Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Shepherd / Mixed. Birthdate: 01/02/2021 Breed: One of a kind Weight: 83.2 lbs Imagine a lovable whirlwind of enthusiasm wrapped in fur—that’s Duke. This goofy, grinning sweetheart is the most endearing “bull in a china shop” you’ll ever meet, charging through life with a heart full of love and a tail that wags like it’s powered by joy itself. Duke is the definition of happy-go-lucky. Whether he’s going for a walk, chasing after toys, or simply leaning into your side for snuggles, he’s just thrilled to be part of the moment. Give him attention, and you’ll see his whole world light up. Pause for too long, though, and you might get a gentle nudge (or a not-so-subtle reminder) that love is meant to be a full-time activity. His exuberance is matched only by his sweetness. He’s affectionate, playful, and always ready to spread a little sunshine wherever he goes. And while his excitement sometimes gets the best of him, Duke settles down quickly—usually right next to you, tail thumping and eyes full of adoration. This boy is so smart , he knows several commands. He knows sit, come and “ leave it”, we are working on “ shake” now. Duke would do best with a fun, active family with dog experience, as well as adult children, just due to his size and strength. This handsome guy has a heart of gold, a tail that never stops wagging, and a personality that never stops making you smile. If you’re looking for a cheerful companion with a big heart, an even bigger personality, and a tail that just can’t quit, Duke is ready to bounce his way into your life—and your lap. Walk-ins are welcome! Stop by during our open hours to meet our available dogs!! Before you can adopt, please complete an adoption questionnaire on our website at pawscrossedny/dog-adoption-questionnaire. If you have any questions, please email us at adoptionspawscrossedny for more information. Please understand that we cannot hold any pets. All adoptions are done on a first come, first adopt basis for pre-approved applicants. The Shelter software system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of our dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We encourage you to select your new companion by considering each dog's individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on a breed label that is only a guess.

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.
