Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Barney is a sweet, shy boy with a heart full of love-he's just waiting for the right person to help him find his confidence. Sudden noises and new experiences can make him nervous, but underneath that timid exterior is a curious pup eager to learn that the world isn't so scary. He may not rush into your arms, but give him time, and he'll show his appreciation with little tail wags and the softest, most heartwarming moments. He loves toys, rolling onto his back for a good stretch, and nothing makes him happier than being around other dogs. A home with a confident canine friend would do wonders for Barney, helping him come out of his shell at his own pace. Barney will need a patient adopter who understands helping him gain confidence will take time, but the reward of watching him blossom will be beyond worth it.

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.
