Description
Dog Breed: Flat-coated Retriever / Mixed. Zip is a sweet, resilient pup who’s come a long way after being hit by a car and undergoing hip surgery. He’s fully recovered and now ready to find a forever home filled with love and understanding. Zip is crate trained, does great with a doggy door, and is working on his potty routine—he’ll have an accident if left inside too long without access, but he’s eager to please and thrives on consistency. He gets along well with other dogs and enjoys their company, though he prefers not to share his favorite human when it comes to treats or attention. With gentle redirection and continued guidance, he’s learning to navigate these moments and improve his manners. This affectionate boy absolutely adores his people and wants nothing more than to be close. He’s playful, loving, and full of personality. Zip would do best in a cat-free home and with a family who understands dog behavior and is willing to keep helping him grow into the amazing companion he’s meant to be. If you're looking for a loyal friend who will shower you with love and bring joy to your days, Zip is your guy!

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.
