      ok we don't consider it an insult....not all of this is true. The way they said it is messed up. Mutts are mixed from purebreds. ..so how can they be any healthier? seriously its just trying to make purebreds look bad its really not like that.Mixed breeds have genetic disorders aswell because each time they breed in the streets or their owners breed them because they want to make designer breeds its worst than breeding a purebred dog because those dogs are so mixed that you dont know with who they mated and what breeds are mixed in making tons of health problems. At least we can determine what problems the purebred dogs will jave and it can be bred out...but with mixes there really isnt much of a way out. In yhe purebred dogs there are different types in the breed some are bred to the looks they use to have and others to the evolved looks which are really not to be considered looks for show its looks for the breed supposedly . Mixed breeds arent bad I just want to state out a really important point that nobody is mentioning because they are too busy criticizing the purebred dogs. Find a good responsible breeder and you'll gind that none of thise mentioned things are going on....choose the wrong breeder and you'll start one of the world's hardest battles to get over with

    • @zemorph42
      @zemorph42 8 лет назад +452

      +Paz Hernandez I call bs. It's simple; small gene pool = less genetic diversity = more health problems and more frequent and severe genetic disorders. All "purebred" breeds have chronic health issues due to inbreeding, often linked to the traits for which they were bred and thus impossible to breed out. Mutts are always more robust and healthier than their purebred ancestors because mixing separate bloodlines together always results in more genetic diversity and lower chances of genetic disorders, unless both parent lines are so riddled with severe genetic defects that they're on the verge of extinction, anyway. Learn population genetics.

      There's a reason why people say that the breed's ancestor is from Mexico, not that the breed is from Mexico. The Chihuahua is so separated from its ancestor genetics-wise. Chihuahuas used to be able to take down rats and now they are the size of a rat. Being so tiny makes them angry bc they cant defend themselves. Even when they bite, it doesn't bleed bc they are that tiny.

      I have also had success with aunt/nephew. Made this cross 3 times in a row. Each litter produced high quality individuals. Several of these pups became great dogs that started their own kennels.
      I have also tried outcrossing. The bloodline I crossed to was totally unrelated. All 8 pups in the litter suffered from complex focus seizures. They also call them sugar fits.
      Sometimes mixing different bloodlines is like oil and vinegar. They don't mix.

    Mutts are awesome. My grandparents had a dog that was pretty much a mix of everything and it was cute despite not being trained at all, but that was my grandparent's fault. The dog could swim like a fish, he could run very fast until a very high age and he was extremely intelligent, for example he learned how to open doors by jumping up and pressing the handle down without ever being shown how to and he would often go on extremely long walks by himself and return home. Often he walked all across the village to a water channel to take a swim there. And if he didn't like people he showed them by barking very meanly. That damn dog was officially banned from the property of a company in our town because the CEO didn't like him after he barked at him :D
    He lived until it was 20, then my grandma decided to put him down because he refused to eat and he couldn't really walk stairs anymore and she lived upstairs. It was also impossible to carry him because he hated being picked up and would try to bite.
    If she hadn't taken him down, that dog would have probably lived longer than everyone else in our family :D

    • @machdude3366
      @machdude3366 7 лет назад +14

      This is literally like saying "our dogs are now less franken because we played around with their genetics a little more." Down the line, it still doesn't change the fact that they are inbred. Any pride and prestige from having a purebred dog is entirely superficial due to the fact that these animals are only given prestige by people like you.
      The argument for "all animal breed" lines is pretty damn far out there when most animals that have been humanly inbred these days are not meant to be pets. They were meant to be beasts of burden or food. At least their purpose is based on something that we have a function for. Purebred dogs for the sake of purebred status is truly animal abuse in its purest form because you have no good reason to do it. At all.

    • @seanrea550

      a dog does not care about genetics as much. cross breeding lines may not make dogs less "frankenstines" but it does strengthen their genetics. just allowing a cross breeding one time can reset a genetic counter as to how inbreed the offspring are. the more you do this the stronger the line is as you diversify the genetic material in the off spring.

Yes, if you happen to get lucky and those traits that you can live with happen to be bred into that dog. I feel sorry for those people who adopt a dog that is all cute and cuddly, and they are told that it will be just a small dog, but it grows up to be Great Dane size. Or they get a mutt puppy that is cute and so attentive, then they find out that it is part Border Collie and requires MUCH more exercise and attention than the owners can provide. Why do you think that most dogs in the shelter are young dogs and are mutts??

