It is fairly common knowledge that due to inbreeding, purebred dogs are often subject to various genetic maladies such as hip dysplasia. Mongrels, with their diverse DNA background, are far less prone to these ailments. In addition, these ordinary mutts also get still another advantage--they generally have a lifespan which exceeds that of their snotty aristocratic "I have papers" cousins by about ten percent.
