Description
Dog Breed: Sheep Dog (long coat). ** This is a courtesy post. Gandur is not a Yolo County SPCA foster dog.

Gandur is a smart, social, outgoing dog. Gandur is full of energy and excitement. He loves to meet new people and go on adventures. He is happy and social with everyone. Gandur loves to play fetch and loves to play in water. Gandur’s beautiful coat requires regular trips to the groomer. Gandur is a high anxiety dog and has a hard time settling when the fun is over. He is currently working with a veterinary behaviorist and has started on some medication. He has made great strides while being on medication. Gandur also has cataracts and his vision is limited. That said, he has adapted great to his limited vision and functions almost normally. It is hard to believe he has vision trouble! Gandur loves to play with other dogs and would enjoy a home with a similar-sized playful dog. Gandur has some experience with cats and may do well living with dog-savvy cats with a slow introduction and proper supervision. Gandur is great with children and could be a wonderful addition to a family with dog-savvy kids. Gandur is house and crate trained. He is used to being in a crate when alone and at night. He has no separation anxiety and can settle in his crate. Gandur would be best suited for an active person who would take him out on a lot of adventures. Gandur bonds quickly and will make a great best friend for the right person. If you are looking for a running or hiking partner who is guaranteed to keep you laughing and smiling then Gandur is your guy! ** This is a courtesy post. Gandur is not a Yolo County SPCA foster dog.

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.
