Yeah. I never quite understood the preference for purebred. We have have four mutts at our house and they're awesome. There's also that whole hybrid vigour thing associated with cross-breeds. Purebreds often have so many genetic defects from inbreeding.

Is Day a particular breed?

he's an ireland setter according to a vet. some man gave him to my parents in the street as a pup. the man himself thought him to be a cocker spaniel if i remember correctly. he said something in the lines of 'i see that you're good people, please adopt him'.
i prefer mongrels too, although day is a great dog.

Tell the vet that it's impossible to have a black Irish Setter.

Why...of course not. I simply imply he comes from a line of very precicely mixed genetics which stand alone in their superior originality.
