Breeds vs. Designer Dogs
I think that a lot of people don't understand the difference between a dog BREED and a Designer Dog.
Yes, it is true that all dog breeds had to start somewhere. Let's take the German Shepherd as an example. When the breed was started, it was with a specific goal in mind - create a strong, agile, working herding dog. There were already many types of herding dogs in Germany at the time, and the breed's father, Max von Stephanitz, picked the dogs that most embodied what he wanted in his breed, drew up a standard, and set goals for his breeding. Out of this came the German Shepherd as we know it now.
When a new breed is created, there are a couple of things that are essential: a clear goal for the breed, and a drawn up standard - the things people want for and in the breed. Breeders will breed for some characteristics, like specific colors, structure, and temperament.
The other important thing about breeds is that they are not breeds until they breed true. That means, you can say that you will continue to produce the traits you want in your dogs with each litter. In the German Shepherd this is now ensured by breeding dogs that conform to the breed standard, and titling breeding dog - titling shows how their looks and structure measures up in conformation, and how their temperament and working ability measures up on the trial field.
Most "designer dog" breeders don't actually want to create a breed that "breeds true", like it should. They simply take two purebred dogs, cross them, and sell the puppies under a "cute" name like Cockapoo or Maltipoo. Their breeding stock is not titled, so we don't know what health, structural, or genetic issues are found within. They have no goals for their dogs other than selling the puppies. Fact is, you have no guarantees with such a dog - health or temperament wise, because it's not possible to give one!
And therein lies the difference.
