Respond to reporter re "doodles" and "puggles"
The following "reporter request" appeared in the online Portland Press
Herald today. I responded, begging her NOT to glorify these unethical people, and giving a brief description of what an ethical breeder does, but others might wish to do so also. Especially if you have a link to a website that sums up the case against the practice. At least we can hope that she will present both sides if she goes ahead with the article. "Do you just love your labradoodle? Or maybe you prefer puggles. If you have one of the new hybrid "designer dogs," reporter Meredith Goad would like to talk with you about your pet and the pros and cons of the breed. Contact her via e-mail or call her at 791-6332. Please be sure to leave a daytime phone number where you can be reached. " |

The story is finished, and I did quote an expert from the Humane Society liberally, and included lots of cautionary information on buy a hybrid. |

The story is finished, and I did quote an expert from the Humane Society liberally, and included lots of cautionary information on buy a hybrid. I can't imagine a humane society agent supporting the proliferation of mixed breed dogs, so I am assuming, she took liberal license it altering comments from her source. Wow, she obviously needs a lesson in listening. She should write opinion columns instead of being a reporters. Reporters are supposed to have listening skills. |

They aren't "hybrids", and that right there tells me she doesn't know enough about the subject to report on it. |

Would still like to have the email- because one cannot harp too much or too often about these things. After you post the addy she'll *never* do a story glorifying intentional breedmixing again! -- Toni http://www.cearbhaill.com/rules.htm |
