How stupid and pointless.The only popular one I've seen that makes any sort of sense is the Labrador/poodle cross.
Nope. The alleged idea behind the "Labradoodle" was to get a service dog for those who have allergies. Except no one bothered to mention that the Standard Poodle would have sufficed. Large enough to do the job, intelligent for trainability and "hypoallergenic".

Whats really sad is the GP is so into "designer breeds". I was walking Owen past the gas station when a girl (mid-20's) waiting in a car with friends asked me all excited if Owen was a "Doxle", the designer term for a Beagle x Dachshund. When i told her he was an AKC reg purebred Basset Hound she actually got all huffy. I think she was trying to impress her friends with her dog breed knowledge
