Description
Dog Breed: Terrier. This 55-pound sweetheart is the total package—friendly, affectionate, and full of personality. Pocco loves people and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. With his curiosity and high prey drive (he's very interested in the wild rabbits in his foster yard!), a cat-free home would be best. Pocco is a smart boy who already knows commands like “sit,” “paw” (most of the time!), “kennel,” and “in,” and he’s learning “off” and “leave it.” He walks well on a leash, will potty on leash, and is starting to pick up potty cue words. He’s also crate trained and does great overnight, keeping his crate clean nearly every night since arriving in foster care. When Pocco meets new people, he may get excited and ramp up the energy, but he quickly settles into his relaxed, “chill mode.” He gives the best hugs, enjoys lounging in the sun, and stays happy with tough chew toys. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal pup who brings both playful energy and sweet cuddles, Pocco might just be your perfect match!

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.
