For people looking for something unique, a Designer Dog is the ultimate answer.  A dog bred especially and expressly for a purpose.  Honed through Decades and in some cases Centuries of selective breeding and culling.   In the UK alone there are 195 different designer dog breeds - each unique in its form and function.  There are even more in other countries. 

Whether you want long coat or short, wooly, curly or straight, thick or sparse or none at all, there is a dog for you.  
Whether you want big or small, medium or tiny, there is a dog for you. 
Whether you want active or lazy, lunatic or docile, or just plain laid back there is a dog for you. 
Obedient or stubborn or eager to please, bright witted or dim, heavy-weight or thin, there is a dog for you.
Fast or slow, or to take you for a tow, there's a dog for you.
Long nose or short, pug faced or not, with or without a tail there's a dog for you.
No matter what colour, there is a dog for you.

Just write a list of all that you want and then look for the one that matches - there's info on this site and on KC
because the ultimate designer dog is a PEDIGREE :D   (and they come at a reasonable price :) )

So if you find a pup, that appears unique, and you're told that the breeds in development,
check registration whithout hesitation or you'll find that you've paid for a white elephant.

:D

Excellent, Dill. Very, very true. There is no need for 'designer crosses' - unless you're a shallow saddo.

Brilliant.  Needs putting at the top of the Searching bosard for good.  Hey admin what you think???

Excellent :D :D

I'll second that :)

I'll third it ! :D

Id really appreciate it if someone would create a dog that could do the housework, thanks Sarah x
