poodlefan Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Someone enquiring about a puppy has just said that they have a 3 yr old Moddle !!! Excuse my ignorance but I cannot even think what that might be . . . My guess is "moodle" - maltese cross poodle. Allegedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Flying Furball Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I think you may mean "moodle" and it is a crossbreed dog, designer dog, poodle cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W Sibs Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 (edited) Lady at a park has firmly (and sternly) tried to educate me that a maltese x poodle is a maltipoo. She as a purebred Maltipoo I told her that her dog is a Poo and she hasn't spoken to me since. Regardless what it is.. it's a mutt.

Bisart Dobes Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 Maybe they meant Muddle ??? I'm going to risk annoying them and ask - don't want to offend as they have decided to go the pure bred choice this time . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha bet Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 If they meant a 'muddle' - isnt that what you are in Harry Potter if you dont have magical powers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandra777 Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 If they meant a 'muddle' - isnt that what you are in Harry Potter if you dont have magical powers I thought that was a muggle? - which would be a Maltese x Pug wouldn't it Bisart - I think they mean the dog is a small white fluffy creature purchased from a pet shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brightonrock Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 If you google moddle it looks like they mean maltese x toy poodle. In other words almost certainly puppy farm white fluffy. Why can't people call these dogs/puppies, heinz 57, mongrels, mixed breeds or cross breeds like they used to ? Why have people got so dumb ?

tdierikx Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Most rescues don't advertise their charges with the fancy petshop type names... I'm guessing that those who have bought these crossbreeds elsewhere for ludicrous sums of money want to perpetuate that they have something special because they don't want to admit they paid way too much money for a somewhat ill bred mutt... *grin* T.

Nahla + Teddy's Mum Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Well I actually have 2 "Spoodles" but I only call them that because saying cocker spaniel x toy poodle is just too long! Were Aussies! We give everything nicknames and thats all I see it as, I know my dogs are not pure breed dogs and I dont pretent they are its just easier to say and these day's people know exactly what I mean so I dont even have to correct myself. I dont think it matters what breed your dog is, it matters how you take care of them and the life you give them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are perpetuating the incorrect belief that "spoodles" are a real breed. You should make the effort to explain to people they crossbreeds.
