All Dogs Are Purebred | comment |
In Real Life, most dogs (whether stray, feral or pet) are mixed with two or more breeds; this is not so in most fictional universes. In TV shows and movies, the vast majority of dogs and dog characters will be purebred. Even in cases where a purebred dog has a litter with a dog of another breed, the puppies will resemble only one of the parents, often implying that the boys are the ones resembling the father while the girls favor the mother. Needless to say, this is not how dog genetics work. Purebreeds are preferred in the media for a few reasons. In live action works, studios often use multiple animals to play one animal character. This is a lot easier with a purebred dog, since there are many other individual animals that will look almost exactly the same. It's a lot harder to find "doubles" for a mutt that has a more unique appearance. In other cases, studios believe that viewers will respond more positively to a dog of a recognizable breed. Said reason also helps fit into the matter of Breed Stereotypes, in which they want the "girly" dog to be something like a poodle, a "mean" dog to be something like a Rottweiler or doberman, or other dog breeds associated with (that is, bred for) certain traits. Mixed-breed dogs, on other hand, are considered scummy scavengers and largely ignored at best. Use of this trope in media is often criticized for causing pet fads, with certain dog breeds becoming popular after a popular movie or show featuring the breed is released. When that happens, people sometimes try to make a quick buck by breeding as many of the dogs as they can, and they aren't always responsible about it. For instance, the popularity of 101 Dalmatians (and not the breeders who responded to its popularity) is often blamed for many of the genetic problems that occur in Dalmatians today due to inbreeding. This trope rarely occurs with other animals. See also Cartoon Creature for aversions. |

Averted in Roadside Romeo. Except for Charlie Anna (a bulldog), none of the cast appear to be purebred. This is actually rather surprising in Romeo's case, since he started out as the pampered dog of an obviously wealthy family before being abandoned — one might expect such a family to get a pedigreed pet. | |

In Oliver & Company, Fagin's gang are a veritable Five-Token Band of recognizable dog breeds: a Jack Russell terrier, a Great Dane, a chihuahua, an English bulldog, and a saluki. Making this particularly odd is that their owner, Fagin, is a hobo; one wonders where he got them. There's also the Foxworths' poodle Georgette and Sykes' two dobermans. | |

This is the case in Tokyo Jungle. All of the dogs that you can play are purebred including the initial dog you start as in the story, a Pomeranian. This is an odd case as without human intervention pretty much every dog should be a mutt after a few generations. | |

Discworld: Averted with Mr Fusspot in Making Money who, as a rich old lady's pampered pet, you might expect to be a purebred. Instead, when she challenges Moist to identify Mr Fusspot's breed, he correctly says "Er, all of them?" Going Postal subverts this; Moist thinks that some dogs set on him during the postmen's secret society ritual are Lipwigzers, a breed from his homeland that his grandfather raised, and that he can use secret commands on them. Turns out they're Harry King's junkyard dogs and are definitely mutts, with only a bit of Lipwigzer in them. They were just confused by the secret commands he used. |

In the 2012 Littlest Pet Shop series, Zoe is a purebred (and strangely enough, she confuses her own sister with a male stranger, because "all [members of MY OWN BREED] look the same to me"). When Youngmee gets a dog, it's not only a purebred, but an incredibly rare and valuable one. Of all the dogs who have at status listed, only one turns out to be a mutt: Mrs. Biskit's prized show dog, who seems to only have enough 'impurity' to have a minor discoloration of her paw pads. | |

Before that, Lady and the Tramp had the stray dogs in the pound: a chihuahua, a borzoi, a pekingese, a dachshund, a bulldog... and one apparent mutt. Lady herself is a cocker spaniel, the neighbors own a Scottish terrier (with a Scottish accent) and a bloodhound, and Aunt Sarah owns two Siamese cats (cats aren't usually thought of as even having "breeds", but they do and Siamese are probably the most famous). The sequel mixes things up more, with several dogs of ambiguous breed, but even among the group of strays that Scamp falls in with, there's a sheepdog, an Afghan hound, and a Boston terrier. Buster might be a rottweiler, a doberman, or a mix of the two (which, while not recognized by any kennel club, is a popular mix to intentionally breed). | |

All of the non-mutated dogs in 3, including its Dogmeat, look like Australian cattle dogs, a reference to Max's dog in The Road Warrior. The mutated dogs, though suffering from hair loss and some radiations burns, look strangely like pitbulls. New Vegas recycles these two models, modifies the non-mutated dog model to make the cyberdogs (including Rex), and adds in the wolf-like Legion mongrel. | |

The generic, non-mutated dogs in Fallout 4 are rottweilers, albeit with some coat variation. Dogmeat, who has a fully unique model in this game, is a German shepherd. The mongrels and mutant hounds are far more heavily deformed than earlier counterparts, though still recognizably similar to dobermans and bulldogs, respectively. | |

The DOG Island is set in a world of talking dogs, with no humans around. All dogs are still identifiable breeds though, including your Player Character, who can be one of about 50 different dog breeds. Some dog breeds even are portrayed with alterations that normally humans give to dogs, such as docked ears—though those could potentially be excused in-universe as being similar to human body modifications, such as tattoos or piercings. | |

