as pedigrees. It's a working dog though.. Basically couloured mongrels in my opinion.
I've never known anyone who have owned a jack Russel with the paper work or whatever it is to prove its a pedigree dog. |

"We normally rescue dogs last one cost £££s in vets bills but he all good now. Only ever payed for one pup we give good money for but that's the wife's staffy "
Excellent choice. I've never met one that wasn't adorable. Poor much maligned breed? |

They’re great dogs and I wouldn’t trade mine for a million dollars. |

Thank you for explaining...
I dabbled in the dog show world and did not like what I saw...
People say I am anti dog..
Nonsense...
But better a mongrel off a friend for free than a grand for a pedigree..
Heinz 57 for me |

"Jack's are a pedigree, they get all arsey about whether their ears fold at correct angle in the kennel club...."
my uncle has had litterally hundreds of them and not one of them a pedigree.
Sounds like a new thing |

I had a Heinz Variety from a fella in work when his had pups.
If i were to have another I’d go down the rescue route rather than Pedigree but a friend has a Pedigree Welsh Corgi and she’s a beauty. |

They were bread for fox hunting, getting in small holes and shit. It's not a new dog at all.... |

Depends what your looking for
I’ve had a dumped puppy for 12 ½ years
Now we’ve got a thoroughbred mastiff that cost a fortune and a fortune too maintain but he is the bomb  |
