Congrats George xxx
What is it with some people and pedigrees??? why do they get on their soap box whenever you tell them you have a cockapoo??? I sometimes dread telling people because you dont know what type of reaction your going to get.Some people should move with the times!!!

Am relatively new to this forum - just saw ''Famous George'' title and was intrigued! Was not aware of his fame but he is most definitely ''Gorgeous George'' in my book. Clooney eat your heart out!

Just read Jacky's post - she obviously has issues. It makes no difference whether you call George a cockapoo or a carrot! He's still gorgeous. I've always had pedigree dogs previously, but to me they were just much loved pets whose parentage I had researched for temperament, health, size etc - just as you most likely have with George. I'm not on Facebook, but if I was I would be very tempted to tell her to grow up, keep her petty irritations to herself and learn some manners. How very rude! Sorry! - was a teacher for many years and hold no truck with such behaviour!

Ive just come back from a country show at chatsworth where Buddy enjoyed himself!!!(eatting lots of poo off the ground yuck!!) Anyway everyone loved Buddy but one lady just wouldnt shut up about mixed breeds(as she called them) and people were stupid paying those prices etc ,in the end me and my husband just had to walk away.

On the odd occasion I meet someone who likes to exclaim - 'well its only a mongrel really...blah, blah, blah'.

I remind them politely, but firmly :), that cross breeds with poodles were first introduced to give blind people who are allergic to dogs the opportunity of owning one and therefore enrich their lives.

I then go onto say that I couldn't own any old dog because I too am allergic, etc. :D

It soon shuts them up and they bluster and backtrack.
