Or a Great Dane crossed with a Pyrenean Mountain Dog that chases Lance Armstrong through the French Alps and rips off his yellow jersey? No, I'm sorry but America will never accept the hybrid of a Portuguese Water Dog and a Mexican Hairless that pees on the carpet in the Oval office to protest the treatment of illegals. I mean the new names alone could pose a problem. The hybrid of a Bearded Collie and an Australian Shepherd could logically be called the all-new Amish Working Dog.

Congratulations ! ,/ Love, your family 4,1 -- 1 it's because I spent some time in Key West, Florida in the 90s where a lot of unofficial crossbreeding was being introduced: In 1993, "Rocky the Chihuahua" — I'm not making this up — was charged with impregnating a purebred Rottweiler. The owner/breeder of the Rottweiler (let's just call that dog "Strumpet") was so incensed that her dog's pedigree had been tarnished, she launched a civil suit against the owner of Rocky. I can only imagine the resulting hybrid. A Rottchi would be a big, of friendly dog that speaks two offi- cial languages. Anyway, the law suit was eventually dropped and the Key West Chamber of Commerce named "Rocky" Overachiever of the Year. Earlier that same year in Key West — I could not/ would not make this up — "Chi Chi," a pot belly pig was charged with sexually assaulting a parked Harley- Davidson motorcycle. The pig's defense? Poor eye- sight. He thought the Harley was "just another hog." Can you imagine that hybrid? A feisty little porker with a mullet that's great on the barbeque except for the rear end which is made of chrome. No this hybrid craze just naturally has to stop before the mutts of this world get organized and hire themselves a lawyer. Graduated July 5th from D'arcy Lane Institute with a diploma in massage therapy. She has since completed Provincial testing and will receive her certification as an RMT.
