In reply to the discussion: so our half teacup maltese half teacup yorkie is going into heat [View all]mentalsolstice
(4,460 posts)50. In this case it's mixed breed being bred with a purebred.
How do you feel about a mixed breeding when one of the dogs has a condition that could factor in with surviving pregnancy/birth and could be passed down to her offspring? And mind you, the OP is breeding with looks in mind. In fact the OP dismisses calling the puppies what they'll be, mutts. We're called upon to come up with some cute designer name.
BTW, while I'm a lifelong fan of a certain breed, some the best dogs my family has had were mutts, and there was no need to come up with a cute name for what breeds they were.

As someone who boasts of working in shelters, shame on you for breeding