    We got a purebred dog for free because the man who had her couldn't care for her anymore due to work so he gave her to my dad. She even had official papers. She had a lot of problems. For the record, Daphne was a Boxer. Namely her claws had to be trimmed at the vets office because what the provide in pet stores arent strong enough. Her teeth got gnarly after about 7 years.
    She developed mastitus with her first litter (purely accidental, she got out one night and didnt find her until 2 days later, next thing we know there's puppies. Which all died because Daphne couldn't feed them and it was only my mom who could feed them as I was only 8 at the time).
    She developed warts that turned into tumors. She developed hip dysplasia then "doggie ALS" as the vet called it. After 13 years we finally put her down. She couldn't walk up or down the stairs without falling and she'd be crying in pain most of the time.

    I think it's fun rewatching now that I'm in the livestock breeding world. I do have a few addendums for modern discoveries and differences.
    1. Some breed clubs actually allow non purebred dogs to apply to be part of the breed. If they look right and have the right temperament. I know this is a thing with a couple different collie breeds.
    2. With the popularity of mutts and designer mixes now being a real issue, not all mutts are healthier. It's more a gamble with them while purebreds tend to have more predictability. (And worse outcomes depending on the breeder.)
    3. It is good to take breed into account (since mongrels/mega mutts aren't super common) when adopting a dog. This is for temperament instead of appearance though. For example, I have pet rabbits. I'd want to look for a mix of a common livestock guardian dog who is known for being gentle with small animals, while I'd want to heavily avoid spitz/sled dogs because they have very high prey drives and tend to be brought to shelters for killing cats.

      Meow it is not a good video as it only talks about dogs looks and not their psychological traits, which is what truly matters. People originally started breeding not because they wanted cute dogs, but because they wanted dogs who could retrieve/hunt/pull/guard/herd better and more easily. Sadly today dogs are more often than not treated like objects or accessories to show off down the street. They are not given a chance to work, to behave as they should (see Labrador Retrievers: they are meant to be retrievers, but today people buy them just because they're cute and happy. And then they wonder why they are so destructive: they're frustrated!). So because people no longer care about a dog's temperament and purpose, but only about their looks, it's easy to end up criticising breeders, calling them criminals and preach about how adopting is better (when mostly people adopt so they can get a dog for free, without anybody interviewing them to see if they are the right owners for that dog type, as responsible breeders do).

    @microwaveoven9170 Год назад +10

    I agree with most of what's being said here, however he does leave out the fact that mixed breed dogs have their own cons.
    1) Just because they're mixed doesn't mean they're necessarily healthier. If they have a parent with health problems, those problems can still be passed down to the puppies, and mixing two dogs with different coat types could make it harder for their coats to be maintained.
    2) Their personalities can be unpredictable. The thing that makes purebreds desirable is the fact that you can usually predict how they're going to behave, but getting a mixed breed without any knowledge of their prior behavior can make training and socialization difficult and is what leads to many dogs getting rehomed several times.
    3) Mixed breeds like doodles can be exploited just as badly as purebreds. With purebreds you can at least find some truly ethical breeders that make sure their dogs pass health tests like OFA, have polices in place that in the event their dogs don't work out for you they must be given back to the breeders, and they will educate you on what to expect from their dogs and will make sure their applicant's will be responsible enough to care for those puppies and won't give their dogs to just anyone with enough money. Most doodles are not bred ethically and are an unfortunate result of the "designer dog" craze, and many people have false expectations of them because of bad breeder marketing. Again, all the problems I've already listed with mixed breeds apply to most doodles. With all of this being said, I don't discourage getting a mixed breed dog, nor do I think purebreds are the only way to go.
    My hope is that when you go to get a dog, be cautious about the way you go about it. If you get a purebred make sure you do your research on what breed suits you and your family best, read a list of green flags and red flags to look for in dog breeders. I discourage buying a mixed breed dog from a breeder, and instead encourage rescuing a puppy or adult dog from the shelter, or better yet fosters who know the dogs first hand and tell you their experience with their dogs, and be prepared for any potential bad behaviors from a mixed dog that may be hard to train out.

British Bulldogs are in a far worse state than pugs. I looked after 2 B Bulldogs once for someone and I noticed that when it tried to sleep it would lie down with its legs folded up under it. This would stop its breathing and it would have to wake up. I had to shove a cushion under its chest just so that it could get some sleep. All brachycephalic dogs are in bad trouble.

