Description
Dog Breed: Cattle Dog / Hound / Mixed. Meet Mikey! A 6 year old hound mix who is a spirited, energetic pup that thrives on adventure and loves being the center of attention. With a personality as big as his energy, Mikey is a playful and affectionate companion to his family—especially when he's around people he knows and trusts. Mikey's ideal day is filled with high-energy activities like fetch, tug-of-war, and long walks on trails where he can explore to his heart's content. While he's content lounging in the backyard or sunbathing when indoors, he's always ready for action, and his exercise needs are high. If you love being outdoors and staying active, Mikey will be your perfect partner. He's crate-trained and house-trained, and he's a good boy when it comes to his daily routine. Mikey is a well-behaved pup at home, but he can get a bit anxious outside his familiar environment, especially around other dogs or unfamiliar people. He's not a fan of dog parks, and interactions with other dogs can be unpredictable, so he'd be happiest in an environment where he's the only pup in the family or with a family that can give him the time and space he needs to feel comfortable.Once he feels secure, he's all love and affection. His family can attest to his sweet side, and Mikey's also quite clever - he knows a few fun tricks, including shake, spin, and roll-over. Mikey is best suited to an active family who can provide him with plenty of exercise and a structured routine. He does well with a fenced-in yard to explore, and he'll need a home where he's the sole pet or with older kids who can respect his boundaries. Mikey would thrive with people who are patient, understanding, and willing to work with his quirks and needs. He's a sweet, loving dog at heart. He's got a ton of personality, and when he's comfortable, he's playful, loyal, and a great companion. If you're an active family looking for a loyal, fun, and loving pet, Mikey might just be the perfect match for you! Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis.

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.
