Mongrel?

[lisajack]

I`m thinking of buying a puppy which is chihuahua x jack russell x yorkshire terrier. Does this make it a jackchi or a mongrel? It cost �350. Is this a fair price?

Depends on how much you want the pup.

Because it is a 'handbag-dog' they're very desirable with lots of people.

This mixed breeding sounds like high-maintenance.......

What ever they call them these dogs are still mongrels and I'm old enough to remember when people used to give mongrels away. Still so long as the puppies go were they loved and looked after i don't suppose it matters what they cost or are called

Like paddywak I can remember when mongrels were 'free to good homes' Also I have never heard of anyone paying for a Jack Russell until the last couple of years. I would say �350 is daylight robbery but if you can afford it and can give the dog a loving happy home then its up to you.

Sounds cute. I'd pay that and give it a good home.

That sound like it would be a v. yappy dog!! as others have said its basicly a mongrel and I wouldnt pay that when you can give a home to a mongrel from a resue centre. but its your choice! Good Luck

sounds like one crazy ass dog lol but like sammc said there are loads at a rescue centre that need good homes I rescued one staffy bitch from our local centre and she is the most fabulous dog I have ever owned but as long as the pup is loved then go for it a dog is always pleased to see you always there to give you a hug, but be warned puppies need lots of attention dedication and hard work to get them trained I had a hell of a job training my last pup to go outside for a wee but we got there in the end.
Good luck and enjoy your pup should you decide to buy him/her
