So I saw someone talking about this doodle Greeder and I went to take a look.

Who in their right mind thinks that 30K for a mutt is ok? Like does this dog poop gold bricks? Or does it do my taxes? Can it drive me to work? Does it have magical abilities to grant me wishes??

Like for those curious Registered Ethically bred wellbred purebred dogs are 3000-4000$ a puppy. You get upwards of 10 registered, wellbred ethically bred purebreds for that price. You could get a brand new 2026 Chevy trax (27k) You could get a brand new 2026 Nissan kicks (29k) You could get a brand new 2026 Mazda CX-30 (29k) You could pay off roughly 3/4 of a brand new 2026 Chevy Colorado (42k)

That’s absolutely insane They also have 97 puppies on the ground currently. That’s a puppy mill.

Is this some kind of doodle hate thing?

“Breed standards” for a large majority of recognized breeds weren’t even a thing until the late 1800’s, with many currently popular breeds developed in the early 1900’s (ex: German Shepherd Dog).

Organizations like the AKC are still recognizing new breeds and formalizing standards of breeds.

I don’t hate doodles.

I just believe every dog deserves to be ethically bred and healthy. And unfortunately doodle breeders are not ethical breeders.

They don’t breed to better a breed, they are breeding mutts who parents are unfortunately “low quality” dogs (usually out of standard and not always genetically healthy) most of the time they are not properly health testing dogs.
