I saw someone at the park just the other day and asked what kind of mix it was , to that they replied "it's not a mix it's a cock-a-poo" I'm like , so what's that , to this they reply "a cocker spaniel and a poodle " I'm like so it's a mix , a mutt then ,not pure bred , they are all offended about it , so I diffused it rather than battle their ignorance and said" well he's a cutie thanks for your time " and me and my mutts were on our happy way trying not to let them see my eyes roll or my head shake ,

idiots , and they probably paid out the rear for it and they are nothing but glorified mutts .

I love all dogs but the whole "let's get this dog because it's all the rage " mentallity when they are getting a mutt kills me . Way too many mixes in shelters to be supporting a puppy mill just for the sake of having a yuppie approved dog .

To me mutt and mix are one in the same , my boy Baron is a Rott mix , a mutt , and I'm damn proud of it!
