That's bogus propaganda. Mixed breeds have the same health issues that purebred dogs do.

This is why I am really torn about getting a Corgi. I just love everything about these little dogs, but I don't quite know if one would be good for our family.

Well Chris' Charlie has just discovered baby birds - you can read her post and dilemma on that. I have several corgis that believe it is their job to clear the yard of intruding birds, and they have caught one or two. It isn't that a corgi couldn't work, but it will take A LOT of intensive training and diligence on everyone's part.
