The weirdest thing to me is the fact that some people who claim to "love dogs", are involved in h@te groups for doodles and other breeds... like what?! 🤦‍♀️

Read moreAs someone who has always been passionate about dogs, I've noticed a troubling trend where people who claim to love dogs still participate in communities that criticize certain breeds, like doodles or mutts. It’s ironic because loving dogs should mean embracing the unique qualities and charms of every breed, including mixed breeds often lovingly called mutts. In my experience, mutts tend to have wonderful temperaments and health advantages due to their diverse genetic backgrounds. For example, many mutts I've known have been smarter, healthier, and more adaptable than some purebreds. I’ve even had friends who initially hesitated to adopt mutts but later found these dogs to be the most loyal and loving companions. The phrase "Your dog's a mutt" is sometimes used negatively, but I see it as a badge of honor. Mutts represent resilience, diversity, and the beauty of not fitting into a single mold. When people engage in h@te groups targeting specific breeds, it undermines the core value of loving dogs unconditionally. Moreover, the dog community benefits massively from fostering inclusiveness. Campaigns and hashtags like #alldoglivesmatter remind us that breed shouldn't define the love or respect a dog deserves. From rescue organizations to local park meetups, encouraging acceptance of all breeds helps break down unnecessary barriers. If you’re a #dogmom or a dog lover, try to focus on the happiness and health of your pet rather than conforming to breed snobbery. Embrace mutts and doodles alike—they bring just as much joy and companionship. Love isn’t about pedigree, it’s about the bond we share with our furry friends.
