Description
Dog Breed: Black Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Looking for mature, tall, dark and handsome-well here he is- REX!!! Oh my, this is just about the sweetest boy ever! Rex survived a horrible house fire that killed one owner and critically injured another. He then was confiscated and turned into BARC where he ended up on the euthanasia list along with his siblings. How wrong is that??? So thanks to amazing volunteers we were able to get Rex and the rest of his family to safety. Rex has been checked out by our vets and was the best boy all through his exam. We have aspirated a couple of bumps, hoping they are just old age bumps. His teeth are pretty gnarly but no infection or painful sites so we will keep a careful eye on them. Because his teeth are in such bad shape it is impossible to accurately age him. We would definitely say 10+. If you are interested in fostering or adopting this amazing boy and giving him ALL the love he deserves please complete the proper application at .scoutshonor . Scout’s Honor covers all costs associated with fostering.

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.
