Hybrid Nonsense

Don’t get me wrong, I am a dog lover. I was raised around dogs, because, well, my parents raised them. We had Great Danes when I was a kid - I considered them an over sized dog or an under sized horse. Either way they were neat. The general theories on dogs is that Pure Breds are expensive because they are “pure of blood”, aka they only have their original bloodline in them. Tragically this typically makes for serious inbreeding - resulting in weak stock. Mutts on the other hand were dogs as nature intended - two horny dogs get together and viola! Puppies! Hardy, loads of em, and Cheap!

Now America is on the leading edge of the Hybrid Dog thing. Basically it is the controlled method of making Mutts. I can’t make this shit up. Jack Russel got ripped a new one for “creating” the Jack Russel Terrier, which has recently been renamed the Parson Russel Terrier so that the AFKFCDOGHUMPERS, or whoever the hell they are, would recognize them as an actual breed. Think that through. This dude Jack Russel and his cohort Parson Whiner bred the crap out of some dogs to get a new hybrid dog, which they called a pure breed and now force Jack Russel owners to breed them only with other Parson Russel Terriers. Confusing to say the least. Did I fail to mention I have one? Manic, napoleanic, little man syndrome angry sonofabitch. Love that little guy.

Nope we Americans couldn’t stop there. We chastised the hell out of Jack Russel. Then someone realized that if you made “hybrids” you could give them snazzy names and charge loads of money. Some of these new Hybrids are costing upwards around $2k! So what sort of names? My favorite is this little diddy: Cocker Spaniel x English Cocker Spaniel =  Colonial Cocker Spaniel. Could we get an sillier?
