A 'designer breed' is not purebred and is therefore a mutt and just because some people think its 'fashionable' doesn't make it right. A dog is a lifelong commitment, not a fashion accessory so no one should ever buy a dog because its deemed 'fashionable', perhaps that's why so many get abandoned, because the fashion changes and people no longer want their unfashionable dog. As someone else said a Labradoodle is just a labrador crossed with a poodle. It may be fashionable and have been given a silly name but at the end of the day its still a mutt. Just like a Jackawawa (Jack Russell cross Chiwawa) or a Jug (Jack Russell cross Pug). Yes sometimes accidents happen and the resulting puppies should be spayed / neutered and given good homes but don't try to flog it off as a 'designer breed'. The cross breed dog you apparently owned may have been a lovely dog and treasured companion but it is irresponsible to purposely cross dogs due to a number of health and temperament issues that can arise. Oh, and don't come on here and say how rude everyone is just because the you / the 'other person' who started the post doesn't like what they hear = the truth.
