Description
Posted Breed: Hound / Mixed. Sammy's transformation has been absolutely amazing to witness! From an incredibly rough start to a perfectly clean bill of health, this gorgeous boy is now ready for a loving home. Sammy came to Oklahome in February 2023 after being found dumped in Rural Oklahoma. He was extremely malnourished, riddled with infections, and had multiple wounds covering his body. To make matters worse, the vet discovered that he was heart worm positive. It took months of intensive treatment and recovery that included special medicated baths, multiple medications, and cage rest after his heartworm treatment, but today Sammy is a perfectly healthy and happy and healthy boy! Sammy is good with kids, but can be selective with dogs, so he is best as a single pet. He is completely potty and crate trained and he would make an excellent companion for someone who is looking for a resilient and loyal friend to be their one and only.

Breed overview

Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
