Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Spot is one of several hounds in our shelter wishing to find a home. he is very timid, and cows in the corner until he gets outside and then he turns into Mr. compatibility, playful and happy and fun loving. What a sweetheart he is! Spot is working on his housetraining skills and would love tp have a family guide him on the finer points. He really comes into his own when he is outside with other dogs, romping and playing. he appears to be afraid of the activity level of children, so we think he’s probably not been exposed to young kids.

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.
