When I hear about custom made mutts, I think about all the natural mutts at the animal shelter where I got my mystery-dog.
A lot of those critters get euthanized.
There just aren't enough homes for them all.
I'm not going to judge someone for having a custom mutt, but I will mourn for those puppies who didn't get adopted from the pound. (I know that at least one I spent time with was euthanized, and it hit me pretty hard)
ETA: my ex and his wife are puppy-raisers for a service dog organization. Those dogs are intentionally bred mutts. (bred for temperment, not registered breed) I have no problem at all with that kind of mutt breeding, those dogs are not pets and don't horn any shelter-dogs out of a home.
