英国皇家兽医学院的一项大规模研究发现,设计杂交犬 (如,拉布拉杜尔和卡瓦普) 没有明显的健康优势. A large-scale study by the UK's Royal Veterinary College found no significant health advantages for designer cross-breed dogs such as Cockapoos, Labradoodles, and Cavapoos over their purebred counterparts. 这项研究调查了9 402名这些交叉血族及其母种的联合王国所有者,发现这两个群体都有类似的疾病风险。 The research surveyed 9,402 UK owners of these crossbreeds and their parent breeds, discovering a similar risk of disease for both groups. 与众人所认为的相反,交叉血亲并不总是比纯种人更健康,建议所有者应集中关注具体的健康问题、繁殖规模和对生活方式的行为需要。 Contrary to popular belief, crossbreeds were not found to always be healthier than purebreds, suggesting owners should concentrate on specific health issues, breed size, and behavioral needs for their lifestyle.
