Best Answer

The puppies are mutts. Not the dogs who breed together. Unless of course their birth parents are mutts, then they are. But if you bred a dog that was pure bred, with a different breed of pure bred, then the puppies would be considered mutts. Not pure bred.

Another answer:The offspring of two different purebred dogs are crossbreeds, not mutts. "Mutt," like the word "mongrel," implies a dog of indeterminate breeding; in other words, it's lineage is so mixed you can't tell what it is.

How many different kinds of dogs do veterinarians work with?

The American Kennel Club currently recognizes approximately 250 different pure breeds of dogs, so veterinarians work with at least that many.

Basically, if it is a domestic dog, a veterinarian can examine and treat it.

Why are mutts smarter than purebreds?

Pure-breds are selectively bred for various features like size or shape or ear-size or face-shape etc. This process usually involves a lot of in-breeding, changing the genome more and more from the original. A mutt has genes from more than one breed and is therefore geneticly closer to ancestral non-domesticated dogs. (It's more wolf-like). To survive in the wild a wolf needs a certain amount of intelegence, hence mutts are usually smarter than pure-breds.The exception of course is those breeds bred for heightened intelligence, like most breeds bred for sheep-herding.
