Horsefeathers! Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 My husband and I went out for dinner tonight (Reuben sammiches and cheese fries... mmmm), and a pet store is located by our favorite restaurant in this little shopping center. "Porkie" caught my attention. Porkies? I can only assume it's a Pug/Yorkie mix, but it sure sounds like a weird mix. I'm used to all the doodles and poos and such... but Porkie? I tried my best to get a look at one of them, but they were asleep behind glass and all I got was a look at their butts which looked just like the butts of any other dog. See the insane price for these things? Crazy stuff. This is the store that I used to buy my dog food from, but when they started selling live animals, I had to dump them. Porkies... I thought I'd heard it all. :-? Quote
JackieMaya Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 My brother used to have a purebred Cocker Spaniel named Porkie! But the Porkie "breed" is a new one on me! What next! Quote
cheechweech Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 That is an insane price to pay for a mixed breed, mutt, Heinz 57, what have you. I read an article somewhere about how Labradoodles are selling for tons of $$, and they are a mixed breed just like any dog you could get at the pound in need of a good home. :roll: Quote

imported_Debbie Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 :-? Yeah, Pugs are now the new things to mix with everything under the sun...... An X family member purchased a Jug earlier this year........ Pug/JRT X $500 at a local Pet store....... :roll: Quote
imported_Irena Posted September 17, 2005 Posted September 17, 2005 just when you think you heard it all somthing new comes and bites you again :-? Quote
schippsmom Posted September 17, 2005 Posted September 17, 2005 :Dog_run: Crazy people, don't they know they can get the same damn thing from their local shelter. This kills me. OK, breath deeply, count to 10-no-100 or maybe higher. Quote
