The "Puggle" thing really gets to me. We have a few that come into my local Petsmart. I asked how much.. The lady said $500, but the black one was selling for $800!!!! I am now seeing many mixed toy breeds....SURE they're cute, but we can't all make up our own breeds and keep pumping them out for money. A friend of mine rescued a pomeranian/yorkie from a pet store--she's darling, but you can't tell me the so called "breeder" cared about luxated patellas, or heart murmers, etc. Just big bucks!! Makes me sick. A couple recently came in with a GSD pup. She was tiny, rail looking and they said they bought her from the Pet store at the Mall(Whooo-hooo!) The lady said the pet store owner didn't have the papers because he bought them locally, and they were selling SO fast, he didn't have time to get papers..............yeah, and I lost mine in a fire......huh! (another good one!)

It is a cross between a pug and beagle--the little guy was cute--I was dying to ask his owner how much moolah she spent on a mutt--but I didn't.