      @SarahPiperNZ 10 лет назад +32

      Hybrid vigour doesn't apply when mixing within a species, and because the range of mutts is so broad, no one focuses on the health issues. Of all the dogs I've met with hip dysplasia and luxating patellas (all things health testing can identify so dogs which are prone to these conditions won't be bred, by good breeders anyway), only one was a purebred. The rest of them (and I worked in a boarding kennels, so it was at least 20-25 dogs I met over those years) were your "healthy" "hybrids". And, just because, I had a lovely purebred for over 14 years. Never had any health issues in his life and was happy and healthy up until the week his renal system started to fail. Not genetic, not something that could have been prevented, and not something his breeder had ever seen in any of her dogs before, just bad luck that meant we had to say goodbye to him. From his litter, I know three of the others who are still continuing to do well. But god forbid a purebred be healthy right? It's called responsible breeding, and it works damn well.

And yes, a lot of shelter dogs do take time and effort, but isn't that what having a pet is all about? My dog Annie, she's no purebred and she is definitely neurotic and a little screwed up, but earning her trust and love has been rewarding. She's not some pretty little accessory, she is a person with her own thoughts, fears, and personality. Mutts are the best because they are often unexpected, you can't look up on a chart and see how they are "supposed to act" with their specially designed temperaments, you actually have to get to know the individual dog.

    I agree the health of pure breeds are generally fucked up BUT breeding "random mutts" ain't a good idea either. Breeds generally exist for a reason (hunting/herding/shepherding/guarding/and the fairly recent lapdog) and have been bred for hundreds if not thousands of years for these qualities (even if there was no 'breed standard' back then you till bred the best herding dogs with the best herding dogs). Mixing breeds without knowing what you're doing can get you a dog that isn't fit for any category. Yes, it might be healthier - MIGHT - because genetic variation is good for any species, but it might also end up being a 'nightmare' for a pet. For example, pitbulls are generally people-friendly but dog aggressive. Guess what happens when you mix that with a guard dog like the rottweiler, which is naturally inclined to be wary towards unknown people? It's so easy to end up with a dog that's aggressive towards humans. Mix a high-energy (very loud) husky an intelligent but i-do-what-i-want afghan hound? great, now you have a dog that will get out of any enclosure, will chase anything moving, can run for miles for 40 mils/h, and won't listen to a single word you say. Of course, the puppy can also end up getting all the good qualities and be a wonderful pet. But really, why would you try it? If there is one thing breeds are good for, it's that you know what you're getting.

      Mutts don't need to be completely random. You can still selective breed while still mixing up the gen pool a bit.
      I see why some breeds are kinda okay. Such as a hypo allergenic, and those bred for jobs that require a certain ability and mindset. But even some of those breeds would be better off with a little outside gene now and then.
      I understand it's nice if you want a specific temperament. But if your like most people; just looking for a furry buddy to add to the family so you can take them on walks and adventures. Why not consider a rescued mutt?
      I find pretty sad how many people treat getting a dog like picking out a dream item.

      @@silverdaledrizzle780 of course, I agree with you. It was mainly the sentiment in the video that mutts are automatically healthier and "better" dogs I found a little lacking. I could also point out that I used to have a rescued pit/rottie and they definitely don't need to be aggressive, but it was easy to see "how" it could have turned out that way and you never really know beforehand. Sometimes the trigger is an accident that you don't have control over. There's also loads of purebred dogs in rescues too that need loving homes that understand their needs.

Have to use this tofu stuff, as after experimenting that seems to cause problems. But cat breeds are a thing. I see these ugly flat faced cats. As much as I love how a Bengal cat looks, I know it’s wrong. Actually the whole pet business is wrong, and sad. Although we adopted stray animals left for dead, still part of the problem, but people into special breeds are worse.

    Most of this is true. But he forgot to mention there are good breeders out there. Very rare thou... Sadly.
    I know a breeder who puts the dogs health first! She gets them teated for everything and makes sure their NOT related. She doesn't make much money because money isn't a priority. It's the dogs health. When people are interested in her pups she makes you sign forms to spay/neuter the dog when it's an adult and asks a million questions. She won't give you the dog unless she knows it's going to a forever home. After her female gives her 2-3 litter with long gaps in between; she spays them because she doesn't like breeding them anymore after that. She's been doing this for 30+ years and only has great reviews. Her dogs live very long lives too of 15+ years.
    It's just sad there aren't many good breeders, and a lot of puppy mills

      they aren't that rare. there are nowhere near as many purebred dogs in shelters as mutts. Alot of breeders take their dogs back if they can not be re homed. Not that there anything wrong with mutts, but no one talks about those stats. I go to shelters and see purebreds often but the mutts from irresponsible breeders who dont give a shit are rampant., its pretty obvious even if people are breeding for aesthetics they do seem to look after their dogs way more than mutt breeders as a whole.

      Good breeders are still inbreeding animals, no matter how many waivers they have customers sign and no matter how carefully they choose the mating pairs, which are still closely related by virtue of being the same breed. With the number of strays that exist, it's far and beyond more ethical to not breed at all.
