Mixed-breed dogs, often called "hybrid dogs," are generally considered healthier than purebred dogs due to greater genetic diversity, which reduces the risk of inheriting certain genetic diseases. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Genetic Diversity: Mixed-breed dogs inherit genes from multiple breeds, leading to a wider range of genetic makeup. Reduced Risk of Inherited Diseases: This genetic diversity can help prevent or dilute the expression of certain inherited health problems that are common in specific purebred lines. Examples of Health Benefits: Mixed breeds are less likely to develop conditions like hip dysplasia, cataracts, and hypothyroidism, which are prevalent in some purebred dogs. Temperament: Mixed breeds may also exhibit more balanced temperaments, as they are less likely to inherit extreme behavioral traits associated with certain purebred dogs. Hybrid Vigor: The concept of "hybrid vigor" suggests that crossbreeding can lead to offspring that are healthier and more robust than their purebred parents. We have raised Toy Puppies for over 35 years. We pride ourselves in raising happy healthy well rounded social puppies. When our puppies go home at/after 10/12 weeks, they will have had their first 2/3 vaccinations and have had the age appropriate worming. We also send home a folder of specific care and training information. A very detailed vaccination record outlining what they have had and what they still need to finish their very important puppy series. All our puppies are also microchipped. A baby blanket Mom and siblings have played with to help lessen the stress of the transition of going to their new home and a couple of their favorite toys. We give a 2 year guarantee and life time support on our puppies. We do have an adoption contract and require our puppies be spayed/neutered. The puppies go home at/after 10 weeks, providing I am happy with their progress. There is a lot of information in the puppy packet we send home with the puppies. I feel that the better informed new puppy parents are the better chance of everything going smoothly and the puppy having a happy forever home. There are many references in the guest book on the website. Beware of low priced puppies offered without a contract or guarantee as most of those have received little to no medical care or socialization. An 8+ week old puppy that has not had any vaccinations is at great risk to parvo and the other horrible puppy diseases.
