Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed. IN VERMONT Meet Copper (of siblings Lilly & Copper)! More pictures and video below or to come! youtu.be/EuSy42LxsWg Copper is 2 years old, male (approx. DOB 3-4-22), 45 lbs., vetted, is or will neutered and micro-chipped. Hey there! I'm Copper, and I'm a good-looking dog with a heart full of love and a mind that's eager to learn! My foster mom says I'm a perfect gentleman on a routine. I'm potty-trained and love my crate—it's my safe spot for naps and a good night's sleep. I'm also a master of commands! I know Sit, Down, Wait, Paw, and Other Paw and love learning new tricks. Want a loyal, smart companion? That's me! I'm an energy chameleon; I love to relax and cuddle, but if you want to run, I'm ready to take off! I have a beautiful, long stride and would love a safe place to really stretch my legs. I also love playing fetch and have a unique appreciation for gourmet food—my custom diet of raw turkey, fresh veggies, and olive oil keeps me looking and feeling great! I am a bit of a sensitive soul and need someone who understands dog body language. I'm shy around new people and prefer to approach you on my own terms. Please, no sudden movements, loud voices, or reaching out to pet my head—I just need a moment to confirm you're a friend, not a foe! I am a loyal protector of my person, so I need an experienced owner who can give me confidence and clear expectations. I'd love a home with someone who is around a lot and who might have another playful dog to be my pal and guide. I promise to be the most devoted best friend you've ever had! Stay tuned for more information as Copper is a new rescue!

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.
