BYB site pretending otherwise

Again....$350.00 for mixa-poos, non-shedders, bloodline and lineage included. Adults, "growing out of the cute puppy stage" also available. WTH? The site includes a disclaimer, suggesting people adopt from the SPCA and other shelters. Am I crazy?

I sent a cordial, inquiring e-mail....anyone else care to do the same?

I can't stand those sites. They showed a tri-colour mixie and mentioned "Her striking colors are unusal and rare to find". I'd send a letter, but I don't think I'd be able to keep from cussing them out.

Well I did hear back...and unfortunately I must have struck a nerve because I have been verbally SPANKED. My email merely pointed out that she was selling mixes, while the same crosses could be found elsewhere, shelters etc. But oh boy, she told me otherwise:
Any Veterinarian will tell you that Cross Breds are healthier dogs than Purebreds because Purebreds have a limited Genetic Pool and each and every purebred has Health Issues. By cross breeding, the limited genetic Pool is replaced by the outside cross producing a better quality animal. Blah, blah blah. It went on like that. I am probably crossbred- and ignorant-and perverted-and unintelligent-and disgusting. I guess you get the picture. No she has got me all wrong. I am none of the above. The only thing I wish she would know about me, is that I am RIGHT.
