Establishing pros and cons of getting pedigree, cross-breed and non-pedigree dogs:
1. Pedigree dogs are usually raised with greatest care, but they are more expensive than cross-breeds.
2. Cross-breeds are generally more hardy than pedigrees, but they’re not always easily available.
3. Non-pedigree dogs are free or inexpensive, but you can’t always be sure that the animal has been properly raised.
