Default question for the room...

i have been looking for a new puppy and i found one thats um... at best
guess going to be odd..see the mother was a GSD×husky, and the father
was a Doberman×pit bull mix. the pups are too young right now (only 4
weeks old) i want some outside people to tell me what they think of
getting a dog with such a strong mixing of breeds. (and if you own or
know such a mix) ?

The mix, and other people's experience with similar mixes, won't tell you
nearly as much as the actual parents. The puppies will most likely be
similar to the mother in behavior. They COULD be different, depending
upon the background, but unless you know the grandparents you will have no
way of predicting that. Do lots of socialization with all kinds of
people, and expect dog aggression as the dog matures.

The mix sounds alright. The mother must not be six monthes old. Two
years old is the minimum. Most puppies born to young mothers are
abandoned by the mother, as she is still a pup.

That's the second incorrect thing you've posted today. I
completely disrespect people who don't know the answer to a
question but answer anyway, making up some nonsense and
delivering it as the truth.

This is true.

You must not know much about the large amount of pups and mothers given
to shelters due to the mother abandoning the pups. Many times her hips
are injured as they are not fully developed to give birth yet.. Most of
the time the mother does not want to breast feed the pups. So they have
to be bottle fed.

Bad policies lead to bad results.


I agree about bad politics leads to bad results, such as arguing about
six a month old puppy having puppies leads to bad results.

Look, you innumerate dope, a tiny percentage of a very large
number may look like a large number, but it doesn't mean
that the probabilities are large. Stop making crap up.

six a month old puppy having puppies leads to bad results.


Look, you illiterate dope, my .sig doesn't say "bad
politics," it says "bad policies."


Sorry !! Gosh by golly one lil old mistake and you do a side flip ! I
am not so good with my eyesite these days. Getting older does that.

And if you don't
understand the difference between politics and policy,


Dah, is there a difference lets see, like Clinton said 'It all depends
how you define is'
It all depends how you view politics, it is based on policy.
You know it all depends on 'what is, is'

well, that would certainly account for a lot, wouldn't it?


Yah, you did not like my answer about young pups giving birth to pups.

Bad attitudes lead to snippety snipes at an
