Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Topher is still searching for his special someone! This sweet, goofy boy has a rare spinal condition that left him with a little “hump,” but it certainly doesn’t stop him from being full of love. Topher needs a calm, low-energy home where he can stay safe and comfortable. While his condition currently doesn’t require medication, he does take a daily joint supplement and will need an adopter who can provide regular vet care — and be prepared for any extra care he may need down the road. ????? Sadly, the shelter environment just isn’t what’s best for him — the cement floors and constant activity make it hard for him to relax. What Topher truly deserves is a cozy home, soft bed, and a loving family who will help him thrive. He loves beach days, gets along well with other dogs, and is always ready to share his goofy, lovable personality. If you think you can give Topher the comforting and happy home he needs, please call 843-249-4948 to schedule a meet & greet, or submit an application at humanesocietynmb/dog-adoption-form/ Topher is a social butterfly who instantly makes friends with everyone! His positive energy is infectious. Topher is also a goofball and will keep you smiling every day. Topher has a congenital condition affecting his spine; while the spine is supposed to be in a straight line, his is wedge shaped. Topher will need a dedicated adopter who can help him manage his condition with routine vet care and lots of love. Because he needs to avoid high-impact activity to protect his spine, Topher would thrive with someone who can provide plenty of mental stimulation and enrichment activities to keep him calm and content. Topher is very social and happy. If you are interested in fostering Topher, please submit a foster application at humanesocietynmb/be-a-foster-caregiver/

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.
