My parents have 2 dogs rescued from the mean streets of So. Cal, and you would not believe how great the dogs are. One is a bulldog, a very expensive dog. We got him for free because he was abandoned. Our other one is a mix of all kinds of stuff (Boxer and Rhodesian Ridge), and is a wonderfully loving and playful dog.
I agree with Zoe, purebreds are prone to medical problems. Stick to the dogs that need you the most, not the ones some rich person created for kicks.