In Dennis the Menace (UK), Gnasher and his pups are all Abyssinian Wire-Haired Tripe-Hounds. It's not mentioned whether their Missing Mom was also a Wire-Haired Tripe-Hound, but the pups are never referred to as mongrels.note In parts of Britain a tripehound is a dismissive and somewhat derogatory term for a scruffy mongrel of uncertain parentage. It's also - for purposes of a childrens' comic - a bowdlerisation of the more demotic shitehound | |

Most dog-like Pokémon are usually based on specific dog breeds (Snubbull and Granbull are Bully Bulldogs, Furfrou is a standard poodle, Lillipup is a Yorkshire terrier), mythological creatures (Arcanine is based on the shisa, Lucario on Anubis), or both (Houndour and especially Houndoom are doberman Hellhounds). However, there are some dog-based Pokémon with traits of multiple breeds, like Eevee evolution line and also the aforementioned Furfrou whose untrimmed form is based on the Afghan Hounds. This trope is kept consistent with the introduction of Fidough and Dachsbun in the ninth generation, being based on dachshund dogs, but also lends itself to a pun by virtue of their being made from what looks to be bakery dough; they're pure bread. |

Felidae is a rare cat example. The majority of the characters have defined breeds. Oddly, the breed known as the European Shorthair seems to be occasionally used to refer to cats that aren't purebred, when the proper term would be Domestic Shorthair/Longhair, or Moggy. It's unknown if this is a translation hiccup, a mistake on the author's part, or intentional, or catbreeding marching on (the series began in 89, many breeds changed since), but it makes it uncertain whether or not all the cats really are purebred. | |

Benji is probably the most famous aversion to this trope, being a mixed-breed shelter dog. In fact, the original producer wanted to use a shelter dog to play Benji in hopes of raising awareness about the plight of abandoned and unwanted dogs. | |

The Pixar film Up has several dogs: one is a Golden Retriever, another is a Doberman, and the rest are all Bulldogs and other "bully breeds." | |

Averted in Survivor Dogs. Almost no non-Leashed Dogs are purebred, and several of the ex-Leashed Dogs (including the protagonist Lucky) were mixes as well. | |

The Bolt Chronicles: Inverted with Bolt and Blaze, who are primarily American White Shepherds but also described in the stories as containing dollops of Berger Blanc Suisse and Hinks Bull Terrier, as well as Tracey, who is a schnauzer-Manchester Terrier mix. Played straight with all the other dogs encountered. | |

In Warrior Cats canon this is averted as no Clan cat has been described as a purebred. Some resemble purebreds, such as how Yellowfang resembles a Persian and Bluestar resembles a Russian Blue, however it's impossible for them to be pure due to the fact they're feral. Even the ex-kittypets all seem to be nondescript mixes. This doesn't stop fans (and even some of the writers) from referring to certain characters as purebreds though. For example, Bluestar is frequently described as a Russian Blue however she has the wrong eye colour (blue instead of green) and isn't from a purebred Russian Blue lineage. | |

The Cheetah Girls: In the books the movie is based on, Galleria's pet dog Toto is a mutt, and a neighbor gets pissed off when Galleria's father allows him to breed with her purebred bichon frise since the resulting puppies are also mixed. In the film, Toto himself is a bichon frise. | |

In Ginga: Nagareboshi Gin, which came before Weed, the trope is somewhat more justified. Many of the characters were dogs bred for hunting who ran away or were abandoned, so it makes sense that most of them would be purebred. | |

Massugu ni Ikou averts this as a plot point: Mametarou feels a lot of anxiety about being a mixed-breed dog when all of his friends are pedigrees. When he finally admits his status to his Cloudcuckoolander girlfriend Hanako, she happily responds, "Then I'll be a crossbreed, too!" Hanako herself is a purebred Kishu Inu, but she brings an interesting wrinkle to the trope that's very much Truth in Television but rarely mentioned in fiction: she's from an old and highly-prized line, but her proportions aren't quite ideal for the breed and so she was removed from the breeding program. It's not too uncommon for breeders in Real Life to do this, keeping only the animals closest to the breed standard and selling the others as pets (often at a much lower price than a "show quality" animal would go for). | |

Dante from Coco is a random street-dog who just happens to be a purebred Xoloitzcuintli, which is a rare and expensive breed. However, the fact that he's in fact a spirit guide makes this a somewhat justified trope. | |

Played with in To the Rescue!. While the different breeds featured are based on popular dog breeds, majority of the dogs that arrive at your shelter are implied to be mixed-breed unless "Purebred" is one of their traits. | |

In Ginga Densetsu Weed, many of the the dog characters are purebred (or were mixed-breeds that appeared to be purebred) despite most of them being born and living in the wild. At least Weed's case, his parents' breeds (Akita and Kishu) look similar enough that Weed's appearance is plausible, while a few other characters are considerably less likely. The art style is also somewhat notorious for making very different breeds look almost alike (Cross is a Saluki, but her overall build is very similar to the Akitas, for example). In Ginga: Nagareboshi Gin, which came before Weed, the trope is somewhat more justified. Many of the characters were dogs bred for hunting who ran away or were abandoned, so it makes sense that most of them would be purebred. |
