After               three               hours               on               the               Internet               doing               "healthiest               dog"               searches,               which               led               nowhere               but               to               topics               like               "How               to               choose               the               healthiest               puppy               from               a               litter,"               "How               to               keep               your               dog               healthy,"               and               "The               healthiest               dog               foods               for               your               dog."               I               contacted               my               vets'               office.

They               know               me               well               there               because               we               have               a               dachshund               with               allergies.

Over               the               years,               we               have               spent               about               $10,000               on               this               dog               -               from               repeated               office               visits,               anal               gland               removal               (related               to               allergies),               expensive               allergy               tests               (he               is               allergic               to               grass               and               house               dust),               monthly               allergy               shots,               and               Depo               shots               every               3               weeks,               which               seem               to               give               him               allergy               relief.
               He               is               now               12               years               old,               which               is               the               maximum               lifespan               listed               for               dachshunds               in               the               ASPCA               Guide               to               Dogs.

However,               The               Encyclopedia               of               the               Dog,               by               Bruce               Fogle,               first               published               in               Great               Britain               in               1995,               gives               the               life               expectancy               of               "14               to               17               years."               What's               the               difference?
               That's               what               I               set               out               to               discover.

The               vets'               receptionist               knows               me,               but               she               was               really               hesitant               about               asking               the               3               vets               to               give               me               a               list               of               the               "top               10               healthiest               dogs"               which               I               could               recommend               to               pet               buyers/adopters.

She               said               to               give               her               a               few               days.

I               e-mailed               my               vet               directly,               and               he               told               me               to               check               out               the               online               AKC               site.

I               e-mailed               back               and               said               I               had,               and               they               only               suggested               one               breed,               of               which               I               had               never               heard               or               seen:               the               Portuguese               Podengo               Pequeno.
               My               vet               called               me.

(As               I've               noted,               we've               probably               helped               pay               for               his               newest               car               with               our               dog's               vet               bills.)               He               said               the               three               of               them               (office               vets)               made               separate               lists               and               only               overlapped               on               a               couple               breeds.

I               said,               "So               give               me               those               and               I'll               have               three               to               write               about."               He               hesitated               and               laughed.

He               said               dogs               were               so               different;               they               see               every               breed               and               every               kind               of               problem;               it               was               hard               to               be               specific.

I               mentioned               our               frequent               problems               with               PJ;               and               if               we               ever               got               another               dog,               health               would               be               a               top               priority.
               Then,               he               gave               me               a               gem               of               a               quote:               "Well,               if               you               want               healthy,               get               a               mutt."
               I               realized               that               was               not               a               flip               or               cutesy               answer.

It               is               probably               the               truth.
               Back               to               the               only               dog               I               could               find               as               one               of               the               healthiest               breeds               on               record:               the               Portuguese               Podengo               Pequeno,               which               was               recorded               in               the               AKC               Foundation               Stock               Service               in               2004.

The               National               Club               began               in               2008.

As               of               March               16,               2010,               there               were               350               Pequenos               in               the               U.S.

The               dogs               range               from               about               8               to               12.5               inches               tall;               weigh               about               8               to               14               pounds;               and               come               in               two               coat               colors.
               The               other               breed               I               found               with               few               health               problems               is               the               "Coton               de               Tulear,"               which               look               similar               to               the               better-known               Maltese.

Coton               lovers               created               a               petition               at               the               petitionsite.com               to               gain               signatures               to               prevent               their               breed               from               coming               under               the               control               of               the               AKC,               because,               according               to               the               petition,               "There               seems               to               be               a               widespread               decline               in               the               health               of               breeds               which               become               registered               by               the               AKC."
               While               researching               "mutts,"               I               came               across               this               quote               in               Wikipedia.

"Healthy               traits               have               been               lost               in               many               purebred               dogs               lines               because               many               breeders               of               show               dogs               are               more               interested               in               conformation               -               the               physical               attributes               of               the               dogs               in               relation               to               the               breed               standard               -               than               in               the               health               and               working               temperament               for               which               the               dog               was               originally               bred."
               Aha!

A               light               bulb               moment.

That               brings               to               mind               a               comment               made               by               one               of               the               dog               trainers               I               worked               with               when               I               did               dog               rescue.

He               was               looking               online               at               German               Shepherds               -               in               Germany.

He               said,               "I               am               saving               up               to               get               one               of               these               great               dogs."               I               said               they               looked               like               the               old               Rin-Tin-Tin               Shepherd               pictures,               and               they               didn't               have               the               crouching               posture               you               see               in               most               purebreds               today.

He               said,               "No,               they               don't,               because               American               Shepherds               are               bred               as               deformed               cripples               to               conform               to               standard."               He               said               Shepherds               are               known               for               hip               dysplasia               problems,               and               the               breeding               standards               played               into               the               problem.

He               expected               to               pay               $4,000               or               more               for               a               "good               Shepherd"               from               Germany.
               Things               are               beginning               to               add               up:               The               lack               of               any               kind               of               list               of               "healthiest               breeds";               the               vet's               reluctance               (or               inability)               to               offer               suggestions               of               the               healthiest               breeds;               and               the               trainer's               disgust               at               the               Americanized               standard               of               a               formerly-graceful               breed               that               has               been               ruined               by               inbreeding.
               Wikipedia               says,               "The               theory               of               hybrid               vigor               suggests               that,               as               a               group,               dogs               of               varied               ancestry               will               be               healthier               than               their               purebred               counterparts."
               When               you               have               an               average               life-span               discrepancy               between               continents               of               4               to               7               years               (10-12               vs.

14-17)               in               a               breed               (dachshund),               you               can               deduce               the               difference               is               not               due               to               better               vet               care               or               better               dog               food.

You               have               to               suspect               a               breeding               problem.
               We               all               know               what               the               term               purebred               means:               intentionally               bred               dogs               of               similar               appearance               over               generations.

Cross-breeds               can               be               simple               crosses               of               two               different               purebreds,               like               cockapoos               and               labradoodles.

Some               people               think               crosses               from               purebreds               are               prestigious,               but               those               crosses               can               still               carry               the               negative               breeding               traits.

According               to               Wiki,               the               real               mixes               are               the               "random-bred"               dogs               that               carry               on               the               traits               of               two               or               more               breeds               or               dogs               with               genetic               traits               that               can               be               traced               back               to               feral               or               pariah               dog               populations.
               True               mutts,               mongrels,               mixed               breeds,               or               "Heinz               57"               types               are               more               genetically               diverse,               and               the               pups               from               such               a               breeding               often               take               on               the               healthiest               traits               of               both               parents               and               create               a               "healthier               dog."
               According               to               Wiki,               from               studies               done               in               Germany,               Sweden,               North               America               and               Denmark,               mongrels               have               a               "health               advantage."               They               consistently               showed               less               need               for               vet               care               and               were               less               prone               to               many               diseases.

In               fact,               from               North               American               vet-teaching-hospitals'               studies,               "The               median               age               at               death               was               8.5               years               for               all               mixed               breed               dogs,               and               6.7               years               for               all               pure               breed               dogs."
               The               age-old               wisdom               applies:               If               you               want               a               good,               sturdy,               all-around               healthy,               happy               dog               with               few               vet               problems,               find               a               mutt               at               your               nearest               shelter.

Save               a               life:               get               a               dog               with               lower-risk               health               problems               and               the               best               chance               at               "hybrid               vigor."
