I have loved dogs my entire life. These four legged creatures have peered into my very soul and have offered up a potpourri of unconditional love and devotion unmatched by humankind.

Growing up I always wanted a Great Dane or a Cocker Spaniel or maybe one of each. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that one day I might be able to purchase a mix of the two. But with society’s recent demand for so called designer dogs, and too many willing breeders, that day may not be that far off.
