So, what are the facts about health in respect of mixed races on purebred dogs?

I read here that people are saying that mixed breed dogs are healthier and have better temperaments of purebred dogs. I would like to see some facts or statistics. Have you seen any documented studies? What were your results? Where is all this information come from?

The AKC provides information about this topic: http://www.akc.org/breeds/mixed_breeds.cfm http://www.akc.org/press_center/facts_stats.cfm?page=why_purebred As well as Wikipedia: http://en. wikipedia.org / wiki / Dog_hybrids_and_crossbreeds http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed-breed_dog I hope helped. Good Luck in the information. Please take a look at these two links.
