All dogs should be treated equal, but I guess the reason why people are so anxious over their pure breed dogs is because if it dies they would have wasted their 1 or 2k+ that they paid for it, whereas you can get a mongrel from spca or roadside. Mongrels are hardier too and more likely to recover faster from wounds etc, maybe thats how they feel?

People tend to place the value of a pet depending on how much they bought it for. Like even my parents complain when my bunnies go to the vet, coz they are bought with a cheap price, and till today have cost me around rm 500 in vet bills over these years.....(i can buy 15 local rabbits already) whether worth it or not depends on how much you love your pets, some people dont understand that, and only judge based on price.

Guess the best thing to do is not to simply breed dogs, unless both parents are purebreed, otherwise will result in unwanted animals.
