Mutt-i-grees Club: Where mongrel is the new pedigree

http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/...ree-club_N.htm

By Sharon L. Peters, Special for USA TODAY
Mutts are getting a whole lot more respect.

Already riding a surge of unprecedented popularity, dogs of mixed or unknown heritage are getting another boost. Whether short-legged, spotted, curly-haired, barrel-chested, pointy-eared or snub-nosed — or a combination of all of them — multi-breed mongrels will be welcomed and extolled at a new registry and Web community launching this week at muttigrees.org.

Gonna play devil's advocate here.................

On one hand - good premise (if it's true that's why they came up with it).

On the other hand - Is this going to be just an excuse for BYB's to charge more for their "Pedigreed" dogs?
