Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed. IN NEED OF LOCAL FOSTER OR ADOPTER / AVAILABLE FOR FOSTER TO ADOPT Meet Cooper (of siblings Lilly & Cooper)! Cooper is 17 months old, male (approx. DOB 3-4-22), 45 lbs., vetted, is or will neutered and micro-chipped. Lilly and Cooper found themselves in an unfortunate situation when they owner/mom in Kentucky received the devastating news, she has terminal cancer. We watched the posts begging for help from a P4P adopter, who was trying to help her friend know her dogs would be ok. Fast forward, no one stepped up to help by the deadline and the local shelters were at capacity. They had an appt at a vet to be pts. We did step up. Their mom has since passed away, knowing her babies were saved. Now, we need your help to find them forever homes. They are petrified in boarding and confused. Stay tuned for more information as Cooper is a new rescue! If you are interested in adopting Cooper or Lilly and Cooper please fill out an Application at .Passion-4-Paws (please make sure you have the Vermont site not CT) - thanks! Please note Fosters have 1st option of Adoption. Check out his Facebook page (please "Like" us while you are there)! Disclosure: Breed labels are often incorrect: we rarely know the genetic lineage of the dogs we rescue. Many shelters and rescues specify breeds based on appearance; however, research has shown that less than 2% of a dog’s DNA determines appearance! Passion 4 Paws does not practice the use of labels pertaining to compatibility with others or dog breed. Labels such as “dog friendly” and “child friendly” should be used with caution as they often over-simplify the personalities and behavior of dogs.

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.
