"I have a few comments to make, and I am sure that many of you will not appreciate them. A complaint was made about having problems registering the "designer" breeds, and that the AKC will not accept them because they are not purebred. The way a breed becomes registered by the AKC is by starting an actual breed, and having the breed gain enough popularity throughout the world in other kennel clubs. If you want "greagles" to be a registered breed, you need to actually create a breed standard, instead of breeding two separate breeds like people are doing now. Work for the honor of an AKC or UKC recognization, just like all of the other breeds did, and you will be rewarded. Another comment I saw is about creating puppies for all of the low income families and elderly people. What about the millions of puppies that are euthanized each year because they cant find homes? Many shelters charge a fee for the upkeep of the dogs only, not to make a profit, and will usually have a program in place for helping elderly people get pets at reduced or no cost. Breeding dogs just to make sure the AKC isn't getting your money is no reason to breed, which is exactly what the many kennel clubs around the country have been saying. All you are doing is aiding in the dog overpopulation problem. And as for the adorable faces you get from these "designer" breeds, there are just as many adorable faces sitting on death row at the pound. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against designer dogs, but they aren't a true breed until you make them one, and don't expect the road to be an easy one for you. And if you continue to create mixed breed dogs, do it responsibly."
